Braking feels very different with a wheel. Less defined. Understeering also feels different. Steering too much results in a sudden loss of force while in 22 the ff effect remained the same.

Assetto Corsa: Early Access |OT|
- Thread starter Addnan
- Start date
Spent ages reshuffling the desk so I can squeeze my wheel in, so damn fun (not the reorganizing). Worth it, but I may just leave it under the desk now for easy access.
The f40 is so fun to drive (with a wheel)!
Can finally understand what I was doing wrong...think it was a combination of what others mentioned, the steering and the boost. Needs finer control.
Yay! all set up

Just to reaffirm, my 3570K@4.4/stock G1 970 setup runs it pretty much the same. I ran the game at the same settings as you listed and got the same results. Looks quite a bit better running DSR 4K as well.

Man, can the La Ferrari cover some ground or what? You are absolutely hauling biscuits by the time you get to Blanchimont. I don't think I've ever had to brake so hard for it.

At Spa at least, I'm actually pretty surprised with how much I've enjoyed the car. It's not nearly as silly as these hypercars tend to get in racing games. Looks great, sounds great, that's for sure.

Update just now that fixes IPD config for DK2 support. Give it a go guys!
Its almost too fast for me. At Spa, it can at least stretch its legs at points, but at other tracks, my foot is down for a few seconds and then I'm having to brake again! Its so fast its like all tracks need to scale 1.5x the size to accommodate it properly.
Is it the bar above the speedometer? I mapped KERS to X on my controller. You hold it down just like in F1 games right?

It just updated and is now in glorious stereoscopic 3D in the DK2! Scale also fixed! I can make proper turns again
Can't wait to try it out this weekend. And realize I need to upgrade my PC too...

That's great they've jumped straight back into it to fix OR. They are good like that, I have to admit.
It's so true. Magione, no way José.Man, I just did "Joux Plane" with a Shelby Cobra, a G27 wheel and my DK2.. It's a little embarrassing to be this "dramatic", but; I experienced true presence for the first time in my DK2, and I almost felt a tear pushing its way out at the side of my eye (you know, always dreamt about this day from when I was a kid..). I was actually driving an awesome track in the morning in an awesome car kind of feeling like driving with the wind in my hair, it basically felt real. I'm amazed..

Oh man, can't wait to try it when I get home. Supposedly a file was left out and the patch just added it back in, probably why their were so many people wondering how they could let this implementation in and not wait.
Great to hear! Can't wait!
Fantastic. I had the "presence" feel for the first time in Ocean Rift, then massively in Elite Dangerous. Can't wait to get home, you're not helping! (more impressions please)

Oh man this game is taunting me so bad. It's installed on my machine but I haven't even played it yet. I bought it during the Steam sale but haven't played it since I don't have a wheel yet. Ugghh. Waiting for the T300RS to release...
Oh man, so the Rift experience is improved with this update? I was getting by fine this morning and having an awesome time. This weekend is going to be glorious.
I was driving the Zonda on Snoopy's Nordschleife and it was wild. Besides some small issues with head position and tracking wonkiness. The Rift really makes clear the incredible interior detail.
Hell yes. I love JP. The X-bow is a blast there as well. Also not sure if it was just a tiny tweak or the new engine, but the X-bow sounds different (better) to my ears.

If you played a few hours ago I guess you played it without stereoscopic 3D, and the scale was off (cockpits felt HUGE..). I didn't notice directly at first.., but had this strange feeling that something was off, lol.
Yes, I felt some of it in Elite too, but for some reason, when I did the Joux Plane run it felt even stronger than that. Maybe it just was my time today. It'll be interesting to hear other people's impressions.

Anybody running this game in SLI with version 1.0? From my experience the game runs better with a single card but maybe there is a known fix?
According to this, setting faces per frame to 6 helps:

Damn don't make pull out my Fanatec guys xD
I'm going to try this with a controller, fuck it.
EDIT: what setting do I need? Extended mode? anything else?

The KERS system in the LaFerrari is automatically distributed into the drivetrain, not distributed with a button. Think 2014 F1 cars vs 2013.

HOLY SHIT I made it work.
Unbelievable. The interiors in the DK2 are so real you just stare at everything like you're a five years old kid at Christmas or something.
Everything feels so REAL. Definitely the best Rift moment ever for me. And I've tried tons of things, even on DK1.
Kudos to Kunos. Simply amazing.

I CANNOT ever get Extended mode to work =(
Is there a way to force directrift mode?
Do you have a tutorial? I made such a mess out of it with Win+P

No tutorial, just a little trial-and-error.
Here's what I did:
- set to extended, then paused the service from the OR utility;
- set DK2 as primary desktop
- launched the game (to use the menus I simply take out the lenses and use the rift as a small screen, set every option, start the race, and then put the lenses back in).
Now I'm trying to get it back to work xD

Boy oh boy the F40 is brutal with the DK2, so fun.
The game randomly looses the controls, though. I'm racing and then my view changes to outside of the car and the wheel doesn't work anymore.
I'm using an old ass Logitech Drive Force from the ps2 era, I can't be bothered with putting my Fanatec together right now (tomorrow though...).

