    Is there any way to decrease the smoothing amount for each adjustment point when using the main level adjustment? The difference for me from 100 percent to 99 percent is quite large and 99 gives me a bigger effect then I want. Is there a config file or something like that can be edited perhaps?

    I upgraded my controller card on my prosimu rig which made more detail come through which increased the need for more smoothing. I can solve it with smoothing each axis/dof, but it's easier to use the main level sometimes.

    Could you please post pictures of all of your settings, as there are a number of ways to give global and specific smoothing effects.

    For example in addition to the smoothing filter a higher Tuning Center value can help smooth an axis over a greater range, you can also use the Game Manager Profile Editor to reduce the Intensity Level, which will give a sort of global smoothing, or create a Profile and make Car/Track specific tweaks similar to the Tuning Center approach, but in a more refined way.

    Hello, ok so I have looked closer at this. I've used simtools for about two years now. I did an upgrade of my prosimu controller box which made it more sensitive. I also re-installed simtools. I don't know if the re-install has anything to do with this, but main level % is not working as it has been. Going from 100% to 99% makes the motion super slow. Driving of a curb with 100 % the motion is fast and firm. With 99% it takes almost a second or so for the actuator to reach this position. Its weird and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced something like this and if there is a config file where I can check the values involved in the main level.
