Yeah pole position on the atari was my first racer, but I'd say vette was the first "sim" I played since you could spin out and also gravity and real streets

Is scemobilista going to have oval racing? Seems like a lot of right turns there.

How is beam ng drive? I got a newly built pc and want something current to play but for true "racing" I'll stick to iracing and probably automopimpbolista Beam ng drive seems like kind of a chill open world driver with cool physics .. is this correct?

DarthJeebus posted:I went and got me a used DFGT today, but I'm noticing the steering is super stiff. It's like I'm fighting really hard against the gears and any sudden corrective movements requires so much effort that it nearly rips it from my desk. This can't be normal right? I turned the centering spring down to 0 in the profiler but beyond that I can't figure out how to loosen it up. (BTW playing pcars) Since you are new to ffb do a search for "driving force gt settings [game]" it will help establish a good ffb baseline

How autopimpbaliata game ahem sim handle 3 monitors do I need to do Nvidia surround or just fire it up and say 3 please

CaseFace McGee posted:Stock Car Extreme handles Surround triples fine, so Pimpballista should do that fine. You should use surround because it's awesome. I only turn off surround when I am doing single monitor recording. Here's my issue with surround.. I normally use my pc with 2 monitors, also Nvidia hates me and even though all monitos I can do 1600x900 x3 it limits me to somethingx768. My ghetto 3 screen will get upgraded to 3 similar screens at some point but right now I have an hp that can only do x900 and 2 others that can do 1080

So Microsoft is doing the reverse steam link/ steam console.

xzzy posted:Except it's already inferior to Steam because it's not a PC providing a console experience, it's a console experience being enforced on the PC. Like I said earlier.. no mods, limited configurability, and feature limited to the baseline spec of the xbox one. Nowhere did I say it was a good idea.

Eyud posted:I still like to chill and race with a controller sometimes. Maybe when I have a dedicated cockpit I can just jump into it'll be different but I think they'll end up adding wheel support to Forza Apex at some point too. On this line.. how unforgiving is automobiliata, I'm thinking of grabbing a steam link and do some 720(probably not going to get to 1080 on wifi) and would love play some stadium trucks or dirt racing with a 360 controller. Should I just get ac instead?

What is the choice for intermediate wheels? Belt drive is better than gear right? It seems like the market of 250 medium quality wheels is gone, the g27 or csr elite was going to be my next upgrade to my game and both are either not avaliable or price gouging.

T300 or TX ferrari 458 edition? Both are the same price and look similar No clue how I'd mount either on my big boy wheel stand so now I'd need to grab one of those too.. budgets are for jerks.

T300 comes with metal backed wheel, TX has plastic with Moar buttans. Both are 300 on amazon and have pedals that look like they suck worse than my dfgt pedals.

Besides pedals what's the difference between t300 and 500?

# ¿ Mar 11, 2016 16:30 |

Price of 300rs with real pedals is going to be 400-450. 500 comes with good pedals and can be had used for 450 or new for 500

What's the to recommendation for racing game for couch and Controller. I was using nfs shift but 1 I can't drift and 2 it ate my save after like 8hrs of game play so lost the will to play

I'm not opposed to making the controller not garbage, I have automobolista and even carts are hard as hell with an XB360 controller. What are the general things to tweak.. I have grid1 which is kind of fun, I looked into autosport but some of the reviews said you need to grind a lot to get stuff.. Also I love how the sale has all the DLC for around $15 but the season pass is $29, and the complete pack is $70
|
# ¿ Mar 12, 2016 04:46 |

then grid it is.. I already have 10 sims that require me to do setups, I want games.. that I can fire up on steam link and sit on my cough and get fat drinking beer and racing.

Did you try re-defining the controller.. some games sees it as a totally new input.

The eutechnix games are bad 14 was buggy and had major issues and 15 is reskinned 14. It may be okay if you want a turn left with a controller experience, but I'd you want decent simulation you'll need to wait for 16 I think 16 ia the new (old good eutechnix staff) studios attempt at nascar.

I confirm performance is odd.. I can triple screen iracing with medium settings, I had to go to low to single monitor this on one screen with my work (not very intensive) client was on teh other 2. Overall it's an arcadey racer that will be okay for couch settings or those who desire a career mode, From what I've played so far it's very much like grid autosport with the added ability to unlock cars as you progress. they need desperately to work on optimization, I doubt I can steam box this to my TV at 1080p Also on medium settings I can't go above 720P. In summary It's basically Microsoft presents Grid Autosport, but with no wheel support and worse performance, and microtransactions.
