SimSightline / Simagic Alpha EVO Settings
Simagic Alpha EVO Settings
Start from the game preset in SimPro Manager, keep force feedback at 100% there, and do the scaling in the game. Here is what each SimPro setting does, published values for iRacing, ACC, LMU and AC EVO, and how they change between the 9, 12 and 18 Nm bases.
Start here: Simagic Alpha EVO setup
- Update SimPro Manager and the base firmware.
- Load the game preset for your sim and turn on Auto Switch Preset so it changes when the game starts.
- Keep Force Feedback at 100% in SimPro and scale strength in the game. Only lower it in SimPro if the game still clips with its own gain low.
- Set the in-game values for your sim below, then fine-tune damping, friction and wheel speed in SimPro one at a time.
| Base | Peak torque | iRacing Wheel Force |
|---|---|---|
| Alpha EVO Sport | 9 Nm | 9 Nm |
| Alpha EVO | 12 Nm | 12 Nm |
| Alpha EVO Pro | 18 Nm | 18 Nm |
SimPro Manager values: iRacing and ACC presets
| SimPro setting | iRacing (Coach Dave) | ACC (Simagic) |
|---|---|---|
| Angle / Hard lock angle | 900° / 900° | 900° / 900° |
| Limit strength | Normal | Normal |
| Force feedback | 100% | 100% (preset may load at 95%) |
| Filter level | 5 | 2 |
| Wheel rotation speed | 50 | 35 |
| Feedback detail | 12 | 20 |
| Dynamic prediction level | 0 | 1 |
| Mechanical damper | 35% | 18% |
| Mechanical friction | 5% | 15% |
| Mechanical inertia | 0% | 0% |
| Slew rate control | 25 | 30% |
| Game inertia / centering / damper / friction | n/a | 100 |
iRacing column: Coach Dave Academy's Simagic guide (July 2025) for the 9, 12 and 18 Nm EVO bases. ACC column: Simagic's own ACC video (June 2025), compiled by SimRacingCockpit. Simagic does not publish slider values for its other presets; load them and adjust from there.
What each SimPro Manager setting does
- Force feedback: overall output of the base. Keep at 100% and scale in the game.
- Filter level: smooths the signal; higher is smoother, lower is more raw detail.
- Wheel rotation speed: caps how fast the wheel can spin; lower adds a damped feel but can slow quick corrections.
- Feedback detail: how much fine road and tyre detail comes through.
- Dynamic prediction level: predicts the signal to cut latency; 0 or 1 in the published presets.
- Mechanical damper, friction, inertia: base-side weight and calming. The lighter EVO Sport and EVO benefit from a little more damping; on the EVO Pro, a lower rotation speed and less damping feel more natural.
- Slew rate control: limits sudden force changes, softening harsh kerb hits.
Model notes from SimRacingCockpit's Simagic iRacing guide (September 2026).
Simagic Alpha EVO iRacing settings
| iRacing setting | EVO Sport (9 Nm) | EVO (12 Nm) | EVO Pro (18 Nm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wheel force | 9 Nm | 12 Nm | 18 Nm |
| Strength (start) | 1.8 | 2.2 | 3.5 |
| Intensity | 50% | 50% | 50% |
| Linear mode | On | On | On |
| Smoothing / Damping / Min force | 0 / 0 / 0% | 0 / 0 / 0% | 0 / 0 / 0% |
| Reduce force when parked | On | On | On |
The Strength values are Coach Dave Academy's starting points. Simagic's own method is to drive a few laps and press Auto in the F9 black box per car, with Wheel force Auto off. Either way, if it clips, lower Force Feedback in SimPro or use Auto again. More in our iRacing FFB settings.
Simagic Alpha EVO ACC settings
- In ACC: Gain 60% or below (49% in Simagic's video), Minimum force 0%, Damper 0%, Dynamic damping 100%, Road effects 0% (under 10%), Frequency 400 Hz, Steer lock 900°, Steer linearity 1.00, Brake gamma 1.00.
- SimPro: AC Competizione preset with the values in the table above.
- Simagic's Alvin Wong runs his EVO Pro with inertia 6%, dynamic prediction 1, low wheel speed, moderate mechanical damper, and low game damper and friction.
More in our ACC settings.
Simagic Alpha EVO Le Mans Ultimate settings
- SimPro: Le Mans Ultimate preset for your base, Auto Switch on, output 100% (the preset already inverts force feedback, so leave Invert off in game).
- In LMU: Use steering range from vehicle on, Use maximum rotation from driver on, Strength to taste, Smoothing 5 or more if bumps are harsh, lower Collision strength if crashes and kerbs spike; the rest default or off.
- Car feels light at low speed (especially Hypercars)? Add a little mechanical friction in SimPro.
From Simagic's LMU video (June 2025) via SimRacingCockpit. More in our LMU settings.
Simagic Alpha EVO Assetto Corsa EVO settings
- In AC EVO: Steering lock same as the base, FFB gain 80% then adjust, Dynamic damping 40%, Minimum damper 0%, Damper gain 20%.
- SimPro: Assetto Corsa EVO preset, 1080° angle and hard lock, limit strength normal, smoothness 0, wheel rotation speed 50, feedback detail 0, mechanical damper 2%, friction 10%, inertia 0%.
- Kunos's guide was written for a 15.4 Nm Alpha U set to about 8 Nm (52%). That suggests about 85–90% on an EVO Sport, 65–70% on an EVO and 45% on an EVO Pro for the same output: our calculation, not Simagic's.
From Kunos's AC EVO wheel setup guide, compiled by SimRacingCockpit. AC EVO is in Early Access (v0.9), so re-check after updates. All wheels and graphics: AC EVO settings.
Fixing common Alpha EVO problems
- Wheel oscillates on straights: raise mechanical damper a few percent or lower wheel rotation speed.
- Kerbs too harsh: raise slew rate control or filter level slightly.
- Flat in fast corners: clipping. Lower in-game gain (ACC, AC EVO) or press Auto again (iRacing).
- Too light at low speed: add a little mechanical friction.

FAQ
What are the best Simagic Alpha EVO settings?
Load the game's preset in SimPro Manager with Auto Switch on and Force Feedback at 100%, then use the in-game values above. For iRacing: Wheel force 9, 12 or 18 Nm, Linear on, Strength via Auto (or 1.8, 2.2 or 3.5 to start).
What are the best Simagic Alpha EVO iRacing settings?
Wheel force to your base (9, 12 or 18 Nm), Linear mode on, Intensity 50%, Smoothing, Damping and Min force 0, and Strength set with Auto in the F9 black box. In SimPro: filter 5, wheel speed 50, detail 12, mechanical damper 35%, friction 5%.
What are the best Simagic Alpha EVO Pro settings?
The same presets as the other EVO bases, with Wheel force 18 Nm and a starting Strength of 3.5 in iRacing. SimRacingCockpit suggests a lower wheel rotation speed and less damping on the Pro for a natural feel.
What are the best Simagic Alpha EVO ACC settings?
Gain 60% or below (Simagic used 49%), Minimum force 0%, Dynamic damping 100%, Road effects 0%, 400 Hz, Steer lock 900°, with the AC Competizione preset in SimPro.
Should I lower Force Feedback in SimPro Manager or in the game?
Keep SimPro at 100% and scale in the game. Lower SimPro only if the game still clips with its own strength or gain turned down.
