Wingman FF 3.25

5 posts by 4 people · 29 Jul 1999 - 04 Aug 1999

I've seen a 3.25 patch mentioned but I can only find 3.20 at the Logitech web site. I was adjusting the percent, changing values in Core.ini and using DXTWEAK. I still can't feel weight transfer very well and notice nothing when changing gears. I'm wondering if it is because I have 3.20 and not 3.25.

To get 3.25 you need to run the update program from within the Logitech Profiler software. I have version 3.25 installed and have followed all the setting changes to the letter from www.simracingmag.com and I also feel no weight transfer or gear changes. However, the setting changes did seem to help my steering to be more responsive and precise. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get GPL FF to perform in the way it has been described in r.a.s and elsewhere.

Don, Thanks. I have version 3.25 installed and have followed all the So we are in the same boat, but with different patches. The weight transfer was one of the main things I wanted to get. I wish I knew why others get this and we don't. Are you using USB? I'm not using it but that might not be the problem. David
I use the 3.25 patch and I don't feel gear changes. This is with USB. I do believe I'm feeling weight transfer, however. I think people mistakenly believe the "surge" of what is weight transfer during gear changes is the "thunk" of a gear change itself. If gear changes are modeled you should be able to feel them if you change gears while the car is sitting still. I don't feel anything in this situation. The only time I feel anything while shifting is when the car is moving--and not much there, even if I manage to shift very smoothly. This is what i *think* is weight transfer, but maybe I'm wrong. At any rate the FF turns the already wonderful GPL experience into something truly amazing. Jerry Morelock

Weight transfer - is that this thingie that pulls your wheel left and right on the straight due to the slacky steering/front axle? If so, it works perfectly also in 3.20 Jens On Thu, 29 Jul 1999 12:03:08 -0400, "David Roderick" >So we are in the same boat, but with different patches.
