This is - by far - the most in dept and well put together wheel tutorial for FM8 to this date. Also, by all what I've read and tested so far, it's the only one that actually gets all the settings CORRECTLY. It's honestly mind blowing to me, how many self proclaimed "sim racing content creators" out there put out similar guides in the last couple of days, that are just completely off and not correct about what setting does what. TLDR: Thanks, best guide, can recommend!

@@TimmyTheSnail i think you wont be disappointed - do yourself a favour though, and actually WATCH the entire thing and try to understand the concepts explained here. Don't just simply copy and paste his base settings. While they are a very good starting point, you can (and should!) still further adjust to your liking. The tools are very well explained here. For example, i decided to go with much higher mechanical trail than him, despite being on a belt wheel, just because i liked the heavier feeling result more.

It seems the same as Forza 7, in which case I'd recommend checking out Blue028's video on FM7 FFB where he gets real in detail on what each setting actually does. Unless they changed it for FM8, which is possible, the FFB scale does not scale all effects, only certain ones.

Thank you so much for this video! Two days of testing setting suggestions by others, and now I finally have my Thrustmaster T300 feeling just right in Forza Motorsports after watching your video. You made it so easy to understand what each slider does, and made great suggestions for both newer direct-drive wheels, and older belt/gear driven wheels.

Bro, these are the BEST settings so far I tried... I tried personnal settings and I wasn't happy with it, tried some I found on KZread, but yours, it's just "Perfect" ! Thanks mate

Thank you, I drive for a living and was feeling like I was a total fraud. I have a pretty basic Logitech wheel and the gear settings worked really nicely. This transformed the game for me, thanks again!

These settings literally got me my 1st two podiums! I did have to turn the wheel dampening down to 0 on my thrustmaster TX though. Thank you 😊

Oh my goodness! You've just brought the game back to life. Your suggestions changed the game 180 degrees. It does feel REAL. YOU'RE A GENIUS!

I wanted to say THANK YOU! I bought a wheel setup last year and was playing horizon and asetto and was struggling. I waited for Motorsports because I’ve grown up on it and thought I would have a better time. Initially it was good. I updated to your settings and now I am having a blast. The feel for the understeer has been a godsend and that is from your explanation. Very much looking forward to your tuning video so I can dial in more. Happy motoring!!!!

Oh man, tanks you for this. The FFB is so dialed in for me now. I've been sim racing for 3 years now, played em all from more sim-cade games like GT7 to full sims like iRacing and everything in between. This may sound crazy but I feel this is the best FFB I've experienced. Now before the pitchforks come im not claiming that Motosport has better FFB and physics than iRacing, but thanks to this guide my ol' TS-XW has never felt so perfectly connected with a virtual car. Hopefully I can use some if this new knowledge to get my settings just as dialed in with my other games. Edit: Just read some of the other comments and its seems like there are quite a few people with the TS-XW and they feel the same way, kinda interesting.

Thank you big time for your hard work, the effort you put into this video speaks for itself. I'm in my 60's and 5 years ago or so I purchased Fanatec V2 servo, V3 pedals, shifter and obutto rig, but never really took a deep dive into the settings. Haven't really used the rig in several years but with FM release I thought I give it another go. Right off the bat the handling was bad I tried a few things, probably made it worse, anyway your instructions and explanations have now allowed me to drive and race and it feels really good. One question is "how does steering sensitivity (on wheel ) affect the overall turning radius of the car? I've had it set at 750 but would like to know if it can be improved. Be safe and keep up the awesome work.

this was needed fr i watched like 5 ppl just talk nonsense

Thank you very much on this guide and the baseline guide you posted on reddit for cars on FM8.

Oh man, that's so much better. I find it odd that so many others have such different settings? This is by far the best I've tried. Like how you explained to use Force Feedback slider as your over all volume.

