SimRacing General: successor to Forza/Gran Turismo/Racing thread - Games

[url]http://www.needforspeed.com/customization/[/url] We got more cars, from Porsche 993 to EK9 Civic They also got the 1st-gen NSX-R, Trueno and Murcielago SV

new NFS finally brings back the decal editor it's already sold to me as far as I'm concerned

Like whenever you see a game that has RUF cars it always implies 'we're poor lol'.

I quite enjoyed the NFS Shift games. They had a strong selection of cars. Tracks were good too

[QUOTE=Spectre1406;48862968]I'm more concerned with shitty RNG, where there are 2 cards I want and I ended up getting the odd one out.[/QUOTE] That too, it seems like when there's two that I want I always get the odd one out, but when there's only one of what I want I seem to get it more often than not. [editline]9th October 2015[/editline] On that note, I really hope the RNG card draws from Most Wanted don't make a return in the new NFS.

Just got my wheel in the mail! Excited for iRacing tonight. It's improved my driving performance ten-fold! [thumb]https://i.imgur.com/WAyqvHy.jpg[/thumb]

the plot thicken [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/wktho63t1ufx570/Screenshot_2015-10-10-08-01-06.png[/t] Also finally got R32 Skyline, this is the best of its class, also confirming that there's Nismo bodykit here.

So I got Forza A little annoyed at how it handles unlocking stuff. Decided I was done for the night when I unlocked my first Exhibition race.Mind you I was in the middle of a series and would have much rather finished it than the game forcing me out and trying to force me to play an exhibition race with absolutely no option to opt out other than closing the game and reopening it to get back to the main menu.

what are the mazda cup or srf races like for gaining irating? i want to get 1000-1500 or so to get out of the bottom splits but i lose more than i gain in c class oval events because people in trucks are idiots and indy is so easy to disable i dont get why people bitch about sR i always get enough for promotion in a week and i guess you wouldnt lose so much in a higher split because all the dirty cunts are in the bottom splits

I started PCars up to prove to somebody that when the wheel stops being recognized it's not my wheel, but for whatever reason the bug didn't happen today. Instead I ended up doing a couple races online in a server with the touring car classic category, which was neat because its rare you get to race anything other than GT3. It was pretty fun. First race was on Bathurst, second on Monza. The Mercedes drives like a boat, but it's very fast in a straight line. The Ford is tiny and nimble (for this class of car anyway) but can't hope to keep up in the straights. It's an interesting dynamic on tracks that aren't Monza.

They should just rename Project Cars to Monza GT3 BECAUSE THATS ALL THAT ANYONE PLAYS. HOW DO PEOPLE NOT GET BORED OF THE SAME CARS AND TRACK??? [editline]11th October 2015[/editline] They should at least merge group GT3 and GT4 for online play and have it as a multi-class race with two podiums, so that GT4 can get some loving because it's just so much more fun compared to GT3.

Be careful when doing the last race for Snoop Dogg event, once that event finishes, you're not going back so hoard all the mods and finish your tuning. Also, the car can't be customized.

So yesterday, i bought Nascar Racing 2003 Season on a CEX. Patched in, made a custom skin, did a short race and installed the Gen6 2015 series. It's great. It's a shame that it has it's limitations (such as running on a single core) [img]http://i.imgur.com/944padm.png[/img] Of course, i used a controller.

Game appears to have problems on W8.1 anyway. Oh well.

Argh, I'm so fucking bad at the long stages, I always drop the ball in the last bit Oh well, better luck next time

I've had just jack-shit luck trying to get it working on my rig.

2 flats and an annihilated radiator later, my poor scubaru limped it's way to the finish.

Assetto Corsa netcode strikes again. This is getting ridiculous. [video=youtube;NjXoPubR-Zk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjXoPubR-Zk[/video]

Have I whinged about Project Cars enough? I don't think I have. I really don't like the weather forecast system in the game. It can only forecast the next weather event but it doesn't say [i]when[/i] it will change over, or what the weather will be after it. Like in a race at Spa I pitted in for the mandatory pit stop and I checked the forecast, which said foggy for current and forecast. So I had soft slicks put on the car, thinking that was that. Halfway through the lap immediately after, it starts pissing down really hard and I'm on fucking slicks. Good thing I can control the car in the rain, but I had to sacrifice third place to come forth.

[QUOTE=venom;48851095]Assetto Corsa has that option too, it's super nice to have. You can disable the wheel but have the arms enabled and it's pretty hilarious Still such a meh game though[/QUOTE] I know I'm a couple days and a page late here but it very recently got updated with a new physics model and the cars feel more natural/predictable now. Could be the step in the direction a lot of people have been wanting.

I guess Dirt's league events use career's car upgrades, because my Focus went annoyingly slow. I finished the rally only with two major mistakes that didn't cost too much but still lose one minute, damn.

Bought Assetto Corsa recently and enjoying it, wish I could also get online but I'm fine with hotlapping or driving stocks at outskrits. But the question is, should we make a hotlapping spreadsheet for AC? It might be more popular than GT6 one, which is [B]ded[/B].

Sounds good to me; dunno how many people have/play AC though.

Have you tried Joux Plane for AC? [url]http://www.kegetys.fi/joux-plane-v1-5-update-for-assetto-corsa/[/url] It'd be fun to do a hotlap on that with the E30 M3 or something.

This could have been painful :v: [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Nm_WKG60pU[/media] [editline]12th October 2015[/editline] I wish there was more options for the notes, because "normal" is too soon for me, "earlier" is too early for me

[URL="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1V9rfsiWm4xacFPp2WD8U6Kj-WQ5DJhzWxbNu0wted4o/edit"]Here's the hotlapping spreadsheet for AC[/URL] Post if you think something has to be changed (mostly track settings), also sorry for posting that GT40 time on ring which basically requires you to buy both DLCs :v: [editline]13th October 2015[/editline] ouch, I fixed editing permissions, you don't have to ask for it now.

No limits wiped my save data i think. I had just gotten the M3 and RX7 too. Whenever I launch it it puts me in the intro race. :( Also 3 weeks till the new one!

Mw2012's pretty good, in terms of graphics, but I don't like most of the car's handling, feels like driving a truck.
