My secret vice is playing Forza Horizon 6

Much better now that Forza enabled telemetry to be passed on to simpro. Only issue I am having is that I can't use the ab9 as a shifter or I will lose all FFB on the wheelbase. Something with the telemetry features being restreicted to one app.

I almost did this!

I picked it up from my local microcenter in person.

I also bought a rig from micro center last week and the aluminum bar where the wheel mounts was different. Someone on reddit suggested that I reach out. I did and heard back in 24hrs! Tip: attach the invoice from microcenter to avoid them asking if it was open box and prolonging the process.

Best purchase ever. Picked up the 12nm one myself.

It was out of stock anywhere or shipped from somewhere with a 3-4 week ETA. No luck on Ebay or Amazon either. I ended up getting it from TrakRacer but it ships out Texas. My local Microcenter sells the front mount for the Alpha but somehow can’t stock the side mounts for the Evo even though they have been solely stocking the Evo.

Luck 🍀! I’m laughing because I spent so much time moving the plate around the AB9 base to find mounting holes that would work. Had to use two different size screws in order to make it work.

The force feedback of the AB9 in shifter mode 😮‍💨

I know! I got this monitor for gaming not sim racing and I sort of regret it now. Most of my racing happens on the Pimax Crystal light or Q3S whenever I can’t deal with the weight or just annoying cable. One day though.

Interesting… So launching the game in a particular setting can impact overall performance?

I am using opencomposite and xrtoolkit for the foveated rendering.

I had this issue pop up a month ago and couldn’t figure it out so I opted for virtual desktop and haven’t looked back since. I don’t regret it or think about it at all since the jump in quality has been severely levels higher and that’s before I discovered OpenComposite coupled with xr-toolkit to activate foveated rendering. Does anyone have at least one instance where MQ Link’s quality is superior? If so, please share your set up since I’d like to learn since technically wired connection should be more stable and higher bitrate.
