My Force Feedback files

[greypeace]

I would not consider myself as "wise",but I have spent some time fiddling with the FFB files
Using at the beginning an Hex editor for modifying the DATA fields (blindly)
Then I used FFEDIT and managed to adjust the spring effect to my liking
The one that annoyed me the most is the Shake file that shakes the stick at the inset of a stall
Very UNFORTUNATELY in IL2 this damn effect is combined with :
1/ crash scraping the ground
2/ and also with the hits to the plane by bullets..
This comes I think from the program itself.

I am still trying to cancell or minimize those 2 effects to keep only the stall shake,but have been unsucsessfull up to now.
I have also put some bias on the shake action to give a slight push to releave the pull on the stick(just a bit)



I managed to isolate the machine gun shooting vibrations amplitude and frequency(machinegun)
and also set up a lower frequency for the cannon(autocannon)
The result shooting separately is good
but the firing of both at the same time is somewhat "wild"
I completely cancelled "punch" "bomb" and "mortar"(rename it to keep it safe if you want)
These files work fairly well tested on IL2,but have not been tested yet on IL2 CoD

If you want them to try , PM me but KEEP yours SAFE in case

Thanks greypeace.

So what you're saying is...

SPRING
- Overall tension of the stick

SHAKE
- Stall warning
- Roadbumps (shakes when wheel in contact with ground)
- Bullets hitting your plane

MACHINEGUN
- Shake when fireing the machinegun

CANNON
- Shake when fireing the cannon

PUNCH, MORTAR and BOMBS are obsolete (perhaps not BOMBS if flying a bomber).

I'll send u a PM. Wanna try yours.

In a dreamworld the dev team would separate the SHAKE forces to different files. But guess they got their hands full building German minelayers.

Just back-up your originals and replace with these. Feel free to mix and match with the originals if you prefer some of those.

Thanks for the FFb files....I have upto now simply deleted all the files barr the 'Spring' file in the past as all the others seemed to make it harder to control the stick in dogfight scenarios...I would like to keep them so that they still work but are toned right down to a level where I can still be competitive...
