Calling PS4/Ps5 wheel Users
Hey guys, I'm after some advice. I run the G29 on PS4 with the TruBrake v2 mod and have previously had no difficulty on the F1 Games. I only recently got the TruBrake for F122 but have been playing ...

First of all, welcome to the wheel club 😆👍🏼
I started using a wheel on racing game and sims back in 2012 with an F1 1994 mod for rFactor. After a lot of practice, I was able to match Ayrton Senna’s real life pole time around 1994 Imola using the same FW16. It’s worth noting I’ve never used any driving assists nor have I used anything other than cockpit view
in the 10 years since, with the various games and sims, I’ve fiddled with settings just like you have but ultimately, I’ve adapted my driving style to the game/sim and it wasn’t long ago when, after adapting to F1 22, I went back to try the some of the older F1 games by CM starting with F1 2015 with them on the same settings I left them on when I used to play them to death and it was like going back to school. Sometimes you just need to adapt and there is some adapting to do with F1 22. I’ll give my settings and recommend to just try them and I don’t do much from the default settings. I just bump up the FFB to 150, turn on the understeer enhance and the only calibration adjustment I have is the steering deadzone which is set at 1 as I feel the car just wanders a little on 0. Not sure how my settings will work with a G29 as I use a Thurstmaster T-GT2 with an SF1000 wheel and T3PA Pro pedal set, but give it a go.
Thanks guys, this is great. I value your feedback and always like to see what other players run with the same/similar setup.
I take all the points so far and I totally agree - it's about finding the balance. I was probably misleading to begin with, I'm not struggling as such just haven't found my settings for 22 after getting the game in July. I've been confident and worked up to 100-110 AI every year and have been using this setup in various guises since 2020. When I started with it, I was sat on the floor with the wheel on the coffee table ha! Now I'm on a GT Lite seat which is great for me.
I will be looking to upgrade in future but for now, the G29 is still going strong. The pedals have been apart and back together hundreds of times with various springs, potentiometers etc... I probably could have just bought a fanatec rig for the money I e spent but hey ho. It's getting it past the wife that's the hard part!!
