Best Wreckfest 2 Settings for Logitech G29 / G920
Wreckfest 2 continues its Early Access with the release of Content Update 5. Like previous updates, there are many bug fixes and new content. But this one also changes the force feedback quite a bit, so these settings need to be updated as well.
The force feedback for the Logitech G29 and G920 is very good. In a game with this much destruction and car damage, it would be very easy for these wheels to become a loud, rattling mess. Thankfully, that is not the case here. The force feedback is smooth and informative, especially when the car is severely damaged. There is a noticeable difference felt between the different cars. Heavier cars have a more sluggish feel while the lighter cars are more snappy.
In this guide, I will show you the settings I use to improve the force feedback and what you may want to adjust for your own setup.
G HUB Settings
I recommend using 540° for the steering rotation, as it feels natural and allows for fast turns easily.
Create a new profile for Wreckfest 2 with the following settings:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Operating Range | 540° |
| Sensitivity | 50 |
| Centering Spring | Off |
Wreckfest 2 Settings
In Options > Settings > Bindings:
Since there are no preset controller bindings, you'll need to manually configure all the controls, including pedals, steering, and buttons. Be sure to check both the Menu and Driving subsections to find all the main bindings.
In Options > Settings > Controller:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Controller | Logitech G29 / G920 |
| Controller Type | Wheel |
| Force Feedback Gain | 90% |
| Main Force | 60% |
| Dynamic Damping | 15% |
| Low Force Boost | 15% |
| Steering Lock | 540 |
| Steering Dead Zone | 0% |
| Steering Saturation | 100% |
| Steering Sensitivity | 50% |
| Steering Speed Sensitivity | 0% |
Force Feedback Gain is the overall strength. Use this to control the maximum strength you want to feel.
Main Force provides the dynamic forces, including most of the jolts and bumps you feel when getting hit or landing from jumps. It doesn't provide a lot of consistent resistance in the turns. If you only use Main Force, the wheel will feel light to turn, but have very strong forces.
Dynamic Damping provides more consistent force when you are counter steering. If you like the wheel of a heavier wheel, you can raise this, but setting it too high will make the wheel feel numb while turning.
Low Force Boost raises the lightest forces so they can be felt on these wheels.
Steering Lock should match what you have set in G HUB.
Steering Dead Zone, Saturation, Sensitivity and Speed Sensitivity are set to the defaults, producing ideal linear steering.
In Assists:
You can access the Assists menu before you start a race.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Shifting | Manual / Manual + Clutch |
| ABS | Personal Preference |
| Traction Control | None |
| Stability Control | None |
I recommend turning Traction Control and Stability Control off. These cars aren't particularly hard to control, and it makes the driving experience a little more lively without the assists. This is all personal preference, though, so feel free to use whatever you like here.
Conclusion
Wreckfest 2 is shaping up to be a great game. The driving is solid, with impressive graphics and sound. If all they do is add in a lot more cars and tracks, the game will be a success in my opinion.
