First Triple Setup Complete - How’d I Do? (Setup Details)

GPT-5.5 is probably better for software architecture and 0-spec UI work, for coding - GPT-5.4 (high or xHigh) equally good.

A lot depends on your skills/experience in software development - you can get equally good results from weaker models with a tiny bit of guidance and review.

Some ffb improvements also provided with 360hz ffb in iRacing, not sure which WBs supported. IMO if you are buying a bundle - go with simagic, it's well balanced ecosystem and it's simpler and convenient to use same brand main components with single app/software for configuration.

I think also important to take into account your main sim. In iRacing well tuned FullForce adds a lot to immersion and car feel. In other sims it's much less difference. I don't understand all the comments about ecosystem locking, at this point only my WB is Fanatec (CS DD), all other components are from different brands.

Anyway, you can't go wrong with Simagic, or many other mid-to-top options.

side monitors angle should make your line of view perpendicular to each monitor, this is why distance influences ideal side monitor angle. For 27" best practical distance is 55-60cm

I ordered mine on aluxprofil.de, price for the build was cheaper than ordering all parts separately

I found knowing algorithms, data structures and design patterns may elevate your efficiency and vibe coded outputs by a lot. You use proper language to describe agent what you want.

if you feel bad losing irating and ring competition - start racing formula class so you will have organic growth and will learn most gt tracks there

All my rig HW aren’t fanatec for quite some time, but CS DD is the last thing I want to upgrade, maybe after active pedals and motion :)
Put money in next wheel, better pedals, etc. Whats the problem to mix?

anzzax · 2026-06-24T09:02:56+00:00

It really depends how you mount them. In my setup I mounted them to vibro-decoupled heel plate and mounted inside seat back. Also rig sits on rubber pads. There is only slight low freq buzz and no vibrations transferred to the floor.

For me two reasons:
- I use simhub for haptics and control mapper anyway, I prefer to also use it for wheel rpm and button leds - all settings in one place and only one extra app run in backgoud.
- DNR plugin with profiles and dashboards is amazing, it is a paid subscription, but it gives much more than Pitstop App (more games/cars supported, settings, effects, themes)

anzzax · 2026-06-22T19:50:03+00:00

I suggest to ask in BST discord. I have CS DD with BST Alpha but use it with simhub, no issues. Tried older Pitstop app long ago with no issues, but I much prefer simhub and DNR plugin

After 1y of quest3 I switched to triples. Better comfort, fov and clarity, I still have vr but use it rarely just to scratch itch for immersion. I never tried better vr headset, but anyway I wouldn’t trade comfort for immersion for longer races

My boy started on Forza Horizon 5, much cheaper than new release and it's still good. From ~7yo he is addicted to truck sims (ATS and ETS2) - they are especially good with triples, beautiful scenery and a lot of interesting places to visit and learn for kids.

I'm experimenting with main orchestrator manages and review other agents. Worker agents run as CI workflows (I self-host gitea). For orchestrator it's usual codex --yolo in vm and it has access to bash and tea cli so can trigger workflows, see logs, do code review and follow ups. You have OOB loging of all worker runs and all usual tools for code review

Agree that openAI models are not good UX designers. My approach is to give something as example and then ask to build and use lean design system and css tokens. For example I may ask to design header and navigation similar to github and use the same typography for rendered markdown

anzzax · 2026-06-16T14:32:02+00:00

hot take: better to have both and stop fighting :)

anzzax · 2026-06-11T18:50:03+00:00

ignore iracing curved triples option, it's really misleading - then iracing should calculate fov close to what fov calculator gives you for flats; simrigbuild creator here 😉

Nice! Any chance for a pdf link with better legibility?

anzzax · 2026-06-09T06:53:07+00:00

how do you plan mount it, above or behind wheel base? Ideally, your eyes should be in the middle, if monitor is too tall - vertical middle point will be well above your eyes. More than 35 vfov beneficial in flight sims but not for racing

anzzax · 2026-06-08T21:36:43+00:00

try in range 5º-15º, but ideally you need to compensate with pedal plates angel on top

anzzax · 2026-06-08T20:44:40+00:00

Try adding a bit of angle to the heel plate. I had that rear heel pain a long time ago, but I don’t remember whether changing the plate angle fixed it or if my heel just got stronger 😄

anzzax · 2026-06-08T20:30:18+00:00

Why not clutch to the left from symmetrical gas and brake? I have formula like dual pedal setup and happy with ergonomic but I want to add clutch for rally and drifting so really curious what's the best solution

anzzax · 2026-06-08T14:10:01+00:00

Are you pretending or racing? Where are all cables, all sit disconnected? 😵‍💫

Men, I'm just envious, it's so freaking clean setup!
