I like having a few percent off of Steering Outside just because I know I'm not always going to have the stick perfectly horizontal. If it's at 100 and I'm not perfectly horizontal I won't have the wheels fully turned as far as they could be.
This guide is great. Just recently switched to simulation steering and felt like a complete noob fishtailing all over the place with the game's default deadzones. Made the changes recommended in this video and it immediately felt more natural. Thanks Super GT!
Thank you for posting this video, I really hope it helps me as I'm really finding hard getting round a lot of the corners, it's like the cars won't turn and I'm forever rewinding
Thanks this helped a ton! It's weird that this and Project Cars 2 have such wonky default controls. I'm glad guys like you took the initiative to help us all out! I haven't really been into these type of racing games since Gran Turismo 2 many moons ago.
Thanks it helps me, I have always been gt player but after the disappointed 6th installment and the online turn in gt sport I changed to Forza 7 in pc, I'm very happy with the feel of the game, but somehow the steering with the gamepad was feeling bad to me compared to gt without any assistance, this solved a lot now I enjoy even more, thanks again.
Thanks a ton, man. The default settings were far too sensetive, almost as if the triggers acted as on/off buttons. Now I can actually control the amount I brake.
If i can make a suggestion. Set a lap time in a familiar car on your favourite track. Make adjustments to deadzones and gauge your laptimes. Reducing deadzones doesn't necessarily improve your driving style. FM5 definetely made a difference but not so much in FM6. Peace! LSR SkunkWorx
I consistently podium C Class online (my favorite class), is it really that bad? Sorry I'm not really a gamer. Only ever got obsessed with GT3 Aspec, FM4, and FM7, coincidentally only racing games I've ever owned
Thanks you earned a sub after helping me out with Project Cars 2 after i messed around with settings in a wacky manner and no default reset lol. and now this makes foza 7 feel as close to pc2 as possible. Just imagine if those 2 games had a baby....
You may have abandoned this game, but your videos are still a great help. As far as simcades go, this and GT4 on an emulator are the only good alternatives on PC imo.
Did I miss it or what about the "Steering Self Alignment" setting? Another video said set to 0 for RWD and 80--100 for AWD and FWD because it will cause snapping issues in RWD.
Hey bro thanks, the deceleration setting made the controls MUCH more comfortable for me. I tried to set my settings right and botched it but you smoothed it out a bunch for me. The acceleration settings are better too. Also I had my steering deadzone at 20 (which is a good setting for tracks like the tri oval where you want a little play in the middle for comfort) but 1 is a much tighter config for almost all the other tracks. Thanks again from KrabbyPatty678 :)
Shouldn't increasing the deadzone actually increase the sensitivity? Let's say you set your inner dead zone to 50 and you leave outer at 100. You now have 50 percent of motion that has to cover the 100 scale of the game. So in order to still be linear the game would need to scale the sensitivity up, in this case it would be 1 percent of motion equals 2 percent of throttle.
How come Turn10 didn't add a sensitivity setting in a racing game? I'm amazed by some of the Turn10 moves, especially removing the AI in a private lobby.
Hey I recently started getting into these racing titles (Forza, F1, DiRT, PC2...etc.) been watching your videos, however, I just purchased a Thrustmaster TX and I noticed that you don't have a video showing the wheel settings for it? Do you just not like using a wheel on Forza?
Valid point, I can see why.... Been using controllers since Gran Turismo 3, and just got this thing... I took a look around, some okay material, just nothing really clear. I ran into a couple comments stating that the "Simulation" Steering was made for the wheels.
I am failing to see why this is important and I'm sure it is but I still dont understand. Love you SuperGT, but I'm consistently grabbing podium Classes C and B and default has felt fine from the start for me. Granted I'm not really a gamer, just have gotten obsessed with racing games a few times in my life... will I be quicker if I switch to your settings and is default really that bad?
Oh wow! Are you the Forza fairy??? I am still finishing last in medium but thanks to you at least I am able to finish these races without crashing as much! :D
I hought u used a steering wheel cuz your steering is so smooth on all your videos, I've tried to get my steering down with a controller just can't do it but I'm gonna try this setup, all your videos crack me up by the way with the rammers
Do you think the Steering wheel is still worth it in this game? I'm thinking of trying to get the wheel out myself, but the settings were to confusing at the moment, your thoughts?
