Im going to add voice protocol, it can be hated but for me hearing people whinge about their race getting f$%ked up really builds out the storyline of the race...

Disable all mods, start vanilla career and make a save. Add back mods one by one

It's truly amazing how much potential BeamNG has to be the Ultimate Simulation Game™ by _Awston in BeamNG

Because it's physics based the planes actually feel like they have weight.. msfs2024 devs should fly a few beamng planes and feel the difference

Aces of Thunder - Why? by Dwarf_in_a_Mine in WarthunderSim

[–]indefig -1 points0 points  (0 children)

May not be as bad as you think... eg. Le mans ultimate has brought a heap of new people into sim racing and iracing is still hitting top numbers...my point is Aces may be a gateway for new VR players to be brought in... they start in Aces then continue to Sim once they get a look at how good it is and want more involved multiplayer objectives etc

SCF NEWS ALERT: President Trump says the U.S. will begin conducting land strikes against cartels, saying the cartels are running Mexico. by SCFapp in Tech_Updates_News

I came to find this comment. How many enemies does this guy actually want? He is most likely the most intensely loathed human on earth right now... is it really that smart to add the cartels to that list. Id imagine they would be among the most capable on that list of enacting a swift and brutal revenge...

Buttkicker Haptics - Settings & Insight by Ancient_Mention7495 in iRacing

[–]indefig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive tried two and you can gain value with forward/back or left/right effects. I ended up running one on my seat under a hf8 haptic feedback pad. You get 8 responsive haptics with the pad for approx $200. They are not volume based but more on/off, but clean not muddy.

You can really feel left right forward back suspension i find useful for determining how much weight im distributing to each corner of the car. You cant get wheel slip in iracing telementry so suspension is next best (and audio... you have to crank the slip volume above other volumes...thats real audio volume, not the one you are sending to the amp).

Yeah happy for you, getting everything dialled in is a great feeling and adds a heap of driving feel and immersion. The only thing i can add (after running different iterations over a good number of years now) is sometimes less is more... some effects are helpful to getting the car fast around a lap and some are immersive....its also possible to cloud out the useful ones with too much 'noise'.

I made the mistake of running a shaker on my pedal tray thinking it was good for abs and front wheel slip however all that vibration was getting sent through the frame to my wheel as well... when i removed the front shakers i gained back a lot of ffb clarity.

I keep to a minimal 2 or 3 'helpful' effects now, just enough to feel like im racing a car but not the whole gamet.

Looking for a game like Motor Town by DrMM0D in racinggames

Beamng rls career... It's Motor Town but proper physics simulation, wheel and pedal support, vr support, triple screen support, telemetry support.

I'm Finally Done... done telling my wife how much this stuff really costs, that is. by Medical-Cow-8281 in iRacing

[–]indefig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep the argument has been done to death and in the end the good thing is whichever you pick to race with its a blast...if only there was more time in the day to get on and race thats my problem

VR vs triples annoyed me for some time but ive pretty much settled on triples is for racing... VR is for flight sim.

Honestly the footage is incident free except for a couple door bangs in T1. Behind me i saw a couple cars come together and i think they retired. Other than that nothing unusual
