So now that you folks have had some time...

Is the patch an actual improvement or just another change?

When are patch notes going up?

Are they adding more shadows for replays? Bitches love shadows.

I have lost all faith in iracing.

Iracing 0.2 is here folks.

I really just don't care for this at all. The cup car at watkins is worse than it was before.

Can someone tell me why it won't brake in a straight line? Like...its the iracing basic setup and I hit the brakes with no lockup and the car just darts all over the place.

The skippy is meh. It was more fun before.

I frequently get cars to do things I've never seen happen in real life. The way they behave is very strange at times.

Quote from PMD9409 :It is a good base, that's true. The main thing that gets me scratching my head is the sudden loss of grip just to turn around and have a massive over correction from sudden grip. Seems like the went too far in the other direction.

Are there many of us that just absolutely hates the NTM on the road courses? I really hope it drives better on a real road race car. My check book is hanging in the balance....I'll either be grabbing a year + the new cars and suzuka or letting my subscription lapse for the first time since pre release.

It should be obvious by listening, but its also PLAINLY STATED that it is not in game sound.

My WR lap at VIR Full http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0Kz15P1MCs

Man that thing is driving like a fork lift. I don't know how you can drive like that and be consistent.

I just missed gold by .2 on my first attempt of the AMG challenge with the old 300sl. 8 minutes 49 seconds and 2 tenths.

Why are there other cars driving around...? At one point one cut me off and hit the brakes after I ran into it.

The fixed setup on the RHD mazda is way too tight. I did some hosted session last week at mosport and really free'd the thing up. Now I feel like I can't turn

And? Sounds like you have succeeded lol.

Just fiddle with it until it is +/- a tenth.

Do the 3 months for $35 +F1. Jesus that is a good deal. The f1 and 2 tracks cost more than that on their own.

f1 at limerock is not very much fun.

We need more tracks. I can't wait for spa and suzuka

Some people have been complaining about the on board sound of the F1 car.

A while back I set my sample rate to 48000 as suggested by Grant Reeve I think. He said that it may give better sound, but could cause performance issues. It just uses a less compressed sound file. Think of mp3 bitrates, 128 vs 320 vs lossless.

I didn't notice a difference really, but I guess some people are claiming a huge difference in the f1 car (which I think sounds phenomenal). I have very good headphones and an amp fwiw.

Go to your app.ini file in your iracing folder and change the SampleRate to 48000.

The sounds are recorded at 96000, but most hardware does not play back at that samplerate.

Quote from DevilDare :Any resemblence to BF1?

Or would it be unfair to compare the two?

The FW31 is extremely approachable and "easy" to drive. Once you start pushing, you find that it is very difficult.

Straight line acceleration has very little wheel spin. The slow corners at Silverstone require some fancy pedal work, but once you get it mostly straight you can lay into it.

So basically I'm going to go with zero resemblance The bf1 without TC is anything but approachable.

Quote from ldriver :The new shadow system looks really cool, this next build will be a nice step forward again.
@arox for the combo summit point with the spec is always enjoyable in my opinion.

The graphics changes in general are phenomenal. The tracks look completely different (in a sextacular way)

Overall I don't think there will be too many sim changing updates this time. Dave's tire model is projected to be s1 or s2 2011 though, and it sounds really interesting.

He says that the tire model will essentially be complete in the software. All they will have to do is input the specs of the tire, like sizes and such, and the tire model will handle everything else. He claims it will get rid of all the fudging they have to do currently to get things to feel right.

Should be very interesting.

Anyone running a shift macro? Is it done in the profiler or with an outside program? I have a g25 btw.

The new transmission model has really hurt my desire to run iracing. I figure I might as well try a macro and see what the difference is.
