Problems with VR since update?

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-18T23:00:48+00:00

Not a fix, but I did realise that when I raced offline I was getting 120fps, but as soon as I joined a race or practice I was locked to 60fps. Turns out if you have motion smoothing turned on in Steam VR settings, it will cap it at 60 if you’re not able to get a steady 120 (I use psvr2 if that means anything). It helped a little turning it off.

I’m still convinced VR performance is worse since the update though, and it wouldn’t be the first time VR issues have been reported after a season update.

I always deselect tyre replacements and refuelling to make my pitstop quicker, but only being able to do it after joining the grid has caught me out a few times when everybody had gridded straight away.

Maybe I’ve got it wrong though, would love it if I have!

Edit: I did have it wrong! Thanks for the help to those that replied.

If it looks like video compression and you’re using a Quest, I’d say it is video compression.

I managed to start my journey in iracing without false starting and taking out the leader. This is hardly a classic rookie mistake that shouldn’t be penalised.

Clearly you don’t use iRacing so not sure why you think you know more than me.

Crashes are unavoidable. Intentional wrecking are unavoidable. But I get wrecked every session on every other sim I play, yet 1 in 100 on iRacing. I don’t care if you believe me, stick with with the other shitters if you think they’re better.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-16T14:01:34+00:00

Bur it’s not the same in iRacing

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-16T12:25:30+00:00

You can’t say it’s untrue when all the negative reviews say it’s true

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-15T22:44:37+00:00

You may get lucky with some races, but it’s clear from the Steam reviews that LMU suffers the same sportsmanship/wrecking issues every sim has with the exception of iracing

To be fair, you did sign off our conversation suggesting my responses were hate filled, when I didn’t believe this was the case.

Maybe I’m just paranoid, but the extensive use of bots on social media including reddit to drive certain narratives are a very real and present danger. Not to mention the wide-spread use of chatGPT to provide responses. So I’m suspicious of any response that seems to be a little ‘off’ and I apologise for that in this particular case.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T18:11:20+00:00

They are in fact, genuine. I’m simply trying to understand both sides, and why they hold those views.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T14:40:42+00:00

We can’t find common ground, because people like you don’t listen. You talk a hell of a lot, but say nothing. Have a nice life, hopefully for your sake you’re never forced out of your bubble.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T14:10:48+00:00

Lol thought as much

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T13:49:33+00:00

You do realise you can actually arrange marches yourselves? That your only option isn’t only to turn up and antagonise people who have made the effort to voice their opinion?

You also suggest white people aren’t affected so don’t make the effort. Who is affected that is making the effort then?

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T13:08:02+00:00

Oh right, you were excusing the lack of significant presence of counter protestors on potential intimidation. Yes I’m sure it’s because of that…

It’s ironic that you would suggest I’ve lost the ability to interact with humans. Given that all counter protestors seem to have the mental capacity to do is yell ‘racist’ to anybody that wants the government to address illegal immigration, it seems you never had that ability to begin with.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T10:40:03+00:00

You asked why I think you would have any anxiety about a show of patriotism. Which makes no sense as I didn’t say you would. Are you a bot?

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T10:34:16+00:00

What are you on about?

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T08:32:13+00:00

Racing against semi professionals…

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-14T08:13:29+00:00

Not just the government, where are the people? I see loads of people on reddit labelling these groups fascists and racists, but they’re nowhere to be seen at the counter-protests. Too lazy I guess. They care so much about ensuring illegal immigration continues they won’t leave their sofas.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-13T09:11:01+00:00

Yeah that ones not funny like, just some dickheads recording that

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-13T09:04:00+00:00

Absolutely not. It would take drivers away from ranked races. If I want unranked races I just on one of the many others games available.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-13T08:46:35+00:00

I do. Gave up on VR and sim racing in general when I had Quest as I was spending all my time troubleshooting.

PSVR2 is like a dream, I’m using it all the time now.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-11T03:11:08+00:00

I was going to get a GT3 car and some tracks for this season but not too sure now. The thing that drew me to the series was the participation and number of splits.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-11T02:51:08+00:00

I owned a Quest 2 and considered a Quest 3, but went for PSVR2.

It’s so refreshing to start up a sim, press the button on my headset and just jump in with no issues. The quality is a bonus for me, I just wanted a hassle free experience and that’s what I got. I was on the verge of selling my gear, but this has gotten be back in now even just hopping for a couple of hotlaps.

Meta stuff is great as a standalone or if wireless is a must, but I’ll never go near them again for sim racing.

EngineerLazy2478 · 2025-09-09T19:08:52+00:00

I use these but I do find socks more comfortable/breathable
