From what I picked up it's not tied to fps directly, but it comes from the physics engine picking up collisions quicker and more often, causing less bounce and bottoming out
>>
>>2397052
Naturally - 6 will be so resource-intensive that nobody will be able to go over 60fps even on lowest settings.
>>
>>2397186
That's so edgy. I'm no game developer, but why haven't they moved onto asynchronous input polling? That sounds possible and is a reasonable fix to be working on.

This OP image reminded me that I should get a better CPU.
But getting a better CPU means a new motherboard, and a new motherboard means new RAM.
I mean, I CAN afford RAM at these prices, but I don't want to. Fuck jensen, fuck AI and fuck crypto.

Giving someone else the impetus to beat your ghost (that I can't disable on upload) is a disadvantage. In real racing, the best times are usually put to last in a session as to not give a window for another team's engineer and driver to analyse the time gains.

This is true but the way you're metagaming a recreational rivals leaderboard participated in by ~5 people on a good week makes me roll my eyes. If you just want the points, why even bother participating in the community at all? No thought spared for providing others an impetus to improve their times?

"Competitive" does not mean "balanced". It just means that you compete with others, and in case of war, you either compete and win, or you die, so it's the most competitive environment possible.

I have tried to have so hard to go beyond this, but there's just too much mental blockage. It was then in my lowest moment during the hundreds of attempts that I truly realised: wheels are incredibly inferior to controllergods.

Lastly, to my closest competitors: if you're reading this, you can be at ease now with this uploaded time and go beyond it. You have the potential, and I'll see you all in Vallhalla.

I'll be charitable this once: the secret sauce to insane lap times on this car-track combo is to achieve the perfect 'drift' consistently throughout. It's like a version of Jujutsu Kaisen's 'Black Flash'. It's a knife-edge balancing act with extremely minimal margins for error.

That's the thing about you wasteful biomass: you already lost the initiative and you still think there's something tangible in your baseless argument. This is why hundreds of thousands your people get slaughtered during conquest because you don't know when to stand down.

How is showing captures of *BRAKING ZONES* backing your point here? Did you not take a moment to at least try to process why I took my captures just before the leading car enters a braking zone? The leading car brakes first, the tailing car is still on throttle just before then. Please save face and stop embarrassing yourself.

whats worst is that the place where the real life starbucks is supposed to be is a giant room with a giant door bad parallax, i hate parallax since it allows devs to be ultra lazy with interiors, i miss when they used to put some effort into the lower floors

FML. Shit's gonna balloon to 250GB+ when all is said and done in the game's life cycle. Seriously, what are we doing? Everyone uses SSDs in the modern age, why the bloated cache of files? It can be trimmed to at least 80GB if they ever even tried HD2-style.

i said it before and i say it again - soon we return to cartridge system, but instead of cartridge it's gonna be a SSD with a pre-installed game. Just plug it in your PC and Bob's your uncle

Despite my internal pain of botching a '09:1XX run earlier, I liked this Rivals. I saw opportunity to be competitive given the sensitive pitch moment the car has whilst stock, and it bullies anyone not trailbraking through heavy understeer. Now to sleep.

Yes but nobody, not even Mexicans, actually cares about Mexico being accurately depicted. There really isn't much of a culture built around glorifying every aspect of Mexico like there is for Japan.

>I guess its better than using ai
Id say no. AI would make more soulful rendition.

>>2416686
it takes 3½ minutes and 250MB temp storage PER SECOND of footage though, so there's also this worse looking algorithm that doesn't use any temp storage and does it in 1 minute per second. good enough for these ultra-compressed webm clips though

try to record with something non-obs
>>
>>2417423
that's what I am doing. then, at a later point in time, I cut out the good stuff (with ffmpeg -c copy so I don't re-encode), and re-encode a webm copy for you guys
>>2417453
yeah that would probably make sense, maybe OBS is the problem somehow
>>
>>2416970
>soulful
No, AI is the very definition of soulless. On the other hand, AI would definitely be able to create something that looks more accurate, but only as long as you go sufficiently fast and don't stop to look at it or take any screenshots.

Do you think I'd get banned for replacing the commercial/billboard files?

Or how about this? Designate some preset times as a Schelling point, maybe twice a week near launch(once for euros, once for burgers), and also have a glorious winged faggot supreme organise the convoys by inviting everyone who's interested.
Then people just post their gamertags and get to convoy together.
No need for stupid 3rd party apps or sekkrit klubs.

ok so post ur name so you can get added to convoys lol

it's not secret if it's in the op

Motherfucker there's no invite in the OP, you have to go through the dead as fuck Microsoft xbox app.
And it still seems idiotic to have an alternate "secret" chatroom when there's nothing wrong with the main thread.
>>
>>2417720
We used to use xbox chat because its integrated with the game. Unfortunately its just too fucking shit so we were inevitably forced over to discord because at least it works.

Uggh, now I have to go over all of my cars to see which ones have liveries that I made directly on the car, and try to save them as vinyl groups.

I was gonna say that it could be because they reworked some awful car models like the S15 and the old liveries wouldnt work with the new model, but that wouldnt make sense when you think back to FM23 having a new imprezza 22b model and you could import liveries to it as normal iirc

I found accolades to be decent to grind in fh5, lasted me a good 300 hours at least before I got bored and stuck to the festival playlist
Not very exciting though, at some point it just becomes "set a clean rivals lap" for each of the tracks

Apparently it's because Horizon 6 has more car surfaces (windows, aero, etc). Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.

I never use liveries that include the creator's user name/channel/social media handle/contact info. Fucking attention whores.

Has anyone run into something like this? Almost the entire lobby was filled with GAME#### usernames and they all barely moved. Is this some bot farming method?

sadly Rascal_DA is pretty much the only livery designer worth a damn in the crew (game series, not just motorfest).
