Hrmmmm, well that's a drag. They've got a good VR thread over there. I'll poke around.
Iirc, AC's exposure issues are fixed by manually setting the exposure after disabling auto-exposure. Perhaps there's some ini tinkering that can be done in pCARS too. Moar poking
Official forum is up now so any bug reports or feedback would probably be appreciated over there: http://forum.projectcarsgame.com

Anyone know about what settings the console versions are using in regards to the PC version. Trrying to get it running at 60FPS on my Alienware Alpha, and like a baseline to start at

maybe a benchmark with Bots next? I think the fps go down quite a bit when there are other drivers on the track.
what program is this on the top left corner?
Hmm, that's interesting, because I also run the game on W10 and the performance of my 780 is quite a bit above of what I expected based on previous reports. And it just took the recommended settings from Geforce experience and made some things a little better. Unfortunately I don't have time until Monday evening to play around with this.

I'm guess you're just supposed to disable shadows in PCARS... which makes me wonder why Krejlooc thinks it looks better than AC. I mean, it definitely does look better than AC when maxed out on a monitor, but not in VR, with the shadows in this state.Hrmmmm, well that's a drag. They've got a good VR thread over there.

As for exposure, it looks ok when I whack the exposure compensation setting right down, but then all the external cameras (like the intro shots before each race) are very dark.
Thats coming next, but I wanted it to be uninterrupted as I did views from different angles, start & stop etc. I don't think the FPS is going to drop that much tbh. I also didn't run my GPU overclocks either.
Edit: MSI Afterburner is app on the left.
I didn't know that, Cheers for that info. And your correct, I was judging it from when I started moving. I hold the accelerator down until the green light, then I throw the car into first gear.

Oh hey a public forum. That's great!
Here's a DK2 post with the info ganked from the other forum:
http://forum.projectcarsgame.com/showthread.php?21856-Oculus-rift-DK2-Setup-Guide
That's going to be a fun place to moderate!
No ive installed the disk and downloaded the latest update
There's something else wrong with your PC then.
I have everything on high/very high, advanced graphics options turned all the way up and I rarely ever drop below 60 on 970. Only time it goes lower is outside of the city, too much foliage to render out there I guess.

Just had a quick go on the PC version with my Simraceway SRW-S1 wheel. My rig is respectable but not too awesome by the latest standards. i5 3450, 16GB RAM and an R9 290. Played Oulton Park in the Formula Rookie and got very playable fps with the game's defaults of mostly high settings at 1920x1200, even in a thunderstorm. Probably not 60fps but it was constant. Changed to a Ginetta Junior at Monaco in overcast conditions and the fps looked like they halved or worse. Not sure whether to find the worst performing track and adjust settings accordingly or lower the resolution and put up with non-native res. Might lower to 1080p and have some tiny black bars.
Anyway, the physics are spot on on the wheel. It's got that same tyre squidge feeling as Forza when you change direction. You can just feel the rubber between the car and the tarmac somehow.

Same thing happened to me. Also deleted and reinstalled and it fixed the issue.
Just came here to post the same about XB1. Game is near damn unplayable. Sounds are mixing and glitching out too, constant frame stutters and speeding up/slowing down mid corner is a huge distraction. I swear the game spends more time at 20fps than it does at 60.
You are better off clutching, 1st gear on, throttle to the metal. When the time comes, release clutch with care, each car needs a different approach. Remember to brake if you're down or uphill.
They are great, although lacking some resistance for the clutch pedal.
Just in case it's your plan, be aware that this pedal set cannot be used in suspended mode with the WSP stand.

Ya the audio bugs are insane. I posted a video on my channel with an example or two. Now that the forum is opening for reporting bugs I got a couple dozen to post.
Yep. The first thing I noticed is that the setting doesn't seem to be the same between race types. Super odd. Or it just needs some severe tweaking to get just right.
Mine arrived today and just got an hour or in. So far I'm...underwhelmed of I'm honest.
The menus have a very unfinished/pc port feel about them (xb1) and the framerate is all over the place - I didn't expect a solid 60 but I'm sure it dips into single figures at some points!
I'll give it time though. Does anyone have any good settings for using game pad? I've ramped the steering deadZone right down but still feel it could be a little smoother?

With how many cars on track? And is this in weather?
Is that how you're supposed to hook up the Leap? Directly to the USB like that? Is that what that dangling chord is for?

I pre ordered the game yesterday from Best Buy so hearing this is a concern..do you think this will be fixed in a patch update? This is my first racing game I have bought for the PS4 so Im hoping this will be fixed

There are some massive bugs in it....one second you are about to hit a corner and the next the screen suddenly ghosts and you end up off track
There are a heap of sound bugs....and i suspect the penalty system is broken in some areas
I also had a go of the xbone version...no graphics issues but the sound bugs are still there
There are occasional frame drops and there is occasional tearing, but performance is far from terrible. For the vast majority of the time in normal play it is 60fps. It can struggle under unusual and extreme load, though.
Lots of cars in the rain.

$37 is damn tempting. Though I have barely even touched Assetto Corsa.
It's not under extreme or "unusual" loads, it has frame tearing like crazy and frame rate drops do happen regardless of extremeness, see
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5JKUIU3l3U at 1:26 and on theres no cars around yet all the red bars on the side are tearing isntances

Wont' let me choose 60hz in the options, only 59. Was having this problem with GTAV also. I just reformatted my computer today with a nice new hard drive. Refresh rate is at 60 in the NVida control panel.
Anyone else having this problem or is something up with my system?

Such widely varying comments on performance of the PS4 version. Up to release the videos looked pretty good and I felt confident in buying day one, but now I see lots of both "It plays great! And "Terrible performance!". Now I'm unsure if it's safe to buy it next week. History tells me the negative comments are hyperbole or some isolated problem but I'm just not sure.

Gross exaggeration, I've been playing since Tuesday every night for at least 3+ hours and yes there are drops & tearing but nowhere near enough to spoil the fun (or be very distracting).
Pcars has better graphics and content. Assetto corsa has better everything else.
Oh and ac has wheel ffb, Pcars doesn't.
For a second I thought you meant d-pad, but you mean sixaxis_ right?
Content wise, i see that only a few tracks are laser scanned on PCars but overall has a lot more tracks. On the car front i guess AC is moddable but not all mods come close to game dev quality.
