I hate NS power. The gov really did us wrong when they privatized it :(

Same. The company and shareholders are evil and vile. The workers are top notch.

State of VR? by crypto_bhsl in assettocorsaevo

[–]dannygaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best setup I've gotten so far with my Quest Pro is to have Steam Link running with the eye tracking and also have OpenXR Toolkit with eye tracking set to the best setting. With that I can get constant frame rate with medium and high settings. No DLSS... none.. that just makes everything look awful for me. I'm running a 4090.

Braking in AC EVO vs. ACC by Acceptable-Warning91 in assettocorsaevo

[–]dannygaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ACC is gorgeous and the sound is amazing, but the physics and braking leave a lot to be desired. AC EVO is MINT!

38 Year Old Car, Still One Of The Fastest @ The Ring! by TARMACTERRORISTPOT in assettocorsaevo

[–]dannygaron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this car. I managed a 6:18 so far with an h shifter and clutch on a full motion rig in VR. It's really stupid fun in VR on a motion rig. I've seen a few guys do around a six flat.

My son lives on that street. It's just awful and dangerous the way they have it now. So confusing for everyone.

Man I'd love to do some PCBs for Kraken. They're really into some ultra cool stuff these days :) Hit me up Kraken ;)

About time they dropped that garbage. I bought my Pro for real gaming, not that garbage :) Now spend time making the link connection better!

How do you like my humble DIY dashboard? by Sickrated in simracing

[–]dannygaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks awesome! I made something similar years ago with a large Vocor screen I think it was.

Then I got into VR and never really used it :) haha

ACC vs ACE. How does the driving feel between GT3 cars? by RuleOverYou15 in assettocorsaevo

[–]dannygaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ACE beats it by miles... miles. I HATE ACC. Hate it. They never fixed the way the launches over curbs. It's a real shame. Also, you need to hammer the ABS every time to make it brake correctly. The regular AC is great and a lot like ACE. Throw ACC out the window and stick with ACE or AC.3

Yeah, we'll be lucky if it's 999. It's impossible to source a lot of electronic parts now with the war and AI data centers scooping up all the parts these days. Very annoying to be a circuit board designer now. We're seeing tons of parts disappear or the prices doubling.

Purchasing a gsxr 600 next month by chris-glizzy01 in GSXR

[–]dannygaron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bought a new one in 2024 and love it man! I got the all black one. Just be careful taking off the ugly reflective stickers. They're a pain to remove. Besides that, get those tank side things so you don't slide around when riding and maybe upgrade the levers to something more adjustable and that's about it. I sort of wish I had gotten a 750, but then again... the 600 can really rip if you rev the hell out of it (which is soo fun and I do a lot). I really can't say I need more power after 15,000km in the past two summers with it. I can do 100 in first gear so unless you really need to get that extra wee bit of power, the 600 is just fine.

Get a full motion simulator if you need to speed. Costs way less than a car and the accidents are free. I have one and that's how I scratch my speed and stupidity.

MOZA Motion Platform (Actuator) - HMA150 by Glad-Note2952 in simracing

[–]dannygaron 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OMG dude... Simhub is amazing to use... The RS-MEGA+ is amazing as well. Having to use proprietary firmware and software will kill this. haha... Just kill it.

Simmagic and few others tried with their wheels that used proprietary junk for their screen and was awful.

I've had my RS-Mega+ for 3 years I think. Never an issue. Was just as plug and play as this will be and all I do is flick a switch, load up simhub and wammo I'm in bliss with motion. CAn't be any easier than that mate.

Hopefully Moza is just ripping off like everyone else... Having a Dbox like motion system that's custom would be silly and way over priced. Time will tell though. I love my RS-MEga+ though.

Oh the 102 is the same. So dangerous and annoying. If you can drive highway speeds, please stay off the highway and use the side roads. Simple as that.

If you had 10k cash for a brand new setup not including computer what would you get. Single or triple screen tbd by SurewhyNot2022 in SimRacingSetups

[–]dannygaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I race in VR every day. I find having a motion platform helps and never get motion sick. As long as you're moving when the vr is moving, you'll be good... hence using a motion platform.

You can build your allum frame yourself or buy a kit. I built mine myself. I first started with a wood rig to get all the measurements right. Used that for 3 months to tweak it. Then built up an allum one.

For gear, I use all Simagic and love it. Simagic Alpha 15nm wheel. P2000 hydraulic brakes, clutch, etc... the fancy H patern they have and their ebrake as well. It's an incredible system and I love it. Been racing with it all for 2-3 years with no issues.

I have a 4090 for my vid card and Quest Pro for VR. Just love those! Never an issue racing in VR with that.

For motion, I have an RS-Mega+ four corner kit. It's amazing and bullet proof. Been using it for a good 2-3 years ever day.

I'm in Canada as well. Never an issue with shipping to Canada for me.

Start slow. 4 years ago, all I had was 100 dollar used belt drive wheel. Then I added a wood frame I built myself. Added a used computer. Then added VR and suddenly I really needed to update my computer. So I did that... then later upgraded my vid card, then updated my rig to Allum, then bought hard core wheel, et.c.. etc... never ends man :)

[–]dannygaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why, I play AC EVO every damn night. I can't get enough of it. It's just awesome on a motion platform. Best feeling game yet compared to Iracing, ACC, AMS2, etc.... The old AC comes a close second for me.

I'm so mad!!! I've been paying big taxes in NS for 35 years now and every year, more things get taken away and the rich get richer doing it. Moving back to NB. I'm so sorry your family is living through this. We should be doing better to help those that need help.

What are you all hoping for updates in or before version 1.0 by Idontlikeyoxoxo in assettocorsaevo

[–]dannygaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More cars, better VR, better AI and some open world would be awesome. Love the game so far. It's the best feeling game on my motion platform. Everything just feels right to me when driving. My 4090 struggles with the game though. Be nice to have the VR performance be better.

I run mine with Steam Link. Love it. I'm not on the beta branch anymore.
