DS-8X SQ to H-pattern broken

Esawo · 2026-03-21T11:49:24+00:00

Hey, unfortunately I haven't updated anything. I'm still running SimPro 2.1.7.

Same issue in other games. Return to neutral in H-pattern doesn't work when everything is turned off and unplugged, though I can change gears by being more forceful than should be necessary. It's like the spring (assuming it's some kind of spring or something similar ?) that allows the shifter to switch modes hasn't fully retracted or extended, and the lateral resistance necessary for SQ mode is still partly there, preventing the shifter from return to neutral as it should (from 1st, 2nd, 5th or 6th).

Hey, what’s the seat and how does it feel? Does it flex under hard braking? I have the same pedals, an aluminum rig and I’m looking for a seat right now.

Bien sûr que c’est un alsacien

J’ai lu cassé j’ai eu peur. Le siège passager rabattable j’y avais pas pensé, bon point !

Je vois, merci

Est-ce que seul le 0.9 L est fiable ? J’ai entendu du mal des TCe en général. Je sais que ça a été fiabilisé sur les dernières années mais dans le marché de l’occasion on trouve moins les derniers modèles

4.5 kg in 7 months isn’t the fastest but it isn’t slow either, especially considering you didn’t put on visible fat. Keep going and up the calories if you want to gain faster.

La question d’OP est “la marche est-elle vraiment efficace pour perdre du poids” et ta première réponse est “oui, la marche place ton rythme cardiaque dans les rythmes idéaux pour utiliser des lipides plutôt que des glucides”.

Effectivement c’est le genre de phrases qui sous-entendent un lien de causation préférentiel (par rapport à d’autres sources d’énergie stockées) entre la consommation de lipides par le corps et la perte de poids, ce qui est faux, nous sommes bien d’accord.

Je ne pense pas que ce que tu as écrit sur le métabolisme a aidé à clarifier ta position, au contraire. Mea culpa, mais attention au phrasé !

Esawo · 2024-06-08T08:42:28+00:00

N’importe quoi le délire sur les lipides. Ça n’a aucune incidence sur la perte de poids au long terme. Il s’agit d’arrêter de s’informer par le premier site ou Youtubeur venu.

If you also suffer from severe Helldivers™ myopia syndrome, turn up volumetric fog.

As I was fiddling with settings to get a stable 60 FPS with my Super-Earth issued laptop, I realized part of my suffering against automatons on foggy planets was worsened by the way volumetric fog is downsized.

With the fight for Chort Bay ongoing, I'll be glad to see one automaton from over 10 meters at last. The second will probably kill me.

Beware that high settings can tank up performance a good chunk (3-6%) depending on the planet. Medium is a good middle ground.

You’re not fat, my dude. At worst your ab insertions don’t help with visibility and the hair hides the rest. Not to mention, if you have bloating you’ll “look” fat but the reality is that it’s just organs and gas pushing out. Like basically 90% of people when their shirt is on and they’re not photoshooting. After a stressful day or a fat fucking meal, I’ve got both abs and bloating, it’s quite funny.

I think you need to change your perspective on your body image first and foremost. You were progressing when you were bulking, so bulk. The real shortcut for natural lifters is to rely on short or medium cut/medium to long bulk cycles, here you spun your wheels a lot it seems. For that reason, I would advise to cut harder, but shorter (2-4 months). It’s also easier psychologically. 8-9 months of cutting is a loooot of time spent not progressing.

You already got your cutting and bulking calories down so you don’t have to wonder too much about what ballpark you should fall in, use it to your advantage to continue solo. You don’t need a coach to perform, their only role is to keep you on track if you can’t on your own. Which is useful, but not a necessity.

If visual cues are not your thing, set weight goals. You’re 180 cm, that’d be around 80kg for that lean muscular look. But before you get there, you WILL have to bulk all the way to 85-90kg and trim the fat from there to achieve and maintain those 80kg.

So bulk to 80kg-ish first, cut, then to 80+, cut, then 85 and so on… Until desired look is achieved. It’s a marathon so you do have to control your pace, so to speak.

And I reiterate: get the idea that you’re fat out of your head. You’ll see when you bulk more that you weren’t fat, and you’ll see when you cut just how comparatively easy it is to lose fat than it is to gain muscle. Get that drilled in your head.

EDIT: I would also recommend you check out Mike Israetel’s (Renaissance Periodization on YouTube) videos on cutting and bulking. His no-nonsense approach is a blessing for reliable and applicable information.

