F1 2001 & Momo wheel activity at center

I'm curious, when my brand-spankin' new Momo is at center while on the track, it seems to jitter around quite a bit. And when I'm driving in a straight line, the wheel wants to strongly pull left or right, depending on which side of center I'm struggling to hold it at (in other words, it feels like it wants to be anywhere else but dead center.) This is making it quite hard to drive needless to say. I've read all posts on here containing the word 'momo' in the subject, and I seem to have missed the post for ideal settings in the .plr file for the Momo. Could someone with some patience post as many of the ideal settings as you can? (e.g. wingman profiler settings, any config file settings, in-game F1 2001 settings, etc.) Thank you kindly in advance.

Most likely you just need to set the force feedback strength (in F1 2001) to a negative number instead of positive. Or if you already have it set to negative, try positive instead. ;o) "doubleu" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:0aTT7.87218$[email hidden]... > I'm curious, when my brand-spankin' new Momo is at center while on the > track, it seems to jitter around quite a bit.

Go to EA and get the advanced options doc, here's the link: http://common.ea-europe.com/f12k1/f12001advanced.zip This has settings for Logitech. The engine idle setting (I believe it's called throttle vibe) causes too much vibration while idling in the default set-up. I have a Momo and it is decent using default FF settings (but shakes too much while idling) but great using the recommended settings in this document. -- Joe Marques "doubleu" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:0aTT7.87218$[email hidden]... > I'm curious, when my brand-spankin' new Momo is at center while on the > track, it seems to jitter around quite a bit.

Thanks Joe, that made a big difference, the only thing I don't like about F1 2001 is the way the steering wheel 'loads up' and you try to turn against it, only to find that you spin out if you are not careful. Irritating, but I guess that may be what F1 driving is like. Tsunami Once upon a time "Joe Marques" <[email hidden]> scribed carefully:

Also, setting deadzone in F1 2001 on 1% for the x-as got mostly rid of the jittering with my momo. Andre

You're welcome. -- Joe Marques "doubleu" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:oQ5U7.94116$[email hidden]... > excellent, thank you! >

You're welcome. I haven't noticed the loading up thing. I do spin often enough, I'm just not surprised by it. ;0) What's your FF setting in the profiler and the game? I'm at 100% in the profiler and -100% in the game (or actually minus 6500 or 7000 when I tweak the settings). Perhaps your profiler force is too high? I also go with 0% damper in the profiler. -- Joe Marques "Tsunami" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Thanks Joe, > that made a big difference, the only thing I don't like about F1 2001 > is the way the steering wheel 'loads up' and you try to turn against > it, only to find that you spin out if you are not careful.

You're welcome Andre. I'll try setting my dead zone to 1%, I think I'm currently at 0%. BTW, do you use 0% dead zone in the profiler? I'm at 0% dead zone and 100% sensitivity in the wingman profiler. I'm using this as a base setting so I can do all tweaking in the F1 file. -- Joe Marques "Andre Warringa" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > On Wed, 19 Dec 2001 04:39:29 GMT, "Joe Marques" > <[email hidden]> wrote: > > >Go to EA and get the advanced options doc, here's the link: > > > >http://common.ea-europe.com/f12k1/f12001advanced.zip > > Thanks for the tip Joe.

I don't use the profiler.. I have 0% deadzone in windows (with dxdeadzone) and use 1% on the x-as in F1 2001. I read this tip on the High Gear forum and to my surprise it actually worked, most of the spikes are gone now. Andre

Can someone re-post the settings for the Momo? Somewhere along the line, the settings have been dropped out from the RE's.

Try turning speed sensitivity down to 10% and also X-axis to about 10-30% depending on your wheel...
