Just like buying decisions for the cars...

Just in case this is new to anyone on here, while a few will have motion sickness with VR no matter what, the default iRacing settings will give most everyone motion sickness - you have to change the settings manually to fix this:

This made a huge difference to me.

Yes.

Before I did what your link directs, the military rate of 30-35% experiencing motion sickness was similar to the percentage of new folks on my static three screen sim experiencing some discomfort.

Three screens and VR accentuated this condition.

Afterwards? About 10-15%

Those of us raised on consoles and the original Sony Computer Entertainment's seminal Gran Turismo? No problem!

Would love to see the outcome.

I attempted this with an old helmet (as an ex-motorcycle racer I have almost a dozen wrecked helmets kicking around) when I was still using my DK1. I eventually gave up - had to hack away a LOT of the helmet to make it fit and even then I never got the thing to fit right.

DK2 might still be doable since it has the elastic band. CV1, the head strap is integrated into the unit so not really workable.

I am going to have to check this out later because I never did find the sweet spot for my iRacing VR configuration.

So, I made the mistake of opening the box to my new ClubSport Porsche 918 RSR steering wheel in front of my wife. I guess I had a goofy childlike smile on my face as I held the wheel in my hands.

My wife said, "You look like Ralphie opening up his Red Ryder BB gun on Christmas morning. Only, you're a lot fatter."

31 years of wedded bliss...so far.

I tried to run iracing on my macbook that I use for school and to my surprise it runs it decently well on one screen. Getting 65 to 90 fps with all the car stuff at high detail. Just started with iracing and I'm addicted. I'll be slowly collecting parts to build a good PC and get some VR goggles.

Finished my budget PVC rig as well. Most of the materials bought with lowes gift cards from the inlaws for christmas. Pretty happy with it. Still need to paint it black and redo some cuts when I get a better saw. Did I mention my wife loves me. Haha.

Holy crap this Fanatec shifter is HUGE!! Wish I saw a picture of it in scale, mounting it on the desktop along side of my G25 (modded with a full size race wheel) the **** is the same height as the top of the wheel! May have to make some sort of platform up for it, not sure this is going to work..

I'll have new videos and in depth feature details of the GT3 simulator in a week or so. Tuning and testing is going well.

Also, looking for a fiberglass mold maker.

New video of some work in progress testing of the RealGT. Added a few new elements since the first video. Its coming along nicely. Sorry for the Sound, my gopro is fubar.

I just got my HPP pedals after years of modding Fanatec pedals to try and get them to do what I wanted. I really can't recommend them enough, although personally I found the bumpers provided too stiff of a pedal even with the softest bumpers. After replacing one of the orange bumpers with a few softer grommets, the brake feel is great and offers more control than anything else I've experienced in a simulator. Definitely worth the cost for more advanced users trying to mimic a real car feel.

I just did the same thing. Swapped one orange bumper with 4 rubber grommets from Home Depot. Brake pedal feels very realistic now, extremely happy.
