Steering Ratio

[sketch]

Set non-linearity to 0. Everything else wouldn't feel right with a steering wheel.
Non-linearity is only for keyboard or gamepad where you don't want your input to turn the wheel to the maximum instantly.

Well, not necessarily, a small amount of non-linearity might work nicely with a wheel. Some cars out there have variable steering ratios, which typically allow for less-sensitive steering near center, and more-sensitive steering away from center. A small amount of non-linearity would be okay and not too unnatural.

This is an old thread, but I have an old wheel at the moment, so here is my experience.

I have a Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Racing Wheel v1.0 which that was sitting on a shelf. When my brother introduced me to ETS, I was hooked and fetched to old gal off the shelf. It has the total turn capacity of about 270°. I used it for the first week with a small configured deadzone. After a week I removed the dead-zone and my experience increased 10 fold! I also use the non-linearity setting of the ETS2 game for the first 60° or so each way, for slight turns and corrections, etc. The last about 90° is then left for sharper turns. Sensitivity is almost 0. Its works so well that my brother who used to make fun of my slow driving (to maintain control) can now hardly keep up with his G29!

The wheel has eight programmable buttons and two pedals with a USB connector, no force feedback, and self-centering. I drive with it in true automatic mode. It is no G nor TMX, but gets me immersed nonetheless.
