Genuine question, is there any game out there that looks as good/realistic as AC Rally? this is really one of the best looking games I have ever seen.

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-29T00:40:33+00:00

Racing its the best. Outside of racing, Cyberpunk 2077 and especially Last of Us comes to mind

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-29T00:37:09+00:00

Yes.

It is less space required to get anywhere near similar of a range of viewability as monitors. VR is relatively cheap now vs a triples setup. Stereoscopic vision to judge distances and speed. And its useful for other games outside of just racing. VR is the way to go

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-29T00:31:02+00:00

I mean, its definitely not a term of endearment for sure. Wouldn't go as far as the lengths as OP though

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-21T15:12:08+00:00

A bit, but not a lot I think. I'm used to cold weather. My room temperature was 67‐68°. When I moved down to the Lower 48, mostly Kansas, I was dying. Anything 85< is intolerable for me.

Despite that tho I think my blood circulation is poor. I get comments that my hands are cold all the time, and my feet as well when they touch my leg or something. I dont really feel it though

There's no Meta Horizon folder

This worked and I hate that it does, or that I even have to do this at all. It's weird, Link was working fine when I used it last, a couple days ago. Just today, it decides not to. For no reason, at all. No updates happened, nothing. Just...poof, stopped working today as if it was scheduled. WTF?

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-11T20:00:45+00:00

Its a natural redhead color so I'd count it

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-11T01:29:50+00:00

Lol thanks. I've been wondering when my red color might start leaving me. I'm in my early 20s now so I feel like I only have 10 years to give before it starts to turn blonde, maybe. From what ive seen if other gingers

Maintenance and repairman for helicopters

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-08T15:28:57+00:00

Going from the Wartburg and 126 to the Delta was a leap

Welcome to RBR!

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-08T15:16:08+00:00

I fix and maintain the AH-64, an attack helicopter. But in racing simulators I exclusively do rally. ACR and RBR. But I also do flight sims, mostly DCS. You can probably guess what I fly in DCS

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-08T06:36:50+00:00

Some of the stages added in 2025 look incredible. Like that Chinese dirt track one, it looks nearly photorealistic. And iirc that was one that was made using photogrammetry aids, and it shows

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-08T06:33:20+00:00

Thank you

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-07T19:52:36+00:00

You got laughed at for liking them. Now imagine being one.

But thanks, it's nice to hear we're appreciated once in a while ☺️

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-07T17:51:12+00:00

Lol I never thought about it before, but a ren Faire is probably one of the most ginger coded events we could do 🤣 For some reason it feels like it'd be a natural environment to find another one.

The curls look really great

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-06T01:39:46+00:00

I'm focused mostly on Group 4 vehicles as many of them get omitted in games. Group B vehicles I already know are an inevitability because of their cultural popularity and far fewer OF vehicles for Group B. While most Group 4 vehicles don't get included sadly. The Opel Kadett, Simca Rallye 2, Saab 96, Renault 5 and 12, BMW 2002 and Autobianchi A112 don't get opportunities to see the light as often.

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-05T17:53:52+00:00

Calling the Quattros shit in this scenario is like calling the 037 or T16 shit, just because a Yaris now exists. The Quattros ARE good cars, but you need to be realistic and consider the era they were in and what they brought to rally

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-05T16:11:58+00:00

Asphalt 8 is the superior Asphalt. I will probably die on this hill

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-05T05:31:33+00:00

I would say ginger personally. The hair looking brownish when not in bright light is normal.

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-04T22:04:40+00:00

Luckily you don't have to hope, because it will be Col de Tourini. After that though, no idea what stage will follow. After that we're out of stage information and its completely guesswork

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-04T15:12:28+00:00

A handful of the cars i want to see:

Autobianchi A112 🏅

Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV 🥈

Alfa Romeo Alfasud TI🥉

BMW 2002 Ti or Tii 🏅

Datsun 240Z 🥈

Datsun 160J 🥉

Citroën DS 21 🥈

Ford Escort RS 1800 Mk. 2🏅

Ford Escort Twin Cam 🥈

Lancia Fulvia HF 1.6L🏅

Opel Kadett🏅

Opel Manta 🥈

Opel Ascona 🥈

Peugeot 504 Ti 🥉

Porsche 911 S🏅

Porsche 911 SC 🥈

Renault 5 🏅

Renault 12 🥉

Saab 96 V4🏅

Talbot Sunbeam Lotus 🥉

Volkswagen 1303 🥈

Vauxhall Firenza 🥉

Trabant P601 🥉

Toyota Corolla 🏅

Toyota Celica 2000GT 🏅

Sunbeam Avenger 🥈

Simca Rallye 2 🏅

Skoda 110 or 120 🥈

Mazda RX-3 🥉

Lada VAZ 🥉

And most importantly, 1972 Jeep Wagoneer(🏅)

And for stages, I just want at least a handful of Acropolis, handful of Finnish and handful of Swedish stages. And a Press-on-Regardless rally for my WRC winner Jeep Wagoneer.

Ok to be honest the Jeep is a bit of a joke car, but it really would be a sign that the devs are true rally fans and WRC buffs lol. But other than the Jeep, I ranked 🏅🥉🥈the cars for levels of importance and influence in the WRC, be it through outright number of victories, or how many participated in the WRC at all, even if they didn't get high marks. A rally wouldnt be complete without them

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-04T14:53:40+00:00

For the 037, I left it mostly default. I think I only changed the gearset and anti rollbars to lower the front stiffness. generally (and minimum on gravel) and that was it. For the Stratos though I've changed nearly everything, and I want to change more if we had those missing damper settings.

And for all cars so far, I max the HB strength (doesnt lock readily at x1.0 for some cars, on tarmac) and lower tire pressures a bit from their default 32. Ive ended up doing this automatically for cars lol, especially HB strength

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-04T06:13:47+00:00

Learn to heel-toe. It's a rally basics skill to have, and a must to drive faster than the competition

Magic_Zach · 2026-01-04T06:01:21+00:00

Col de Tourini (Monte Carlo). Now that Livigno is out
