managed to put everything together (still not sure why i've got a handful of screws leftover, but think it's all ok ). What are some of the better games to start with? pick up skills and all that...especially as i'm learning to handle this

Hi,

At the moment im having a simjack pedal setup (brake + throttle). I generally just play GT and formula cars in Iracing. So i dont really need a clutch. However, i would like to get in touch with drifting and other road cars. I still have some CSL pedals laying around.

Would it be possible to connect the pedals to the Simjack usb hub as a clutch? The connector is different tho, but i do have the right connectors laying around.

Or, is there an other way to connect one pedal to the PC?

Traded it for a 1g vape cart

Hello everyone. This picture lists the equipment I want to buy. I want to know if they are compatible

As far as I know CRP and R12 can work very well with NLR2.0

But I think there will be some problems with SGP and HBP

and finally I apologized for my immature English skills. I'm from Taiwan so I use google translate to ask my question

ah I forgot to mention, I bought TSW just to play with European trucks

I’ve been using the G29 wheel, pedals and shifter with my PS4 for about a year and had a lot of fun. A few months back my pedals started flickering a bunch and I tried to the normal problem shooting but they just kept going. This has meant I’ve just not raced for a while. Whisking of upgrading for my birthday coming up. What’s a solid not too expensive choice compatible with both the wheel and the console?

I'm interested in trying out vr, I'm not 100% sure I'll get along with it (I can get motion sickness and a previous brain injury causing me to be sensitive to pwm flicker).

What's the best mid range headset to try out, preferably from Amazon so I can return it easily.

I'm not against spending a bit of money, but I'd like to get the full experience if that makes sense but at the budget to mid range. Is it the rift S?

Also really important it has as little delay as possible, so from what reading I've done that rules out anything that doesn't connect with display port.

Running a 4080 so my pc shouldn't be an issue.

Any advice appreciated, cheers

Been looking for a good wheel for quite a bit now. These were the main 2 that caught my eye the most.

Id prefer the one which is quieter in use but I don’t know what that is as I can’t find any results showing the noise for the PXN 99. And would it be better to get the T248 and just upgrade to get the shifter later on?

Recently, about 4 months ago, I discovered the world of racing simulators. I started with ACC (Assetto Corsa Competizione), although I had already played many other arcade racing games before that. I played Forza, almost all of the Need for Speed games. And now I’ve discovered Assetto Corsa Competizione, which I spend a lot of time on.

(I'm in Spain) Right now, I’m considering buying a sim racing cockpit setup—a complete set, meaning a base, wheel, pedals, and the cockpit itself. Initially, I thought about getting Fanatec products. Specifically, they have a 'Ready to Race' bundle on their site, which includes the CSL DD base, the McLaren GT3 wheel, and their standard pedals without a load cell.

But then I thought, since I’ll be buying the whole setup on Black Friday, I might as well go for something more expensive and save in the process. In my country, there is an official representative for Moza , and for Simagic as well (Simufy). So I decided to go with the Moza R9 base, of course, the V2. The wheel will be the Simagic GT Neo with a magnetic adapter. And for the pedals, I’ll go with SRP, not CRP, but SRP, which come with a load cell right away. Because, if you compare with Fanatec and get a higher-level wheel and pedals, the price comes out to about the same.

Also as for cockpit, I'm going w/ Simxpro r80 and a bucket sit from junkyard.

I have a dumb idea id like to not spoil before its done but im not a graphic designer and the tutorials confuse the hell out of me so I need help please.

Basically if I have the livery file that was uploaded to trading paints, is that 1:1 of the real car? Is there an easy way I can make it 1:12 scale?

Any help would be really appreciated and I can give more information if this isnt enough to go off.

I recently started sim racing and am currently trying to figure out how to make a good setup. It is a lot and I am not very into this kind of stuff but I got a idea how it could be made easier for beginners like me.

I don't know if this is already a thing with apps/mods or maybe planned for future games but an ai mechanic would be really cool. If you had an ai that can help you analyze your driving and maybe give suggestions on changes you could do it would make it a lot easier.

I hope assetto corsa evo will implement this straight into the game, would be so cool to have this ai helping you setup your car before races. Would also feel more immersive since I guess that's how it's done in real life.

EDIT - SOLVED

Went into my hard drive. Copied the GTR2 folder and renamed it P&G.

Downloaded and installed the P&G patch. The install asked me a few questions saying that some problems had been found and did I want to keep going. Said yes every time.

Works - via folder start (GTR2.exe), NOT STEAM.

Sorted.

=======================================================

I bought GTR2 last night. after being so impressed with GPLaps videos.

Up and running on Win10 and I installed the 16th Anniversary Mod which is just brilliant.

If I wanted to install the Power and Glory mod, do I need to set up a different GTR2 game or can both mods be installed in the same game file?

Thanks

Purchased a used g29 on ebay. Having some trouble setting it up. Have watched several videos and used a few diff settings ive found to no avail.

