  • Lately all the iRacing talk has revolved around the new Tempest Weather System, but among the recent updates there was also a major update to the Force Feedback quality for Simucube 2 wheel bases, with the integration of a new API which allows a jump from the standard 60Hz Force Feedback to 360Hz (sort of).
    So how does this actually work, and what real world impact does it have on the driving experience? That's what we're going to explore today, as well as clearing up some misconceptions.

    Beyond the scope of this video, but one important thing to note is that most Direct Drive wheel bases include some kind of interpolation filter to effectively increase the rate in which the feedback you receive to your hands is updated, but this isn't the same as receiving raw data at a higher sample rate.

    •  Před měsícem +2

      Good point, this is often done for efficiency purposes as interpolation data is less processor intensive than making unique data that you or your hardware might not be able to use. Ultimately companies like iRacing are making software and experiences for the masses and need to ensure that many various hardware and hardware combinations can use their software. Not an easy task to please everyone all the time. ;-)

    This is a great video that inherently touches on some of the issues simulation peripheral companies will ultimately have to address in the future. Rather than spec chasing and just simply looking for higher numbers being higher (or lower for latency) we have to look at the quality of the signal and the final integration. Simucube like other wheel makers can only do so much with the data provided. We are always at the mercy of the data, we cannot make something that isn't there.
    So ultimately this is a great update but the total experience relies on the quality of the physics data coming from the game first, proper transmission, and then a proper electro mechanical reproduction (which involves many sub systems but more importantly algorithms). Even if you don't feel this 'update' it is heading in the right direction and away from the era of "effect's based simulation", to true real-time simulation.

    Thanks for breaking this down, Will. It sounds then as though this could be good for muscle memory learning, in terms of gaining information that could otherwise have been missed, especially in spiky situations where interpolation might lose resolution. I'll have to spend time with it at tracks I know well to see if I can feel a difference. It would be interesting if it adds information about unexpected loss in some situations.

    • @boostedmedia

    Try it on the Indy IR-18
    I tried the new 360 HZ using the Dan Suski profile. It worked well in F1 Cars but when I switched to the IR-18 I got a notchy bumpy feeling when turning the wheel. Really noticible when in the pit box just turning the wheel while not moving or just at slow speeds. I also noticed that the bumps at autoclub were to violant and would rotate the wheel 20-30 degrees back and forth down the straight.
    I tried my old setting with the low latency at 20% and the slew rate maxed out and the wheel had an dangerously high extreme vibration that started to tear my rig apart to the point I had to shut it off. After some trouble shooting I found that the Vibration went away with the low latency below 8%. But that notchyness did not go away.
    I’m also seeing a lot of profiles with the slew rates reduced to as low as 1nm/sec to eliminate the notchyness. The SC2 can do 9nm/sec. Tuning it down to 1 is just making it behave like a cheap entry level wheel.

    I purchased one of the early SC2 Pro units and have been using it with IRFFB for many years, driving the Renault 3.5 V8 Formula B car I felt the seat of pants effect (oversteer) plus understeer (trail braking) very helpful, the latency did not seem to slow me down, a few top split CZcams broadcast wins as well as much higher iRating drivers regularly getting smaller in my mirrors, In my opinion I don't think the latency was a huge problem if any, I tried the new 360hz since Dan Suzuki's video and with the same Pro Drive settings I was using with IRFFB it feels very close to what I have been using for years, great to see Simucube working with iRacing and getting this working, great job Will explaining the work behind the scenes in more detail and for Mika to provide the technical stuff, keep up the great work.

    Will, i had trouble originally getting the 360Hz FFB to work. I was using iRacing Manager to start TrueDrive, Simhub & Crewchief etc. The reason it wasn’t working was that TrueDrive needs to be running before iRacing is started and using iRacing Manager that wasn’t the case. However, having got it working i was a little disappointed to find it feels a little rubbery even with the Reconstruction Filter set at 1. Each to their own though and I’m more than happy with the 60Hz force feedback.

