Possibility to show physical wheel ingame

Yeah, sleeping is dangerous too

VR seems to be something really similar to sleeping though, it is looks similar to dreaming. I would love to try it. But the fact that surroundings doesn't exist for you anymore would always feel uncomfortable anyways.

I guess it also takes a bit of time to learn to find shifter wheel, and not punching the monitor. I guess you still need a monitor anyways.

 

All you need a monitor for is to start a program so you can use your desktop with VR. It didnt take any time at all to find the wheel, pedals or shifter. If you dont need to look at them with a monitor you dont need to look at them with VR. Do you have issues finding your wheel and shifter in real life? I thought so. You wont have any issues with VR neither.

 

I know that vid, very interesting, but i think i remember it to be some concept, how it "could look like", somehow afterwards cut together. In addition i ask myself how much additional CPU-Power would be needed and how it would look like ingame, because if a camera records the wheel you see your wheel in the local room lighting, which i think could look very strange concerning brightness and shadow behaviour. Anyway, very cool.

BTW.
Just stop sleeping, drive in VR instead.
Results in equal Risk level.

 

I had some co-workers over to try Assetto Corsa in VR a few months ago. They all had a driver's license so they know how to operate a car but they have never been at my place before or had any sim experience either. We started in VR right away, no time wasted playing on TV. After a few short rounds they all used the controls without problems and they did not punch the TV or the monitor next to it They had problems controlling high powered RWD cars at first but that was to be expected. They drove quite naturally and they loved the immersion VR gave them.

 

I hope my two y.o. daughter doesn't plan with my pet to kill me while I'm simracing!

 

It's starting off quite slow, my 5 year old is just checking out what's possible, while i'm in VR. He already figured out, that i don't see him eating my choclate bar.
Anyway, i use to start simracing when he's asleep. Sleeping boys don't kill

 

Maybe family members can be trusted. However, that trick with chocolate is a bit like entering path of crimes.

I would have done that too, tho

Maybe VR is a lot of fun. Should think about it. Is it very demanding for hardware ?

 

Yes. It's demanding, it needs some pc-knowledge and one or another workaround.
But when you managed to get it all working nicely it's very immersive

 

I don't think Marcel sees another wheel than me in game. The YouTube videos are edited, obviously.

 

Yep, very well made video, in which a cam in a green room records the driver, hands and wheels and laid above the mirrored oculus output to show what could be possible in the future. If i get it right

 

This was one of the things I thought of when I got to briefly try VR on my set up.

I couldnt see the wheel or button box. I could hit a few buttons from muscle memory, but the button box became next to useless.

Interesting idea. Oh, and ignore Michael. He has issues. His attitude is neatly summed up in his sig.



Elitist much?

 

Could you pls

Be kind, and don't mention a diss on the long end!
Micheal has his rights, like every one of us.

 

Sorry ace, but i just have to ask. What right does he have to bash anyone of another opinion, without giving the issue any thought. I had a simple question. And i, believe it or not tried really hard not to offend anybody, make no request, and tried to make understandable why i'm asking. Michaels answer was pure provocation. Nothing else. Kunos gave us

And he bashes my question, because i ask if there are plans to model some wheels??
I know, it's not that easy, but hey, come on ...
It's a week before christmas, i work in customer service and i am just fed up to deal with unnessecary psychotic behaviour even in my free time.
Do you really defend this?

But yes, anyway, i'll try to ignore his emissions from now on. Can't promise though

 

Hey @pankykapus feel like whipping up a dozen or so 3d wheel models, shouldn't take long and it isn't like you are doing anything anyways. Get Marco to write a check for the licensing, we all know that Kunos money is limitless so this shouldn't be any big deal. Somebody will need to get approval for each wheel on each car model, but I'm sure the manufacturers don't care about things like that, so shouldn't be any problem at all. (and it also seems like a job that somebody can do during their lunch break)
Oh yeah, you will need somebody to add a section to the UI, but surely that is but a simple copy and paste job that likely won't even need to be tested. Speaking of testing, this will only add a thousand or so extra combos for your beta guys to test before each build, might want to hire some full time testers after this. (money is limitless after all)

Seems like a lot of time and money to spend on a feature that will only benefit a few dozen people, but yeah, guess I'm the *****le for thinking this isn't a good idea.

 

Okay, and would it really be THAT HARD to put that in a way, that doesn't sound like a collection of "you're a moro#"s??
I asked "Are there plans for..."
A little bit less asocial would have been
Something that started with:
"Hey, that won't work, because..."
