Ah thanks, didn't see those. Just had a quick look about Smile

Another quick Q. Checking a youtube video I see a user turn left from his pit box then left again and goes through some tunnels - but I just end up in the car park. Is this a different config? Or other pit boxes??

Hi folks. Is the Blackwood open config just for S3 license? I have S2 but don't see the option for it.
Throttle help

I want to teach someone the basics of pulling off using a clutch. Tried this on LFS but the throttle starts coming on its own. Why?

Can this be turned off? I can't find an option.

Quote from StableX :2.12 SR now after losing 1.2 in SR for the license upgrade. Oh well, at least I'm allowed to keep my name there ***cough***

You don't actually lose any SR points though; it's simply that the scale used to measure your SR gets shifted.

So it's okay to use a 2.5w psu to power a 1.75w device?

If so that psu on ebay looks like it would work (I need a G25 psu too)

Is there anything else different with the G25 edition? Or is it just the shifter mount? Or is there more?

For example, if you don't use the shifter, would the non G25 version be okay for a G25 wheel?

Interesting

They know how to keep tight lipped.

I'm beginning to guess the G27 doesn't exist. All rumours seem to stem from that one site, which looks fake.

To those who have payment issues, get yourself a pre-paid credit card. I use the Virgin one, it functions as a Mastercard and works fine with iRacing. No credit check, no debts, just load it up at the post office and away you go.

Where are you? Would you be willing to remove the wheel and just sell that?

You could maybe sell the pedals separately as suggested.

Quote from Gills4life :I apologise I did not see your post.

I take all my thanks away from Dustin and hand it over to you.

Haha, now I sound like a sulky little girl

I'll get over it

Quote from Gills4life :My only problem with NkPro is probably one that is very easy to sort out but I can't suss it. My clutch pedal needs to be inverted/uninverted because when the clutch pedal is untouched the game thinks it is full on whereas when I put my foot down on the clutch it thinks that it is disengaged. So in order to drive I have to hold my clutch pedal down.

I believe you can simply invert / uninvert the pedals as you wish, using the 'set min' and 'set max' buttons in the calibration screen. Hold your pedal full and hit 'set max'. Let it return to fully open and hit 'set min'

How loud is it when you spin it quickly? Compared to the G25 and DFP.

I recently hooked up my DFP again after almost 2 years of using the G25, and the noise was unbearable - unusable for late night racing.

What Wav quality / bit rate / freq are you decompressing into? Because I'd imagine an average song should be about 30-50mb, not 120mb.

The engine sound system is sample based, but they are small samples which are then randomised using some algorithm. I don't know if there are different ways to construct the engine sound relative to different conditions. This was mentioned on the member's forum a long time ago, but I can't find the details now, I don't remember the specifics.

As for not feeling the tyres on the track, I'm surprised at that opinion; it feels very connected to me, more so than any other sim. The tyre model feels great. There's a real feeling of 'bite' and you can hear the tyres chirp as they get pushed.

Quote from Shotglass :is it just me or does the cockpit judder really look extremely fake and not tied into the physics?

Can you see anything positive at all about iRacing?
