  • So to get a high quality wheel with pedals and shifter that works with XB1 and PCs I need to spend around £1300!!! Could buy the Thrustmaster TX with pro 3 pedal setup and shifter for less than half the price!!! I have the CSR wheel with elite pedals but no longer have my 360, only XB1 and my PC. Pretty poor show, if it was easy to make a hub for XB1 then why not make a stand alone wheel? Clearly you have the required tech to do it. Something that was actually accessible to more people would surely be a better? All you have succeeded in doing is scaring off return custom, from me and I would imagine a lot of others, GOOD JOB FANATEC!
    I think they do intend on a stand alone wheel and as for what you described as a package your take on it is a good chance different then the next guy to come along.

    Thomas said they will make X1 products for all budgets. Be patient. IMO the Fanatec ClubSport package is worth at least 4x the TX. So I'm fine with the cost. But everyone has their own budget and likes/dislikes. So if you like the TX that's all that matters.

  • Just had a reply, there going to ship it on the 28th so this will be probbly be next week some time :((

    You get what you pay for, some of us don't want plastic crap wheels like TM make.  Something for people that want higher end is better, like you pointed out there is already cheap entry level crap available. You also couldn't be more wrong as the V2 is constantly on back order so nobody is "scared off"
  • Looks like SMS purposely fudged AMD performance, I shouldn't get the same performance as a R290x with a 7870. Doubt any of that DLC will sell to AMD GPU users unless they un-fudge it. Either they're crappy devs or they did it on purpose, take your pick . Wonder how much nvidia paid them to do it?

    Hi Stephen,
    thanks for your Info about the shippment of the XBox One Hub. Where are you located?
    I'm located in Germany and i hope, because i ordered with express delivery, that the Hub will arrive on the 29th... I also send a Mail to the Customer Support. If i get a feedback i'll let you know.
  • HI Sebastian, i'm from the UK. Would be nice if i get to use it this weekend. Finally means i can play PCars. Gamepad for me makes it unplayable.

    First update your controller by going to the xbox settings by pressing start on home screen, controller, update (must be plugged in)


    press start in p cars and go to options, controls

    SET MODE 3 FIRST! —- this is at the bottom of the options

    Steering Deadzone - 20%

    Steering Sensitivity - 5%

    Throttle Deadzone - 0% 

    Throttle Sensitivity - 10%

    Braking Deadzone - 0%

     Braking Sensitivity - 10%

    Clutch Deadzone - 5% cx

    Clutch Sensitivity - 45%

    Speed Sensitivity - 75%

    Controller Filtering Sensitivity - 25%

    Mode = 3

    Advanced options = All set to ON ****EXCEPT FOR OPPOSITE LOCK HELP, Turn that off!

    ******Next go to game play options and make sure all braking steering assists are off etc.



    This makes the game way more playable on remote, but still you can tell it begs for a wheel.

    Grimey Dog Has Finally Solved the Mystery of the Heavy Lazy PS4 PCars FFB!!!.YESSS!!!
    Nope I will Not Be Posting these again!!!. But i will be Using these Settings to Kick Some Ass in PCars ...a Good wheel Tune is the Key to Victory!!! The Game Feels Great Now!!! Take this and Run with it!!!
  • Be interesting to see if these will work on the xbox. but expect the xbox to be patched by the time we get our hubs.
  • Thnx Grimey I'll try to add the Bleed to Spades settings and see what it gives. And only if it feels to strong I'll tune down FFB to 75%.

    You guys are killing me. Dying to get my wheel !!! I hate playing with the pad

    Antoine Goosen the PDF is Screwed Up!!! They Have the Relative Bleed Setting Defined as a Matter of How MuchTime your wheel Willndeliver Abdolute Torque before it Bleeds it Off... So because we want instant Reaction time we will set it to .01 They Described it Wrong!!! The Bleed adjust is the Measurement or % of Torque that will be Bled Off as a Result of Changes to Enviroment Hard Left into Soft Right or Loss of Grip!!! That Bleed Off is what Gives you the Road Feel or Feeling of Weight Transfer!!! Try it on the Cleo and BMW with Stock Car tune!!! All your Car Tunes will Need to be Re-adjusted But you Will Run Better Laps Due to Better Road Feel. ... Without the Higher Bleed Settings the Wheel Feels Heavy and Lazy Because it is Absolute Torque All the Time.

    I Chose to Test in the Cleo because its Front wheel Drive and the Tail end Loves to Step out due to Cold tires but I Could Clearly Feel what the Cleo was Doing Every Loss of Grip and i was able to Quickly Counter Steer to Correct My driving Line when i Lost Grip!!! I was able to Really Push the Car!!!

    The FFB Tuning PDF is Not Accurate when it Describes How some of the Settings Work!!!

    I will Make a List and Submit it to SMS and ask that they Better Define these Settings.
    if the FFB PDF was Accurate and Clear about what the Settings Really Do they Could Cut the FFB Complaints Down a Great Deal!!!

    These settings Should work for XBox + or - on the Mains Depending on what wheel you use... The Mains May Have to Be Reduced to avoid FFB Clipping on Some wheels.
    They Should work on the CSR and PWTS wheels also but the Feel will benDiff because My CSR E Does Not Deliver Subtle Road FFB like My V2
  • You should never turn the FFB on the wheel itself below 100, you do it on the in game FFB strength setting. If you turn it down on the wheel itself you will lose some lesser effects.
  • edited May 2015
    I Dunno about that... on Console I Run the Games at 100% Because i want the Game to put out 100% FFB effects... The wheel is only the amplifier it will put out what ever is sent to it at what ever Magnification you like up to its Max output.... Seems that you Risk Loosing More FFB Effects Cutting it Down at the Source/Game Settings.
    So Console for Me is 100% FFB out put at Source/Game settings and Set the wheel to where FFB Feels Comfortable to me.
    PCars Maybe the First Console Game that Has FFB Strong Enough to Cause FFB Clipping... But I Tweeked the Settings Behind the Masters that FFB Clipping is Not a Issue.

