I gave up on RSRBR each time I tried to get it working right. Couldn't ever get my G27+shifter to work right, the cameras blow and I couldn't figure out the camera-hack thing. Everything felt really floaty too, just because it's rally doesn't mean tires don't sometimes... grip.

I haven't tried PCars yet (soon to be remedied), but AC is anything but a letdown imo. It doesn't have a huge variety of cars/tracks first party but the modding support is robust and the quality of the released and upcoming mods is high, and the FFB is excellent. Dreampack/1.1 (preordered already) comes out on payday... I might get a wheel again before I have a real desk at home.  The single best sim experience I've yet had is Alfa GTA on Targa Florio in Power & Glory, everything is just so visceral. The dream pack comes with a GTA, and the Targa conversion lives, so the future is looking bright.

Copy/paste car/track folder into /steaminstallpath/Assetto Corsa/content/(tracks or cars), though steam workshop will eventually be integrated. Last significant mod bork was when sound was transitioned to fmod, before 1.0. e: Speaking of mods... URD's 2004 Audi DTM is out (beta?) http://www.virtualr.net/audi-a4-dtm-2004-ac-released

Control Volume posted:Also I guess this is the best place to ask, if I were to say build a cockpit out of PVC, where the hell do I find a seat for that? Is it just a cheap racing seat with a cheap cover thrown over it or is there something I'm missing here because even the cheap seat options seem kind of pricey. Pick n pull. For real though, if/when I build a cockpit I'm gonna go try and pull a recaro out of something.

1. Custom PP filters. People have been sharing them on the official forums and I think there are a few on RaceDepartment, but they get involved real fast, with custom weather and colorcurve ini's. 2. Over/downsampling. Either rendering at a higher than monitor res and downscaling, or people stitching together multiple screenshots. 3. Setting the sun right. When I make a screenshot, 75% of my time is spent getting the sun position juuuuuust right for each shot. But overall it is much less visually impressive than pCars or even Shift 2, just because they didn't really invest their limited resources in the look pretty part.

Some people like using sweetfx but as far as I could tell when I messed around with it, other than forcing additional sharpening, it mainly leads to less dynamic range and garish colors.

These are straight out of AC (photo mode and stock PP's used, no post):  The countach model is great and sounds decent, but the physics are a long way from done, currently is on rails. The audi DTM is a blast, very tail-happy, one of the best sounding mods yet, too.

The FFB on the G27 is better than the DFGT, but not enough to warrant an upgrade unless you want clutch/h-shifter.

Welp, guess I'm buying DiRT Rally. I hate saying this because I still think it's an amazing driving sim, but I'm pretty disappointed with where Assetto is this far after release. Multiplayer (at least as a pub racer) is pretty much a nonstarter (0 servers use booking anymore, so no races), as even the free-drive servers are a crapshoot due to the fact that you don't see how many people are currently on a server, just how many have joined at one time. I've been enjoying driving by myself but most of where I want to drive are the hillclimbs and rally stages, and even lowering traction and adjusting car settings to try and mimic dirt/gravel/bad tarmac isn't really enough. Driving on loose dirt isn't like driving on ice. Not to mention how fragmented the mods are thanks to audio updates constantly breaking them. :-/

drat, wasn't able to finish in time to get on the board! My times were 11/12th through the 4th stage, so it's not like I missed out on any glory though. Weekly rallies? This game is great so far. I used these FFB settings: http://steamcommunity.com/app/310560/discussions/0/611704730331127090/ and am looking at modifying the cockpit camera to get a narrower fov/move up

Yeah, I can't really do more than a stage or two a night, just don't have enough of the sweet spot time between work and too late for a noisy wheel.

 98.2% of people play this game wrong.  e: ^^I am quite happy with the g27 in it, actually. See: http://www.racedepartment.com/threads/ffb-tweak-no-void.104688/ http://blog.codemasters.com/dirt/05/dirt-rally-road-book-130515/ quote:“We’ve got things feeling right as far as the Force Feedback is concerned but it has taken a complete rewrite to get us to this point. Next we are going to get it in the hands of some rally drivers to get their feedback (pardon the pun). We are also working on the in-game calibration, configuration and options screens to give you more control over how the wheel feels. 365 Nog Hogger fucked around with this message at 06:43 on May 17, 2015 |

MacGyvers_Mullet posted:I play with auto-clutch because I can't find a good way to keep my G27 pedals from sliding forwards on the carpet when I use brakes and the clutch at the same time. I prefer the cockpit view, but I'll probably go headcam and no hud when I get a consumer VR kit later this year/early next year. Auto-clutch doesn't count against that one (you can even get it with auto I think) only the assists (TC, STAB, ABS).

My first iRace was going well until I noticed a crash behind me, which I assumed was somehow my fault, and pulled over to let the rest of the field pass me. 15 more laps and one annoying slow bastard who wouldn't let me pass later, I checked the replay.

Engine sounds were missing and something about the handling feels off, not as nimble as I expected, maybe that's just from playing too much Dirt.
