Pedal Effects
Almost effects is trigger by simhub, so make sure the usb data connection from PC to esp32 is good.
The effects can be enable or disable by a simhub dashboard overlay or simhub actions binding.
ABS effect is trigger by telemetry dats through Simhub, some sims didnt provide the data(like WRC, DirtRally or GT series), the effects will not be triggered on those sims, alternative way was Wheelslip effect or simulated ABS effect.
TC effect is only can be trigger by telemetry data through Simhub, no alternative way for now.
Here is the demo video:
The Abs effect can be observed started from 5s.
The effect Amplitude value was recommend set 5% of the force range.
This option is for those sims didnt support ABS telemetry data output and didnt didnt support wheelslip calculation.
After enable the option, the red slider in Force-Travel curve will appear, the trigger value can be set via the slider.
Min value is 50%, Max value is 95% of total force output.
After enable the option, send config to pedal is needed, the simulated ABS effect calculated by ESP32, not simhub.
The effect simulate the vibration cause from engine cycle.
The effect amplitude will increase by the Engine RPM, when meet the max RPM, it will increase 30% of the set amplitude.
The amplitude was recommend set to 0.3-0.5% of total force range.
The effect min frequency is set to emulate the low RPM state, and max freqency is set when RPM reach to MAX value.
Here is the demo video:
The effect can be observed from the begining, the sled was move it self with oscillation.
If the sims didnt provide the data, alternative way is speed rumble option.
The effect was gave the user know the pedal travel with vibration notification.
Just like simulated ABS option, the amplitude and frequency can be set.
Once enable the effect, the blue slider will appear in Force-travel curve tab, the trigger value can be set via the slider.
The range of notification will be +/- 4% of travel range.
The effect is emulate the g-force apply on the leg, when in the high g force situation, the pedal travel will feel be shorten.
The effect multiplier is for the strength of shorten range.
The effect smoothness is for the effect filter, small number will feel sharp reaction, including the gear shifting.
The smoothness goes higher(about 60) can filter out the shake when shifting, but it will slow dow the reaction.
Current effect only apply on Brake.
Here is the demo video:
The effect can be observed from 2s, when braking from 300km/h the travel range was shorter than brake from 0km/h.
The effect value was get from shake-it plugin, need be set the output property first.
The effect is a notification when wheel close to slip. So can be an alternative way for the sims didnt provide ABS telemetry data if well setting.
Trigger value can be set from 50-100% depend on how the feeling and close to ABS kicking off.
Amplitude and frenquency setting is similiar to ABS effect.
The effect value is come from shake-it plugin in road impact section, will need set the output property to use it.
It calculate the suspension movement to represent on the pedal travel change. The foot will feel Pedal is pushing.
Multiplier and smootheness setting is similiar to G force effect.
Here is the demo video:
The effect can be observed at 5s, after drive on kurb and grass, the pedal is moved back and forth to emulate suspension movement change.
