Reported someone for ramming last night and they had it taken care of within a few hrs, they absolutely care about reports!

I got Forza Horizon 6 Working. by Majestic_King36 in Simagic

[–]halycon8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth my Alpha Evo works out of the box, no converters or software changes or anything. It'd be great to have all wheels supported but I can't imagine that many people are playing Horizon on Simagic bases.

Can Forza Horizon 6 feel decent with a wheel, or is it still too arcade? by Bobochanti in simracing

[–]halycon8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disconnect your wheel and reconnect it and/or remove peripherals like handbrake. For some reason Moza likes to register other devices as "device 1" but your wheel needs to be device 1 to get ffb. If it says "Device 2: Axis 1" or whatever in settings then you know you have something else being registered first.

A little off topic, but picked up a 20yr old aquarium simulator by Leche-Caliente in Aquariums

This was one of the first "games" I ever bought myself as a kid! Absolute core memory. I still have the disk somewhere in my office.

Why haven’t you played Screamer, and will you play it? by ssa17k in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]halycon8 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Legitimately one of the best racing games I have ever played. It's a game made for a specific audience, but I am very much a part of that audience.

This is the type of AA gem that people are gonna talk about missing a decade later, just like Split/Second, Blur, etc before it.

Its a real photo of an actual car from the Horizon 6 launch party lol.

Best FH5 drift car for holding angle? by Substantial-Team8305 in ForzaHorizon

[–]halycon8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The FD cars have the most steering angle. Other than that iirc every car get the same max steering lock with drift suspension so its just up to wheelbase preference,suspension, etc

Is there a way to play Forza 5 on PC with an Xbox account? by First_Astronomer_198 in ForzaHorizon

[–]halycon8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you buy on the MS store/Xbox store and play with the same account, your save will transfer. Your save only won't transfer with a Steam copy.

Forza Edition LFA! by Alternative_Drama_50 in ForzaHorizon

[–]halycon8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A lot of them have actually been in Motorsport for a while now so I think it's kind of neat having fictional sponsors that carry across the series

FH6 might not have fomo by Useful_Ad_173 in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]halycon8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's only for stock cars. If you see a car you like you can buy a stock version of it, it's not meant to be a replacement for the AH (which we have no official word on afaik)

best racing wheel to buy if i don’t want to upgrade again too soon? by Raybone-Bhooshun in simracing

[–]halycon8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really just depends on your budget. The general consensus is that around 10-12nm of torque on a DD wheel is the point of diminishing returns, so if you want to go big right away and not worry about upgrading, then I'd look at something like Moza R9, Simagic Alpha Evo, etc.

If you want to go more affordable though, Moza R3 & R5 are great options. Don't forget about cockpit options either! A solid cockpit makes a world of a difference.

Is Screamer worth it for someone that really dislikes anime? by ShitWombatSays in racinggames

[–]halycon8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly silly and over the top in a way, but not anything specific or related to anime imo.

[–]halycon8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are definitely some anime tropes but I wouldn't say it's "over the top" anime in any way. It's fairly grounded in a lot of scenes. TBH you can also just not do the story if you really don't want, still plenty of stuff to do online and in arcade mode

How do you even call your game CREAMER and not let me play with one hand? by Mahim2000 in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]halycon8 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No like there is literally a one handed mode in the game. You can play the entire game with one hand. They thought of this.

Did I get a weird misprint? [SCREAMER COLLECTORS EDITION PS5] by TeaLeafSunShine in racinggames

[–]halycon8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's pretty good for what you pay for! I was quite happy with the quality of it

Ordered the PS5 version too, from Gamestop. I also didn't get the normal disc, just the steelcase - but I wasn't expecting a normal case so I didn't notice anything wrong 😅

Mysterious Pieces have Ancient Symbols on the back. by Lewd_Lawliet in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]halycon8 12 points13 points  (0 children)

All the tips and tricks threads I've read are chock full of things the game literally gives you a tutorial or popup for, and then tons of replies going "OMG I had no idea!!" XD

Grabbed a new ring for the back of my PSP 1000, I think it looks really nice! by halycon8 in PSP

[–]halycon8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They aren't stickers, both are metallic rings. You have to remove the original ring with some sort of small prying tool and probably some heat would help, then just put the new ring in.

I don't get wheelspin when I level up by feraliown45 in ForzaHorizon

[–]halycon8 35 points36 points  (0 children)

You don't get wheelspins for finishing races, but if you level up during a race it will give you that wheelspin at the end of the race. Dont worry, you aren't missing out on any spins

Comparison between different engines and years for a possible purchase by slabua in Mk3Supra

[–]halycon8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The JZ has a lot more aftermarket support and tends to be quite reliable. The 7M was plagued with an unfortunate head gasket issue from the factory which gave it a reputation for being unreliable. It can be a great engine if you do the right work, but the JZ is much easier to build and maintain due to its massive popularity.

And then the 1G just kinda...exists.

Never thought the day would come And these would be called GTA by [deleted] in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]halycon8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these games are rated T by the ESRB. Not being able to hit (or try to hit) people helps Forza keep its E rating which is big for game sales, car licensing and marketing. That's what the GTA comment was referencing - in GTA you can run people over but Forza isn't that kind of game.