The FFB is decent, the wheel has progressive weight as you steer, but in terms of detail(slippage on acc or braking, kerbs) is not on par with other racing games, like ProjectCars2, Assetto, Automobilista, Dirt Rally etc. If you read the descriptions you'll get used with the settings and if you also are going to play other racing games it does worth getting one.
Hi, in forza 6 we just changed to automatic gear to manual gear and that's all, now in forza 7 i can't just change from automatic gear to manual gear, when in race the car brakes and change gears automaticatly, how can i change that?
No matter what I do, I still feel the sensitivity is too damn low. I feel like I’m not turning as much as I should and I’m just super confused, even with these settings
That's it's pretty common if you're switching between arcade games (Horizon) and a Sim-cade (Motorsport). In Horizon you are getting an impossible grip at mindless speed, meanwhile Motorsport is a bit more genuine. But then same issue happened to me when I switched from a Sim-cade to a proper simulator, You realize you can't throw any car you want into the corner like it's weightless and running on the rails, otherwise you will be just dying of death and meeting Barry R 😄
Why would a throttle deadzone reduce sensitivity? If you put it to 20 the movement you can regulate the acceleration with is more narrow. When you reach 20% and start accelerating each mm you press the trigger further it will now accelerate way more than with a 0% deadzone.
In another vid about learning to drive without abs...you say to use 60-70% braking to avoid locking. Would this work to set the upper limit to 80% max to avoid locking up,?
Super GT i need your help iam playing forza motorsport 7 and iam doing the muscle car race. And the car keeps over steering. This never happen to me using the jappenese cars. Is there a setting that help fix this?
Looks like we need a age restriction on players so you can have hoppers with 25+ aged players or 16-25 and 3-15 and so on so we can hopefully avoid squeaker noobery
I just got the game today. Went to MP first lobby 3 french guy's raging at one guy from the UK because the UK guy asked if they could talk english instead of french. Next thing i know my ear drums get blown up because the french guys start to whistle making pig noises so I agree with your idea ^^
I am 17 and I don’t look like, not talking about my body or something like that , I am talking about my mentality, I race cleanly, I respect other drivers, I am trying to help people slower than me, trying to improve with people faster than me. Don’t judge people by their age, judge people by their stupid actions
Ι have a problem with a controller. (Very cheap though) When i turn left or right , the car uses brake or hand brake. So basically CANT turn. What should i do ?
Its impossible to corner properly in this game. I am on expert settings with the settings in the video and you get get around some corners without almost slowing to a stop. By which time the cpu drivers have streamed past you. Its a great game apart from the corning which is a so clunky. It makes the game a total frustration and a complete waste of time
Yeah I have the same issue. Puchased the game as I see it is the #1 rated racing game, but the steering sucks. Can't dive into corners and can't accelerate much in mid corner. Permanently feels like the cars are understeering. Hope they will sort this out with FM8, as this makes the game really unpleasant and annoying.
My brakes are giving full power even though im not pressing down anything with the G29, just gives full brakes, i cant drive or anything please help!!!!
Set your inside deadzone to 0-10, based on your preference. But set the outside to the minimum, as well. That way your brake power is spread out along the entire trigger press, with no pressure being 0 brake force and max pressure being ~100%. Gives you better control for feathering.
Guys i need some help. Xbox live wont let me join Multiplayer. It says its a blocked privilege. But i can download designs and other stuff. Someone got an idea? Its an adult account and everything is set to "all"
There is no adjustment for steering with the controller. You have just shown how to adjust a dead zone. Once you get out of that dead zone you have still got a very sensitive steering and need only move it 1 mm at a time and that is hard to do. This is totally rubbish for steering accurate with a controller. So basically the steering is full on or really nothing. Lots of issues with this banger racing game.
A very good and a very detailed video. Thanks for the controller tips. 🎮💯
I like having a few percent off of Steering Outside just because I know I'm not always going to have the stick perfectly horizontal. If it's at 100 and I'm not perfectly horizontal I won't have the wheels fully turned as far as they could be.

