>>28506878
The region locking is fucking retarded though. I will say. Shame they still havent removed it.

>>28506923
Just get the region selector mod and change region to US as thats where everyone else is.

AC EVO Yay or Nay?

Help rFactor won't let me change series or track. I tried deleting CoreShaders.mas but it only works once. I also pried deleting the PLR file but to no avail. Can anyone please help?

>>28507155
Why?

Any good motorbike games?

How’s wreckfest 2 doing? Any new content?

I just wanted to play Forza Motorsport, I'm not upgrading from my gtx1080ti and i7 3770k, I'm not getting windows 10, fuck I just want to race 80s group c cars.

>>28507159
just buy one between 8 and generations its the same game, generations has broken inputs so I'd stay clear of that

Will I regret buying one of those chink rigs?
Price tags are very tempting

>>28507334
I got a chink knockoff of GT omega apex wheelstand for I think 40€ compared to 130€, but what I got was all banged up, almost as if made from damaged parts the original GT omega factory threw out. I had to do some bending and drilling to even get it assembled but for a third of a cost I can't complain too much

Bongbros…
Go there and try PMR, then report back

>>28506750

Never heard of PXN but if you want cheap best bet is Simsonn

Im out of the loop did they make all Solar Passes free because no one buys them or were they always supposed to be free.

for me its goated budget ps2 games that got shat on by gaming j*rnalists who simply couldn't understand the concept of simulation value

>>28507545
i remember one time the urban youths in my high school engineering class brought a ps2 to class near the end of the year with d1gp and txrd2 along with madden and a mortal kombat i think
naturally i just fucking shit on everybody and nobody wanted to play racing games against me. even my teacher was like "i'll beat you in d1" and i roflstomped him despite never having played the game before

>>28507559
and then the whole class got up and clapped

>>28507334
I have a similar to this one on pic related and I dont recommend, they look ugly and tbf it doesnt add that much to the experience, like if you buy those aluminum ones in the future it would be easy to upgrade it (my dream is to get a qs-bt1, which can only be installed on a aluminum frame I think), also my version similar to this one has metal sheets instead of those tubes that support the tv, and every time my wheel spikes up on the ffb or when I have to turn the wheel really fast, the tv shakes a lot side to side

>>28507563
clapped no but it was pretty hype since the black kids failed to beat him in madden

>>28507559
we brought psps to class and you could share demo versions of some games to another psp and play multiplayer together, I dabbed on everyone so hard in burnout legends and sega rally revo that they refused to play with me

anyone playing assetto corsa evo? i can't figure out if the physics is complete shit ( no weight, weird FWD ) or is it something related with me playing with controller

>>28508395
>weird FWD
what? it’s the most accurate FWD experience I’ve seen so far. only downside is torque steer has no ffb as of yet (or my T300 is too weak idk)

>>28507559
My 6th grade teacher brought his PS1 in when the band kids went to the water park for their summer concert. I was so jealous. Unfortunately, in my teacher's day, the only games the PS1 had were arcade ports.

>>28508432
to me it seems like the car is too light and it loses rear traction too fast. never drove a i30n tho...

Is Kaz at Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend? ovgers at Goodwood, go hunt him down and just point at things so he understands.

That’s the beauty of the i30N. it’s a true driver’s cars that keeps you on your toes.
there are supercar owners in krautland that frequently take their i30N for a spin on the burgerking

i am really so fucking sick of this video game/cultural dark age we've entered

>>28509159
reminder that the single greatest racing game ever made was completed in 8 months by a handful of bros from Sheffield who had to be threatened with loss of pizza if they didn't stop playing the game they were supposed to be making.

I am looking into getting into iRacing but the pricing of getting to compete in anything but miatas is tremendous.

Is it really worth it compared to any other sim?

How do you justify paying >100 bucks in subscriptions+cars+circuits to compete in 1 season of imaginary driving?

>>28509159
But we haven’t

>>28509254
It's easier to just hop on a race multiplayer compared to other sims for multiplayer. The FFB is decent enough with the MAIRA third party app, but you really have to devote yourself to iracing to get used to its quirky physics as nothing else really drives like it, and it's not very intuitive to drive.

