SimSightline / AC EVO Settings

Assetto Corsa EVO Settings

AC EVO is still in Early Access (v0.9), so settings change with updates. Here is Kunos's own force feedback baseline, published values for every major wheel brand, controller settings, and optimised graphics settings that keep most of the Ultra look with more frames.

AC EVO force feedback: Kunos's baseline

  1. Set your wheel software to 80–100% force (Kunos targets about 7–8 Nm at the base on Fanatec, MOZA and Simucube) and note its rotation angle.
  2. In AC EVO open Settings → Controls → Wheel (two panels: Controls and FFB Enhancements).
  3. Set Steering lock to exactly the same angle as the wheel software.
  4. FFB gain 80%, Dynamic damping 40%, Minimum damper 0%, Damper gain 20%.
  5. Lower FFB gain in game (not the base) if the wheel clips. Bind FFB gain up/down to wheel buttons to adjust per car.

From Kunos's AC EVO wheel setup guide, compiled by SimRacingCockpit. Values were checked against v0.9.1 (September 2026); no slider names changed in v0.9.

AC EVO FFB settings explained

SettingWhat it does
Steering lockMust match the wheel software, or the on-screen wheel turns more or less than yours.
FFB gainOverall strength. Lower it if the wheel goes flat (clips).
Dynamic dampingHow quickly the wheel reacts; more feels heavier and slower.
Minimum damperThe lowest damping level at all times.
Damper gainThe wheel's static damping.
Audio-based FFB effectsTurns on Fanatec FullForce or Logitech TRUEFORCE effects.
Curbs, Road, Tyre slips, ABSExtra effects under FFB Enhancements.

Zero-damper alternative: Thrustmaster and Asetek set Dynamic damping, Minimum damper and Damper gain all to 0% and control strength with FFB gain alone. Try it on any direct drive base if Kunos's damping feels heavy.

Wheel software for AC EVO

  • Fanatec: SEN Auto, FF 100 on a CSL DD (40–70% on ClubSport or Podium DD), FullForce 50%, NDP 15–25, NFR 0–5, NIN off, INT 2–6, FEI 100, FOR/SPR/DPR 100. Avoid high NDP, NFR, NIN and INT. See CSL DD settings.
  • MOZA (Pit House): 1080°, road sensitivity 10, game FFB intensity 90–100%, max wheel speed 100%, wheel spring 0%, damper 0–10%, max output torque about 8 Nm (90–100%), hands-off protection on, steering wheel inertia 2600, natural inertia 100%, friction 10%, speed damping 0%. Kunos and MOZA's own video differ slightly on damper and intensity, so we show both. More: MOZA R5, MOZA R9.
  • Logitech G HUB: G29 900°, sensitivity 50, centering spring off (Koponen also recommends an ffb.lut file). RS50: RS mode, 8 Nm, filter 5, dampener off, TRUEFORCE audio 85, 1080°. G PRO: PRO mode, 11 Nm, filter 5, dampener off, TRUEFORCE audio 50, 1080°.
  • Thrustmaster T598: profile 3, master gain 100%, mode E, inertia and friction off, boosts 0, speed EXT, damper 0%, spring auto, end stop high. T818: master gain 100%, damper 0%, FFB linearity 0% (10–30% if it oscillates).
  • Simucube (True Drive): about 8 Nm, 1080°, reconstruction filter 1, damping 13%, friction and inertia 0%, slew rate limit off.
  • Simagic: Assetto Corsa EVO preset; see our Simagic Alpha EVO settings for the per-base output.
  • Asetek: import the AC EVO preset in RaceHub (Wheelbase → Force Feedback Settings).

Best AC EVO controller settings

  • Steering: deadzone 10%, curvature 10%.
  • Throttle: deadzone 0%, curvature 10%.
  • Brake: curvature 0%.

From PM Racing's v0.6 controller guide (April 2026). Adjust steering deadzone to your pad's drift.

GTPlanet measured at least 15% more performance than the Ultra preset at 1440p with these settings. For upscaling: DLAA or native AA if you have headroom; otherwise DLSS or FSR Quality at 1080p, Quality or Balanced at 1440p, Performance at 4K. FSR can shimmer on the steering wheel in cockpit view, where DLSS did not.

From GTPlanet's AC EVO PC optimization guide (March 2026, v0.5; Ryzen 7 5800X, RX 6900 XT and RTX 2080). Need more GPU? See our PC guide.

AC EVO VR settings

Pimax's VR guide (July 2026) uses SteamVR at 90 Hz, MSAA 4x with FXAA, filmic AA off, textures Medium, vehicle LOD High, level of detail Low, ambient occlusion off, shadows Very Low, reflections and clouds Low, and a single medium-resolution mirror. Start there and raise detail only while you hold 90 fps. More in our VR settings guide.

Fixing common AC EVO problems

  • Wheel turns more or less than the car's wheel: match Steering lock to the wheel software's angle.
  • Flat in fast corners: clipping; lower FFB gain in game and keep the base high.
  • Feels slow or heavy: lower Dynamic damping, or try the zero-damper method.
  • Force feedback drops after alt-tab or replugging: wait a second; since v0.9 it recovers on its own.
  • Custom force curve: since v0.9 you can place an ffb.lut file (one input|output pair per line) in the AC EVO SavedGame folder.

FAQ

How do I set up AC EVO with a wheel?

Set the wheel software to 80 to 100% force and note its angle, set Steering lock in AC EVO to the same angle, then FFB gain 80%, Dynamic damping 40%, Minimum damper 0% and Damper gain 20% (Kunos's baseline). Lower FFB gain if it clips.

What are the best AC EVO FFB settings?

Kunos's baseline works for most direct drive bases: FFB gain 80%, Dynamic damping 40%, Minimum damper 0%, Damper gain 20%, lock matched to the base. Thrustmaster and Asetek use 0% on all three dampers instead.

What are the best AC EVO settings for a MOZA R5 or R9?

In Pit House: 1080°, intensity 90 to 100%, max torque about 8 Nm, damper 0 to 10%, inertia 100%, friction 10%. In game: lock 1080°, FFB gain 80%, Dynamic damping 40%, Minimum damper 0%, Damper gain 20%, Audio FFB 0%.

What are the best controller settings for Assetto Corsa EVO?

Steering deadzone 10% and curvature 10%, throttle deadzone 0% and curvature 10%, brake curvature 0%.

What are the best AC EVO graphics settings?

MSAA 2x with FXAA, Ultra LOD and anisotropic filtering, ambient occlusion Low, shadows Medium or High, car reflections Medium or High, grass Off or Low, clouds Low and medium mirrors: at least 15% faster than Ultra at 1440p in GTPlanet's test.

What's the difference between AC and AC EVO?

AC EVO is Kunos's successor to Assetto Corsa (2014), in Early Access since January 2025 with new physics, graphics and force feedback. The original has a vast mod library and runs on almost any PC.

What is the best steering wheel rotation for ACC?

900° in the wheel software with Steer lock 900 in ACC, or Auto on Fanatec. See our ACC settings.
