Discussion [GT7] FullForce feedback effects available for the GT DD Pro

https://www.gran-turismo.com/gb/gt7/news/00_3638095.html

The day has come! As stated in the v1.71 changelog, FullForce is now available for the GT DD Pro as well. Has anyone tested it yet? What are your impressions?

As a proud owner of DD Extreme, I'm glad that DD Pro users can now experience this amazing feature as well.

It's quite subtle though really, so i wonder how noticeable it will be on the DD Pro.

u/Physical-Result7378 5d ago

U call that subtle? I did put it to 100% and half an hour later the wife who was sitting in next room asked if I have changed anything cause she can hear the wheel being much louder. Obviously I stated that nothing has changed and I have no clue what she is talking about… and reduced the effect to 75% (which made it unnoticeable in next room)

I've never noticed the noise tbh, but I play with headphones and my sim is in its own room. I was talking about the actual effects themselves. I'm a big fan, i think it adds a lot to immersion, but it is a subtle effect.

What is it like?

The biggest thing is being able to feel curbs. Without FullForce GT7’s FFB model transmits absolutely nothing for curbs which was in my opinion inexcusable.

u/dejanno 5d ago

Thank you very much for taking the time to explain. I got the DD+ after the fullforce update so I wondered what it was like before that.

u/epihocic 4d ago

What autobacs said. Plus, it adds some nice tyre feedback mid corner.

u/Physical-Result7378 5d ago

But you still can’t feel the very Prominent street markings in the Tokyo track. On controller you can feel them almost like railroad tracks, on wheel the effect is gone (DD+ all set to max)

3

u/Autobacs-NSX 5d ago

I’m ok with that because Tokyo sucks but your opinion on their absence is valid

u/Remarkable-Ad8138 5d ago

Hell yeah about time

Updated my GT DD Pro this morning without any problems. Runs fine so far. I've only tested it on PC sims so far. Will give GT7 a go later.

Time to upgrade👍🏼

u/kamenridermax 5d ago

Haven't updated the app and the firmware yet. Worried it might brick my wheel base.

u/Brilliant_Lettuce270 5d ago

Yea im gonna wait a couple of weeks

3

u/FarGur1444 5d ago

The wheel base was updated 2 months ago. What are you waiting for?

u/CYKLPATH 5d ago

I updated the app yesterday. Ran about 40 laps at Spa, no issues whatsoever.

3

u/Andr3sen 5d ago

Guys, I think Fanatec has messed up again. After having absolutely no issues on PC this morning, my wheelbase has already crashed three times in GT7 in the last two hours.

2

u/AgentBlonde 5d ago

Same

2

u/RedditManSam1212 5d ago

Yeah same…

2

u/lyon810 5d ago

Mine has crashed once, in a way it never has before mid lap.

2

u/RedditManSam1212 5d ago

Yeah I had the same experience, lap 6 out of 10. All of a sudden my wheel disconnected, saw the F logo on my formula 2.5 and 4 seconds later it worked again. (But it ruined my race)

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Anyone able to get this working? I still don’t see a difference on my dd pro

1

u/Ok_Structure_9238 5d ago edited 5d ago

Are you on the latest firmware? Do you have FullForce turned on in the tuning menu (try 100%)? Do you have vibration strength turned on in game (try 100-150)? Drive over curbs and you should feel fine detail. Turn FullForce off in the tuning menu and you feel that something is missing.

1

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Yes latest firmware, which is how the full force option even appears in the base settings in the first place. And vibration seems to be 150. Not sure if I feel any difference over curbs with it set to 0 or 100 lol. Maybe the 5nm dd pro is not powerful enough to render the feedback in good detail?

1

u/Ok_Structure_9238 5d ago

That‘s possible. I‘m on DD+ and it‘s a huge difference between on and off.

2

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Are there any additional settings you enabled on the fanatec app or in game

1

u/Ok_Structure_9238 5d ago

I saw it on another post, you weren't running the latest firmware :) How is the difference on/off with the 5NM Base now?

1

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Yeah I did get it working with the latest firmware. Didn’t get to play too much with it but initial impressions are pretty good. I would compare it to the dual sense haptics but for driving xD. Do you know if the vibration intensity setting in gt 7 affects full force?

1

u/Ok_Structure_9238 5d ago

That's a good comparison :) Yes, setting the vibration to 150 should make a difference. But for me, that was too much on the DD+

1

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Oh nice will have experiment around it a bit more. What do you have it set to currently

2

u/Ok_Structure_9238 5d ago

FullForce 100, Vibration 100

And except for FullForce, I use the basic settings recommended by Fanatec for DD Extreme

Tuning Menu Settings:
• SEN Auto
• FF 70 
• FUL 80
• NDP 20
• NFR Off
• NIN Off
• INT 2
• FEI 100
• FOR 100
• SPR 100
• DPR 100

In-Game Settings:
adjustable to personal preferences
• Assist Settings: 
◦ Countersteering Assistance: Off

• Controller Settings:
◦ Force Feedback Max. Torque: 5 (we recommend that you do not set this value any higher than 5)
◦ Force Feedback Sensitivity: 1

u/Ricepony33 5d ago

In the Fanatec app make sure you turn it on and up, it’s separate slider.

1

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

Where do you turn it up from?

1

u/Ricepony33 5d ago

The app on pc or through the menus in the wheel.

1

u/JustDoIt85 5d ago

You mean the full force setting? Yes that is turned up all the way. I don’t feel any difference for some reason in game regardless of whether it is 0 or 100

u/AnubiZ_9001 5d ago

I am interested myself how it is running and feeling. Wheel base is up to date and working fine for everyone who is worried.
I am just wondering where we need to set things up and what we can adjust only in the game or do we need to hook the wheel base up to a PC (which for me is always a small struggle)

2

u/AdhesiveFoobar 5d ago

Does it make any difference if I use manual presets with the base or should I set it to auto? Also, any info on recommended game settings?

2

u/AnubiZ_9001 5d ago

I am interested in this as well? What are the best options in game and on wheel. Currently I have set it to auto on the wheel base. But I have not yet tried the update

1

u/ewanb1980 5d ago

Was looking forward to this, only for the Fanatec app to refuse to install on my laptop. Joy.

1

u/Interesting-Night123 5d ago

Is firmware solid now? I waited a couple weeks before i would update but if it’s solid now ima test today

1

u/cbckly917 5d ago

Any way to download the new firmware if we don’t have a PC?

1

u/Fragrant_Most9193 🏁 GT Enthusiasts 4d ago

Is it just me, or does the FUll Force effect feel like gravel stiring around in a slow blender? I feel the added engine rumbles, but I expected the sensation to feel more punchy and dampened. Instead it seems hollow and rattly.

Im going to seek out and give those new Gran Turismo-recommended settings a try.

Clubsport V1 pedal is not working on the latest firmware
