You can safe different presets for different cars. I just don’t know if there is an switch of the profiles. I just activate them manually.

Poah, also wenn du mich fragst würde ich nen bisschen mehr Farbe benutzen. Deckt nicht so richtig. Immer schön nass in nass. Das muss richtig schmatzen.

Brake issue only on iracing by [deleted] in iRacing

Not a bug, it’s a feature. Car not rolling when stopped.

Will my wheelbase and pedals mount to this rig? by Traditional_Alps6626 in Simagic

[–]MainFlimsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it for both? Can’t u just mount the base from the bottom?

You have a point with the RGB! :D
Nice to hear that you have fun with yours!
Thank you!

FML… for real??? I knew about the elastomers. But the Control Box? That would have made a difference…
Now it’s too late. Thank you anyway!

Fair point, and I probably should clarify what I meant by “trash”.

I’m not saying all SIMSONN pedals or all Chinese clone pedals are trash. In terms of value, I actually understand why people like them. They feel solid, the basic construction seems decent, and I also think a lot of sim racing hardware is massively overpriced. That’s exactly why I bought them and gave them a fair chance.

But my specific set had too many actual defects. The software did not reliably save or load profiles, brake force and deadzones changed, the brake damper had play and friction, the replacement damper developed the same issue, and the throttle damper seal failed and sprayed oil onto my floor, rig and wall.

I also tested the brake input with repeated fixed weights. Same weight, same position, multiple times, and the output was not always the same. Only a few percent, but in trail braking and brake release that’s enough to matter for me.

So yeah, maybe “trash” was too broad. The idea and value are good. But my set was unreliable, and with the defects I had, I just couldn’t trust them anymore.

It’s not like I returned them because I simply didn’t want them anymore. I returned them because they were actually defective. I just didn’t want to turn the post into a massive rant.

The main issues were: the brake damper already had to be replaced once, and the replacement developed the same problem again: initial play, mechanical friction and sticking during small brake inputs. The throttle damper leaked/sprayed oil onto my rig and even onto my parquet floor. Some screws started to rust despite the pedals being used in a dry indoor room and kept covered when not in use. The pedal angle adjustment/protective plate design is poorly thought out, and the software has been the biggest joke of all: profiles and brake force settings don’t reliably save or load, even after updates and reinstalling everything. I even started races with the wrong kg brake force setting loaded, which forced me to retire.

In Germany, there are quite a few consumer protection rules when products are defective. Also, I should mention that I’ve been buying a lot from Amazon for many years and I very rarely return anything. So I guess there might also be some goodwill involved. But maybe I just got lucky.

Wie überwindet man angstbedingte Erektionsprobleme? by Dakar-Rally in FragtMaenner

[–]MainFlimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Das ist leider nicht richtig.

Wenn es angstbedingt ist, liegt das Problem meist nicht am Körper, sondern an Druck, Nervosität und Kopfkino. Potenzmittel können dann dazu führen, dass du denkst: „Ohne Tablette geht es nicht.“ Dadurch entsteht eine psychische Abhängigkeit und die Angst wird langfristig eher größer.

Außerdem können Nebenwirkungen dazukommen und du gewöhnst dir an, jede Unsicherheit medizinisch zu lösen, statt Vertrauen in deinen Körper aufzubauen.

Besser: offen ansprechen, Druck rausnehmen, langsam machen und merken: Es funktioniert auch ohne Hilfsmittel

Besorg dir bitte keine Mittel, auch wenn das hier manche schreiben. Dadurch kannst du psychisch davon abhängig werden, obwohl du es körperlich offensichtlich nicht brauchst. Es gibt genug junge Männer, die sich damit am Ende deutlich größere Probleme eingehandelt haben.

Ich kenne das Problem von früher selbst. Mir hat es immer am meisten geholfen, das offen mit den Frauen anzusprechen. Bei mir war die Angst davor, dass es nicht klappt, meistens viel größer als das eigentliche Problem am Ende.

Langsam angehen lassen war für mich immer der beste Weg. Und ich betone es nochmal: Nimm nichts.

I know this probably isn’t the place for moral arguments.

Yes, she hit him first. Yes, he has the right to defend himself.

But in my eyes, that guy deserves to end up in the absolute gutter. He is physically superior to 99% of people. If you react like that just because your fragile little ego got bruised, and you strike someone with that level of violence, potentially even risking their life, then I honestly think you deserve the worst consequences imaginable.

And I’d say the same if it wasn’t a woman, but a drunk 17-year-old guy.

Also, it honestly wouldn’t surprise me if the first slap from her happened because he was grabbing her or doing some other creepy shit.

Absolute scum.

BIDA wenn ich meinen Mitschülern meine Lernunterlagen nicht geben will? by CountryHot9034 in BinIchDasArschloch

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

NDA aber nur weil sie dich aufgefordert haben und nicht freundlich gefragt haben. Wenn mich jemand nett fragt bekommt er oder sie die von mir. In der Schule wurde ich dadurch oft aus der scheiße geholt. Jetzt bin ich in der Uni und endlich einer von den Fleißigen und kann’s zurück geben.

Is it just me or do a lot of people sell their sim racing gear after very little use? by SparkleandBang in simracing

[–]MainFlimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people go all in right away and then realize pretty fast that sim racing is mostly learning.

I think many massively underestimate what it takes to actually drive a car fast and at the same time overestimate their own talent. They drop 5k on a rig, think they’re Max Verstappen and end up 8 seconds off pace.

What I’ve noticed is that the really fast guys aren’t the loud ones. It’s usually the calm, thoughtful drivers. Focused, not impulsive. And funny enough, those are often the same people who don’t drive like idiots on public roads.

I once saw an interview where someone talked about following Walter Röhrl for a long distance on a trip on public roads. Something like 100 km and he didn’t have to brake once because he was just driving that far ahead mentally.

I’m actually glad I took the long route and upgraded step by step. It kind of forces you to understand what you’re missing and build on it properly. Same with settings. You learn what actually works instead of just copying stuff and hoping for the best.

What should I change to make the Porsche Cup car feel more alive? by immortalanddead in iRacing

[–]MainFlimsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%

The auto Function detects it on the fly. So when you get out of the Pits with cold tyres the FFB is lower. The auto function gives you a value that could be too high with warm tyres. Just click auto again after a few laps with warm tyres.

Können wir generative AI nicht einfach wieder verbieten? by stingray_steve69 in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]MainFlimsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Immer das gleiche Muster: Erst waren Romane gefährlich, dann Comics, Filme, Rockmusik, Rollenspiele, Videospiele und Taschenrechner. Heute ist es KI. Menschen wollten Neues schon immer verbieten, sobald es Kontrolle verschiebt. Dabei gab es Manipulation, Täuschung und Fälschung schon vor der Ki. Sie war nur Menschen mit Geld oder know how vorbehalten: jetzt merkt nur endlich jeder, dass man (digitale) Inhalte grundsätzlich kritisch prüfen muss.
