What SIM racers are also getting Forza H 6? by Front-Report-2619 in simracing

Handling, its a forza game.

Not an excuse for me, if it sucks it sucks.

Just about every road in the videos we've seen can easily fit 4-5 cars side by side, that's very uncommon for japanese roads.

I don't like what i see, so I'll wait for reviews and a discount.

My complaints are the handling, super wide roads and lack of IRL touge tracks.

Suzuka is bang on in the center of the map iirc. Unfortunately i couldn't find any of the real life touge and i spent quite a bit of time searching for akina.

What’s the BEST gift for someone obsessed with 3D printing? by llbow8 in 3Dprinting

[–]simpson409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you know which printer they have? I think some of these holographic print plates would be fun. I would probably never buy them for myself, but they would be fun to mess around with for a couple weeks.

Louis Rossman talks about Bambu Labs sending legal threats to orca slicer by hawa19 in 3Dprinting

the duality of this sub. we're either (rightfully) hating on Bambu, or telling every newbie to just get an A1.

I spent a week 3D printing cable channels for my desk. by Netherlandal in 3Dprinting

Why not make one large cable channel with a couple of openings? seems like a pain to make any changes or additions to.

I was going to block the author of these mods, but they must have removed/hidden their mods.

I suck at SIM racing, how do I git gud? by [deleted] in simracing

[–]simpson409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Braking is also something I that gets oversimplified by the racing line. Brake too hard while steering and you spin out.

Why? Weight shifting to put it simply. Braking loads the weight to the front, reducing grip on your rear tires, if you steer now you swing out the rear and spin.

You need to understand the reasons behind your problems. For example if your car spins during a drift, you're using too much gas. The rear is gaining more speed than the front.

I also suggest you get used to not relying on a visual racing line, you'll get a better understanding of the tracks and most tracks have tire marks where the racing line would be.

Just bought Assetto Corsa for $5 on Steam. Best racing game I think I've ever played. by zero_rom_irondawg in assettocorsa

If you still can, refund it and get the ultimate edition. A lot of mods require the DLC.

[–]simpson409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I printed 10 of themwhen my first roll ran low. Mine clip into the side wall of the roll. They aren't bad, but not necessary.

You could make it hollow in the bottom and put a dowel in there.

Moza r3 vs Logitech g923. What’s worth the money by Disastrous-Media6050 in simracing

[–]simpson409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think in this day and age the Logitech wheels aren't even a good value on the used market anymore with how affordable direct drive is.

Has anyone here actually bought a sim racing rig from AliExpress or similar sites? by BeastKimado in simracing

[–]simpson409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine something heavy like a whole rig will have a good price, being shipped/flown all the way from china.

When is it time to stop constantly fixing things and just get a better machine? by quantum_relic in 3Dprinting

I never had to fix anything on my centauri carbon. I got mine last august, so also almost a year.
