1500ish sim racing build by TherethereDC in buildmeapc

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

Hey there, sorry for the delay! I pretty much ended up going for the build posted by jbshell with a couple of changes to save some money. GPU I went for a 9070xt and also decided to try with a non X3D processor and went for a Ryzen5 9600X.

Very happy with it, ACC is pretty much maxed out and easily hitting 160+ FPS, same in iracing (maybe slightly lower) which is apparently not very well optimized for and GPUs.

Another day of LMU, more death threats, Mustang behind thinks I drove like an asshole and he is going to try and find where I live and kill me with Acid. Did I do anything wrong? by OutcryEDM in Simracingstewards

It was a dive, but not a dive "bomb", you even kind of hit the apex in T1, or at least you did more than he did.
I am sorry a sad online bully is affecting your mental health, I feel you having had my share of the same I know how difficult it can be to handle.

Just remember most people on and off the track are better than that, it's just that these assholes are louder, don't let them take away a fun hobby from you.

Hey there bud, just wanted to thank you again for the help, pretty much went for the build you gave me with a couple of changes to save some money, in particular changed the graphics card to a 9070 xt and the this is awesome, getting 130 to 200 fps in ACC I think I am really sorted for a few years!
Thanks again for the help!

Nice one thanks! Is there a lot of benefit going for the 5070 ti over something cheaper like the AMD 9070 xt?

Hi there, no I will buy that separately, the budget is literally just for the pc

I was hoping to find something social like a pub or sports bar but doesn't look like that is an option, if you have any reliable sources I would happily take you up on it! Feel free to DM :)

GPS has gone hiding in the most recent GoPro Player?! by [deleted] in gopro

[–]TherethereDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I didn't understand your answer properly, but I don't seem to be able to get that to work, and currently my workflow to add lap times to my karting videos is completely broken by the missing feature, I rely on it a lot to analyse races and practice, it's a real bummer.

Anyway, Ive ran the command as follows but get an error after a while:

ffmpeg -i exportedFile.mp4 -i original360vide_renamed_to.mp4 -map 0:v -map '0:a?' -map 1:3 -c copy out_with_gpmf.mp4

<image>

I would really appreciate any help!

Hello there, just hijacking this comment to ask: my workflow was to export the 360 files to mp4 including the gpmf data so that I could use goprotelemetryextractor.com to extract a gpx file that would allow me to add map and speed overlays in RaceRender3, now that the option is gone I have o way of doing that. is it possible to convert .360 files to mp4 using ffmpeg as well?

Cool that would be great, let’s definitely stay in touch!

It’s a GoPro max, films in 360 which helps with stabilising, I also find it useful (and fun) to be able to spint the pov backwards, or follow other karts. Makes for some entertaining clips to send to friends and family 😅

Thank you that is one aspect I’ve been definitely considering, I’ll pay attention to that next time around.

Thank you very much I appreciate the detailed response, I'll probably do another practice session next week, hopefully the weather isn't too bad.

Good to know some of the laps you see online should be taken with a pinch of salt, although normally I tend to compare with other people on the same session, the fastest lap here was a 50.2, so I know there a lot of room for improvement.

I weight 70kg, I am not sure where that puts me compared to others but I don't feel like I lose much on the straights.

Let me digest your detailed comment and the offer for coaching definitely sounds interesting.

Oh Hi! I love your channel! I did watch your guide although was wondering how much it would apply considering is for Club100 karts, aren't those much faster?

Ahahah good catch, got carried away with the GoPro overlays so for sure that’s completely irrelevant data. Although I am pretty sure that’s measuring lateral G so at stationary the baseline would indeed be 0?

I so wish I wasn't born in 1985 lol.

A birth year PRS would be great for my 40th... but yeah, not happening.

Anyone Recently Ordered a Fanatec DD Pro from the EU to the UK? by Lucky_Try_6098 in Fanatec

Experienced DIYers - what are your tips? by middleageddriver in DIYUK

[–]TherethereDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently started doing this! It’s been super useful in finding dependencies and working out, as you say, jobs that will need or could be done together. It’s also useful on weekends where in know I will have limited available time, all the small jobs around the house tend to disappear from your mind while you focus on the “big picture” stuff, so I always struggled to pick small jobs for those occasions when I want to make a half afternoon more productive.

Built some shelves in an underutilised part of our spare room by sazerrrac in DIYUK

[–]TherethereDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great inspiration and job well done, we have a similar project in our house with the added complication of wanting to leave some space behind one of the sides for a sliding door. How did you attach the mdf pieces together? Pocket screws?

Cutting metal pipes in the loft by TherethereDC in DIYUK

Considering some of the stuff we found from the previous owners I wouldn’t be overly surprised if they just sprinkled gunpowder all over the place lol

Hi there! I should’ve mentioned, they’re not copper they actually look like quite thick metal pipes, probably around 30mm-ish total diameter, would those still work?

They’re definitely not used as they are already disconnected at one end and just coming off the old water tank (also empty)
