GutBomb, or anyone else with a TX wheel... do we have to update the firmware to be compatible with this game? My PC needs a new PSU and MB and I'm not sure when I'll get around to fixing it, so I can't do anything windows-related.

Yeah it was nice effect and I think hydro planing is going to make races that much more interesting. I'll be on around 5 eastern tomorrow as well for a couple hours before the game, so I'll be down for some racing.

So for the TX, I updated the firmware to 49.b whatever that was released in June and still the game just does not recognize the wheel. FH2 and F5 are just fine

deep impact on vhs posted:is anyone else having issues with wheels? my thrustmaster tx is working in fm5 but not fm6, wondering if wheel support is coming later or if mine just isn't supported Restart Xbox via the wheel and sign out / in with the wheel as your controller, don't use the gamepad. Still some bugs - goto Options -> Layout and if you want layout 1, select layout 2 then re-select layout one. Also in Multi-player, Right shifter shifts up properly, but also gives you a flash of the rearview

Partial Octopus posted:I want to play this game but I don't want to spend $1000 on a fanatec wheel. How are the thrustmaster and madcatz wheels? I'd just mirror what GutBomb said, but the TX is great (even if a bit buggy at the moment - with forza not the wheel. See my post at the top of the page). My biggest challenge with it at the moment is that I use it while sitting in rocking recliner at the moment so it makes for some awkwardness to get over. Also the multiplayer bug sucks and may have to switch layouts and not use the paddles until the bug is fixed.

MattD1zzl3 posted:I play forza and not iracin because it's the best mix of sim racing and controller support. A wheel will improve your forza experience, but I don't think you need one at all I don't think you need a wheel either. I bought one because of certain circumstances and I had a bit of extra money to spend. I don't regret it at all. It is a lot of fun to use. GutBomb posted:Also with noting is that I'm not experiencing any bugs. I had one issue, but I think it's because I was messing with the menus with a controller and it made the button mapping and the pedals all hosed up once I got into a race. I restarted the game and didn't have another problem. I'm glad you haven't. And usually restarting at least the mode you're in might fix it - for instance, I just went from Rivals to Career and the bug showed itself. I restarted Forza and it was fine after that. I haven't rechecked Multiplayer maybe there will be goons playin tomorrow afternoon. I want to do one of those endurance showcases as well.

SLICK GOKU BABY posted:Sunset Peninsula was fun but I do actually enjoy the Daytona courses. The whole first lap is a little chaotic in the hoppers with how narrow the road course section is, but it's pretty fun to drive. I had a Rivals today against some pubbie who apparently did a complete 720 going around turn one of Road Atlanta. I stayed in that rivals race just to watch him repeatedly spin out.

Powershift posted:The economy in the game seems a lot more fair. Even without VIP, you can win a race, and buy a car, or buy 3 upgrades for your car. Just playing career mode for a few days and now the showcase endurance events, I have bought 3 cars needed for career and my garage already has about 20 others from the level spins. I'm sitting on ~8million and now can look for interesting cars to mod and paint and for free getting the F1 Lotus, Ferrari 250gt, etc. I think Turn 10 learned a bit from FH2 and brought some bits over from that game. And of course there are people on the Forza forums complaining about the spins and getting free credits or cars (you don't have to take the spin!). Some people are the worst. And because I'm a masochist, I just did the Atlanta 100. That's 3 endurance races in one day. L_Harrison posted:I think I found a new car for Goon racing: Whoa whoa whoa.

Comrade Flynn posted:Err, can you only use the rewind a certain number of times in a race? Halfway through an enduro and it stopped working. It's really broken. As the race goes on, it gets worse. 1) At first it's normal. 2) Then it doesn't "rewind" it just screen blanks and puts you back at a point. Then one of two (or both) things happen 3) You've rewinded and you're at a different camera view / angle 4) You've rewinded nearly 3/4s of a lap (this happened to be at Road Atlanta 100) Or 5) Rewind is not available at some points but returns if you make another error. 6) Rewind puts your literally 1 second before your error.

Just played online tonight for the first time with pubbies (that includes FM5, FH2, etc). Holy poo poo what an amazing experience. I just find it drat impressive that they spin out on a loving straight. I couldn't even be mad at the pubbie who spun out and right across screen in to me.Asnorban posted:Is there an easy way to tell if goons are racing or join in on them? On Forza 4 we had the metatag, but I don't know how to quickly check if there are races happening now. So eager to take last place. I just check my friends list. It tells you what they are doing in-game. I don't know this or not if there is an easy way to see who is in a party. On PS4 goons would always be in a party unless taunting pubbies and other goons would freely join it. I may start doing that now if I see others on and invite them to the party.

"What the gently caress rear end in a top hat you brought a truck to Yas Corkscrew?" They started by giving me a wide berth.  Then not so much.  I was the only one with a clean lap  But as expected DNF'd  Unfortunately, the next race in which me and another pubbie both had vans and did barrel rolls through the first turn clusterfuck did not save properly

I came across this series while looking for tuning help to set up my cars for GRC. I found them helpful and they are easier to understand than T10's in-game textual explanations. FM6 is actually easier since you can watch Telemetry during replays so you're not distracting yourself trying to watch the numbers as you drive. Alignment - Camber, Castor and Toe Springs Anti-Roll Bars Damping - Rebound and Bump

robotsinmyhead posted:I've been using this setup I cribbed off the Forza Forums (maybe linked here?) either way: After using the 3-minute tune for most of FH2 and the last couple of weeks, I think the spring settings are the only good baseline settings in that tune and I became lazy about it and realized I didn't know exactly why things should be set properly. So most of the last few days has been studying more and experimenting and I, so far, am liking the results.

robotsinmyhead posted:That was kind of my go-to in FH2, I think these camber settings are too extreme like you said, and I don't know much about the effects of Toe on a small scale. Brakes definitely 47-48/85% for me (it seems dumb to be locking the brakes at 1/4 of the trigger pull) I'm using a wheel so I like to set it higher, maybe 130-150% so I don't feel like I'm slamming the brake pedal.

SLICK GOKU BABY posted:The limo is fun to drive as long as its not facing a sharp corner... Long Beach in the limo was a real struggle. You can hilariously turn block people though if you get the inside. Yeah I ran the limo and upped it to S-class for a few online races just now for some fun without really tuning it and took out about 4 other players on the first turn of Catalunya. On another note: I tried the forzatune 6 app - I wish I didn't waste $2 on it, not even worth it as a base tune, IMO.
