Best Automobilista 2 Settings for Logitech G29 / G920
This page has been updated for patch 1.6.
Automobilista 2 has been a work in progress since its release in 2020, being updated and improved with regular updates. In November 2024 it received its largest update yet in patch 1.6. The game was already very good, and this update makes it even better. The physics have been completely reworked and it feels very good.
For the Logitech G29 or G920, the new default force feedback isn't that bad, but the wheel is a little lifeless and heavy. With a few tweaks, this is easily fixed.
In this guide, I will show you the settings I use in G HUB and in-game to improve the force feedback.
G HUB Settings
Automobilista 2 has a proper Soft Lock feature, so every car will have the correct steering angle applied automatically, as long as G HUB is set to 900°.
Create a new profile for Automobilista 2 with the following settings:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Operating Range | 900° |
| Sensitivity | 50 |
| Centering Spring | Off |
Automobilista 2 Settings
In Options > Controls > Control Scheme:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Wheel |
| Make | Logitech |
| Model | G29 / G920 |
| Pedal Type | Separate |
Make sure the wheel is set properly to get the correct button bindings. Calibrate the wheel and pedals to make sure the Soft Lock is proper and everything is working correctly.
In Options > Controls > Configuration:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Steering Deadzone | 0 |
| Steering Sensitivity | 50 |
| Throttle Deadzone | 0 |
| Throttle Sensitivity | 30 |
| Brake Deadzone | 0 |
| Brake Sensitivity | 50 |
| Clutch Deadzone | 7 |
| Clutch Sensitivity | 50 |
I recommend removing the Throttle and Brake Deadzones as well as lowering the Throttle Sensitivity quite a bit, though this is a personal preference. Many of these cars are very sensitive to throttle inputs and it's much easier to control them with a less sensitive throttle.
In Options > Controls > Force Feedback:
Remember that you can change the force feedback strength per-car in the car setup menu. Some are definitely stronger than others.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Default+ |
| Gain | 75 |
| Low Force Boost | 10 |
| FX | 20 |
| Damping | 3 |
Type should be Default+. I used to use a custom file for this, but I don't feel that is necessary any longer.
Gain is the maximum power you feel in heavy cornering, for instance. If you set this too high, the forces will clip a lot.
Low Force Boost is the force in the center of the wheel. This helps you feel many of the lighter forces. Some cars can feel a little light in the center. You can raise this for those cars to compensate.
FX is the feeling of bumps and kerbs. You may want to adjust this based on the car and track. It can get annoying on particularly bumpy tracks if this is too high.
Damping just adds weight to the wheel.
Conclusion
Automobilista 2 has come a long way over the course of its development. The force feedback has improved a lot and they keep improving other aspects of the game as time goes on. There are a lot of cars and tracks that I haven't raced with in other games, so it's been a lot of fun trying them all out.
