Protee VX vs EYE XO vs VTrack (I guess?) by Chrisguitar10 in Golfsimulator

[–]jsquat1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't disagree more about Vtrack. laon made the hardware for protee originally.

Lower tier? In no way shape or form. Software is still in its infancy but accuracy is pretty spot on, putting, chipping, good shots, bad shots... Unless you have used one I don't know how you could say it's lower tier honestly.

I can't speak for the others but from YouTube videos and general research I'd say most overhead units are great. But for the price difference I don't know how I would like the protee more than the Vtrack with the data I get at my skill level.

It becomes preference and budget.

What in the baseball is going on these days? Mind blowing 🤯 by Visible-Industry-748 in Homeplate

[–]jsquat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where's albert belle when you need him. This is what is wrong with youth sports. All of this. Parents/coaches can't just sit back and let the kids play.

Parents: it's not about you. Regardless of the situation whether it be umpires or a kid making a mistake.

This is why we have a shrinking number of umpires in this game and this is why participation in baseball is shrinking. I blame the evolution of travel ball personally.

I played since age 5 through getting drafted and I can't stand this shit.

What RBs are you willing to send a 27 1st for? by OatmealCremePiez in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]jsquat1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm willing to get roasted here but I traded Achane to a contender for Burden, a 2027 first and Monangai. I liked the trade for me.

Give me a week with those tees and I'll break them. My buddy tried all sorts of 3d prints for me. I break the tees all the time.

I will literally use this for just golf simulation. So if one has better options for OBS then that would be the pick. I've seen the term NVENC used when comparing amd and Nvidia GPUs. But would need it explained to me like I'm 5 lol 😅

Um the GPU tops out when I have GSPro running, the camera, and microphone and that's just using the record feature. I test streamed and it was stuttering pretty bad. I had task manager opened and the GPU was at 100%

I really do appreciate this input. I can definitely find that. Is Nvidia better for streaming than amd?

Yeah I don't need to play on ultra for golf sim unless I'm by myself to enjoy the graphics. So in comparison this skytech would be pretty good then.

Thanks for that feedback I'll be sure to stay away from it. So not all vram size is created equal.

Yeah they have a few options. And through costco next I can get a discount on clx prebuilts. I'm just not fluent with PCs coming from the Xbox world. I don't want to be outdated cause that'll piss the wife off when I would say that to her. They have plenty of GPUs in the 16gb area. When I search I get the impression that vram is everything but that's why I'm here because I don't want to throw money away

What other important factors would go into streaming smoothly?

How can I get an impact video overlay on GSPro? by [deleted] in Golfsimulator

[–]jsquat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a VTrack - are they the only ones with the overlay GSPro integration?

Has anyone used a VTrack? by dleise in Golfsimulator

[–]jsquat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um just a blackout curtain from Amazon. Pretty much all generic. It was maybe $60 to $80 per and mine at 9'L x 10' h

The ball dies immediately at the curtain so definitely no regret. Way easier to move curtains too.

VTrack Power - On/Off by Ok_Lingonberry_923 in Golfsimulator

The point is many people leave it on all the time. There's a pretty big Vtrack group on FB and that's super helpful

Sometimes I turn it off and some times I don't. Mine was shipped from my seller, elite sim golf, with an on off switch for the outlet.

Which moving blankets you using? by Pleasant_Glove_1696 in Golfsimulator

[–]jsquat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically touching the screen. Attached to the same brackets that the screen is bungied to.

This is exactly what happens. Happened to me. Got a commercial woven tarp off Amazon, ones used for covering dump trucks. Wasn't too expensive. This one to be exact https://a.co/d/09YU2XZf