Omg! It's so much better on ts-xw from Thrustmaster with this settings!! Many thanks 🎉

AC Settings: Gain 65% (also have to adjust per car setting but usually 75%) works best for me. Filter 0, Minimum force 0, all the effects 0, enhanced understeer effect 0 and soft lock is activated. Center boost range is 10% and experimental settings are on with gyroscopic effect. In this setting Damper gain is 100% Bare in mind, order of these settings are as displayed in Content Manager.

honest to jebuz this video need to be in the actual game as a tutorial when setting up a wheel. good shit

Great job this was welcomed 🙌

So, I've got this game for free through gamepass and my buddy and I both just got Moza R5 wheels. We've tried out assetto, auto mobilista, etc. but find that the multiplayer aspect (having to choose a specific server to join) and the complexity and annoyance of having to constantly back out to change settings, adjust ffb, etc. is really frustrating. Ease of use is definitely on the low end, though the FFB is incredibly detailed and realistic. We've been spending most our time in Forza Horizon 5, simply for the ease of playing together, variety of surfaces/cars/race types, ease of adjusting settings, and so on. However, the FFB leaves a lot to be desired in comparison to Assetto. Obviously this is understandable because its more of an arcade, but I have felt for many years that Horizon needs to update its FFB engine. Anyway, I have thought about playing Forza Motorsport, because I am under the assumption that the FFB is at least slightly more realistic and ease of use in terms of playing together, changing settings, etc. is still there and far better than Assetto, but I have heard mixed reviews about the game itself. Is Forza Motorsport a bad experience, or are people just complaining because it wasnt necessarily all they were hoping for? Was it maybe bad at launch and since gotten better? I'm curious what you think is a good balance when it comes to ease of use for Novice sim racers and also detailed FFB. Thanks!

Oscar has the senna and schumacher vibe, feels like he brings something extra to the table.

Well done. Thanks for the tips. I've been waiting for my CSL DD because I thought my G920 was just complete shit (which it still is) but it atleast feels better.

THANK YOU.

Amazing video appreciate the help

Great video especially having just bought the game. I won’t have to spend hours trying to figure out the settings and I can just jump into a race once it finishes downloading the 100+gb…

Great video, would love to see one about pedals, it might just be me my break and throttle are extremely sensitive. im not as knowledgeable on these types of things on what settings to change where i dont have to "Big toe" the brake and throttle like im in spongebob and i have messed around with the settings but figured you the internet knows best.

It's crazy how different setups vary for wheels and different drivers. I have a Logitech G920 and my setup is way different than some of your recommendations here. I have been racing in online Forza lobbies for years and feel like I have a pretty quick setup. First I don't run sim steering because I'm a veteran of online lobbies. I know first hand that when someone bashes into you. (and they will..) Sim steering is much harder to recover and in previous games has always felt to snappy. I haven't played with it to much here. But if you do a lot of online racing normal steering is usually better. I tuned my vibration scale all the way down because I think a properly tuned wheel doesn't need extra vibration. I agree force feedback is like a master volume switch. Mine is relatively low as I use the other adjustments to fine tune my wheels overall feel. Mechanical and pneumatic scales I agree are probably some of the most important tuning calibrations for this game. I don't believe belt and gear setups benefit from lower mechanical and higher pneumatic settings though. My mechanical is almost maxed out because I prefer to have as much machine feedback as my wheel will allow. and pneumatic settings I found work best lowered at a ratio of about 110-130 points below my mechanical setting. It creates a sweet spot where you have the mechanical weight of the car and the assistance, or feeling of power steering. Road feel is a setting I think should be mostly left alone until all your other wheel tuning is done. If after you've made all your adjustments you still don't feel the road enough then you can come back to this. I think load sensitivity should always be turned up close to if not the maximum. The more feel for tire load changes the better. This is why your overall force feedback scale is so important to get right. I have my wheel dampening maxed out the complete opposite of what you suggest. This might be because I have a gear driven wheel and this is probably very different for direct drive wheels. My wheel feels very well balanced with this turned up. I would play with this setting before I adjusted force feedback scale to set your road feel and wheel resistance. I do agree with you that center spring values are not needed if your wheel is tuned properly. Having this to high can cause some wheels to shudder and bounce in the center. I have my dynamic damper behaviour all the way up because of how much I have my wheel damping scale turned up. Having this higher preserves the detail in your wheel when tires start to slip. This seems pretty important to me. I have my steering sensitivity turned all the way up too. This may be different for direct drive wheels. But having a sensitive steering wheel that responds to the smallest input from the driver is also very important to me. All and all I think this is a good video. But, I think I will stick with my setup. It's gotten me a few top ten leaderboard times so far this week and I love how the cars feel in this game with my setup.
