Hmm very nice way of talking about a country. Very ignorant and unmature. So your that much beter then the rest ?.
I read your story, sade. But you have been here for 3 years now ?. And you didnt find away to get home ??. 3 years locked up with internet ?? Hmmm now who is dumb ??.
Secondly how can you tell people are dumb and it is dirty. We also seem to be going 50 years back here. You have been locked up for 3 years so I wonder how you can tell these things.
I did feel sorry for you in the beginning. But the way your putting things looks like a nice story. You dont find sympathy the way youre doing things now.
Back to topic.
hack, hmmmmm............... here we go again. Just after the speedhack was settled. Any news on how to get back in admin rights on server Dan ??

As zeugi has stated in 1 of the first posts. The XR generally needs more skills to drive properly. But when you move on your license you will need these skills to get further in your license progress. Nowadays with the restrictions tools its a bit easier getting used to high powered cars. Still youre in need of some RWD skills aswell.
Well as usual youre always impressed with new stuff but to answer your question I have had several wheel.
- Thrustmaster Ferrai force feedback
- Logitech MOMO force feedback
- Logitech Force EX
But I wished I could compare it to a G25.

Not sure yet to be honest. But it does give that real pressure a normal break pedal will give in a car.
Havent tested the shifter yet bcus the driver didnt install properly. What I did noticed a good resistance in using the H shifter and it gives good solid impression to me when falling into gear. Nothing linke the G25 where I have seen you can move it 1 finger without any resistance. You defitnly need your whole hand to shift it through the gears.

Oke after the first night mine thoughts. I have trouble getting the drivers to work and currently with T. Jackermeijer (ceo fanatec) to get them to work. The driver for some reason will interrupt during installation and doesnt finish th actual driver install. However some of the software is installed and I had a go at it.
It gives a clean layout where you setup the wheel. From 0-900 in steps of 1 degree. Also prefix degree settings on wheel throughout the LED display for a quick change possible. The FFB blew my mind. Its so unbelievable strong. I couldnt hold the wheel properly when tested the max settings. The vibration motors are a nice extra bonus to the FFB. When you press the accelarator the wheel starts to vibrate. It gives a extra feeling of driving the car.
Buttons on the wheel are more then enough. It feels solid no button that could be weared out in a year. But then again time will tell. Overall look. Wheel is covered with a high quality leather and is nicely stitched. The wheel itself is 300 mm and is big. Its just like sitting behind your steer of your car. The place where normally is your airbag looks on the picture very plastic. However its not !!!!!!. Its soft to touch, not shiny at all. Feels like a dashboard of newer cars. Soft and very touchable.
The noise of the wheel when turning is a bit weird. You expect to hear some noise but I never heard a quiter wheel as this. All due to the band wich gives the FFB off course. Which to me is a big plus. I have my setup in the living room and the misses hates my other wheel bcus of the noise while turning.
Pedals are looking a bit plastic however nothing like what you have seen on pictures. All pedals comes with prearranged pressure. The clutch feels very real due to the pressure. The break is like a real break and you must be getting used to it. My other wheel doesnt have the resistant in it and was just prssed down. This gives it way more feeling but needs to be getting used to. The accelator is also like a normal road car with a nice build in resistance.
I early said in this thread the pedals are useable with wire and without. Well its a kinda true. The connection to your PC is wireless. The connection wire between the wheel and pedals is just for power. I had no latency or lag issue so far. Even on a filled server i didnt experienced any lag. I was a bit affraid of that with a full starting grid with a FPS drop at start. But it didnt loose any connection what so ever.
Despite the driver issue I must admite to be pleasantly suprised. I really think it can give the G25 some good competion. I dont have a G25 so sadly I cant compare it with it.

Did you get the drivers installed ??. It keeps giving me a interupted installation after downloading the latest drivers. And the driver on the stick automatically conects to fanatec. 
Yup you can choose, wheter cable or wireless. But i wanted to see what its capable off. So hooked it up rather quickly and did some laps.
-edit- its wireless, the cable gives power from the wheel. But it still is wireles towards your PC.

Arrived.
First impression. Nice wheel. Leather high quality. A bit short on the lenght on the cable between wheel and pedals. Awesome look. Now setting up wheel for some first steering impressions.

Ahhh so that means the will arrive this week.
Good news, also they expand the testing period for a week. The 15th is coming up fast now. So a extra week is very good

Ohh 1 month thats nice. Certainly you have a advantage over using SLI. But it doesnt give the spectacular performance boost you wanna buy a SLI laptop. I use Vsync but its struggles on a full grid on line. Just until T1 after that its oke. But i have every eyecandy turned on. Thats just the profit I got from SLI and considering framerates it didnt do that much extra to me.
Well ist nice to have a dualcore/SLI laptop but it doesnt help the framerate in LFS any bit. Since LFS is written as a single thread the second core doesnt do anything. Also SLI doesnt help a bit. I run a dual core with SLI and both dont do anything to get some extra framerates. I do suggest a dualcore laptop as a invesment in the future. And several other programms that are supporting a dualcore but getting a SLI laptop for just LFS isnt worth it.
I doubt if they ever gonna change the threads programming in LFS bcus ist a lot of work. They propably have to start from scratch again.
ROFL now thats a setup. I like that. Although I think my wife would have some serious issues with me diggin a hole in the floor
Can you make a pic from the oher side off the PCB ?. I think you have a bad connection from component to PCB.
I was revering to the wheel not to the porsche interior.
-edit-
ROFL

Hmm..................... could that be because infact it is a toy ???
A big boys toy tho but it still is a toy. Lets wait when we get it and see some user reviews. No need to get flaming on something what hasnt been seen or used yet.
Still not in yet. Gonna be some late night session that I feel coming up. I due hope its worht the effort bcus time is running really short.
Looks good job well done. But the buttons on the left/right side and the bottom are more silver coloured. If you can change it would make it look more cool then it already is.
Here new email arrived from fanatec;
So I think there about to send them off now. Time is running rather sort now for some decent testing.

Hmm thats nice . You did that rather quick aswell 
. Maybe you can do the logitech G25 and that new Fanatec porsche wheel aswell ?
. You did that rather quick aswell . Maybe you can do the logitech G25 and that new Fanatec porsche wheel aswell ?Hmm can you pick any hardware that worked properly when it was tested ??. Thats why the call it a Beta Test. And drivers for a 64bit OS are always later then then 32bit OS.
Why you need to put things down while there isnt any review availble ?. I just dont get that. I consider it for all a good thing generally wheter ist good or bad. There finally another wheel to give to G25 some competetion. Wich is always good for the price of it, generally it will drop the price. Wheter its good or bad.
Well gongrats Dr and Shaggy. Nicely done you found a good home here. Very nice and friendly guys. 
zoom out of the car. Then you will see several camera`s, Klik 1 with right mouse klik it will turn pink. Now press F9 for camera options. Also you can use the triangle and ball icon to move around with camera. Remember the right side where car is showed is the view you will see. Just fiddle around a bit with these things and you get the hang off it.
You had to subscibe to a forum made by them 3 months ago
Reserved for some review. I will give it a go. Wanna see whats it capable off. Maybe even a vid. Just have to look for a good quality camera.
