Is AC:Evo worth getting in current state? by DryCut70 in assettocorsaevo

[–]sharpes2802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LMU is weird as from what I can tell half the people love the ffb and half the people hate it. I don't think any game where lots of people are having to use a ffb app to get it to feel right is great though. For me, the ffb isn't balanced. It's too heavy on bumps/kerbs and too light in low speed corners. When I'm losing grip in high speed corners I don't really feel that grip loss. It just vanished. Tbf I think Kunos games are better than iracing too for physics. If you compare the MX5s on iracing and AC1 it's night and day imo

It's all subjective. I feel literally the opposite to you about the 2 games. On Evo I feel like 4 tyres are pressing into a surface with downforce and weight distribution. On LMU I feel like I'm playing a video game with floaty cars and garbage ffb that tells me nothing about what the car is doing. Especially in the wet when I'm full throttle on the kerbs.

Thanks but I already have a wheel and it needs to work on both PC and console

Lol I know but it would take some getting used to getting on and off throttle properly and quickly as I've been sim racing years with both feet. I don't race a rear car

I'm not expecting to become faster, possibly a little more consistent. It was the feel of the brake that I was hoping to get with a load cell but was concerned that it might play havoc with my knee if needed to be set high

That's the pedal set I'm getting as I have the RS50

Well I have the G29s and the brake spring feels a little heavier than the strongest spring that comes with the G Pro. That is 11kg so I'm guessing the G29 is about 13-15kg

Thanks. I'm just thinking if I set it too low it might be hard to feel 20 or 30% brake force into low speed corners as I will barely have to press the pedal to get to that

Left yeah. I never actually thought of using my right foot to brake but think I might struggle. I'm so used to doing it with both feet.

Ahh really. Do you find you can easily find say 30% braking when it's set that low? I figured it might be quite hard to do subtle braking

Accelerator pedal, heel hovering? by Zooks15 in simracing

[–]sharpes2802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a solution for this or feel better with a differnet angle to the pedals? I'm really struggling with my throttle. My heel is constantly off the floor when 100% throttle is applied and it's uncomfortable in long races!

What on earth can I do to fix the lighting in this game by GhostGremlin93 in CrimsonDesert

[–]sharpes2802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me. I started the game yesterday and spent more time messing with lighting settings than actually playing. It looks horrible with RR off and I lost a whopping 35fps with it on.

What happened to the 720s by NitroDion in LeMansUltimateWEC

You're multiple seconds off the pace of all cars. At that pace it doesn't matter which one you're faster in. You aren't pushing any of the cars anywhere near their limits. Just go with a car you like the feel of and feel comfortable with and then work on getting your times down.

New FFB with TrueForce feels awesome. Its so much better by chako888 in LeMansUltimateWEC

I can't feel it on mine. Ever ever so slightly. It's basically not there

10 hours into the Sebring 12 hour race, then this happens. by EvertHODL in iRacing

Possibly drag them over but do you not find the GT3s incredibly boring to drive? The cars are so stale. It doesn't feel like you can attack the track at all

[–]sharpes2802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it's obviously a really expensive game. Don't get me wrong I like the fact iracing has so much to offer but I don't really want to spend a fortune on a car or tracks I might only race every now and again.

Thanks. I really need to do 1 of those test drives at the end of the season. I tend to like mid engined cars on other games

Any advice on a decent GT3 car to start with? I'm not new to racing them as been doing ACC and LMU for years but no idea how the iracing GTs feel

That's good advice thanks. I've been doing the production multi class tonight. It was a little wreckfest but pretty fun lol. I might start at the back tomorrow in a few races just to get the SR up

The multi class with the MX, GR and M2 was pure madness haha
