[Bram Hengeveld]

I'll get around to it hopefully soon as I've really enjoyed racing at RD since I joined.

I have added the P2, maybe that is a good fit as that worked before?

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Also please make sure to reduce the headmovement in game to the absolute minimum. By default there is plenty of headmovement enabled. Also recheck g-forces settings as they have been updated last month. @nepal roade

 

[nepal roade]

thanks Ben I'll give the P2 a try and I'll check the headmovement stuff again just to make sure. Fingers crossed all will be good and I'll be joining you.

Screw it, i shall be Ben for a day Updated avatar.

I'm afraid it's this track at the speeds these cars go and so much (for me) excessive sideways movement through the twisty bit, I'm already feeling I don't know if I've gotten more sensitive to it having had a month break but sorry I can't manage this one. I'll have to see how things go on a track by track basis. Sorry to be such a pain guys as I appreciate you all trying to help me out here. Maybe it's my age.

Ah just for a day, It's Ben a trying time though I wouldn't want you to Ben'd over to please us but I definitely see the value in being Ben for a bit

 

[Kees Veenstra]

I'm sorry, can't make it this time Ben.

 

[Yannik Haustein]

DPi, let's go

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Die Pi ei pls

Welcome back mr Haas

I recon I understand what my motion sickness problem is caused by. When I bought my present monitor, I wanted something 40 inches or so and 4K. The only one I could find at the time only runs at 60hz and I think that is why the sideways motion of the image makes me feel queasy. And I've been fooled by my card's performance which is well in excess of 120fps. Time to sort out the VR headset.

An easy test is sitting further back so that the display becomes a smaller part of your view and seeing if the symptoms persist.

Now that you mention it I remember doing this when I first got the monitor. I was interested in an FPS game and was watching a demo which I ran full screen and immediately felt whoozy so sat at the back of my room a good 10 feet or so away without a problem. Good point @Casper de Wit

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Sorry @Bram Hengeveld - going to have to let you down - real life has reared its ugly head. I'm unlikely to make next week nor the week after either which is really annoying

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Unfortunately we are going to cancel the race for tonight due to too low attendences numbers.

We'll be back with a new friday night racing format shortly but the le mans series will not return for now.

 

[The Almighty Snark]

Awww I was looking forward to some regular madness tonight!

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Me too mate ;(

 

[The Almighty Snark]

It'll be back when it will be back! In the meantime let me say that I've thoroughly enjoyed racing on friday's with all of you that attended our insane Le Mans series, visiting cleveland and throwing in CART cars from the 00's, because that is what Le Mans is all about!

I will see you all on the tracks!