Good to hear, glad it worked for you.
How to change the color to blue to red
Changed the game for me. Adjusted it to the same settings and now the car(s) feel much more responsive. Nicely done, thanks.
Thank you for posting this video, I really hope it helps me as I'm really finding hard getting round a lot of the corners, it's like the cars won't turn and I'm forever rewinding

Hey i am 65 and this is a kids game with lots of driving issues. Its just glorified banger racing.
If i can make a suggestion. Set a lap time in a familiar car on your favourite track. Make adjustments to deadzones and gauge your laptimes. Reducing deadzones doesn't necessarily improve your driving style. FM5 definetely made a difference but not so much in FM6. Peace! LSR SkunkWorx
This saved my ass ty! The default settings r god awful don't know what they were thinking.
Default noob settings 🤣
I consistently podium C Class online (my favorite class), is it really that bad? Sorry I'm not really a gamer. Only ever got obsessed with GT3 Aspec, FM4, and FM7, coincidentally only racing games I've ever owned
We have such similar settings :3 i suppose itd help with racing too.
Great minds think alike clearly.
Just used this for FM8. Still works great!
Super useful. The explanation in game is kinda off so this has allowed me to get it just right. Thanks pal.
Thanks you earned a sub after helping me out with Project Cars 2 after i messed around with settings in a wacky manner and no default reset lol. and now this makes foza 7 feel as close to pc2 as possible. Just imagine if those 2 games had a baby....
I just seen this vid now and it totally fixed my problem of super touchy steering thank you sooo much !!!
I used your settings and saw immediate improvement. Thank you for sharing!
You may have abandoned this game, but your videos are still a great help. As far as simcades go, this and GT4 on an emulator are the only good alternatives on PC imo.

Had my inside deadzones at 50%. Oh what was I thinking. Thank you Super GT!
Thank you! This really helped me. Just bought the game and had a hard time playing it because the default settings are very weird.
Wow thanks mate this helped me SO much! The default settings are awful. I can actually control the car now.
Great explanation, but I must ask... why different settings than F6? I know you were recommending 15 instead of zero. What changed?
I personally liked the default gamepad settings. No problems what so ever. Have happy X-mas! =)
Thanks for the help this game is so smooth the graphics are awesome
Hey bro thanks, the deceleration setting made the controls MUCH more comfortable for me. I tried to set my settings right and botched it but you smoothed it out a bunch for me.

Very glad i watched this. Eager to try this out thanks a lot
Thanks man I'll try this can't be anyworse than boat default turning settings gt
Whatever you do, turn off the camera effects. Why in the world is that horrible shaking enabled by default??
HBSanta i think it is for speed effect
HBSanta ikr. It looks awful. That was the first thing i turned off.
Oh yes, that's the first thing I turned off.
yea, chase far is awful. cockpit and chase near isnt as noticeable.
Lol, the “simulation” camera, me too turned it on to “normal”.
Thanks bro, this really help to get a better car response
Good to hear, glad it helped.

Yes, from that point of view you are totally correct.
Plays great now. Thanks!!

Thank you! It feels so much better
Thank you very much! See you again at FM8!
Hey I recently started getting into these racing titles (Forza, F1, DiRT, PC2...etc.) been watching your videos, however, I just purchased a Thrustmaster TX and I noticed that you don't have a video showing the wheel settings for it? Do you just not like using a wheel on Forza?
I've always maintained that using a controller is the better option for Forza motorsport. There may be some settings videos out there on YT though
Valid point, I can see why.... Been using controllers since Gran Turismo 3, and just got this thing... I took a look around, some okay material, just nothing really clear. I ran into a couple comments stating that the "Simulation" Steering was made for the wheels.