I think the real shitty thing about iracing is to make the UI somewhat decent, you're gonna have to pay yet another subscription for some overlays. If you only plan on racing one or two series, the cost isn't a whole lot more up front if you just buy one car, which you should, as using a meta car for each week doesn't make sense unless you are an alien. Then the real cost would be the tracks and the sub fee. When it comes to tracks, only buy ones that have good participation (ex: spa, suzuka, daytona) and stay away from the ones you literally never heard of because people do not want to race on those tracks and I wish iracing would stop adding them and forcing them onto people.

Like a quarter of the IMSA races this season dont even take place on north american tracks, and instead they are putting stuff like MotorLand Aragón which sounds like someshit out of the lord of the rings. Of course it only barely had enough people registering for that race to compose of one split.

>change from a safe setup to a more aggressive one
>gain almost 2 seconds of time
what the sigma

>>28509254
if you just want to race conveniently at any time probably, if you want to race and enjoy pushing a car to the limit and extracting every ounce of performance from it probably no

>>28509391
now learn how to do your own setup based on your very own preferences and you’ll gain 2 more seconds

So wait is NFS actually kill or is EA being retarded again and just shifting around their staff to different projects? BF6 is already looking to be a massive flop.

>>28509571
Wanna bet they were planning a live service nfs?

>>28509571
it's dead

>>28509611
Honestly if it's just a temporary hiatus then I say go for it, NFS has been going through an identity crisis for the past 15 years and it's getting really tiring. EA has no idea what to do with the franchise but still feels the need to pump out a new game every other year or so and the result is always the same, a subpar title that gets poorly received or flies under the radar due to lack of support from both the fans and EA.

>>28509611
...wasnt unbound already live service

>>28509623
>NFS is dead
>BF is looking to have the same fate
Are we witnessing the beginning of the long awaited death of EA?

I’m tired of being poor.
I ran to drive a kino car irl.
And by kino car I mean a 992.1 GT3 RS

>>28509543
How is the drifting in GT7 compared to AC? I like TCL, DWG, SWARM and J-Side car packs, is GT7 anything like those?

>>28509659
Not much of a live service if it's dead, innit?

>>28509747
have yet to get a dance movie, I'm only like 20 minutes deep
it's clearly a low budget game but I gotta give it some props
I was not expecting it to have police and chases before most wanted did (granted they're shit)
also really like the little repairing animation, it's a neat little touch

>>28509672
i'm not really into drifting, but from what I heard it's harder to do in gt7 than in ac. you can setup any car you'd like though for drifting, and pretty much any sports car you can imagine is in that game. you wont have access to true drift tracks or touges, just regular circuits that might be decent for it like tsukuba, s curves at suzuka, fuji's 100r corner, etc..

drifting is unironically better in FM than GT, especially because of fujimi kaido

>>28509754
FM feels like shit with a wheel though

>>28509760
pick your poison

>>28509749
Yeah, without the touge tracks (or at the very least proper drift tracks) its not the same. Besides, the PS5 doesn't like my Moza setup, I've heard it plays like ass with a Ras1lution adapter (wonky FFB, unavoidable deadzone etc).

>>28509754
drifting in GT7 is borked

>>28509524
Found something interesting. Feels good drifting something different from an S chassi or a BMW.

>>28509866

>>28509918
Fun things are fun.

Project Modor Racing VILL save sim racing.

>>28510003
pcars 1 and 2 didn't so I doubt it, but it did give us AMS2

>>28510019
I actually never tried pcars. Why did it fail? Was it even a sim?

>>28510021
>Was it even a sim?
it tried to be, but my personal issue with it was that it didn't really feel great to drive and the ffb was lacking. a lot of people complain about the "floaty" feeling of the cars in the madness engine games, AMS2 included. I think AMS2 handles it nicely and fixes some of pcars1/2's problems, but it feels like a more realistic version of a sega arcade racer with how over the top the handling is. basically, GT3 cars have a tendency to just slide all the time when they should be planted, and you can just slide through each corner, a similar issue that FM has but the way it's executed in AMS2 feels amazing on a wheel. not really realistic though.

>>28509543

I’m too stupid to trail brake effectively. I’m either braking far too early or a bit too late.

Is there a sim where i can just setup a event and just spectate the race?

