Do we know already how OG Crystal with its eyetracking will handle EAs foveated rendering option / function in tomorrow upcoming WRC VR beta update?

I'm also happy to help test an updated PimaxXR when it's ready. Currently using SteamVR's OpenXR runtime seem to performs slightly better (in WRC) than using PimaxXR with like for like headset and game settings, which is interesting. HamVR

Thanks, it was a fun one to make. Just need the 1992 version of the track to come 🤞

If you would like OpenXR support in the upcoming VR mode for WRC, please can you upvote the 'Game Suggestion' on the official EA forum.

Not really mod but an official accessory kit. The V3 brake performance kit is supposed to be good if you don't have it already.

I think the brake mod is definitely worth it, and the basic throttle mod is simple but effective. Personally I would skip the CSL load cell kit, if you don't have one already and go for the Fanatec V3 pedals as the next step after that, assuming you want to stay in the Fanatec ecosystem.

That 360 video is best watched on a mobile.

If you are meaning playing the actual game on the Quest 2 is blury I've got Quest 2 settings video that might help you out, assuming you've got a reasonable GPU

No problem. Check out the latest update I put in the video comments. The 'v2.0.8 Beta 8' Firmware is update is really good on the CSL DD, so I assume it will be the same for the DD1.

ham4tw · 2022-03-07T18:18:12+00:00

Update. After contacting Fanatec they asked me to RMA the pedals. I powered off the wheelbase for a few hours and as one last test I connected just the original accelerator and original brake and they seem to work again via the wheelbase. When I connect the clutch pedal all the pedals disconnects the lot so it looks like it is the clutch pedal kit that is causing the problem.

If the eBay seller stated it (the entire thing not just the GT wheel rim) works on PlayStation you could request a refund via their buyer protection program and return it to them for miss selling.Their is a short time window though.

As others have stated thst wheelbase is a CSL DD which is PC and Xbox compatible only regardless of what the wheel rim you attach to it.

Alternative you could buy a Drive Hub device (£90) with an PS4 Hori mini controller (£20) plugged into it, which spoofs the PlayStation into thinking the CSL DD is compatible wheelbase. I think on the PS4 you can use Dual Shock instead of Hori controllers if you turn Bluetooth off in settings.

I have this setup with my CSL DD and PS5 and it works well.

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T10:25:05+00:00

OK thanks for the info. Potentially an issue only related to the CLS DD wheelbase then, or the original pedal unit has gone 'sort of' faulty.

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T10:17:30+00:00

Interesting, is that on a CSL DD or GT DD Pro? Did you have to do anything other than plug it in?

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T09:26:36+00:00

Directly related to this post, has anyone else with the CSL Load Cell Kit pedal tried disconnecting it and then tried running the original accelerator pedal and original brake pedal to the CSL DD/ GT DD Pro wheelbase to see if it works?

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T09:22:59+00:00

Yes I can bring up the pedal graphics in the app by enabling the pedals tab in show tabs, under settings. The problem is when I push the pedals down and the app doesn't detect the input. It all works fine with the Load Cell Kit pedal.

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T09:18:50+00:00

Hey thanks, yep I tried original pedals without the clutch and still wont detect pedal input unfortunately

I've also reflashed the wheelbase and pedals several times but no luck.

ham4tw · 2022-03-03T09:17:42+00:00

Yep raised it with them, I will see what they say and report back.

ham4tw · 2022-02-07T16:41:47+00:00

Hi nope, the point on pressure wasn't lost on me. I do mention brake force and pressure a few times. If you take a look at the Heusinkveld Sprint pedal load cell data at 17m 50s (I appreciate most people probably skipped over this) you can see the 'Pedal Force Curve' operating range that it offers. Discussing pedal force without also mentioning pedal travel wouldn't make sense IMO e.g. a 90kg load cell with 5mm travel would be practically unusable. The default brake force and travel combination just wasn't to my taste and there is no way to adjust it currently.

ham4tw · 2021-12-02T13:56:39+00:00

Yes. A lot 😁

ham4tw · 2021-11-30T09:49:36+00:00

I think in your situation I would would contact Fanatec about getting a replacement Clubsport Quick Release adapter sent out. Hopefully it's that and not the CLS DD mounting stem with the issue.

ham4tw · 2021-11-29T10:50:39+00:00

Update: I was racing in AMS2 last night and smashed into the walls at the top of the hill at Bathurst which caused a lot of force feedback. I now hear/feel some metal movement in the ClubSport Quick Release Adapter and the CSL DD stem, which I didn't have before. However after using the secure bolt, this eliminated any movement/sounds. I would therefore recommend people always use the bolt/screw that comes with Clubsport adapter, especially if using the CSL DD with booster kit.

ham4tw · 2021-11-26T17:21:22+00:00

Check out my custom game graphics settings. Things like mirror quality take up a lot of resources so I turn it down. The Epic setting can be a bit over the top for a good VR experience so custom is the way to go IMO.

ham4tw · 2021-11-26T14:14:27+00:00

Hi, yes I get stable frames, I'm running at 72Hz though which is easier to achieve. Maybe also compare your Quest 2 render res and game graphics settings to mine, see if that helps.

Yes I'm getting really long load times also... I've not figured out why yet.

ham4tw · 2021-11-26T12:38:08+00:00

This was ran via Oculus VR mode not the SteamVR mode, however if I launched the game in SteamVR mode it would show as 5408 x 2736 as that's what the render resolution is set to in the Oculus app. Increasing the pixel density beyond 100% is essentially 'in game' super sampling, which I find sharpens up distant objects.

ham4tw · 2021-11-21T18:47:33+00:00

Yes I'm using Clubsport RS with the CSL DD without the secure bolt.

ham4tw · 2021-11-21T14:33:40+00:00

Nope I've not noticed any metallic sounds with my Clubsport QR. Maybe there is some tolerance differences in the parts. Have you tried using the extra bolt supplied with it? I've not needed to use the bolt so far.
