LAN network play now has auto-discovery too, be sure to select the correct NIC in the ` menu if you have multiple but otherwise it should just werk (tm).Here is the complete IDA database for anyone who wants to look at decomp: https://files.catbox.moe/yavcg2.7z
>>28929688As a teenager in the 90s, all I wanted to do was attend LAN parties. I never did though, too autistic I guess. At least I had cable modem broadband by around 2000, before most.
It's another "Anon spends all their credits turning a perfectly good stock car into an undrivable piece of shit" episode
>>28929698I don't think "too autistic" was your problem. I went to lots of LAN parties. We had a group that at first encompassed both of the local Catholic private high schools. Breakers were blown, extension cords were melted into the floor of two different dudes' mom's kitchen floors, and much fun was had until one fateful day when there was a massive fight over how to properly configure a router and the group split up. Still continued to have LAN parties but the two groups could not have a giant one together after that because of the giga autismos who were still mad at each other.
I havent played a "realistic" racing game since grand turismo 2. Since then its been mariokart and f zero GX.
>>28929711>imagining a bar fight style argument over how to configure a router
>>28929694namaste
>>28929698Same. I didn't even know there was any irl video gaming communities until I was already in university. The only games people played in high school were COD, GTA and FIFA. Didn't really know anybody who played PC exclusively and definitely didn't play online with people I knew. Thought LAN parties were strictly a Japanese thing and didn't start meeting other gamers until I stopped being autistic and tried reaching out on Facebook. Being an undiagnosed autist is a curse. Doctors tell me I have ADHD too, like that wasn't bad enough.

Do you guys wear gloves while Sim Racing?
>>28929842That's cringe + it's a physical barrier between your hands and FFB.
Kunos won.
>>28929842Yes but only because the TS-PC rim is made of Alcantara so it will be ruined fast if you don't use gloves.
>>28929868just clean your wheel every once in a while, brother you think people out there are driving their alcantara wheels with gloves on 100% of the time?
>alcantara wheelsUse leather like a normal person.
>>28929869Idk it's just what was recommended to me and I don't mind using the gloves
>>28929871Also Alcantara doesn't feel that great to touch without gloves. Hard to explain.
>>28929866Well, it's not like an alternative exists
There's a guy decompiling TDU 1 on turboduck forum, I can't wait for someone to port the map on assetto corsa when it's done, I'm too retarded and listless to do any of this, thank god there are people who are not bums like me
assetto fatigue
>>28929997>I can't wait for someone to port the map on assetto corsabe careful what you wish for
>>28929997>TDUdont know why so many glaze this game i remember the driving being straight up bad
Wen CS series unironically.
>>28930066It is bad, the racing is fucking ass, the map geometry is absolutely fucked and the game even back then was boring as shit.
>>28930066>>28930096Geometry is fucked, but I like the physics on controller in hardcore mode, and the map is very nice
>>28929900>
The RS50 arrived today. The desk is strong enough to handle 5Nm. However, my chair slides quite a bit. I solved it by putting the wheels on a pair of shoes and reducing the braking force. Is not ideal, though.The space is just right, which makes me have second thoughts on getting a rig. I have to brace my chair somehow.
>>28930188I've seen some anon using a towel but you can look for wheel brakes or pic related. Weren't you getting a wheel stand too? Some have cradles for your chair's wheel, it does the job.
>>28930087mics vs no mics
>>28930188I use a regular chair, with legs, for racing.
>>28930190>Weren't you getting a wheel stand too?I'd rather not. With the wheel protruding from the desk I have just enough space to survive. Adding a stand would leave me with no free space at all.Those stoppers seem like a good idea...
>>28930201I see. Well, all I can tell you is to start slow. I know you body will ask you to smash that pedal to the metal but you need to get used to the wheel first. Take your time to find a comfortable position, place your pedals against a wall and if it moves use boxes or whatever you have to lock its sides.And take your time.
>>28929972Still better than a controller
>muh apexthat’s some low test virgin shit
>>28930263Perfect for me then
>>28930205Lol, that's a beautiful rig. Thanks for the tips. So far I've tried F1, AC and GT4. F1 is alright. AC is crazy. And GT4, wow. I wasn't expecting much, it being an old game, but the FFB is actually amazing (for me, at least).I can't wait to gitgud, so I can race some friends of mine.
>>28929688>random crt>random keyboard>random pc with any AGP graphics cardThe good ol' days when you didn't need to concern yourself with hardware to play a game.
>>28930066because when it launched there was no other game like it. you could physically go to a dealership and spec out a new exotic car exactly how you wanted it, and then take it for a cruise on a 1:1 recreation of Oahu, with your friends online also driving their custom cars. all of this in 2006, during the the MMO craze. in other words, it's Forza Horizon years before Horizon existed.people are nostalgic for the vibes, and are confusing that with the game actually being worth playing again.
just buyed ACC
>>28930360I first played tdu 1 this year and I loved it so I'm not confusing much; it's been more enjoyable than any forza horizon I've played so far
Nacon is closing down studios. Hopefully Kylotonn is gonna survive...
>>28930411lying tranny
>>28930194EZ elo for no mics
Why the fuck are they so expensive? Is it really just part of the idea to expect simfags to pay it up because they already own expensive gear already?
>>28930467I'm size 13 (UK) anyways. Too small.
>>28930467those aren't just for larping simfags, you utter retard
>>28930480What do you use then?
>>28930481
>>28930481some worn to fuck old pumas
>>28930467real chads cop pumas
>>28930523Eh I've already went to e-bay for the size I want.
Supergt crashed in the nurburgring, no damage tho
>>28930578webm???
I use something like picrel. costed me 11€
call me retarded but I like fwd cars and TCR racing
>>28930087when ut99 series
>>28930732q3a was superior
Yo Elantra N guy. Got your car yet?
>>28930736while i prefer q3's weapons ut has superior movement and map design
>>28930738dm6 will never be topped. even though I’m lowkey a dm7 fanboy
I don’t understand why the car changes directions the moment I turn the wheel into the opposite direction when trying to initiate a drift. It’s either that or spinning out.
>moza, fanatec, simagic >plagued with hardware and/or software issues >logitech rs50>just werks
>>28930737I had to get it shipped from carmax but I'll be getting it within the next few days hopefully. if there isn't any issues with the title or damage during shipping I'll have it by the weekend
>>28930839trvke
>>28930885you’ll have a great time with that thing. turn all nannies off and witness the most playful fwd chassis currently on sale, assume it’s somewhat similar to the i30N
>>28930906Yeah im really excited for it. Im trading in my n line for it, its time for the real thing. I gotta get used to performance driving a fwd car though, its the complete opposite of what im used to
fucking kek r/moza is comedy gold. every other post is about wheelbases making strange noises. the videos are hilarious
>>28930927You get what you pay for
>heh, i'm a redditnigger!Waow...
>>28930927Leddit is plagued by Chinese bots. The sim racing community most of all. It's insane.
>not browsing r/ sim racing and r/ iracing shamona...
>>28930927I'm sure most of these problems can be solved by just using grease.
>>28930959Never had to grease my thrustmasters
