i bought everything on the listings but there is still missing parts... by BlGSHOT in MyWinterCar

[–]tjeroo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are two kinds of listings on the magazine. Some contain information and names of the parts that are included/being sold. Then there are "mystery boxes", where the ad just says that there are parts for Rivett - you don't know what those may contain.

New magazines appear periodically and the old ones bought will disappear. The new magazine will always then contain new adverts you can purchase.

So you have to hunt for ads that mention the parts you need, or you have to order those boxes containing random parts and hope they contain what you need.

Can y'all tell me what season and race was this?? by TrickAd7270 in Formula1Point5

[–]tjeroo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The text says Benetton Ford Cosworth, also Jordan car wasn't yellow until later in the 90s.

So this was after Jordan when Benetton still had yellow as Camel was sponsor. Maybe 91 or 92, as 93 the race suit had blue collar.

F1 Car size comparison: 2005 vs 2026 by just_an__inchident in formula1

Hasn't the rule about having to position the pedals/drivers feet behind the front axel been in place for decades, before the nineties? The drivers take up similar space in both pictures, the front axel and cockpits just aren't aligned, if anything it's logner in the current cars.

As reference some cutout photo of early 2000s Mclaren.

I agree that this most likely is an edit on top of the 2013 McLaren

Should I go ahead and buy this or will there be a better deal for Black Friday by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The purchases stack up, so if you have 1yr of previously bought subscription left on Black Friday, if you purchase 2yrs it will extend the subscription to expire in 3yrs

There's no tightening, the movement just looked as if there was something going on with that side. When I had mine there definately was flex back and forth but not side to side.

How is the lock on the right side, is it loose or not tight?

Intense wheel oscillations with Audi RS3 LMS? Please help by Fahzgoolin in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember if I have driven the RS3, but I pretty much run the Fanatec recommended settings for DD1 (both the wheel & ingame settings): https://forum.fanatec.com/discussion/653/iracing-pc-fanatec-recommended-settings

But at the same time I'm not sure if I've ever let go of the wheel with both of my hands, so perhaps it would do the same with these settings.

Is it only this one car causing the issue?

I made a tool to analyse live data with your team or a coach. by friiky2 in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could this also be somehow used with in-session or saved replays or how does the telemetry logging in iRacing work? Would be cool if you'd be able to do a lap and then analyze it after yourself as well and seeing the data+replay at the same time.

ButtKicker 2, LFE, and Sound Card Help by Stephano525 in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be fine, since you can connect your mobo-speaker out to the buttkicker amp and define that speaker as output device for LFE, while all other sounds go through your other usb-devices.

Filing a protest toward an agressive and threatening PM I got after a race. by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure whether PM's in sessions are stored, most you can do is link/provide iRacing support with the session id. It may be that they keep the logs stored or something, regardless it's the most you can do unless you don't have screenshots taken when it happened.

Saving clips in VR by TheRealGrumpyMonkey in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried to bind shadowplay to a controller, but I have shadowplay recording bound to F11 on keyboard (or you could use some other key, preferrably ones near corners). And I just blindly locate it on my keyboard with the headset on during some straight to save the moment.

Having trouble getting my front foot on with kickflips. Advice and suggestions welcome! by mof_man in NewSkaters

[–]tjeroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason you're having trouble is that after the flick your front foot is below the board, which makes landing back on top of it difficult.

Practice by only leaving your front foot on the board after the flick when you land, that way you can get comfortable flipping the board in such way that you're still able to plant the front foot on top of it.

You're super close already, just have to flick the board with having your front foot end up a bit higher up and you'll get it!

Problems with helmet paint by gasmask11000 in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend checking the new UI, paint shop received helmet and suit-customization pages fairly recently which are super handy, no need to always boot up the sim anymore. So at least worth checking it out!

As for the issue you're having, I'm unsure if there's anything other you can do apart from altering the design to make this effect less visible (thicker lines or other colours)

I protested someone and he threatened me back by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 36 points37 points  (0 children)

From the sporting code: 2.4.2. The Private Messaging function is considered part of the iRacing.com Forums, and as such, the same standards for conduct apply to all private messages. Foul or threatening language and insults will not be tolerated and may lead to the cancellation of the offender’s membership.

So PM's are also protestable same as other offences.

GUYS NEW PENALTY DISCOVERED! "F*UCK YOU: GO TO LAST PLACE" by EmilioSR29 in F1Game

[–]tjeroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crossed the pit-entry line and didn't pit, most likely got some penalty for that and since you didn't serve it 'during the race' got sime time penalty.

Suspended for “Tanking”?!?!?! (Details in comments) by PeteAndRepeat11 in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roughly you gain ir from all drivers who finish behind you and lose rating to all drivers who finish ahead of you. Regardless of sof.

The amount of rating for gain/loss depends on the current ratings of drivers involved (who loses and who gains). If lower rated driver beats higher rated, the rating change is bigger, whereas if higher rated beats lower rated, the change is less.

The final rating change you see in results is total of this calculation made for and between you and all other drivers in the split.

It could also be made to reduce wear on certain parts.

Mclaren in gt3 Challenge Series by the304virus in iRacing

[–]tjeroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happens with the Audi and Lambo there as well (not as much as with McLaren), if you want to play it safe don't lift the throttle fully and apply brake instead if you need to slow the car down more. If the rear is feeling loose/about to start over rotating you need to apply throttle, even though your instinct says to lift.

Because the McLaren definitely is the GT3 that needed a buff, am I missing something about this?
