Other things to consider could be the mounting options or the load cell force being too strong for your rig. But doing the right research is definitely something you should not overlook when purchasing new or used goods. The guide has been broken down into six different steps so if you already have a head start skip to the section you need help with. Additionally, throughout the guide there will be a number of other articles linked within that will go into more detail on particular topics. 1. Before You Begin For beginners in the sim racing arena, the Logitech G29 is a brilliant entry-level wheel to start with. Its price places it firmly as one of the cheapest options around and many existing racers will attest to the product’s robustness and strength. The main thing we are trying to find is a balance between frames per second (how smoothly your game runs) and game quality. Before we start tweaking our settings, it’d be helpful to know what frame rate you need to aim for. Generally speaking, your target frame rate should probably be somewhere near your monitor’s maximum refresh rate, which if you don’t know already, can be found in your PC’s settings. Other things to consider could be the mounting options of the base to a rig or even the wheel to the base as there are a few different options now for Xbox and what is compatible, from a Logitech G923 which is a fixed wheel eco-system, up to Thrustmaster and Fanatec that allow you to change wheels and pedal combinations.

Clipping is where the game is outputting a larger force to your wheel than it is physically able to produce. This will create a ‘dead zone’ where the wheel will max its available output and you will lose feel at the harsher ends of force. Clipping is only apparent in ACC with the lower end, gear or belt-driven wheels. This beginner-friendly ethos means the G29 occupies a large portion of the sim racing market. Ask a racer what wheel they use, and the most likely answer will be this Logitech creation. With that in mind, many racers on Assetto Corsa Competizione will have this wheel. Here are our recommendations for running the Logitech G29 in ACC. Logitech G Hub Guide However, on a PS5, this is not possible as it requires every input to come from a single device. As a result, if you are looking at purchasing pedal upgrades, the upgrades available in that brand’s ecosystem must also be considered. The third menu option is for your pedals, which is where you are able to change the sensitivity of the pedals. For all of these settings it is best to leave them on default and adjust so within ACC itself as this will provide a more consistent experience overall. Step 4: Launching ACC They can be adjusted both in terms of their faces and in terms of their spacing across the pedal plate, allowing you to have the pedals close together like you would expect from a formula car, or have them further apart to fit the style of a GT car’s pedal box – rare customisation at this price point.The Clubspot V3 pedal set comes with a host of adjustability features too, giving you the ability to tweak them to your liking. The pedal faces can be adjusted into many configurations too, which allows all different styles of drivers to find what fits them best. On a computer, you can typically run a wheelbase and pedals from two separate manufacturers with little issue as you can assign different inputs to different devices via USB.

A common theme you may have noticed is “minimal visual impact.” The game is no doubt gorgeous, but many of the small details that may be more noticeable in mainstream Unreal Engine titles will be much harder to spot in ACC, as you’re usually going past them at 160mph (260 km/h). You probably aren’t going to notice slightly worse grass LODs when you’re fighting other cars for position. Once the tension has eased, you can try to find your pace during the race. This will also be when you either start gaining on the car in front of you or lose the lead to the vehicle behind you. It is the responsibility of the vehicle behind to make a clean(-ish) pass. Rubbing is racing (no pun intended), but crashing isn’t.

A major factor to keep in mind is therefore to determine if a pedal set is compatible with a console because your pedals must be plugged directly into the wheel base only for them to work. Now that we know our steering wheel will work with Assetto Corsa Competizione, it’s time to get into the nitty-gritty of things: the settings. For beginners in the sim racing arena, the Logitech G29 is a brilliant entry- level wheel to start with. Its price places it firmly as one of the cheapest options around and many existing racers will attest to the product 's robustness and strength. We advise that you follow the manufacturer’s guidance for adjusting your firmware settings. Please note that Firmware settings must be set before changing the in-game settings.

These cars have different engine modes too. Most vehicles at the very least have a qualifying mode, a race mode and a safety-car mode. You can use these modes to save fuel during the warm-up lap or the race. Before launching Assetto Corsa Competizione, it’s important for your wheel to have the right firmware. It is also necessary to perfect the in-software settings. In the case of the G29, this means going into the easy-to-use Logitech G Hub where you will find settings concerning your wheel. Logitech G Hub settings for ACC – Image credit: Logitech Base: Refers to the chassis or body of the racing wheel containing the primary electronic and mechanical components. Yes it is. The G29 & G920 are compatible wih pretty much any racing game on the market including Assetto Corsa Competizione. Add on to this the T3PM pedals that feature a magnetic sensor, which is more reliable and has more precision than the potentiometers that Logitech use, and you have a sturdy product that will last you thousands of hours of wonderful sim racing.

Although Qualifying is about solo performance be aware of your surroundings, and use your mini-map to judge whether people on a fast lap are close when exiting the pits. If you get blue flags during qualifying, that means someone on a timed lap is approaching you. Please let them pass your car. Also, when starting a flying lap yourself, make sure there is about a 2-3 second gap between you and the person in front to make sure you don’t hinder each other. If you are looking to take your driving to the next level, a belt-drive wheelbase is a logical choice. Direct-Drive
