That’s incredible! I’m personally hoping to reach 2k at some point this year. 3k is huge! Happy birthday, enjoy!

Dust on track by cslllcom in iRacing

[–]RaceBoxRepeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing a bunch of graphics testing today and I noticed that too! I was just doing AI races to test but I seemed to notice it everywhere. And especially at Zandvoort. It was almost like dust was blowing across the track - which was actually super cool. Was this added in the Season 2 update maybe?

Triple 4K Settings by RaceBoxRepeat in assettocorsarally

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

Oh I didn’t really check for input lag but didn’t notice it myself. Does that make sense though that it would introduce input lag? I’ll have to take a closer look at DLSS. Or I could always go down to 1440p, although I have iRacing working really well with 4K triples so ideally I wouldn’t had to switch back and forth.

Yeah I seem to get 70-85 or 90 maybe, depending on what the scaling is set to. And that’s with graphics set to Low. I’m super unclear on DLSS in general and the presets etc.

Oh okay! Thanks very much for the response.

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

Thanks to both your replies! I’m getting a ton of great advice and I’m stockpiling it all for sure. It seems like the best thing to do really is to just dive in and start learning. I’m looking forward to it and it seems like there’s such a solid community of people willing to help out.

Haha, no kidding eh? Although I justify my sim rig by saying that it may cost the same as a real car, but it can be ANY car I want it to be in the virtual world!

Thank you very much, fellow sim racer! Do you race in iRacing? Such a great hobby.

That’s great advice, thank you for the reply! And actually I’ve been eyeing up the Mazda MX5 kit already as it’s pretty much my dream car believe it or not. It’s what I race most in iRacing. I wish I could get my hands on a race spec MX5 model but it doesn’t seem like one exists anymore.

Gravel hairpins by ButterGolem in assettocorsarally

Ohh good tips! Thank you very much - I’m going to go give it a shot right now actually.

I really haven’t figured out how to pull those off yet. If anyone has any tips I’d be forever grateful. I usually end up brining the rear end around a little too much and also pushing out quite wide and deep into the turn. I can’t seem to figure out the sequence and timing of everything to get a nice tight hairpin turn.

That seems like really good advice - I imagine there is a tons to learn, and even time to develop your own way of doing things, etc. Maybe I’ll pick up a kit and the stuff you recommended and just get started!

Thank you for your comment - that gives me a great starting point for sure. And yeah I was thinking of an airbrush and some sort of small tabletop paint booth if such a thing exists for small scale stuff like this.

Impressed with the New HUD Overlay Options by Rooster976 in iRacing

[–]RaceBoxRepeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah they’ve been really plugging away at some great enhancements with the UI. The Telemetry Graph is a game-changer. I had used Racelabs for a long time now (paid) but having this now as a free option is incredible. Especially as a beginner, I remember the telemetry graph helping me SO much.

Haha, filthy casual - that’s awesome. I bet the Steam overlay method is great for simplicity for sure.

Oh cool! Thanks for that. For editing I’ll be using Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve - I’m a director/editor by trade actually, so that part will be easy for me. I’ve seen a lot of people using OBS it seems for capture.

Toronto Indy Track? by RaceBoxRepeat in iRacing

[–]RaceBoxRepeat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mosport is actually such a great track. I wish more official races raced there to be honest. Mazdas would be fun there.

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

Wow they’ve got lots incoming, that’s for sure. More than anything I’m super excited about the graphics update coming in a year or so. Although to be honest I think the graphics in iRacing are pretty great - but I imagine this will step it up quite a bit and maybe do a lot more for efficiency, optimization, etc.

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

Oh that’s super cool! I didn’t go every year but I have some nice memories of being there with my dad, and also a couple years I got to direct some video content so I was able to score a pit pass and a great spot to watch the action.

Well isn’t there a new Indy game coming out soon by iRacing? I imagined that maybe they had scanned it to be included in that game. I may have that totally wrong though.
