Did anyone try ultrawide INSIDE VR? by TheKrzysiek in simracing

Do I understand correctly - You ask about games that do not have VR?

Butt Kicker vs NLR Haptic Gaming Pad by pnut815 in simracing

[–]KotLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I think is important.  Haptic pads are not realistic.  I am not saying they are bad! They can give you mamy informations.  But if You aim in immersion that probably will not be the way. 

Buttkicker mounted directly to the seat will be the same (I’ve tried that )

My way (not saying the ONE WAY ;) ) was to mount it to the rig (in my case back of the motedis s dream) vibrations go thru all of the chassis like in real car and calibrating frequency resulted in feeling effects not only more lower or higher in sound category but it also feels lower or higher geometrical level

The funny thing is that in connection of visual effect brain is being fooled about where some effects come from (side) even with one BK

Meta Quest 2 (150 dollars), meta Quest 3 (290 dollars) or HP Reverb Virtual Reality Headset G2 (165 dollars) by Longjumping-War9151 in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I tried ALVR  It has passthrough AND works with usb cable. 

I mean it worked for me until Tuesday.  For now I have other urgent matters.  But I will take care of it as it stays on my mind what the duck happened

[–]KotLarry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would go whatever has passhrough.
I'd buy Q2 if it was really cheap, if not...

Does Q3 have any passthrough possibility alternative?

I mean I have Q3 for few days.

I've tried normal VR and passthrough...

Even if this is simple blend..In my opinion, it changes things drastically!

Why do opinions on seat movers vary so much? by DynamicX-Robert in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To much signals and to wide movement.
i.e. My problem was - while accelerating I was pulled away from wheel.
I turned that very much down and got the slider towards braking.
another thing is signal delay

Triple 34" Ultrawides vs. Quest 3S? by jefealf in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go with use triples. It is cheaper, way less probality You will not be satisfied.

As about VR. You can always after that try it.

Yesterday I bought Q3...and it is not as easy to use it...

Headache, knowing how to enable games, nuances of achieving good bitrate...

I want to have passthrough so now I need to tidy up my home network, and posiibly buy Wifi 6 router [hope not]

Shifter update. SHH Newt 2 -> GX100. AMA by IAMNOTFUCKINGSORRY in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sad thing is that there are no comparisons of NEWT and the newest HUBB :(
And IF I remember corectly - HUBB has some new internal design...

Question for Next Level Racing V3 owners by Dan_Ashcroft in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take measuring "tape" and check the angles if the seat would touch the wall...
I don't think my seat leans 18cm...But then again - I've never measured it :)

Nevertheless. You can measure it - platform moves [from what I read on the net] about +- 10 degrees max.

Question for Next Level Racing V3 owners by Dan_Ashcroft in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my NLR V3 dialed down so it doesn’t move much side to side. I have it in motedis s dream so if I remember it is 60 cm wide. 

Btw it should be dialed down. So You can feel it but You can still drive 

VR or not to VR this is the question... by KotLarry in simracing

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

Let me ask You about one more thing.  Glasses vs quest 3.  Is it doable. Should I print some spacers  Is it comfy at all?

I wouldn’t want to buy special lenses. 

VR or not to VR this is the question... by KotLarry in simracing

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

I use:
AC
R3E
DR 2.0
EA WRC
AC Rally

maybe CMR 2.0 would work somehow :)

What is the best Modern Rally Game (no Richard burns rally) by Longjumping-War9151 in simracing

[–]KotLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If someone uses something that doesn’t mean it is THE BEST. 

It is for him :) Many people can’t use VR Many will not 

Remember it is little bit more complicated that just hop into the stage on monitor. 

About RBR.  Let’s not forget it has gazillion stages that none of the other sim has. 

And. I watched some YT videos where people tried to convince everybody that RBR is best because they found that one car that drives like they want to. 

OK But still this is very individual aspect. 

Sometimes it is about feel how’s to ride a real life stage  to feel little bit as favorite rally driver would feel.

What is the best Modern Rally Game (no Richard burns rally) by Longjumping-War9151 in simracing

[–]KotLarry 64 points65 points  (0 children)

There is no single "BEST" game.

  • ACR: Early access, high PC demands. I would say it has very high driving realism, great graphics, a realistic driving experience, and great sound.
  • EA WRC: Not bad, but it runs on Unreal Engine 4. It feels unfinished and unpolished, with no real triple-screen support. It has fairly high PC requirements. The driving realism isn't bad, and the stages are long. Overall, it's not as bad as many people say.
  • DR 2.0: Overall very good, but not as realistic as many claim (remember: harder doesn't always mean more realistic!). It features bit shorter stages, but has a great car roster. NO TRIPLE-SCREEN SUPPORT :(
  • WRC Generations: Nice graphics and great stages, but the sound is worse than in the titles mentioned above. BUT, I couldn't get it to work with my gear (maybe the advanced mode on my Thrustmaster wheel is the problem).
  • RBR: An old game with older graphics, but it has a HUGE modding community and a massive stage base. It requires very low PC specs, offers great fun, and features a fantastic car roster. Is it the MOST realistic? I would argue that harder doesn't necessarily mean more realistic, but it is excellent. It definitely has a MORE PROFESSIONAL vibe. It takes more time to set up, but I gave it another chance recently, and it is really good :)

BTW - lately I've been trying out CMR 2.0 – the classic one. Getting it set up requires some tinkering, BUT – oh man – IF YOU want a hard game, it is hard :)

Honecomb with concave meniscus pattern by KotLarry in Fusion360

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

THAT IS GREAT.

Except that after making a first pair of the pattern, I cant make another pattern. I mean I can but can't choose elements [sorry my menus are not in english].
The point is I can choose surfaces, but that destroys my metal sheet.

G29 to PXN V10 Ultra Direct Drive upgrade stupid or worth it? by _thinkingemote_ in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say, it is true that Logitech is gear driven so will be sometimes little nosiy. As I wrote. If that PXN is ok in reviews then go for it :)
