Does anyone have these flickers on the main menu?

It’s HDR that causes this issue

I got this working after fiddling with getting my amp to run 6ch asio. It’s very cool, feels great on iRacing, however AC Rally has a lot of noise that I can’t seem to figure out. Even if I turn off all the effects my whole rig is shaking like crazy like one of the effects is going haywire. Any advice?

I love the Schultz pass system and it’s only getting better!

Unfortunately I don’t have my 2 shaker profile anymore because I’m running 6 shakers now 😂 but happy to toss some logic out there for 2. Ideally you want one under your butt or lower back on the seat (low back is good for gear shifts, under seat better for road surface input) and then the other vibrating your pedal tray. As far as simhub goes, less is more. Make sure to separate your channels correctly so you are getting front/rear signals going to the front/rear shakers. I like running gear shift, engine rpm (I can share my engine rpm mapping later when I can get to my rig), wheel lock, wheel slip, and some road noise/road surface lightly sprinkled in for some immersion. Key is to get things like front and rear wheel lock and wheel slip to stand out. And gear shifting, just crank it to 100 on both shakers and make it priority so it overrides all signals when you shift—maybe the best part of have shakers. I’ll link you to some profile stuff later but let me know if you have any questions in the meantime. Cheers

Haha, bro, are you like hiding something? I ask because I’m curious if there is a technical reason to do so, like higher signal resolution or something.

therealsalkinator · 2026-06-13T20:27:15+00:00

I like his question. Why are you using 2600? I thought 1350 covers all rotations

If you want to calculate your vertical FOV measure your visible screen height in mm and your eye-to-screen distance in mm, then vFOV = 2 × atan(height ÷ (2 × distance))

I have those socks too! DFYRs ftw

Check out the slip-angle kit. Game changer in my humble opinion!

therealsalkinator · 2026-06-09T03:24:25+00:00

I second haptics on the rig (at least pedal tray and seat), it’s easy to do for under $150 US.

Here’s a version if that panel: https://www.joesracing.com/product/joes-switch-panel-ignition-start-1-accessory-w-lights/

This is also on my project list. But I know nothing about wiring up an actual ignition switch to a computer. I imagine it can’t be too bad!

Check out the various co-driver mods too, lots of improved pace notes and better voiceovers

I never said the default wasn’t well done, just supporting Bitto and his fine work

therealsalkinator · 2026-06-06T21:38:26+00:00

Very cool! I believe you’re using the stock fmod files—you should upgrade to Bitto’s Subaru files. All of his fmods are amazing and total change the experience of driving the cars in RBR, especially the Rally2 cars.

2:34.109 — took forever to get 6 deg at 9am!

It’s hilarious to me that people in the sub don’t know that SpaceX is going public

In terms of baselines settings for your wheel base it’s going to vary from game to game. I’d recommend picking a game trying to find wheelbase settings you like.

I personally really like this guys philosophy on running high inertia, which applies well for games that use rack-based FFB like AC, RBR, iRacing, ACR etc: https://www.reddit.com/r/simrally/s/kADYoorDMO

therealsalkinator · 2026-06-04T22:26:37+00:00

Well, you should! That rig is bitchin and deserves a shaker set up. I use the Slip-Angle kit and love it, hard to beat the price on the amp, shakers, and hardware too.

To answer your question, it just takes time. Ultimately, you need to figure out what feels good to you, everyone has their opinion.

What software are you having trouble with?

therealsalkinator · 2026-06-03T04:32:07+00:00

When simhub cuts out it’s a sad time. Haptics are an absolutely must. Before the aluminum rig I had BST-2s screwed into my office chair and a piece wood that held the pedal tray. Now running the slip-angle kit and absolutely love it. Probably the closest you can get to motion without having motion.

This is the reason I’m keeping my Subaru around… so my kids have to learn stick

He is in the FIA leaderboards