Good to hear!
Thank you mate and your project cars 2 video helps alot too:)
Good to hear!
What controller do you use???
Thanks!!!!!! I used your settings in Forza 6 too.
I hought u used a steering wheel cuz your steering is so smooth on all your videos, I've tried to get my steering down with a controller just can't do it but I'm gonna try this setup, all your videos crack me up by the way with the rammers
I have the same problem, I'm starting to think the precision comes with experience.
Do you think the Steering wheel is still worth it in this game? I'm thinking of trying to get the wheel out myself, but the settings were to confusing at the moment, your thoughts?

xTheTranceFreakx the virtual steering wheel turns only 90 degrees and my Logitech G920 turns 900 degrees. That sucks
Cheers mate your the best
Steering is set to "Normal" or "Simulation" in the settings?
Hi, in forza 6 we just changed to automatic gear to manual gear and that's all, now in forza 7 i can't just change from automatic gear to manual gear, when in race the car brakes and change gears automaticatly, how can i change that?

THX for your Video and your Settings !
Now i'm a much better Driver ^^
No matter what I do, I still feel the sensitivity is too damn low. I feel like I’m not turning as much as I should and I’m just super confused, even with these settings
Then u r going to fast

Yeah, roughly 80% and below is good. Just experiment yourself with what % is needed to lock the brakes.

Any idea what do do if my deadzone settings dont actually affect my game?
Looks like we need a age restriction on players so you can have hoppers with 25+ aged players or 16-25 and 3-15 and so on so we can hopefully avoid squeaker noobery
Mc Bradas You know you can mute people right?
I'm 12 and I don't slam people when I try to overtake them
I just got the game today. Went to MP first lobby 3 french guy's raging at one guy from the UK because the UK guy asked if they could talk english instead of french. Next thing i know my ear drums get blown up because the french guys start to whistle making pig noises so I agree with your idea ^^

Don’t judge people by their age, judge people by their stupid actions
are these the default settings? I dont have the game. Im just curious
sbn025 No, the default inside deadzones range from 10 to 24, the outside ones from 90 to 100 and the vibration scale is on 100 (if that matters) :)
Same for the new Forza Motorsport?
Pretty much
Holy shit what a difference 🫢🫢🫢🫢🫢
Ι have a problem with a controller. (Very cheap though)
When i turn left or right , the car uses brake or hand brake. So basically CANT turn.
What should i do ?
Check your button mapping.
@@Super_GT nothing happens.... but the keyboard has no problem....but I don't like keyboard...
@@Super_GT what controller are you using?
Yesssss.. your acc the best😂
Can this one be good for drifting
Gonna try these later, standard settings feel shit snd like you can’t control the car smoothly round corners
Its impossible to corner properly in this game. I am on expert settings with the settings in the video and you get get around some corners without almost slowing to a stop. By which time the cpu drivers have streamed past you. Its a great game apart from the corning which is a so clunky. It makes the game a total frustration and a complete waste of time

why would anyone need to change these? Default is fine for me, I'd understand for wheels but for controller default controls have always been fine imo
xboxgamer969 If you want the last few tenths each lap, you need yo make the controller setup suit the way you drive. if default suits you, then good.
Why would you switch the clutch and handbrake?
So that you can just press the A button nearly simultaneously with the X/B buttons. It just makes shifting easier.
To me, the LB being the clutch is much easier and enjoyable.
My brakes are giving full power even though im not pressing down anything with the G29, just gives full brakes, i cant drive or anything please help!!!!

Call microsoft, they can see what the problem is. and give you the best answer. helped for mee. ( port forwarding was the problem for me )
Definitely Port/NAT Problem, open them in ur Router
Your correct and incorrect the stick has a greater range then permitter
Forgive my language but thank you so fucking much!
Seems like you used total different settings in forza 6
They're not too different. Plus, I did change my settings from the video I originally made on F6.
There is no adjustment for steering with the controller. You have just shown how to adjust a dead zone.

Gran Turismo will be better
Who the fuck cares, they won't even be competing at all as they're both exclusive to different consoles. What a pointless thing to even compare...
MrMonty23 When I found out that GTS will not have GT Mode, I cancelled my preorder and bought f7. fuk gt
Jonezyx Was just creating conversation hahaha
GosumassB You can chill out dude hahaha, just my opinion might not be factual information.
Jonezyx Exactly, I will own both at some point soon.
