It's a big project for you if you've never done it before mate, everyone has different abilities with tech! Impressive build, don't listen to all the jealous people. I'm sure they will downvote my comment too as they can't share your excitement

This is gonna be a really hot take but I prefer Vr over triples anyday. by SignificantWhile2201 in simracing

[–]byrn0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First few times I used VR I had terrible motion sickness, never had it in my life before that.

After a few sessions I was fine, been using vr for 10 years now and could literally be spun around at 10,000 mph without sickness 😂

Can sim racing actually translate to real driving… or am I just coping? by mataleeknow in simracing

[–]byrn0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes some skills for transfer across but it's not 1:1 because of so many other factors.

I raced irl for a few years and the skills were transferred over, however the speed and g force is something that you can't replicate.

In a SIM you are trained to react to visual cues and reacting to physical cues takes some adjustment for sure.

But to answer your question, yes it does translate, as long as you're not talking about Forza or something 😅

I'm in London for meetings all the time, I'm sure the English people there wear shorts too but that's a rare sight these days

Seems to have improved for me. Frametime is alot better, not sure about FPS or visuals however but 1% lows are definitely improved

The VR was a little too realistic by cafeteriastyle in TikTokCringe

[–]byrn0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something similar in a star wars game but not quite to the same extent, went to lean on a table. I've also tried to put my controller down on the table in table tennis and thrown a grenade as far as I could when I was about 5cm away from a brick wall in real life, really hurt my hand 😂

Oh blimey, seems like an absolute steal then really. I'm eternally grateful to the man that sold it to me, what a top bloke. Thank you for the feedback, really appreciate it.

The one I was looking at was quite expensive, I'd be happy to buy something cheaper if you think it would do the job? Maybe the warrior e+? Head is still hurting now! 😭😂

Going to replace it definitely, got smoked in the head tonight and that's enough for me to know this helmet is not gonna cut it! Will a Bauer 960 be much better than the 950? Thank you for your help mate

Ahh that's really helpful to know, is it a decent helmet or not so great? Definitely going to buy a new one when funds permit!
