We only list what affects FFB in AMS2. Leave the rest of the software (FFB curve, equaliser, wheel presets, calibration) at its defaults.

Model notes

Same base as the CSL DD with PlayStation support: identical settings.
Keep LFB almost off on direct drive bases.
If the wheel oscillates on straights, increase damping before lowering Gain.

What each setting does, its range and what we set for AMS2. Anything without a value, leave at default.