    I'm confused here. The six data points sent are the current one and the previous five. The previous data has already been sent in terms of time. Shouldn't we immediately use the current data upon receipt? This is to minimize latency, isn't it?

    • @boostedmedia

      You would decrease latency and fidelity. Iracing only updates at 60hz. If you only use the most updated data you'll only receive 60 data points a second.

    Thanks Will! Please do more direct cross comparisons between the bases. You've said they've all gotten to point where they are very good but it would still help a lot to dive into the minute details that do set some bases apart from the others, especially now that there are so many options in the midrange field (where such direct comparisons are practically non existent). Would love to see direct comparisons between Simagic Alpha Mini, Fanatec CS DD, Moza R12, Asetek La Prima, G-Pro and then between the Simagic Alpha, CS DD+, Simucube Sport, Asetek Forte, Moza R16 etc. I don't think anyone else has such broad access to this hardware that you have so this would be a great resource for a lot of people.

    Iracing updates at 60hz? Isnt that really slow? I play ACC on my PS5 with a Thrustmaster T300 and it says my refresh rate is 400hz 😮 Is that correct? If so, then why the hell is Iracing so far behind? I've never tried Iracing but 60hz can't possibly feel anything like 400hz right?

    This 60hz rate is one of my biggest critiques of iRacing over the years. At 300km/hr with a ffb rate of 60hz you travel 1.3m between updates, at 200km/hr that's still 88cm between updates. Think about that and what it really means for different drivers running the sim on different PC's.

    Yeah I am really not that excited about the fact they just added in an interpolation layer instead of doing the FFB properly. I understand the SimuCube team worked on this them selves so it's better than nothing.
    Sounds interesting that the wheelbase telemetry might be opened up in the future. I am currently forking irFFB and working along side rob to see if I can solve some of the issues with it but I much prefer the wheel slip stuff from irFFB. Latency I find minimal anyway, and if you compare it to screen draw timings (not just screen latency) it's still less. But again its preference because Brains are funny.

    Hey Will, why do you use too much damping, too much friction and too much inertia and static force reduction in your simucube profile?

      @lilfurbal Před měsícem

      The simucube reconstruction filter is the DLSS for force feedback. So when using the 60hz mode that the game previously sent out, the recon filter strength will add it generated frames to smooth it out to 360+ hz. Now that we can get 360 true ffb points, we can lower or turn off the reconstruction filter as we don't need to generate fake ffb points to up it to 360, it's already there. So yeah, this is the opposite of DLSS, it's providing more true ffb 'frames' allowing greater potential to turn the ffb DLSS off entirely.

    iRacing has been almost frozen in development for years. They need to rewrite a lot of their code, still. True 400 or 1000Hz FFB would be nice. YOu running 4x4k monitors at 120Hz possibly are already around 50ms latency on the visuals (meaning it takes 50ms to show on screen the consequences of your inputs). Sim Racing at our level, with the games we play, latency is a reality.

    • @boostedmedia

      "Frozen in development" is a bit harsh considering the massive weather update that just dropped. The only real disadvantage I can see of doing FFB this way is the negligible (in my opinion) latency it creates. Either way its a step forward IMO. I hope other manufacturers can implement similar.

It's really hard to put yourself in their shoes but we should assume that iRacing like any other company is working hard to capture a market share (your dollars) and is doing the best it can to provide value for value. So although from the front end it appears as they have been frozen, in the back they are pushing hard to give us better a better product. And many of the improvements they have made over the years do take a lot of time, like the UI for example. Their software is so interconnected and complex that its not as easy as just changing some html/css code, everything has a cost benefit. 🙂 A programmer can better understand the complexities of it all.

For me, it feels a little smoother, little more detail but in order to get the best out of it, I’ll need to go through each setting, adjust, test repeat, which is time consuming, then add in different cars 😯 Like Will says, not a game changer and could you say a little manipulation to make this happen, sure.
