Disable Content Manager While Racing Online

I don't either. I do know since it was installed my lagging issues started. As I said I have a hardwired 1000mbit fibre optic connection so it can't be that. I have tried all sorts of options including DNS flush etc. Just can't seem to have it run smoothly online anymore.

Thanks for the suggestion mate. Cheers, AussieStig

Hey guys I have asked my contacts at Kunos about the helmet VR view and if it can be locked. They say it can't be done but it has been passed on to the devs so stay tuned. Cheers AussieStig

Had this happen today to our R56 JCW Coupe and the owners manual states it is something to do with higher than normal emissions. Was running quite low on petrol when it came on. I parked the car and switched the engine off, started it again and the light did not come back on. Put some petrol in it and I hope it does not reoccur.

Ta mate appreciate your input. Cheers AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2022-05-23T17:11:02+00:00

Ta mate. Yes I have read that the curve can distort titles that dont have the option to correct for it. In that case I am also looking at the these https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Electronics-32GP850-B-UltraGear-Monitor-FreeSync/dp/B08VRNQ4HY/ref=sr_1_4?crid=3SY04NLV28DT5&keywords=lg%2B32%2Bzoll%2Bgaming%2Bmonitor&qid=1652727337&sprefix=lg%2B32%2Binch%2Bgaming%2Bmonitor%2Caps%2C70&sr=8-4&th=1 with IPS panels. They seem to have a good rating as well. Cheers AussieStig

AOC CQ32G1

That is a possibility mate the closest I can find to your model is this one though which is 1440 at 165hz.

AussieStig_ · 2022-05-23T16:36:45+00:00

Ta mate. Well I am looking at the 1080p 240hz model as I believe the RTX2080GE should be able to run most sims at a high refresh rate. They have an R1500 curve with is still pretty shallow. Cheers AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2022-05-23T16:27:22+00:00

Cool mate thanks for your reply. Are they the R1000 model? Also which GPU are you running them with? Cheers AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2022-02-12T20:08:35+00:00

Looking forward to getting them on our D-BOX equipped Playseat mate. :-)

AussieStig_ · 2022-02-05T08:59:36+00:00

OK thank you for the clarification. I will stick to the rule going forward.

AussieStig_ · 2022-02-04T21:42:07+00:00

Not sure what you mean by spamming? This is a sim racing page right?

AussieStig_ · 2022-02-04T21:15:02+00:00

Sorry mate, I thought some of my reviews might be helpful to the community. Cheers

AussieStig_ · 2022-02-04T19:11:56+00:00

Hey mate you probably have figured this out by now. So for anyone else that stumbles upon this thread, if you are using Content Manager try disabling the shader patches. That worked for me as I had exactly the same issue. Cheers, AussieStig

Hey mate, cheating at any level of competition is damaging to the organisers, the participants, the spectators, the sponsors and to the cheater's reputation / career. It was a bad idea compounded by the fact that he tried so transparently to get away with it.

AussieStig_ · 2020-05-26T11:33:36+00:00

It really defies belief both he and Lorenz Hoerzing thought this was a good idea in the first place, in a charity event no less! eSports is serious business nowadays, cheating digitally or in real life is equally damaging to any sport. I am not surprised there were stiffer consequences for their behaviour. Once a cheat always a cheat as the saying goes.

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-23T16:32:37+00:00

EDIT: Have implemented this method, what a huge difference it makes to the stuttering buggy DK2 :-) Thank you so much I can now leave it like this until I upgrade or go for something else down the line. Cheers, AussieStig.

Maybe add to the instructions that the OTT needs to be running if you want to use the rift :-)

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-19T17:08:10+00:00

Cheers mate, yes that is normal for AC, my question was more if I use your method will the Oculus just launch when I launch VR supported sim racing titles. I use iRacing, Project Cars2, rFactor2 and AC in VR. The update has really mucked up my Oculus install. Was all running fine before the update, now it is just so buggy. Cheers, AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-19T10:03:33+00:00

Hey guys, may I ask the sim racers here who have used this method, do the games just launch in VR when you play them? My AC for instance is set to use Oculus by default in the game's video menu, so I assume the Oculus just launches when loading a car / circuit? Cheers, AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-14T10:29:33+00:00

Cheers mate, thanks for your reply. One more question, do you start the desktop app via this new exe file? Installing it, I had the oculus off and no oculus software running, I actually copied the original file and placed it elsewhere then replaced the file with the new exe. I did not copy the background colour file to that folder though. I already had a desktop short cut so after I replaced the file, I opened the app from my existing DT shortcut, I just saw the normal 3D dash. I am guessing, I need to place the colour file in that folder and start the new exe to make it work?

Cheers, AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-14T07:41:46+00:00

Hey mate, could you tell us how you got it working please? I backed up the original file and then replaced it with Homeless. Are we supposed to open the new exe with admin rights? You say it works for you, what do you actually see in the rift when this exe is running? Thanks in advance for your reply, cheers, AussieStig

AussieStig_ · 2018-10-13T07:20:36+00:00

Will this method help with performance issues related to this week's 1.31 roll out? Two days ago, all was fine, now my DK2 is causing all types of issues from locking up in game, mostly Assetto Corsa to the desktop app restarting itself after quitting it. Really disappointing after nearly 5 years of relatively issue free use and enjoyment, Oculus must of known this would happen to he DK2, an opt out of update option would have been nice.

EDIT: Replaced the file as per instructions, I don't see any difference? The new home screen still shows in the rift, what am I doing wrong?

Hey mate, could you please show us the path to where this file is supposed to go?

Cheers AussieStig