I seriously can't get over how good it looks in DK2 now. That fucking lighting.
Go to Imola and set the time to the latest, and check out your shadow on the way down the hill. It stopped me in my tracks in the 98T, and made me reverse up the hill and back down again to see the perfect long shadow flowing over me.

Really, it's just that good.
It only looses a bit of detail in the distance, otherwise it's perfect. Crystal clear despite the low resolution.
Oh, and the positional tracking works as a charm: leaning over things and watching them from different angles it's almost as fun as driving.
The artists' work really shines this way: materials are incredibly convincing.
I get judder in pCars but get none in AC. Also, I would have to say AC looks better than pCars with the new updates.
Wow. Because from what I could tell, pCARS was the benchmark for DK2, if not just for racing games. That Kunos (a tiny team compared to Slightly Mad, and undoubtedly with a much smaller budget) can smash it out of the park (admittedly, with less content) is an amazing fucking thing.
I'm so, so happy they're doing this well. IMO it will be the first true driving sim to make it big outside of the simracing community.
Don't you go taking Spa's name in vain.

PCARS has the worst DK2 implementation of all the racing games. Playable, performance is fine, but it feels slightly wrong all the time. It's just the prettiest. (That said, I've not tried it for a few builds, perhaps it has been fixed). LFS was the benchmark for sims in VR.
....it was... now I'm not so sure.
On the 12C, i believe this is mimicking real life behavior rather than a debounce issue. The electronics wont let you switch gears that fast to protect the car.
Betta Lines

I don't see how that can explain it I'm afraid. If anything, pulling down two gears quickly makes it shift faster. And you can blast all the way down to 1st going at 100mph and blow the engine instantly.
Watch any 12C video where you can see someone pull the downshift paddle and listen for how quickly it changes down. It's much slower in AC. It behaves like a single clutch paddle shift rather than a dual clutch. It should shift very similarly to a 458. Compare the downshifting of a 458 and a 12C in AC. The 458 downshifts as expected, the 12C is like I've got the only manual 12C in existence (which would be awesome).
Its just what i remember reading, but if you think its an issue then put a post on the AC forums and im sure the devs will chime in.
Yeah, it's clearer than LFS. I was very curious how that would turn out, I was fearing that a more detailed simulator could lead to a muddier picture, but it's clearly not. 1080p is still not enough in many ways, but AC is still so good.. And it doesn't do that micro-judder that LFS did (even with a fast PC).
Speaking of sharpness, have any of you guys messed with the post-processing effects or even SweetFX with DK2 support?
Using the sharpener effect with SweetFX makes a fairly dramatic difference in clarity under normal use and might help reduce the blur that comes with the resolution of the DK2.

The thing is, when I set it to primary, all my desktop gets moved to the Oculus screen and I can't see anything from that as everything looks warped. Since nothing is on my monitor I can't start the game.
Win+shift+arrow keys works for me.

very good DK2 experience once you are racing. Nice job Kunos.

Still have yet to try AC. Gonna try it in a little bit, but you should try PCars. They've fixed a lot of the weird issues with the Rift. Tracking is smoother now and more precise.
Edit: Sweet mother of everything in this whole goddamn world. The Rift implementation is impressive.
Edit 2: What do people have their settings at? I'm surprised I can keep up 75 fps so easily. I have everything on max. In Effects, I have everything turned down just one notch from max and everything is turned. And in reflections, everything is either normal or medium. I think I can afford to bump a few settings since in RTSS, my videocard is only being pushed 75%.

For you and everyone enjoying the game with the rift, what are you settings in game (i guess you all put oculus rift in the display mode option) , which fov ? 'Cause once in game my view is not good (too much left and in the helmet i think).

During a race turn on the pedal and wheel app(mouse to right side of the screen). The right (or left?) graph shows you when you're clipping. Reduce gain to reduce clipping. I have it set to 84 for my G25.

You don't set FOV in VR. If you've calibrated your IPD correctly the FOV will be correct. Sit in your driving position and hit spacebar+ctrl to centre your view.
I guess this depends on where you're coming from....
I am quite new to pc racing sims, coming from console racing (mostly the GT series).
I tried rfactor2, iracing, project cars and a bunch of other games like lfs, x something and offcourse assetto corsa.
For me assetto corsa is tha bomb! And it is not even finished yet!
Iracing was nice, but needs way too much attention and hours put in it, which is something i do not have the luxury of, nor the patience.
I guess, so many people, so many wishes.
Assetto Corsa is the game for me right now, will put a lot of time in it.