>>28510708
why would you do that

>>28510708

rf and nr2003 technically, you have to join the session to get it to progress but then you can just leave and watch the ai. rf1 and 2 have an option to have an ai control the player car at the press of a button.
rf2 has a cool feature where you can start a race from a replay.

maybe its the setup I'm using for the acura, I don't know. it just understeers like a pig. And if i use an aggressive setup to make it more oversteery, i lose so much stability. I can get the bmw to rotate into corners so much easier and it always responds to trail braking even when I'm driving like shit

>people begging for more government intervention and cohercion on the free market and individual liberties

Have you tried NOT supporting shitty companies yourself? Of course not, you lack any semblance of self-control, you have to CONSOOM and then be mad that the obvious thing happened anyway. Daddy government has to fix everything for you, right? Just ask for more laws to brute force your petty desires on irrelevant things. You know the real answer to things like good games being held hostage by shitty companies is piracy? This is exactly the situation where piracy is morally acceptable. Support some crack group or decomp-recomp project or something. There, problem solved.

>>28511394
>just control the actions of the millions of retarded masses bro

>>28511394
>Have you tried NOT supporting shitty companies yourself?
yes, i didn't buy the games
but instead of changing, the company just proceeded to double down and now wonders why the bottom just fell out of the video game industry after making nothing but shithouse fotm crapware for over a decade

also quite frankly the issue ultimately is piracy. people want to play a game long after it's stopped being supported, which means they want to distribute it themselves. this might not be a problem for quake or doom or half life but a game with licensed cars and music is another ball of wax entirely, because now they're distributing the intellectual property of the car manufacturers and musiicians and not compensating them for it. SHOULD those people get paid for this sort of thing? no, but currently, legally, yes. for skg to succeed they need to change copyright law so that the assets of the games don't need to be changed when the licenses for irl logos and likenesses expire. this is why you can't buy outrun 2006, why gt and forza games can't be rereleased, why forza content gets yoinked off xbla, etc.
we need to end copyright license rugpulling. if you sign a deal for your brand or whatever to appear in a game it should be forced to remain in perpetuity so long as appropriately credited.

Why is Goodwood using a shitty Assetto Corsa mod for their racing sim booths?

>>28511434
Every game should go the TXR route and use non copyright chassis codes.

>>28511405
I didn't say that. I said support crack-recomp-noDRM projects.

>>28511434
Yeah I agree the current copyright license laws are ridiculous, but since they won't change any time soon, the only viable, realistic solution (and not a perfect solution, but the best we have right now) is piracy, like it or not. I don't like it either. I would go out of my way to support a good developer studio, but sometimes that becomes impossible or, unfortunately, counter-productive for the state of the industry as a whole. No one pirates Valve games claiming they have abusive practices, right? But Ubishit games? You're morally obligated to pirate them.

>>28511462
>non copyright chassis codes.
>laugh in Honda

>>28511462
The new TXR appears to have licensed cars. I have no idea how they can make the game with real-world cars, manufacturers, and logos without licensing.

>>28511465
Piracy and legal grey zone areas like emulation, abandonware, mods and recompilation projects have done more for game preservation than any crying for commieshit solutions in the hopes of making corporations behave how some entitled manchildren want them to.

>>28511482
>mods

Maybe not preservation per se but it certainly affected the longevity vitality of many games. Who would still be playing AC, RBR and Trackmania today if mods were not a thing?

>>28511465
and then so they're morally obligated to make their games break down on purpose after a while and make pirating them useless because they won't work without online services. and then we're morally obligated to not buy those games because those features are anti-consumer and stupid. THEN the company actually starts losing money. we are here.
software piracy is unironically moral and just, but in my opinion if i don't like a game enough to buy it then it's not worth pirating, either. i pirate games as demos so when i have an opinion on a game i can say i did in fact play it, but let's not beat around the bush, the entire reason for games being designed that way is to curtail piracy. and it works. by tying even the simplest game into centralized servers you control who gets to play it and when. simply having barebones multiplayer with an account system is the best drm imaginable, because even the average skiddy pirate is not going to bother exposing their computer to fuck knows what trying to make all that shit work for free.