Whats confusing me is the settings between the g29 interface and the 2 games i alternate between beam.ng and assetto.

My wheel either has too much resistance to turn smoothly or too much feedback and vibration.

Is there a way to test if the wheel is operating correctly?

Also if i was confused before seeing ppl are using "lud" had confused me further.

Any info or videos for beginners would help. Also a way to test wheel

ok a little background:

for my birthday about 6 months ago i got a 2nd hand G27 wheel and i drift in assetto with it but i really like the look of forza, carx street etc... but they all cost alot of money and i dont have too much.

i got JDM: Rise of the Scorpion but ive finished that game and then i got the forza horizon 4 demo on the microsoft store but deleted it after a week because doing the same thing over and over again because its doesnt save progress was annoying.

so to get to the point does anyone know and free (or very cheap) open world racing games that support a wheel and have decent graphics?

all comments help and ill try to reply to most of them

(P.S. sorry for bad grammmer)

I am space-limited and currently have my wheel connected to a desk and my pedals hard mounted onto a bit of wood which is then held in place by adjustable desk legs which does a perfect job of stopping the pedals from moving. The problem is that under heavy braking the chair moves backwards. To counter this I installed glides instead of wheels and this helped a lot but I still can't apply the level of pressure I desire as if I push myself back into the seat under heavy braking the chair still moves slightly and I have to then readjust mid race. I can use less brake pressure but this isn't ideal as I would like to upgrade to the VRS or HE pedals in the near future and these require even more brake pressure to get the most out of.

Now the logical thing would be to get a cockpit, money isn't an issue... however space is a BIG issue and my sim racing has to revolve around having my wheel hard mounted to my desk. Just about every rig in existence has the upright section to mount the wheel to... what I need is a rig that doesn't have the upright wheel mounts and is instead just a platform for a racing chair and pedals. This has been impossible to find for obvious reasons, it's a very niche requirement.

At this point you are probably saying 'just build yourself a rig', which is what I think the solution is... however I know absolutely nothing about DIY, literally nothing. I know that people use something called 80/20 to build their own rigs but that is the sum total of my knowledge. I've never used CAD or anything like that, I have no idea what bits I would need to buy, what fastenings are required to make it stable etc. Basically im clueless and have no idea how to go about designing or building this thing or how much it would cost or where I would source the parts.

So im asking here in the hope that someone could perhaps point me in the right direction on how I should go about creating this rig for just my pedals and a race chair.

Im also wondering if id be better off just buying a full blown rig and then just not installing the wheel mount section but that seems like it would be a needless waste of money...

Any help or advice is very much welcome.

Hey guys!

I've been meaning to buy a DDU for my setup to add to the immersion. I've been eyeing the GRID 10 inch Porsche display, but it never seems to be in stock.

As an alternative, I'm also considering one from Simubox which happens to look very similar. Just wondering if anyone who's owned this has any thoughts on it?

Cheers!

I'm currently looking to upgrade my racing wheel, and Simagic (especially the Alpha Mini) is a top contender. However, I noticed Thrustmaster just announced their new direct drive system using an "axial flux motor", which they claim will solve issues like oscillation, cogging, and overshooting found in traditional "radial flux motor" used in other DD wheels.

How much of a performance improvement do you think this will offer compared to other direct drive wheels? Specifically, how would it stack up against something like the Alpha Mini?

I wanted to play Gran Turismo 7 using a wheel so I purchased the Logitech G923. I, then, downloaded and played F1 2023…it got me hooked!

I am now building my first-ever and last racing & flight sim rig! Stay tuned for updates!

Does anyone have this setup? I’m running a Simagic GT Neo with a Logitech Pro base using the QR adapter.

Issue: The FFB is dampened and can barely feel it. Trueforce is almost non-existent. It is night and day between the base wheel and the GT Neo. Is anyone else “not” feeling this?

The GT Neo is stellar but this just ruins it for me. I’ve switched back to the round logi wheel and thinking on selling the Neo. Before I do.. looking for feedback.

I live in southeast asia and was planning on buying moza products for my upgrade. But with Corsair’s acquisition of Fanatec, can we expect Fanatec products to start shipping to countries where it was previously unavailable? And if so when can I expect to see the products in shelves?

since nobody has quite made a tutorial on this i made one, its in arabic and i was just replacing my big metal clamp with a smaller one but you will get the idea, recommended size is 3 inches but 4-6 will work fine but you will have to cut it to make it less thick so that it fits, hope this helps :D https://youtu.be/y0QqXeHMoHI?feature=shared

Just about to order my VRS bundle and noticed VRS has their QR back in stock. I've seen a lot of people mention Q1R though. The VRS QR set would cost me $200. A basic Q1R set from AliExpress/Amazon is only like $60. Obviously the VRS one is slick, but is it slick enough to warrant paying 3x more?!

$15 lumbar cushion. Memory foam. All sim seats should have this as an option. Also, I'm old and broken.
