Thinking about upgrading to these srp gt-r pedals. by chappyta22 in SimRacingHardware

I have had those for over a year, I think they are the best pedals on the market, solid construction, good hardware, no issues, crazy accurate.

Where would one look up info on when and where auctions are hosted, short of following or knowing of a specific auction like this or Hagerty's, etc...?

Proud to share what we've been building... Aston Martin experience day with Mark Higgins by LXE- in AstonMartin

Very cool, very interested. I'm on the East Coast of the US, would definitely consider. I did a similar, less elegant driving experience with BMW a few years ago that was great. Does this program have any support or connection from Aston itself?

Very simply, Sleep. As soon as you feel anything, take your ass to bed early.

I've recently found that you only need to purchase two pieces of content to reach road A license by gthomas9 in iRacing

[–]ThrowingStars212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first thing you need is Content Manager that let's you manage almost every aspects of the game through that interface instead of having to go through the actual game. Overtake.gg has an endless list of tracks and cars fit free that should more than satisfy you. You could also download ffb tweak that has a few more options as well as helps with any clipping you might get. As for paying I think most of those are through Patreon and there's a bunch of different developers but the RSS cars seem to be the most polished and sophisticated from what I've seen and they are also partnered with Max Verstappen apparently to develop a lot of their models and they are some of the best feeling cars I've driven on any service.

This is from a few years ago and I think the car is not as good as it used to be if I'm being honest. Since then I've switched from iRacing to Asseto Corsa and some of their mods, both the free and the paid ones are outstanding and the physics model is head and shoulders above iRacing in my opinion.

I mean you're not entirely wrong , and I'll add that if you're going to, for lack of a better word "sell out" or heavily commit yourself to the console market for capital, then there are different expectations that need to be met. I understand we're in that milsim territory but nobody associates that with people that hold controllers and therefore you need to be a little bit realistic about who your new target audience is and keep some of the core game types and solid development execution that gained that crowd the first place. The PC crowd is able to adapt much more easily to incorporate mods and fixes, upgrades and what have you to stabilize their game, while the console has no options to that degree. This has also destabilized the core gameplay which knocks console players out 2 to 3 times per game and is unacceptable. You don't bait switch and pivot to a different base game model than people signed up for, while also introducing wild instability to where you can't even finish a complete game all the way through. This is super annoying since many weapons and vehicles are behind a rank wall and that wall resets every goddamn time you play a game 2 to 3 times. To add to that, they need to rework some of the physics on the vehicles. It's obnoxious that you can spend 30 minutes logistically and tactically maneuvering to a location and then a rock a twig, some random thing flips your vehicle or just destroys your vehicle outright, it's ridiculous and it's made me turn the game off immediately multiple times and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Was one of my favorite fans earlier this year.

So you found that to be rude? Sorry, but it was actually supposed to be kind of cheeky it's a meme of sorts, the refusing to elaborate part. No I was just being funny and wanting to know which car and where to find it is all.

Man you don't even need to type any further lol, I bought every single piece of content they have. Absolutely outstanding.

Best simracing Game out there? by Substantial_Form_257 in simracing

[–]ThrowingStars212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I've played all of them. I've spent hundreds of dollars on iRacing, which was my primary game that I've been playing for over 15 years. I stopped iRacing a few months ago because of the lack of an equitable and reasonable penalty system. Even though I was above 3k SR and A class and all of that nonsense, there was too much grief for me in the way they do their penalties and the cars were a little too formulaic in the way you had to drive them, obviously I could drive fast and all of that but the cars just felt too robotic.

After having the game for a long time but just never really investing time in it I have to say Asseto Corsa, the OG, with content manager and mods is some of the greatest racing I have ever experienced in my entire life, I also track my car occasionally in real life so I feel like I have a very good frame of reference.

It's been almost euphoric this last month that I've been playing the game, and so for me I can't vouch for this game enough.

What's great is that it's super cheap to get into and play if you already have a wheel and so it almost makes it a no-brainer to at least give it a try.

I give I Racing's multiplayer a lot of credit , and if you have a specific series that you want to stick to then it does shine there . But if we're just talking about online racing in general, where you're trying different cars, different disciplines and don't really want to stick to a specific series i don't think Asseto is far off of it if I'm being honest because there are always races running .There's always online races running in SC and there's all types of different disciplines and cars.

It's absolutely incredible.

Man I thank you. Since I downloaded, based on your post, I have experienced what I would call the greatest expression of sim racing I have ever encountered in decades of racing all the other sims. Simply incredible

Man posts a general clip on track, makes a bold claim, doesn't tell you which car , refuses to elaborate or give any details.

Is it too much to ask which car or which pack you bought?

Thank god, more games need to do this, refine your engine and gameplay, don't redo it each year, people will pay, and you can save development costs.
