Useful or fun ACC youtube video

That mess start you make lol

 

Useful one, i guess:

 

I like Jardier very much.
The "boy" is really on it!
Fast, explains a lot and is funny.

 

Yah, seems like a cool dude. And this helps, both beginners and pro-amateurs It will be nice series.

 

Jardier is one of the best under pressure drivers there is in any sim. Rarely does anything phase him, he can read and answer chat questions eat a sandwich and still win more times then not. He is glad to answer peoples question, I have asked a few and he was more then happy to answer them

 

I really enjoyed watching that and listening to his explanations He is nothing like Mr load mouth...

 

Still no videos of how to setup the car. I know there are videos of fast drivers sharing their setups, but nobody explains why they change what they change or how is affecting the car.
I come from GT Sport, the setup of a car in GT Sport takes about five minutes (suspension, gearbox and differential mostly). Here, judging for what Aristoteles and others say, height ride and tire pressures mater a lot (things that you don't even touch in arcade-sim).
I'd love to sit and test every single aspect myself but I work 70 hours a week .

 

Hi all, my channel is all Gran Turismo Sport and iRacing videos/stream, this is my first of many videos/stream on ACC... I love it so far and look forward to becoming part of the community here!

 

They should explain every setting in game, I don't know why it's not like that. They also make these car posts in the forums and also do not put them in game, like what the hell?

 

essa visão do interior do carro é muito legal!

 

100% agree. I was surprised by the lack of information about setups, I found a good cache of resources here in reddit.

But as you say this is not right. The game does not contain info about settings, and this forum is pretty much the same.

I surrender to the evidence that this community will simply not share setup knowledge. Aliens don't care much about setups because they can drive almost anything. Regular drivers, who are the ones that mostly benefit from setups, won't share them because it takes time and effort to render such a good advantage. Result = little sharing of knowledge.

People find the advert in Steam to buy ACC, the game looks amazing, sounds amazing. People buy it, and they find no really much info.
They probably search in google and find this forum, where they can read very long theoretical posts that don't give straight instructions for anything in particular. Again, good read, but nothing really practical.

This sim requires such a big investment in time and research that only aliens and people with a lot of spare time will be able to really get the hang of it.

I'm creating a repository of setup resources, at the moment I have about 19 files, including books (online only) of Carroll Smith that I accessed with my University credentials and I'm allowed to share.

Also this guide by Chris Haye is very complete







and so on.

I still need to find more stuff for the repository, and write one single post describing each file and attach it or link it. It's going to take a while.

 

I don’t think it’s people not wanting to share there setups, it’s more less not everyone drives the same. I’ve been sim racing for 5 years now and I’m only starting to realize what things to change in the setup to help understeer or oversteer ETC... yet I still don’t know exactly. It takes a lot of practise, patience, commitment and LAPS upon LAPS to figure out if it’s actually the car causeing the problem or if it’s your extreme driving habits.

The So called “Aliens” may show there setup but if you can’t drive like them then it will never work.

Try watching Yorkie065 on YT he has a video series that only covers Project Cars 2 but theres a good chunk of information to be had for understanding what everything does in the setup menu.

 

Setups depend a lot on your driving style. I've never been able to take someone else's setup and have it work for me. So I've taken the time to read and watch what I can about setting up a real car. This knowledge applies to most simracing games. I'm no expert yet but I understand enough that I can make adjustments based on what behavior I want from the car. I found these video below helpful. Yes, he's talking about a different type of car but a lot of it still applies. @eRacer212, next time try asking nicely

 

Driver61 driving technique videos. There's a whole bunch of 'em in a playlist called Driving Technique. I won't post them all here. Too many. Here's the first couple. Go to the site to see them all. Very useful info

 

???

I didn't know I was being rude

 

I did a run in a typical online race to measure performance in realistic conditions. The result is usable, not great but far better than what people say.
As long as the number on the bottom is yellow, the excellent reprojection of the Mixed Reality headsets will be able to smoothen out the image, so I didn't really try to chase pure 90fps at all.

 

Georg Ortner from raceroom is going to race live shortly, should be interesting.

doesn't he just slag off everything thats not raceroom? i've seen him moan about all games when he corners with far too much lock because in his game raceroom you can literally scrub round corners at full lock and be fastest

 

When your as fast as he is, you can say anything you want. lol
