Rally1 Hybrid Boost System EXPLAINED! | EA Sports WRC

[@bassmasta9117]

Haven't watched your vids in nearly 2 years since I stopped playing Dirt Rally 2.0 but my passion has been reignited with EA sports WRC. Had to come back here for this and the FFB settings

[@cjscarchannel6529]

One thing we ran into at Codemasters, is some pedals dont goto 0% and you need it to goto 0% for Regen to Work. now if you have a dodgy pedal or calibration, add a bit more Deadzone and Regen will work flawlessly again.

[@kingdavid4886]

Thanks for your setups over the years, helped me understand how the car works. (overwhelmed with all the settings) lol. You should definitely talk more, sound natural. Just curious will you still play Dirt 2.0 or just WRC? Do you like the WRC over Dirt 2.0 at this stage? (maybe even a video comparing the two what you like, or dont like. If its to much to answer here) Would love to here your view, full respect man.

[@zHero2TTV]

Thank you for what u doing!! Can’t wait to see first Rally 1 setup ❤️

[@showracing7671]

@@RALLYTechnical You sound lovely, but you do need to turn up your mic a bit!

[@Pescelsen]

Nice to hear your voice and love to see more videos like this. i'm wondering a long time ago, if it is possible to put some more general infos to the setup videos for example; what surface need what settings for dampers/springs/ride height in general, maybe compared to other similar surfaces, when to change the diffs in for each country, not only specific for the car, more in general, so i can try to change it by myself instead of copy paste your (amazing) setups. sometimes i didn't understand, why these setting changes, or what they change, so i need to learn and understand this more. i learned so much with your setup videos, but i need to learn so much more. would be nice to hear more voice in your videos. Thanks for every video you made/make!

[@cybersteel8]

The hardest part is the linearity of the pedal. To get any speed, but not activate the boost (on cautious) I gotta accelerate CLOSE to the line but not go over. It's quite difficult to get into that position, while also focusing on the corner exit. Any small mistake and you will lose all your boost because, as demonstrated, if boost is active and you go below the line, you lose it all. It's quite punishing! I wish I could change the linearity of the throttle so I can fine tune my control over the boost based on my simrig's pedal.

[@LBPreviews]

If you have a dualsense controller on PC, you can set up resistance values on the triggers via dualsenseX. I'm going to do this now. This will inform your trigger fingers when you're on and off the boost. (putting this comment here for others, since it's useless for wheel drivers)

[@mrbeckham666]

Therefore, it seems to me that the best sensible choice is an aggressive throttle, then at least you won't waste the boost

[@RichardBuggy]

If you are getting no regen on braking. Add a 1% deadzone to your throttle settings, and it should fix your problem.

[@finest_ambitions1899]

This fixed it for me. Thanks!

[@RALLYTechnical]

Yes, as shown in the video. If you are on throttle you won't regen. That includes the throttle registering an input even if you are not touching it and even dirty or worn potentiometers that are causing a flicking effect while being used.

[@Kefke20Rallysport]

Also fixed it for me thanks a lot!

[@deltazero3796]

Nice to hear you sir, your material about FFB setup for G29 help me a lot. Many thanks 😊❤

[@triskis2000]

I know how to use the hybrid yet, but I wanted to leave here my "thanks" to you.

[@RALLYTechnical]

Thank you for your comment.

[@oliese]

The annoying part is that in real WRC they can lift and even brake and they dont lose the boost, they just dont regenerate until the boost is used Example: They use 50% of the boost bar, they come up to a corner were they brake and when they go on the throttle at the corner exit they use the remaining 50% they had left on the bar. And then in the next braking zone they recharge again and the circle starts again

[@chrismannik]

This is how it should be and as it was in WRC Generations. There is no logic in losing the boost as soon as you let the throttle below the line. Where does the remaining energy go? EA needs to fix this and make it as realistic as it is in Rally1 cars.

[@rallybusted2356]

thanks you TELL THIS GUY YOU CANNOT HIT UR BRAKE OR EBRAKE ONCE U HAVE ENGAGED THE BOOST W THE THROTTLE

[@LeviewFPV]

Thanks for these videos mate. and kudos for taking the leap and talking in your vids, keep it up! Only suggestion, try to lower the gain levels on your mic so it doesn't saturate on certain words! practice makes perfect my man.

[@RALLYTechnical]

There's settings for mic's? 🤯 Must, become, greatest ever, at tuning, mic's! 🤣 Seriously though, I don't have clue when it comes to mic settings other than the OBS volume levels. I only have the mic on my Logitech G733 headset and I can't remember seeing to many settings for it in G-HUB.

