It's always a heated debate. My son has a quest 1 and 2 and he's always trying to convert me. I just dont think ill ever be really into it. Im sure it has its place just not with my setup atm.

With VR all my attempts at a cab recreation are wasted.

I dont think ill ever be into VR. Im not a fan of the headsets. I dont like not being able to see outside of the game. I feel the same way about gaming with headphones though. I dont like being isolated from the real world.

If you would like to see the Mic in action in game. I did a video using it with OBS. I havent done much with the convoy side outside of just making sure it worked.

Ill have them ready for download by the end of the week.

I made a speedometer and tact dashboard. I will upload it soon. I'm going to build out a cpu, GPU and FPS analog gauge cluster to fill in the gauges that I don't have telemetry for. I will share it all once it's completed. Thanks C Ray

Thank you its been updated.

Thank you! It's a lot of fun I love these truck sim games.

I have found so far as long as I stick to vanilla things have been pretty good. I was able to throw in a few trailer and a couple trucks so far. The new UI has been really nice. I have been tinkering with the new graphics features which has been great.

I've been thinking about building my own ffb wheel. I want to first focus on cab/dash recreation

Sure. It's just a button box I created for American truck simulator so that I can have things like a keyed ignition and various buttons to map for in game use. Utilizing a old Xbox 360 controller I was able to attach leads to the buttons pads and use the controller in place of a USB encoder. I run simhub with a custom dash from my phone and the lighting is for ambiance and function. My cab is kinda dark so there are times where having a light is very handy.

Honestly the most clever solution I saw was a guy sat his chair wheels in some shoes. The soles grip good to go

I have really enjoyed the additions.

Will do thank you.

I cant wait for the new DLCs I just hope that I get a little better performance. Texas saps all my frames as soon as I touch the inner city.

This looks really cool. It has to be pretty slick for SCS when they land these gigs for the game.

Here's some pics of what I threw together. It's all hot glued and messy but it works. Spring loaded nut and bolt presses the micro switch after pulling the fulcrum lever.

I love that nothing is right about it.

The truck is the Kenworth K100E by MrOverFloater. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1815959194&searchtext=k100 The paint job is Oldies pack Sludig https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2926276697

I really like mine. Its comfortable for long races. I did brace the chair so at the moment mine doesnt have the rocking effect. Here are some pics for a couple months ago when I got my g29. https://imgur.com/gallery/9kkFi4T

I really like it and I think I could hide all the guts underneath the chair when its all said and done.

Honestly I have a Poang chair from ikea and I was thinking about using windshield wiper motors like this fella did. https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/ikea-1-5-dof-ultra-comfort.5602/ I think it would be a great entry level start then Ill maybe move on to actuators and big boy stuff.

Man thats cool. I want to build my own wheel too. I think once I determine which motor to use Ill be golden just hard to decide. Im hoping to build a motion rig also in the future.

I dont know how VA would work as the left and right monitor but I have a single curved VA as my primary and two IPS as my left and right and outside of color matching its not too shabby. I like it. I'm soon going to be replacing the IPS monitors so I have three identical screens. I have tested the viewing angles and I dont believe Ill have any issues.

It's pretty fun finding creative ways to have a car in your house without having a car in your house :-).

Not that I have seen so far. I have found some cars that physics dont work on so you have to redownload the car through the RSF plug in.

It's remarkable. I love it.

I was playing with the Opel last night and thought of your advice as I went into this corner. https://youtu.be/ScuyeG00PxA?si=LbmIJcQLGq94p7wY&t=834

Thank you very much for the tips and advice. I was hoping to receive some constructive criticism soon. I normally use numeric pace notes when I'm running practice stages. I think I got so excited to run the rally I didn't really prepare. Correctly. I knew I was in trouble after the first stage but figured I'd stick to it. I turned off visual pace notes after that rally to force myself to listen to Janne. What are some stages you use to practice? The new RabocsiRing RX has been my go to for training. I'm sure there is better I just love that stage.

The brand name is ReadiBoard by RL Adams Plastics. I purchased it at my local Dollar store.

If you would like to see the latest version in action check out my channel. https://youtu.be/Qd_KazPPKoM

I posted the video in case your are interested.

Its really cool and all you need is a webcam or you can even use a old android phone as it supports DroidCam. Mine setup can be buggy but my webcam is going out and it resets on occasion. With DroidCam I dont have any issues outside of the phone getting relatively warm.

Oh man Im going to play with it more this weekend. Thats awesome ill check out proton 6.1 I wonder if rumble will ever work. I need to see what the previous versions can offer.