>>28511453

>>28512594
Really boils down to what you're looking for.
There are still ways to get decent online racing in other games, but iRacing does have the edge when it comes to how easy it is to simply hop into a ranked race for your skill level in a good variety of cars.
So it depends on how you feel about iRacing's handling, because personally I feel like you have to spend way more time on a new car/track combo in iRacing to get close to the limit compared to the other games/sims that I've played.
Occasionally going past the limit in other games just results in a micro-correction or caught slide depending on how far past the limit you go, but in iRacing it's almost a guaranteed spin. This makes it much harder to dance on the limit of the grip, and at least for me personally, resulted in me just underdriving the car most of the time.
TL;DR iRacing service good (albeit expensive), handling not so good. Buy it if really want online racing available at almost any hour, and you can tolerate the physics.

you can start by telling my why „coaches“ on YouTube tell me to not brake 100% ever, but more like 75%.
But when I watch actual track records the drivers pretty much always go 100% on the brakes and trail brake just a bit instead of braking super deep into the corner

>>28513538
oh yeah, that also means they are indeed turning the wheel while fully depressing the brake.
Something the „coaches“ told me not to do

>>28513538
if they are physically going 100% on the brakes they might have setup the car to have less brake pressure overall for better consistency

>>28512690
cru fog and clouds were unreal
beats msfs20 desu

>>28513572
truly one of the games of all time

>>28513583
its weird because the game has so much jank but i feel like people will forget that its genuinely like top 3 racers of the 2010s
an artful shitpost of a game

>>28513572

i miss it

>the road down off the colorado plateau to vegas where you can easily hit 300+

>>28513544
No, the brake bar shows 100% brake force

>>28513677
does the brake bar show how far the pedal is depressed or the kpa of hydraulic force

The Yosemite area in cru1 and 2 is still one of my favorite vidya locations desu

>>28513735
in cru 1 when it was perma snow and slippery was peak
i had some guys accuse me of using a wheel because i wasnt eating shit every corner

>>28512997
Fine I’ll download it.
It’s been years since I last played it

>>28513677
exactly, they probably set the brake pressure in the setup to be lower than 100% so they can use the full pedal range, i do this all the time

>>28513538
The onboard telemetry that you see for most IRL onboard videos is not very accurate. Modern F1 for instance has shown it as almost an on/off switch until literally the previous race at Silverstone.
So not only is it usually a bit out of sync, but unlike in sims where the brake bar = brake pressure, IRL you have no idea how their brake is set up.
James Baldwin (does IRL GT3 racing) talks a bit about this. https://youtu.be/6G8k0nKq-Ws

>75% instead of 100%
Are you watching iRacing videos perchance? Every sim handles braking differently, in AC and especially ACC, the ideal way to brake is to hold the brakes at a high pressure for a relatively long time while trusting the ABS to do most of the work for you.
In iRacing, doing that is slower in cars with ABS, and touching 100% brake pressure in a car WITHOUT ABS is almost a guaranteed lock-up unless you only very momentarily touch 100% initially in a car with high downforce. (More downforce = more grip = can brake harder)
Turning the wheel while fully depressing the brake will simply lead into a lock-up (or the ABS engaging constantly trying to save your life, leading into unpredictable rotation and/or understeer depending if you're racing in ACC or iRacing). If you have doubts regarding being fully on the brakes whilst turning, then the easiest way to prove/disprove it is to simply try it out yourself. Go into your sim of choice, slap on Spa, and proceed to brake at 100% pressure while turning into every corner. If your brakes don't lock up, you'll be whipping the car around and into a barrier.
The YouTube coaches aren't lying to you, it just doesn't make sense to you yet, and it's wise to consult IRL videos to see how the pros do it, but without knowing the context behind them and the theory behind trailbraking, it all becomes a bit confusing instead.
Sorry for the long explanation.

>>28513895
Why the fuck did they make plens and botes worse
Why the fuck did they remove jetsprint

>>28513934
yeah I was watching an iRacing coach.
But my sim of choice is ACC, so that checks out with what you said

>>28513986
Ah I see, yeah that does make sense then. I'm not very good at ACC (for reference, my quali time in ACC at Spa is a 2:16.7 with the 296), but in my time racing in ACC, I could tell that it was very sensitive to proper trailbraking technique. I used to drop off my brakes somewhat abruptly at the end (I'd trailbrake to about 10% pressure and then release, which lead to understeer from the fronts popping back up), but now I'm much smoother with my braking thanks to ACC.