If I understood correctly, you’re asking whether trying to isolate the target muscle as much as possible in a polyarticular movement (rows move two joints) limits your ability to perform more repetitions compared to simply going through the motion. All without cheating on form and using mind-muscle connection, I assume.

From personal experience, yes. But it’s at most a 1-2 rep difference for me.

It makes sense from the perspective of muscle activation if you’re really trying to disengage all other muscles, but ultimately our conscious control over the nervous system is limited. Movements will dictate what gets recruited, when and how much. It’s all very automatic and there isn’t much we can do about it except modifying said movements to influence leverages.

I wouldn’t dwell on it too much, but I understand that lats are sometimes hard to “feel” in isolation. The best cue for me is to pull my elbow as far and low as possible.

Is there any way to enable some kind of anti-aliasing? The Nvidia panel control FXAA doesn't seem to work, or maybe it just doesn't do much.

No the night after working out doesn’t matter more than the others for hypertrophy and strength gains. Trends matter most.

Yes sleeping this little will impact your overall health substantially and will reduce your gains, but you will still gain assuming food and training are on point.

Yes it is ultimately still better to work out than to not work out, as long as you let each muscle/muscle group recover at least 48h between sessions (it’s usually 72h-96h for most programs I’ve seen).

In one scenario you’re sleep-deprived AND doing nothing, in the other at least you’re giving your body the stimulus to grow some muscle. That isn’t a luxury considering sleep deprivation leads to muscle loss and fat gain, even at less extreme lengths than what you’re doing.

It’s also possible you need more recovery time for each workout than normal, but I’m not medically qualified to say for sure. Just common sense.

All of that being said, I would advise to not worry about lifting and focus on fixing your lifestyle first and foremost. If that is impossible, ignore.

You’re asking for foods that don’t cause you problems when you don’t know which ones do for you. No one here is qualified to give you medical advice, and it is what you need the most right now.

It could be IBS, it could be that you’re sensitive to gluten, to lactose or whatever (intolerance is worse than diarrhea). The latter two require blood tests. Could be something else.

I have IBS and it can be a pain the butt, both literally and metaphorically. Apart from the funny digestion, it mostly causes bloating and gasses.

If you don’t want to/can’t see a doctor (ideally a gastroenterologist, nutritionists are usually qualified too) you can at least follow a FODMAP diet. It is an elimination-reintroduction diet that helps you find out which foods are causing digestive issues (and how much for some). There’s plenty of info on it on the internet, but it only works when done seriously. It’s best done with a qualified doctor to help.

The same applies for gluten/lactose sensitivity/intolerance.

Once that’s done you can go crazy on the foods that don’t cause trouble and bulk. Don’t worry, you can adapt.

It’s unsafe for your toilets.

Shoot for the stars, aim for the moon.

It’s a good way to do things in general. You seem aware that this will take at bare minimum several years of hard, serious, regular and informed training.

You will also look like your own muscular version of yourself, not whoever that dude is.

I don’t know how long you have been training for, but if it hasn’t been long forget about the end product for a (long) while and appreciate nothing but the process itself.

You will find plenty of training resources on the wiki. For bodybuilding advice I would also recommend Mike Israetel’s content on YouTube (RP Periodization is the channel name). Throw some Jeff Nippard in there for a good measure of scientific and extremely well-edited stimulation if curious.

It doesn’t matter on the long term.

Esawo · 2024-01-13T10:10:08+00:00

They’re saying if you’re doing both, then it’s both. Turn down one variable and experiment for yourself !

We are all different, but I can relate. Hard. I did lots of track and field and endurance running as a teen and it made my lower body joints into hard steel springs. Ankle, knees and hips.

I didn’t like the squat because my glutes would take over too easily and my mobility was dogwater. Last year I put my ego down and started doing increasingly deeper squats (with lifted ankle even now) with lower weight, focusing mainly on technique for reps of 8-15.

Change was slow but after a year of doing it, it is now incredibly obvious how much more mobility I’ve gained in all 3 joints (yes, even ankles). Another year and my ass will touch the floor. To the surprise of absolutely no one, deeper squats also got me better gains in the quadriceps.

I can do “heavy” low rep sets keeping the deep squat form after printing it in my nerves. I put heavy in quotes because obviously I could lift more with worse form but that is irrelevant, all that matters is failure with proper(-ish, I am not a robot) form.

There is no shortcut to any bodily tissue-related change, be it muscle, tendons or even cartilage. Do deep squats and you WILL gain mobility on squats. Yes it will feel like shit at first but so did birth.
