It's interesting sometimes dealing with the blinking and jumping cars in iRacing.

 

๐Ÿ Excited to unveil the ultimate racing experience on a budget! ๐ŸŽ๏ธ๐ŸŽ‰ Just unboxed the world's cheapest direct-drive sim racing wheel and it's a game-changer!

Watch my latest video to see the unboxing ๐Ÿš€ Get ready for unparalleled precision and immersion without breaking the bank!

 

hey all, I've been using the Buttkicker Gamer Plus for a few weeks, and I must say it's honestly been a great addition to my sim racing setup.

For those who may not be familiar with it, this device allows users to physically feel sensations through vibrations. The Buttkicker Haptic System can replicate sensations like engine vibrations, tire slip, the texture of the road, and gear shifts, elevating the virtual driving experience to a whole new level of realism and engagement.

A more in-depth review, with pictures, here!

TLDR!

  • Provides feedback where it is essential (tire slip, etc)
  • Performance Boost: Improves driving skills and lap times(I find myself at a negative delta when its turned off, eventually I get back to pace)
  • Considerations: It makes noise, so depending on living situations, it is something to consider. There are cheaper DIY options, but this is a complete no thinking solution.
  • Easy Setup: Quick and straightforward installation.
  • Customization: Fine-tune settings for personal preference, you can do this via iRacing directly or with buttkicker-provided software.
  • Optimal Feedback: with the controller, you can quickly turn it up and down which is nice
  • Verdict: Highly recommended for affordable immersion in sim racing.

No issues, great quality videos.

That fact that it seamlessly blends with my car's interior. Here is some info about it.

No need to worry about Polestar 2 lacking a built-in dash cam; FitCamX has me covered with an easy, 10-minute installation.

What's in the Box:

- Dash Cam

- Pre-installed 64GB micro-SD Card

- USB SD Card Reader

- Plastic Pry Tool

- Power cable

- User Manual

Key Features:

- Discreet design around my rearview mirror.

- 8MP CMOS sensor for clear 4K video at 30fps.

- 170-degree field of vision.

- G-Sensor & Lock for collision footage protection.

- Loop Recording (supports up to 128GB SD cards).

- Access footage via the FitCamX app.

I'm loving the hassle-free installation and superb video quality day and night.

If you want to check out the full review with the install guide and video sample, be sure to check it out.

 

hey all, I have seen a couple of comments discussing foldable simracing rigs. I've had the chance to get my hands on the Next Level Racing GT-Lite Foldable Simracing Rig, so I wanted to share some insights.

If you want to dive deeper into this, check out a more detailed review with more pictures right here!

tldr:

  • Assembly: Putting it together is a breeze, and it's versatile enough to work with various setups.

  • Adjustments: You've got some flexibility in customizing your wheel and pedal positions, but the backrest angle is set in stone.

  • Comfort: It's pretty convenient, but it does make a few comfort sacrifices in the name of portability.

  • Space Savings: If you're tight on space, this rig is a godsend. It folds up neatly for effortless storage.

  • Conclusion: Looking for a robust and portable solution to bring realism to your sim racing adventures in a cramped space? This seems like a solid solution.

This is the way

Divinity original sin 2 id assume. Great game as well by Larian.

Does it though? Not seeing anything about it

[โ€“] Elegast 1 points 2 years ago

Good luck with it! Definitely have to tweak it a bit for others around you, but I think it's manageable enough. Once you find a good place to mount it you should be good. Cheers!

Yep...that entire situation is so crappy. The devs deserved better.

[โ€“] Elegast 6 points 2 years ago

Yep. I didn't choose to have rgb in my current build, but it's also very simple to turn them off. Whereas 15 years ago I remember pulling the blindingly bright blue LED from the chassis fans just to be able to have my room dark. Lol

I wish sync worked like connect did with hide read.

You can have show read checked but mark read and hide read in connect and it'll still hide on refresh and you can still view your own posts when you go to your profile. Since doesn't seem to work that way.

Another reason to like Larian. Plus they even called them out which is neat imo.