>>28514059
>(for reference, my quali time in ACC at Spa is a 2:16.7 with the 296)
In what world is that not an incredible time?

>>28514063
I'm aware that it's a decent time, but because I've seen aliens do 2:14, and even a sub 2:14, it doesn't feel quite as good.
I'm within the 101% - 102% range, yeah, but it's still a way off of the top times.
It feels extra bad when you feel like you're already reaching your limit but then you search for a benchmark and it's miles away somehow.
If you feel that it's a good time though, then I'm glad, because hopefully it lends some credence to what I'm saying.

>>28514079
2:16 is good enough for top split in irenting so i'd say that's a good time

I can barely do 1:20 lol

>>28514105
Yeah but iRenting is iRenting and ACC is ACC. I'm significantly slower in iRacing because it feels much harder to approach the limit without binning it. For instance, I have a 2.15.5 in base AC because it's less sensitive to trailbraking and it's generally easier to take Eau Rouge and Stavelot flat-out while you really have to get it just right in ACC.

>A third car has been confirmed for Assetto Corsa EVO’s much vaunted 0.3 update – the BMW M3 (E30).

>>28514229
What about something between bias-ply trash tires and modern supercar tires?

>>28514299
road tires are fine.
but 0.3 includes the tire model update

>>28514229
>E30
It's good but I'd like to see the spotlight on some other cool BMWs, like a Z8

>>28511506
If no one bothers to crack a game free of its DRM for posterity, is it even worth it fussing about the legal stuff? I mean, sorry to say but most games are mediocre and deserve to fall into obscurity. ''Preservation'' can easily turn into an obsession of collecting trash. I believe that, in most cases, what is worth being preserved will be preserved somehow. Nature...finds a way. I'm upgrading my PC specifically for emulation. Driveclub is almost playable on 60 fps on Shadps4, GT6 still has some visual glitches on RPCS3 but you never know when some breakthough might come, and GT5 is already perfectly playable.

>>28511574
they still did it best though
modern games have awful fake sounding names, nightrunners comes to mind
a better alternative would be to give all the cars pseudonym names
im not actually sure if any of thats legal at all to begin with though since i think car companies can pitch a fit if you copy the design of their car, maybe if its low-detail enough to have different proportions you could get away with it

They're adding Hondas soon right?

>>28511354
>General Motors and Volkswagen are totally based and cool and on my side, though!
this is what happens when you make hating rich people a political ideology.

So, Ridge Racer 6 was a launch title for the xbox 360, and an exclusive. Ridge Racer 7 launched one year later as a PS3 exclusive launch title. That's odd, I don't think anything like that has ever happened since or ever again...

>>28515873
isnt 7 also just an upgraded 6?

>>28515879
I'm watching the DF Retro videos on the series and you're right, RR7 is a quasi remaster of RR6, with different aesthetics and new content. Can't wait to emulate it.

I’m downloading beamNG.drive this very minute.
Any mods or settings I should know about?

>>28515873
3rd parties never had loyalty and launch titles are a means to a paycheck

>>28516027
Yeah, download iRacing instead.

can we get a wellness check on dave kaemmer hes officially lost it

>>28516027
the game is super customizable so just look through the settings on your own and see if theres anything you want to change. im a controllercuck so idk if you need to turn on ffb manually if you have a wheel, but thats how it was for me to get controller vibration
as for mods, heres my recommendations:
>beamMP (only actual essential one)
>KLJP
>hirochi talent (rebadged subaru sambar truck)
>hirochi CCF (restyled nd miata)
>ibishu claria
>90s etk k-series (slightly restyled bmw z3)
>capsule bus
>gavril vertex (rebadged ford focus, never used it myself but its one of the most popular beamng mods ever, has a shitton of weird configs like a plane)
>etk 900-series
>gavril huntsman
>TAZ pack (2 lada inspired soviet shitboxes, surprisingly high quality for what it is)
>blackpool superlite (rebadged lotus seven)
>procyon centauri (this ones a bit outdated)
if you dont like fictional stuff theres also plenty of real cars on the forums & 3rd party sites, oldfullsize is the only really high quality (free) one i can remember right now, its getting a remaster to bring it up to par with the modern versions of beam
theres not very many "dev quality" maps that i can remember off the top of my head like there are with cars, but i like the SRP map on the forums, polish roads is also a really popular & high quality one, theres also plenty of uploads of real world tracks like the burgerking on the forums
im probably forgetting a lot here but thats what i can remember off the top of my head. someone else probably knows more about this than i do

>>28516151
can I drive rally in that game

thoughts on the fictional/what-if Taisan livery I've done for the Chemflummi Viper GT3-R in AC?

