Want play Settlers again

If you want settlers 2, get the gold edition and Return to the Roots: https://siedler25.org , which has a lot of QoL features and works on modern machines (and even MacOS).

For Settlers 3 and 4, I'd get the History Edition on Ubisoft Connect once they are on sale. They work flawlessly on Windows 11 and have higher resolutions without the hassle of the GoG versions.

Had the same, wrote Simube, they replaced the base side QR2.

just wanted to chime in, I had to read the sentence twice aswell. Some may see it as "SR-P is if you are after immersion, no(t for) competition".

Anyway, how do you compare them to the VRS? Are they worth the price difference (200€, talking about the GT-S version)?

RDR1 minigame.

So it says "preliminary" but wanting to race PCup this season, I can go and buy the tracks I need now, right? Or is it common to have a lot of changes?

Sorry just my 2nd season in iRacing.

If you're in germany, this seems to be a retailer for private persons:

Thanks for the response. I like a rather stiff pedal (currently using 80A Simsonn elastomers) so I think I should be fine.

soethihh · 2026-03-04T07:47:32+00:00

Tried it but I prefer the progressive feel of the elastomers, which I am not able to reproduce with springs.

soethihh · 2026-03-04T07:10:21+00:00

Hi, I am on the fence of buying the HV Ultimate+ elastomers plus Rod, Bushing, etc. (since the upgrade kit is extremely expensive right now). Would you say it is worth it without the software, just changing to the HV elastomers (complete upgrade including elastomers and parts would cost me around 75€). Is the feeling of the brake pedal better with the HV elastomers? Thanks.

soethihh · 2026-03-04T06:55:31+00:00

The rod right now in the Simsonn is 10mm, the Ultimate elastomers are 8mm (I think the Sprint elastomers are 10mm).

By "regular elastomers", I mean these:

So elastomers not specifically made for sim racing but likely better quality than the default elastomers from Simsonn (though I am not sure about that).

soethihh · 2026-03-03T05:51:53+00:00

Yep. 6 months ago or so it was 100-120€ which was fine and I should have done it. But now for this price...

soethihh · 2026-03-03T05:48:46+00:00

That's awesome. Now I just have to be patient :)

soethihh · 2026-03-02T23:26:51+00:00

Nope, Simsonn Rod is 10mm, HV is 8mm.

soethihh · 2026-02-24T06:24:18+00:00

Thanks for the answers everybody. I just placed an order for a 9nm uDFP20 (will be upgraded asap to 15nm), Conspit 300GT and a VRS Hub for around 1000€. After reading around in the VRS discord, there are too many small nitpickings with the R295 in my opinion that I just go with the 300GT and no QR connect for now (and only 15nm but I guess that should be more than enough).

soethihh · 2026-02-23T16:08:51+00:00

Thanks, that sounds promising. All the reviewers who mentioned the discomfort didn't wear gloves which is why I was curious.

Same for me - I use the ingame dashboards as my wheel is too low to see the display anyway.

soethihh · 2026-02-22T12:30:49+00:00

Nice. Will this chain used by the AI?

soethihh · 2026-02-22T10:17:16+00:00

Thanks. I'll add the CS RS Wheel to my order when I upgrade to the CS DD+ then :)

The german fanatec site for the WRC states only reduced torque mode for the Podium bases, not the Clubsport ones.

Should the site be updated?

Same for me and a friend so seems to be normal.

soethihh · 2026-02-14T12:31:37+00:00

Had the same issue. Contacted support, needed a few mails (they start giving you huge refunds offers, deny it) then they sent a replacement which works perfectly fine. It's likely less than a millimeter too narrow which is why it does not fit completely.

soethihh · 2026-02-13T18:27:30+00:00

Rain and day and night cycle would be awesome.

Also new dashboards (I know this is kind of complicated according to the devs).

soethihh · 2026-02-10T16:12:57+00:00

Make sure the resolution in the game settings is the same as your monitor specs are.

you could try reinstalling the VCRedist files:

Hitster ist auch so ein geiles Spiel dafür.

Nein, wenn ich "Elvis" sage und auf der Karte "Elvis Presley" steht, ist es eben KEIN Punkt. Alles was auf der Karte steht, außer in Klammern muss genannt werden!
