1. Basic FFB Effects¶
Unlike everything else in this reference, these effects are not telemetry-driven. They apply constant device-level forces per aircraft, on top of whatever the active VPforce Configurator profile provides - each expressed as a percentage of the corresponding Configurator slider value. They appear under the Basic FFB Effects section of the Settings tab.
The Low Hydraulic Pressure Effect and Steering Friction build on these overrides - they need the relevant override enabled, with headroom left below 100%.
1.1 Damper Override¶
DCS IL2 BMS MSFS XP · All devices
Smooths and resists stick motion - velocity-proportional resistance.
| Sub-setting | Sims | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Damper Effect | — | Apply damper to axes. Results in percent of configurator slider value |
1.2 Inertia Override¶
DCS IL2 BMS MSFS XP · All devices
Adds apparent mass to the controls - acceleration-proportional resistance.
| Sub-setting | Sims | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Inertia Effect | — | Apply inertia to axes. Results in percent of configurator slider value |
1.3 Friction Override¶
DCS IL2 BMS MSFS XP · All devices
Constant sliding resistance to stick motion.
| Sub-setting | Sims | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Friction Effect | — | Apply friction to axes. Results in percent of configurator slider value |
1.4 Enable Configurator Deadzone¶
DCS IL2 BMS MSFS XP · All devices
An always-on circular deadzone, equivalent to setting a deadzone in the Configurator - but configurable per aircraft.
| Sub-setting | Sims | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Deadzone % | — | Always on circular deadzone equivalent to setting deadzone in configurator |