>>28516360
You can rally in iRacing dumbass

Oh all of the new racing games suck? Time to go back to playing the same 5 Codemasters games from 15 years ago

Is Toca 3 pro-sim the better option if I am looking for something close to GT4? Or is it only good for wheelfags?

>>28510613
Rather see Genki finish this game and work on a new Kaido Battle/TXR Drift.
Itd probably take forever to come out because they laser scanned the courses in the old games and havent had a re-scan for them since, unlike the Shutoku Expressway which they have remastered a bunch through the years.

>>28517369
Dirt 2, Dirt 3, Dirt Rally 2.0, GRID, CMR 2.0?

What's a good game if I just want to cruise around with a wheel and relax?
Really wish there was something akin to Truck Sim but without the truck.

I play TOCA 3 with a controller, and the thing I hate about that game is how ridiculously large the deadzone is. Even if you set it to 0, the deadzone is still quite big instead of actually being zero

>>28518143
Do you use pro-sim? I had difficulties with steering but locking FPS helped

>>28518349
Nope

>>28517731
american truck simulator is getting cars soon(tm), it's officially in the works, but no info on the release date yet

in my whole life i will not witness any event greater on this earth than the day this game runs on a modern pc without emulation

>>28506684 (OP)
How has this TXR update manage to sneak by me for so long

>>28518371
I've been having fun with the steam achievements the past few days. Forgot how much I liked it.

>>28518371
Speaking of updates I just saw that they dropped 0.13.1 and it fixed the main issue for me that was the completely fucked HUD elements from 0.13.0

>>28518371
I can never decide if I want to play it now or wait for more updates.

>>28518371
Because it just came out

>>28518371
If this game had a map with more twists and turns instead of just copy-pasting the real layout of shutoko it could have been one of the greatest racing games ever made.

>>28518513

shut up, retard

>>28518513
the appeal of the series is that its an immersive setting with real roads and hundreds of unique characters

>>28518535
>non sequitur
buddy that is literally a screenshot from the game

>>28518513
Honestly I think it just needs more roads. I want to keep the real-world location and layout, but I'd like to extend out and have some seaside driving or mountain roads.

>>28518701
Basically I want to cross the big bridge from Kawasaki and go into Chiba.

>>28518545
Sure, fair enough, but my point is that TXR isn't really a racing game, its an RPG with a racing game shell aesthetics. You're not challenged by a detailed, realistic physics engine, or by technical tracks, or even by strategic decision making. All you do is grind, upgrade your car, defeat faster oponents, grind some more, watch some weebshit animu dialog, upgrade, repeat. You could take away or automate the actual ''gameplay'' and not much would change, the only real input you have as a player is choosing your cars, upgrade paths, tunning and sequence of adversaries to defeat. I that's your thing, fine, but its not what I look for in a racing game.

>>28517414
Toca was relrased for PS2 and the big black american box
It should work with a controller with no kssues

>>28518513
Stick to the C1 then NIGGA

>>28509866
Huh... always wondered what the light trails would look like. Never enabled it. Kinda ass, also use Kirby chase cam like everyone else for replays, that's a bit awful to look at.
>>28509918
That is not a bad car mod. There is tremendously worse out there.

You're shit at highway racing then, I get it.

closer

>>28518711
if your car is capable of more than 120mph the shutoko is pretty difficult. fast + narrow + unpredictable traffic. the Wangan specifically is piss easy but the rest of the roads are deceptively simple.

>>28518701
They could (and probably will at some point if the game keeps a player base) add the roads the older games had like Yaesu, Haneda, Shinkanjo, and Wangan routes.

gentlemen, I do believe we officially have a viable software rendering engine

>>28519290
fuckin based

We're locked in this Trueno playthrough now bois

does someone still plays R3E? I've bought earlier this year dtm 2015 and the european track pack but I dont really play much, but if there is a considerable player base maybe I should spend more time on it