[@RALLYTechnical]

i just looked on G HUB. I lied! there are a load of settings that i have no clue how to adjust 😅

[@HumanDevilTV]

Thanks for the guide! Really helped me understanding the hybrid system. Would you be down for making a general setup video, explaining how to set up the car and what option influences the car in what way? Dev's tips are really lacking in explanation there and I hope you could explain that.

[@SimpleBanana]

Appreciate you dude. Do you think you could make a video going over some basic tuning theory while we wait for setups? Mostly just how to tune for different surfaces and drivetrains.

Good job mate. 🔥🔥🔥

[@RALLYTechnical]

Thanks 🔥

[@YJDWk]

Thanks for your vids. Been a long time lurker for DR2.0 Setups. Hands down the best I've found! Question: Why did they implement the boost so that once you go below the activation point that any boost you had left is lost? Do you know if thats how it works irl? Appreciate your videos and looking forward to some car setups :)

[@RALLYTechnical]

So, the reason they did it is because that's how it works irl. What's not included in the game is the charge state of the battery, which is what irl drivers have to think about as well. So they may want to forfeit the boost in order to charge the battery for later on when they need it most.

[@drnhara]

@@RALLYTechnical So in Real Life if you mess up the Boost and only get it for a splitsecond your next recharge will be a lot quicker?

[@RALLYTechnical]

@drnhara no, recharge length will remain the same. As you have to put the same amount of energy into it to activate the boost. irl drivers would do this to keep the battery charged.

[@gearoidnyhan9226]

Super Helpful Video, great to hear your voice

[@AlexWilliams-gn6ud]

Strange thing is that if you lift off the throttle or brake while on boost, you lose all the charge. Not sure if that's how it works IRL...Like you said though, have to change our driving style 💪🏽

[@willzhuyx]

In real life, when the battery is fully charged, the hybrid system would just pause if u lift off the throttle or brake and engage again if u used the throttle until the battery is empty. The setting now is just ridiculous and makes the hybrid system useless in most times.

[@iamzeusandthisisthetruth4229]

Thank you for the fix on Charging! EA was to lazy, to say this on TWITTER????? They HAD To KNOW, it was this!!!!!

[@milsluc9813]

Thank you for these explanations. Top video. 👍 Best wishes. 😉

[@chrispease6939]

Just found that this game is out being announced on dirt 2.0 lol. And thought of you if you made setups yet. The game looks fun !

[@mrbeckham666]

I have already checked all the ways to make frametime more stable and in fact the only option that brings a lot is to reduce the graphics and block FPS using the riva tuner. ideally, when the card works at about 80%, then the frametime becomes stable and there are practically no cuts. so as usual, in my experience, only the option that works in most cases has worked, and the rest is unfortunately a placebo that works sometimes better and sometimes worse.

[@joshoneil2263]

Cheers buddy, nice work.

[@LBPreviews]

I used your setups for all of my DR2.0 cars, and idk why but I always imagined you were Brazilian or somewhere in South America. Hmm I just realized I can set custom profiles via DualSenseX, so the adaptive trigger puts up a gamecube controller'esque resistance right before the throttle will hit the boost values.

[@schmid1.079]

It's quite odd how it works. The system seems to reward very aggressive throttle imput. I find myself missing out on the boost 90% of the time. But judging from some onboard footage, that seems to apply to real drivers too. Maybe the FIA just wanted them to run electric on transfer, without having to worry about 500+ hp cars on stage. :P

[@RALLYTechnical]

Yes, it happens to the real drivers too. It's something we have to get used to using. However codies have made it a little easier with Patch 1.3 for the game. We can now have up to 10% throttle during regen. Which I believe many players will appreciate.

[@helvetikko]

Hi, great video. Hoy did u actívate the throttle and brake inputs to show on screen?

[@wolfe1970]

My problem of driving 4x4 rally cars for the past 20 years is you full throttle when drifting the car around corners and that eats all the hybrid up before the straight, wish it worked via a button on the wheel, gonna take alot to change my driving style

[@notdreadyet33]

Do you think your old setups will work? Seems like they should, the setup menus are the same.

[@RALLYTechnical]

Tried, tested, found a tree or 3 as a result. It's easy to think they would work but the stages are different, the grip the tyres have is different and the road surface is a lot more detailed. The setup layout is the same but things have definitely changed behind the scenes.

[@notdreadyet33]

@@RALLYTechnical Thank you, that makes sense. Do you have any tips or a rule of things for ride height in Sweden/snow?

[@toshidaboshi]

What I don't understand is: Why does battery go to 0% if i spend only 50% of it?

[@RALLYTechnical]

Ok, so. The gauge is not the battery charge overall. It is your allowance of the battery for that one single boost 👍

[@toshidaboshi]

@@RALLYTechnical Aha I see thanks! Really tricky to use effectively. Big challenge for me!