    Only on PC do i Turn the FFB Down at the Source/Game Settings Because OC FFB has always been Much Stronger.

  • Servus Thomas, morgen ist ja der 28.5 und laut der Webseite geplantes Lieferdatum. Ist das, dass Datum des Versands oder der Lieferung? und mit welchem Transportunternehmen versendet Ihr. DHL liefert ja auch am Samstag?

    Im Übrigen fände ich es super wenn Ihr ein Neben-Forum bauen könntet bei dem Ihr (nehme an Ihr testet und spielt auch fleißig), die Fans und Tester die besten Einstellungen im Spiel (z.B. Project Cars, Forza, PC-Rennspiele usw.) posten würden mit entsprechend vorgegebenen Rahmen, damit die Infos einigermaßen ordentlich sind.

    Viele Grüße, Alexander

  • Thnx Grimey for the settings! Really eagerly awaiting my Hub...have everything prepared ;P. Btw the 1.3 patch for Project Cars is going to be released the 29th...(keeps fingers crossed). It should also solve an issue with the Fanatec wheel...quote: 'Fixed the issue with steering jolts that some users experience'

    Btw how's the testing Natalie? ;P

    Hi Alexander,
    ich denke mal Thomas kann den ganzen Posts in diesem Forum nicht folgen.
    Was aber bereits der ein oder andere Vorbesteller auf Nachfrage beim Kundensupport als Antwort bzgl. des Versandtermins erhalten hat ist, dass der Versand wohl Ende Mai erfolgt. Der 28.05 ist wohl somit recht realistisch.
    Ich habe gerade mal auf meinen letzten Fanatec Boxen nachgesehen, und ich habe überall einen UPS Aufkleber mit UPS Saver gefunden. Mit Glück erhalten die deutschen Besteller ihr Wheel somit am Freitag.

    Weiter solltest Du eine E-Mail erhalten sobald der Versand erfolgt ist.

    Jetzt hilft nur Daumen drücken!

    Gruß, Sebastian

    I run 100% on PC as well, I read an article on FFB where it showed how turning down FFB on the wheel eliminated some of the smaller details. It explained why a strong wheel is better because the stronger the wheel the more capable it was of delivering meaningful lighter details as well. It said that any lowering of FFB strength should be done only using the in game option in order to avoid this detail loss.
  • Jason what do you think of the latest settings??? im messing with the Scoop settings now that the FFB is right!!!  Also the Masters in the car Tuning will have to be set Per Car!!! on the cleo i like it at 100% but on the BMW i like it at 50 or 60%  There Is a Huge difference in FFB between the Clio and BMW if the Masters are set the same!!!! Exactly how its supposed to be
    :-B

    I'm using the Jack Spade mixed settings and I like them , but the Formula Rookie steering is so light now, it was quite heavy with the default PC FFB settings, but now I can catch slides without needing herculean strength on the V2. I really need the Hub because using the Formula rim with cars like the classic ford escort can be very awkward feeling for catching slides, a round wheel would feel much more natural. Should ship out tomorrow ! :)
  • Jason Shaffer the Masters for the Car Can Be adjusted on a Per Car Basis if its Too Light then Go Up and if you want it Lighter then Decrease the Masters.... i Only Adjust the Masters to Stiffen or Lighten up the wheel on a Per Car Basis Now that the FFB Feels right!!! This Feels Good enough until they Release a FFB update.

    When i Run the Clio with my settings i set the Masters for that car to 100 but when i Run the BMW i set the Masters to 50 or 60 Feels Much More Enjoyable Now!!! its per car and Per Track so Every Track i Run i just Save it i will get all thenCars and Tracks Done 1 Day...LOL

    Danke Sebastian. Eine Frage noch bei der Du mir vielleicht helfen kannst. Wird nur die Wheelbase gepatcht (firmware) oder auch der Lenker für die Xbox, d.h. kann ich die Wheelbase jetzt schon "vorbereiten" oder erst wenn ich das Lenkrad dran habe?

    Viele Grüße, Alexander

  • it's 5/28 in Asia now. Will the xbox one wheel hub be shipped on time?
  • Any info from fanatec has gone very quiet, no updates as to whether first batch is on track etc, would be nice if Thomas could let us know.
  • Mine still says 28th but no shipping confirmation. i was yold they would ship it on the 28th

    Hallo Alexander,

    ich für meinen Teil habe schon mal die Pedale eingestellt. Das Update der Base würde ich in Verbindung mit dem Lenkrad durchführen. Sicher wird die Firmware nicht im Lenkrad "gespeichert" aber es ist für mich momentan die sicherste Vorgehensweise. Also am Besten noch etwas abwarten und dann, wenn der HUB eingetroffen ist, kurz die Firmware updaten.


    Gruß,

    Sebastian

  • ist denn die neue Firmware überhaupt schon online? Ich kann aktuelle nur die alte finden.

    Ich hoffe ja starkt dass der Xbox Hub heute noch verschickt wird, glaube es aber ehrlich gesagt nicht wirklich. Es ist zu ruhig und auf Emails wird auch nicht geantwortet.


  • HUB Shipping date today for first batch. Have standard delivery so not expecting miracles. Waited this long so a couple  of extra days not a problem.
