So if you haven't been paying attention to Assetto Corsa lately, you should give Sol (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/sol.24914/) a try. It adds a full 24 hour cycle to the game (with proper sun and moon position depending on date and location of track), several weather settings and an great dynamic color grading that really livens up the picture. Add the shaders light patch (which has come a long way since I tried it last) and you can have proper endurance racing going from night to day. You'll need Content Manager to get the most out of it though, but these things together really transform the game quite a bit. It's really impressive and becoming rather seamlessly integrated (again, provided you use CM). You can add the Wet Mod too, although that is probably always going to be mostly visual with a flat grip reduction, which I'm not that much into. Here's Jimmy giving it a try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyxcMCTRIeQ

I had forgotten dirt rally 2 was coming out soon. Looks like a more faithful sequel than dirt 4 was. Good car list. Locations seem a bit limited with only 6 to start with but maybe they will add more with the season dlc? The steelcase thing looks cool and I love the cmr 2.0 design but it doesn’t look like you can get the PC version with that in Australia.

Is there going to be native Vive support this time?

You just reminded me that I have yet to try Dirt Rally with triples. I need to get on that. VR for me was insta-puke, and I never could get used to it. Triples however, I'm fine with.

You can't just jump straight into VR. You have to ease in to it

It depended on the track for me. If it was something mostly flat like Germany or Monte Carlo the VR wasn't too bad, but then I loaded up Wales and within a minute my inner ear started to revolt.

Lateral movement was fine for me, but it turns out there are a lot of jumps and dips in rally. Did they ever explain why they weren’t doing VR for launch? Seems like they had a lot more budget this time so it’s kind of surprising.

Yeah, playing Rally in VR was a little rough for me at first, but I've gotten used to it now. I'll notice a touch of vertigo if I haven't played for a while, but before the first stage is over I'm good. Greece and Wales were the worst for a while, holy crap. I'll probably grab 2.0 once people have played it a bit. Dirt 4 was a bit of a letdown after Rally.

Anyone here run much Raceroom? I bought the full 'all the cars' pack a while ago and the AI is fun but would be good to get some mp races going sometime.

Been getting back into Dirt Rally while I manage my expectations for DR2. (please be good, please be good, please be good) Had a couple nice flicks through one of my favourite corners in wales and the hairpin right after that is often hard to get right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrAeSbeq984

I'll open my wallet as soon as it has VR support  (I can no longer play non-VR simracing games....it's awful.)But I understand that it's - sadly - not viable from a business standpoint, as it seems.

Yeah, I took the ultrawide monitor off my simpit and put it on my desk because I don't play any flight/driving games without VR anymore. Here's hoping DR2 has VR support!

To be honest, I'd be fine with some kind of "VR for DR2" kickstarter thingy, or similar. I understand when companies don't wanna invest in VR because they think they can't make the money back. I'd have no problem with them saying "we need amount X of pre-orders for it, then we'd do it, so here is your chance to pre-order". If not enough is raised, everybody tried there best, and live goes on. The problem with that, I guess, is that the developer would have to open up about what the VR implementation actually costs in their company/engine. But overall, I'd be fine with such a thing, and I guess most simracing nerds would.

I'm not sure into how much detail I can really go about costs, lets just say that adding VR at the moment in its life cycle could be viewed more as marketing spend... And what gets supported (vive, occulus etc,) is as much about which of the manufacturers is willing to foot some, if not all, of the bill.

It sits in in box in my little VR head set museum alongside my old Vuzix gear. Right now I'm waiting for the market to mature a little before I consider replacing my own personal Vive. The knuckles are good though. I'm loving mine. :p (I scored a pair while helping out the developer of "Go For Launch" who's an old friend of mine.)

Finally... Yes Dirt Rally 2.0 will support VR, Its Oculus support because they offered to help cover some of the dev costs.

I just can't deal with spending 30 minutes trying to get my Vive to work right.  Oculus is pouring money into blocking other vendors from being able to secure games, which I get as a small developer is a huge benefit to you, but it's lovely and anti-consumer.

Question: what does that mean in regard to VR support in future F1 games? Is it the same engine/would it make VR support easier for future Codemaster games? btw: Revive works rather fine for me, what exactly breaks for you between updates?

I get what you're saying, but on the other hand, Oculus is  -ing money to bring VR to a game that wouldnt have had it, so its a good thing for VR in general. Revive sounds like it sucks, but hopefully Vive users will be able to experience the game too.