[@EnzoRacer1]

so it's worked same way as in WRC Generations, right?

[@mrbeckham666]

now I know why most of the gameplay that I watched on Logitech, the boost didn't work there :) because you know how Logitech works when even a little bit of dirt gets in there :)

[@GrubyRally]

I have problems with boost. For me, it just disappear on start. Even tho I have throttle pressed on max, let of handbrake and it just *poof* disappear. Sam problem during the stage, I brake hard, load hybrid on 100% and then I start accelerating and it disappears. Although during stage is less likely to happen. On start I don't have hybrid 90% of the time

[@RALLYTechnical]

Check your inputs in the controller tab to make sure your inputs are matching what you do. You could have a sensor issue by the sounds of it.

[@speedlimitviolationspecialist]

how do you get the accel and brake overlay?

[@b-rawentertainment7814]

Is there any way to see the turbo stuff without the overlay? Thinking of VR and HUD off immersion. Loving the game so far!

[@cybersteel8]

I couldn't find a way, the only place the hybrid info is provided is on that tachometer hud element, so in VR you'll probably keep it enabled. Granted, if the real rally drivers don't have that information (they don't have a HUD :P ), you may not need it either!

[@RivanovNL]

Which handbrake do you use? I'm using Sim-Lab XB1 but at the start it says X-Axis Hold Handbrake and it doesn't show the handbrake icon. In your video it shows the Handbrake icon...

[@RALLYTechnical]

Fanatec Clubsport handbrake V1.5 is what I am using. Running it through the wheelbase as well.

[@toweleeielite]

why does it give full boost until you let off the throttle then theres no boost when throttling back up? is that the way it works? its quite difficult not activating it by accident then you lose full boost because youve had to back off slightly....... could do with an on/off button to its only active when on and past 75%......

[@RALLYTechnical]

That's the way it works. You have to be 100% certain when you go over the line that you don't have to left off. You have to incorporate it into your driving style to take advantage of it. It will take time to get used to but you will get used to it.

[@maurogodderis5148]

That’s pretty strange. Do we have to brake about 60% to recharge it? Or is more also possible, been on the brakes a few times at 100%, but never had the recharge button green again during a stage

[@RALLYTechnical]

You have to be 60-100% on the brakes to regen. 60% is the minimum. If you didn't regen, then you were also pressing the throttle. or, locked up.

[@maurogodderis5148]

@@RALLYTechnical aaah, that might be the reason why it didn’t work

[@xfixdonz]

So if you tune high braking force you never going to be able to recharge the boost? If you're never pressing the pedal atleast 60 %?

[@RALLYTechnical]

Yes it seems minimum 60%, although you wouldn't charge on a high brake pressure because you will most likely have locked the wheels under braking anyway.

[@xfixdonz]

@@RALLYTechnical Could you do more testing to see how the braking regen works? For me it feels like, that the regen amount is dependent on time how long are you on the brake pedal over 60%, not how hard you brake. So in theory setting up the car to run low brake pressure could farm you more boost, than high brake pressure? Also I hate how the boost deployment works. That you loose all of your boost charge if you lift the throttle just a tiny bit under the boost activation threshold. I think boost should be like an energy amount, that you can be used depending how hard you press the gaspedal. For example If you press the pedal 100% you get 100% boost power for 1 second, if you keep the pedal at 50% you get 50% boost power for 2s. Like the energy amount would not change, just you could manage it better. This threshold/time way of using the boost is just wasting it.

[@RALLYTechnical]

@xfixdonz the regen is dependent on meeting that 60% threshold. That was shown multiple times in the video. I was on the brakes under 60% nothing happened. The second I go over the threshold of 60% it starts charging. So its not about how long you are on the brakes. Granted the brake pressure could require some testing as I was running the default pressure, but the likelihood is that 60% target will not change. So I will test that and get back to you.

[@ghul9601]

sadly but my pc right now cant handle 30 fps i hope the optimazation update will make everything right

[@RALLYTechnical]

What GPU do you have? Things to do at the moment are turn of all overlays Steam/discord/nvidia/xbox. Next is advanced graphics. Dynaminc objects, motion blur, crowd and mirrors are GPU hogs so you'll need to keep them as low as possible or off in the case of motion blur.

[@stavroswrc]

The outro though ;-(

[@SLN124]

i cant see where this isnt a bug when you deplay the boost for just lets say half a second then you go off throttle and all of the remaining boost is gone.

[@RALLYTechnical]

You come off the throttle while boosting, you forfeit what is left of the boost. You then have to charge it up all over again to use it again. That's how it works irl.
