Car-Specific Settings Menu

Suggestions Hub Motorsport Features Menus & Interface

How about adding a menu that’s specific to settings of that car?

It’s a menu similar to the tuning menu, but is for settings that have nothing to do with performance related setup.

Settings that can be found in this menu:

  • Steering wheel related settings
    (FFB settings currently found under tunes, not accessible when renting a car)

  • Camera settings
    (camera offset (much requested feature!), different FOV)

  • Audio levels/settings
    (not all cars are as loud, specific audio levels for engine, tires, transmission, exhaust burble, etc.)

  • HUD settings
    (setting for the analog style tacho on older cars and digital for new)

  • Car specific assist settings
    (overruling general setting, like forcing TCS/ABS off on cars that don’t have it stock)

  • Other?

This menu should be accessible in the home menu when you’ve selected a car, the menu before the race and when doing a Test Drive under the ‘Car’ tab. These settings should always be available, even when renting a car.

Maybe also make it possible to save these settings like you can with tunes.

Let me know what you think of this idea!

This is a brilliant idea actually

Thank you! I believe this would be a great QoL improvement for the game.

It would be good if we could set the POV for every car separetly like the forcefeedback.

Auto-switch Tachometer/Speedometer between Analog/Digital based on what cars you get into depending on what type of Tachometer/Speedometer the car has in its cluster when in the car (Cockpit Camera View) in Forzavista as well as in the Horizon in the car (Cockpit Camera View).

A nice option with this would be the possiblity to save the settings like a tune. This way you can switch between different presets you’ve made (for different uses) and share you settings with others.

It would be preferred that these presets are shared as ‘unlocked’, so you can always copy/adjust the values and settings.

Car specific controller settings would also be nice. Sensitivity / linearity / etc.

Voted. :+1:
Compared to things like complex real-time physics, I’m inclined to think that QoL features like this are much simpler to implement - and they add so much to games.

Could someone with photoshop talent maybe make a concept of what this could look like?

Great idea, If its too complicated to implement just start with multiple savings of the settings (specifically for the wheel) for various conditions.

It would be great if the Drivers Aids Like ABS, Traction Control & Stability Control were set in the Car Setting not as a Global Game Setting because some of the High HP Supercars and Race Cars can benefit from Driver Aids but many of the Low Powered Sports Cars Run much better with No Driver Aids

For TCS and ABS this still requires the player to actually look up the car to determine what the authentic setting is. Less than ideal IMO.

For that a “Factory” option would be nice, automatically setting it to whatever it is in real life.
