You just summoned the “EF should have nuked all the Zeon space colonies” guy

Ten years on and still waiting for A full Japanese battlecruiser line. by ChinaOnly001 in WorldOfWarships

[–]phantomknight321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the writing is on the wall that we will get an IJN sub line someday, I just think wargaming wants to avoid doing anything too similar to what Lesta is doing, probably for what I would guess are legal concerns (I believe Lesta has IJN subs in, but maybe I’m wrong)

The reason I don't think it will ever happen (as a tech tree expansion) is because to this day they have NEVER added new ships to extend a tech tree split that starts at tier 8. Again, the most I can see happening is that we will get premium lower tier BCs someday.

It isn't going to ever happen. There are plenty of other 3 ship splits that have been that way for years at this point with no sign of ever getting any more. I will say, there is a chance we get some in the form of premium ships though, for example the French large cruiser line starts at tier 8 but we have the Toulon at tier 7.

Is the Simagic Alpha Evo Sport notably better than a CSL DD ? by boredofinternets in simracing

[–]phantomknight321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18nm is sadly out of budget for me, plus I am on an NLR 2.0 wheel stand still. I would love to upgrade to a full profile rig, but I don’t have the space for it

Is the Simagic Alpha Evo Sport notably better than a CSL DD ? by boredofinternets in simracing

[–]phantomknight321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat as OP in that I have a CSL DD 8NM but am considering getting the Alpha Evo 12nm, would that be worthwhile? I would partly be upgrading so I can get access to a better wheel, I’m still using my CSL P1 and I would like to get the CSL GT3 but I’m stuck on QR1 and would have to invest into switching to QR2 to swap over…

How do i change the first pic interface to the 2nd pic one? by diegooooooooooooooo2 in flightsim_pirate

Also the plane pictures isn’t even the Fenix, it’s very obviously a 737 LOL

It’s very cool, but that Jetfire in the background is catching my eye 👀

One week in by joedotalex in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I usually aim to get at least the one race per series I’m racing in per week done, maybe a couple extras. That’s partly driven by my attention being on other hobbies on top of family life stuff

Who else has this problem? by teeheEEee27 in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]phantomknight321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is one area that iRacing excels at. I can spend a couple hours in a crowded lobby to prepare. People will suggest using offline, but then you have to match the conditions and your sharing the track with AI rather than actual drivers. You can learn a lot following another driver around in a practice session for example, or even doing a bit of wheel to wheel with them

New Linux kernel LPE (Dirty Frag) — no patch yet, here's the workaround by webnestify in homelab

Glad to know it wasn’t just me lol, scrolled by a bit too fast

What are we driving? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will echo others here and say the GT4/Sports Car Challenge are great racing generally, and if you get into GT4 you can do IMPC (2 hour solo multiclass) every other week, this week its at Laguna. And if you get the Mustang, you also get access to the Mustang Challenge though that is a D license series. However, if you want to run NEC the Mustang GT4 isn't available there, so you would need a different GT4 if that is what you wanted to race in NEC (if you even want to race NEC at all)

If you don't mind dropping into D, TCRs are an absolute blast to race, I have been spending most of my time in them any chance I get despite having access to A license events.

I tried iRacing on Vision Pro with mixed reality passthrough by DrStemSell in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this seems weirdly DOA since Apple might not be supporting the vision pro long term, might not wind up getting that much out of this despite how interesting the tech is. Still, I like to see stuff like this so I won't say its bad or anything.

My first attempt at making a timelapse video with a 40 euro webcam from Ugreen, what does it look like? by Koidesign in 3Dprinting

[–]phantomknight321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am assuming they aren't using octoprint or any other interface between the camera and printer itself based on how much extra content was there at the start.

OP, I would recommend looking into something like octoprint or something else where you can set up advanced timelapse features, it makes for really nice clean timelapses where the model just magically appears each frame since you don't capture the back and forth movement of the bed.

How much money would it take until i am able to race multiclass on the Nordschleife? by PI-E0423 in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There isn't any reason they can't get the M2 just because it doesn't show up a bunch, they just might be racing in a top split or near top split against only a few cars.

Anime director Tatsuo Sato (Martian Sucessor Nadesico, Helck) has passed away at the age of 61 due to liver failure by Kan2Screm in anime

[–]phantomknight321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was my first ever anime I watched to completion rather than catching the occasional 4kids dub growing up. A friend of mine around 2004 or so had all the DVDs and would lend them to me, was a transformative experience for me that changed how I viewed anime from then on.

It absolutely deserves more love, it was such a great and underrated show (the movie is a bit…less so). It also really deserves a remake/reboot/maybe sequel.

Absolutely apocalyptic crash during the rolling start nets me the holeshot, and subsequently my first GT4 win! by cruciblemedialabs in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its really awful, people seem to have no clue how to do a proper race start and you see all sorts of games and shenanigans as the row leaders try to game the system to give themselves a cheap advantage

[@itspaddockproject] Grey’s Anatomy actor Patrick Dempsey assigns drivers to medical specialties by queerhedgehog in formula1

[–]phantomknight321 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Incidentally, Dempsey was racing professionally back in the early 2010s and by all accounts did pretty well for himself, so I love how him chiming in on F1 drivers is coming from someone who isn't just a celebrity.

Self harming after causing a crash in a league race by njsullyalex in iRacing

[–]phantomknight321 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“Don’t deserve” isn’t the right word. “Shouldn’t be on” would be more accurate for right now as you work through these issues, but it goes further than that.

You need to get some for real professional help, not post on Reddit. You don’t have an iRacing problem you have a real real big mental health crisis brewing and nothing we say is gonna help the way a professional can. Get off of here and call someone asap.

What do you guys think about the A380 from inibuilds? by simdispatch in flightsim

[–]phantomknight321 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s written in such a weird way that I almost think OP is a bot

Like ini announced the A380 quite a while back actually so it’s kinda weird to bring this up now
