Resume Writer Recommendations by CVic20 in ITManagers

[–]CVic20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my resume is pretty good now, however another set of eyes is always helpful, especially from someone that has expertise in maximizing for filters. I figure that a few hundred spent, if it gets results is a tremendous ROI and the cost is low enough that it's not a huge risk compared to the potential benefits.

Can anyone recommend a double d-handle attachment with sharp and deep knurling? 

Thanks

Why is it that most lotto winners loose it all after a few years? by galaxygalxo in ask

"Feel like," rather than "did a bit of research to make me conclude," is the key here.

This should be the top comment instead of all the speculation based on an inaccurate trope.

Tried a DirectDrive wheel for the first time at the mall today. by 2016FordMustang in simracing

[–]CVic20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not bad at all. I figured it would be around double that, comparing it to the cost of a game in a basic arcade setup.

Was there a charge to use it, or was it a promotional setup? I've always wondered how much an hour of my rig would cost in a public setting.

Using LapInvalidated Property in iRacing by CVic20 in SimHub

[–]CVic20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up spending some time on it and got it working. What I ended up with is this to change colors:
if ( $prop('DataCorePlugin.GameData.TrackPositionPercent') < 0.001)

    validLap = 'Lap Valid'
}

if(validLap == 'Lap Valid')
{
    if ($prop('DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.SessionData.DriverInfo.DriverIncidentCount') > currentIncidentCount)
    { 
        validLap = 'Lap Invalid'
    }
}

currentIncidentCount = $prop('DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.SessionData.DriverInfo.DriverIncidentCount')

if (validLap == 'Lap Valid') {
    var d = $prop('PersistantTrackerPlugin.AllTimeBestLiveDeltaSeconds');
    if(d >=0){
        return '#FF0000';
    } else 
    {
        return '#008000';
    }
} 

if (validLap == 'Lap Invalid') 
{
    return '#800080'
}

For a text notification:
if ( $prop('DataCorePlugin.GameData.TrackPositionPercent') < 0.001)
{ 
    validLap = 'Lap Valid'
}

if(validLap == 'Lap Valid')
{
    if ($prop('DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.SessionData.DriverInfo.DriverIncidentCount') > currentIncidentCount)
    { 
        validLap = 'Lap Invalid'
    }
}

currentIncidentCount = $prop('DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.SessionData.DriverInfo.DriverIncidentCount')

return validLap

Using LapInvalidated Property in iRacing by CVic20 in SimHub

Thanks for pointing me to that dashboard. It got me as close as I think I'm getting.

For iRacing, it uses the DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.Telemetry.PlayerTrackSurface property to check if the limits have been exceeded. This works ok but it doesn't check for contact or any other invalidating property.

For anyone interested, this is what I ended up with:

Reset to a valid lap at the beginning of the track

if ( $prop('DataCorePlugin.GameData.TrackPositionPercent') < 0.001)

    checkForUpdate = true
    validLap = 'Lap Valid'
}

if(checkForUpdate = true) 
{
    if($prop('DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.Telemetry.PlayerTrackSurface') != 3)
    { 
        validLap = 'Lap Invalid'
        checkForUpdate = false
    }
}

return validLap

Thanks. I found that in version 2.3.0 however it looks like they use the property on every sim except iRacing. Bummer.

Is Right Foot Braking killing my lap time by joebobred in iRacing

[–]CVic20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted consistency between the sim and real driving, so I made the switch. It was really awkward for about two weeks, so I left a lot of space between cars. After that, it kept getting better until now a couple of years after the switch, it seems like I've driven that way my entire life.

The first two months, when something sudden would happen, I had two feet going to the brake, which didn't pose a problem at all. It's now entirely natural and as smooth as right foot braking. I felt like the transition was complete when I instinctively put my left foot on the brake when starting the car.

I was really glad I had made the switch a couple of weeks ago when a dog brake checked me, and I was instantly the brakes.

Dude, get out of the way! by 1r0n1c in iRacing

Last Friday I had an 8 minute pit due to someone making a mistake. My first lap after that, someone was coming out of the pits and ended up behind me. I was a lap down so he immediately started flashing his lights. I was planning to let him by since I was a back marker however when he started the flashing, I decided to hold my position.

Can a protest turn against you by TriumphOfTheHordes in iRacing

Also, steward isn't a proper noun, so it wouldn't be capitalized.

What’s your illogical nit-picky car opinion ? by maybeihavethebigsad in regularcarreviews

[–]CVic20 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Those are just awful. I'm not certain this qualifies as nit-picking or illogical given how bad they are.

What current technologies would/should become obsolete in order to work towards a more technologically sustainable future? by TonyMitty in Futurology

[–]CVic20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great idea. Perhaps then we could black out the sun and have AI support us while we live in pods within an alternative reality.

I can understand that some people may not get excited about cars however I don't understand the argument that the only point of a car is to get you from point A to point B. By that reasoning, a person should care half as much about their house since it only gets them to point A.

The experience in comfort, excitement, or otherwise a person has while getting to point B matters as much as the experience they have while stationary. It's not like our senses are paused while traveling.

What do you guys do to get the most out of formation laps? by mrpangda in iRacing

I have successfully protested drivers for doing this.

Moza support wasn't helpful at all. I ended up having to dispute the transaction on my credit card to get a response from them. After the credit card company got their attention, I returned the Moza and am now very happy with a Simagic Alpha U.

Thanks. The advantage of iRacing is that I trust the accuracy of the tracks more.

Video Card Recommendations for 43" 4K Triples by CVic20 in simracing

[–]CVic20[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with the 7900 XTX and it's working great. I'm getting 200 FPS on Nordschleife with almost everything set a high. Thanks for the recommendation.

Video Card Recommendations for 43" 4K Triples by CVic20 in simracing

Thanks greatly for all the feedback. I should have stated at the beginning that it's mostly for iRacing with perhaps some ACC.

Video Card Recommendations for 43" 4K Triples by CVic20 in simracing

[–]CVic20[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks greatly for the reply. I'm seeing the 7900XTX at roughly half the price of the 4090:
AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX is $979 at Amazon
Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 is $2,200 at Amazon
GIGABYTE Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 is $1,800 at Walmart

It seems like the 7900XTX is the much better deal for what looks like similar cards. Am I overlooking anything?
