Damper pretty much adds fake weight to the wheel, which is usually designed to reduce oscillations in the wheel. It is an option that is sometimes required and sometimes not, but is often a hindrence on lower end wheels (slows down the wheels self rotation speed, very bad on some wheels such as the G27/G29/G920). In terms of Damper and Assetto Corsa, the game uses a dynamic damper, which is only really active at very low speeds. So you can just leave it at 100%. Forza 7 and Forza Horizon 4 both use a dynamic damper as well.

In games that dont have a dynamic damper setting, they usually have an ingame option to adjust it. If you however have it set to 0% in the Thrustmaster software, in game damper settings will not work at all. Most modern racing games have either a dynamic damper or an option in game to adjust the level of damping (or even both). But to use the ingame settings, you need to have the damper setting in the TM software set to 100%.

In much older games that just didnt feature very many options in game for setting up force feedback settings, you would have to manually adjust them in the wheels software. Which has given the very old hat advice of setting Damper and Spring in the wheels software to 0%. This advice is generally not needed in a modern title with a decent set of options for force feedback included.

Pretty much for most modern racing games and sims with decent FFB settings, you ideally want to be leaving Spring and Damper set to 100% in the wheels software and just adjust as needed in the particular racing title you are using.

p.s If you press and hold the "mode" button on the T300 RS servo base, it will flip the throttle/clutch. It should resolve the issue with them showing up the wrong way around.

I bought a t300rs gt with th8a and i am waiting for delivery. I will watch this detailed vid for information. I hope it will work great for me. Thanks :)

[reelizt]

tbh i thought i was familiar with AC and all this stuff. But the vid deff helped me look from a different outlook. so i kind of started over. now for some reason, the game feels better than ever.

[rkijffie]

Holy moly, this helped me alot. Wheel feels insane now!

[thatonespot]

It the same on t3pm thanks a million for your instructions and help it’s my first time playing I didn’t get weather thing yet but I’ve got the mods and I’m still looking for maps and hopefully I set my wheel up

[damienjassor]

bro thank you kindly you saved my game play experience.

[kaybe]

I had a G29 for half a year. Didn't really like it that much. To clunky. Ordered a T300 today. Super hyped. Hopefully this video will help me with setting it up when it comes in.

[yodahvh]

Bro u saved my day <3 i just did the same settings and i could start doing good drifts after just 2-3 mins thanks a lot

[slamonfpv]

Thankyou for doing this vid but I gotta say never have I had to do so much stuffin around to play a game oh yer first time on pc from ps4 had no idea what to do😅 thanks

[BeowulfGaming]

fot the same wheel as you. just wanted to say, ive been testingfor 3 weeks all sorts of configs and settings etc. and what seems to work the most is L
1. set 1080 angle rot. in drivers,
2. set 900 degrees in CM and apply soft lock
3. ignore all LUT shit
4. use gain 80% and kerb FX 20%, rest is 0%
5. modify FFB per car using + and -

[mrfirefool]

Thanks mate :-) I will try to learn drifting in assetto corsa.

[penguinactually]

Thanks for a baseline.

I believe though that the LUT stuff is more bad than good for Thrustmaster wheels due to them already being pretty linear, compared to the likes of Logitech wheels so it's not worth doing. In my experience it makes things on my T300 feel so awful it's not even possible to drive lol

Big thanks for the fan tip, when I got my T300 I ONLY came across people saying you can only toggle it on with a T500 or better. Poor things been running in auto for a few years now but still hasn't had motor fade :)

Also worth mentioning that hitting mode and D-pad left and right toggles preset steering locks and flashes for each setting. 240, 360, 540, 900 and 1080 iirc

[deemonk_nantaiken]

what are the disadvantages of using spring and damper at 0%

[smoky]

Him: You can copy my settings.
Also him: Has the default seettings.

[alxcastro]

any one have a deadzone at the start of the brake ? any way to solve it ??

[CryptoKage]

yooo i have the same wheel but when i do the wheelcheck and then the lut generator after when i click on create lut or whatever and it takes me to my folders to look for it there’s nothing there, any tips ? i’ve ran wheelcheck more than once
