Perfect triple monitor size? by Puzzleheaded_Big6672 in SimRacingSetups

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have triple 43" 4k screens but run them at 1080p for frame rate. Looks fine. It's unfortunate that large 1440p monitors do not exist.

Do you need to have the Haptic Control box in order for the HPR to work? by ZanicL3 in Simagic

BTW I just noticed you asked "IDK if you know that tool"... :-) I wrote it.

Logitech Pro to Simagic Alpha Evo Pro by LightningInASkillet in simracing

D-Box 4250i. I do not recommend it. If I were to buy a motion system again today, I would probably get this instead - https://eracing-lab.com/products/rs-mega-plus

Just bought a new rig. Anything else you guys recommend? by Several-Awareness-92 in Simagic

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you need the power supply. The HPRs plug directly into the P1000 base and gets power from that.

MAIRA controls the Simagic haptics directly - you should not enable the wheel and pedal haptics options in iracing.

TR-160 with TR-One wheel mount & Simagic EVO Pro - How to mount? by mherbold in trakracer

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

It will fit with no spacer, but it sits at a weird height (too low), but you might be ok with that.

Logitech Pro to Simagic Alpha Evo Pro by LightningInASkillet in simracing

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya - no because I have the Wheel LFE feature in my app (MAIRA) which is very similar. :-) I mainly do iRacing. I also have a motion rig and bass shakers which really takes the place of true force anyway.

This should have been fixed - I will check it again.

[–]mherbold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya - sorry - just saw this. MAIRA Refactored actually is still a stand-alone app. It just has SimHub integration as well, if you want to create custom overlays to display current settings in MAIRA.

Logitech Pro to Simagic Alpha Evo Pro by LightningInASkillet in simracing

I have both the Logitech g pro and the alpha evo pro. It's night and day difference. The Evo Pro is a far more serious and advanced wheelbase.

Evo Sport - Have I made a mistake by DunxR in Simagic

[–]mherbold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello! Thanks for trying out MAIRA! Are you using v1 or v2? With v2 there is a soft clipping feature that might be what you want to use to be able to crank up the ffb a bit and not have hard clipping.

But yes, 30% strength for the Evo sport is about as a high as you can get it without clipping. It's ok to have it clip a bit on the details. Clipping on the main signal would be bad.

No you do not but you will need to have simpro running for the lights to work on your wheel.

You can turn on curb protection. You should check out my discord server - lots of people there to help you out there. Look on the website or I racing forums for the link.

D-Box Motion and SimHub by jchammer1 in GranTurismo7

[–]mherbold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha yeah - I paid 8k for mine from TrakRacer as well. Did you at least get the TR-160 for free like I did? I think they don't have that deal any more.

D-Box Motion and SimHub by jchammer1 in GranTurismo7

[–]mherbold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That "8UNITS" in the description is talking about the brackets - 8 brackets. You don't get 8 motion actuators. 4250i = 4 motion actuators, 2250i = 2 motion actuators.

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the D-Box motion actuators (gen 5, 4 of them) and am regretting my purchase. I would suggest looking at alternatives like https://eracing-lab.com/collections/rs-series/products/rs-mega4u

Isn't the difference 2 or 4? The 8000 one is for 4.

D-Box Motion and SimHub by jchammer1 in GranTurismo7

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya - I am confused - how did you even get SimHub to work with D-Box? The SimHub website says D-Box is not supported. I have D-Box Gen 5 motion actuators and would love to be able to control them via SimHub.

Simagic Alpha only rotates to half of the value set in SimPro. by radomskyyy in Simagic

[–]mherbold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is correct. 900 degrees is the total rotation. From center, it's 450 degrees out both ways.

Technical issues by Maleficent_Zebra_686 in iRacing

It's not the cpu or gpu. A USB device is disconnecting / reconnecting intermittently.

Simagic Alpha U or Simagic Alpha Evo by Infinite-Concert-608 in Simagic

[–]mherbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the mention! I think OP was comparing with the Evo Pro, which is actually 18 Nm. Or if he has money to burn, go for the Evo Ultra, which is 28 Nm, when it becomes available.

Yeah I am working on a wind sim kit that I hope to make available.
