I remember running it fine on like an AMD Mobility HD3450. The port is fine. But perhaps your definition of toaster isn't quite the same as mine. In any case, just go back a generation. CMR 2005 is a solid game, and so is Race Driver 3.

Fuck that, I'd rather play Rivals. It may have shit handling, a shit story and boring dlc, but at least I can actually have fun while playing it.
Hunter Flores
yeah its almost as if it was a NFS game

Looking for gud games to play on my laptoaster. When I say this thing is a toaster, I mean...
>Intel i3 5015U 2.1GHz >Intel HD Graphics 5500 Mobile >6GB SDRAM
I can run Underground 2 and TDU rather well on high settings. Currently looking at Race Driver: GRID, Dirt 2, Shift, Midnight Club II and Driver: San Francisco.

Fuck me, it looks so good! This game is seriously making me regret wasting my money on an Xboner just for Forza. I could've had this fucking amazing game, but instead I chose to get a long line of shitty, poorly optimized cash-grabs. Horizon 3 is pretty nice tho, so not a total loss I guess...
Welp, at least I can buy a PS3 secondhand on eBay and pickup GT6. Won't be good as this, but it'll be something.

>subscription based >i don't have a wheel, i go hard mode and play sims on an f310
I know it's an amazing sim, but I'm not going to put down $13 for the shallow amount of content in it.
Jacob Perry
i literally use a mouse and do just fine
Grayson Richardson
All of these are good. And the other Codemasters game are decent as well.
Camden Hughes
>controller >hard mode Literally get good
Thomas Clark
That wasn't my point. Also I am actually decent on a controller, I just need to be I N T H E Z O N E. I'm saying that I don't think the amount of content iRacing has to offer is worth 13 bucks a month. If it was just a one time payment I'd do it, and while I know the devs need money to license these cars and get the physics right, I just don't think it's worth it.
Luke Cook
>decent on a controller How many /ovg/ wins do you have?
Josiah Russell
>i don't race in /ovg/ because i'm not a faggot i just come here to enjoy the slow moving discussions and ironically shill for pcars2 because i know it will be shit
None, if you have to know.

I seen people misusing greentext all the time. This isn't /s4s/. We're retarded here in /ovg/, but we're not as retarded as them.
Grayson Morales
do you faggots do anything but crash into eachother and fastshame people who can actually drive?
Juan Turner
yes, we say we like a game and call others fanboys/shills for doing liking another game whilst being called fanboys/shills for our own taste

I don't remember rFactor having motion blur like that even with mods, but fuck if I know I haven't played in like 5 years

is there an easier way to figure out what all the parts of the GT3 skins are without guessing and trial-and-error?

Jack Bell
>DiRT Rally Keyboard ---> Fucked Pad ---> Less fucked Wheel ---> Okay
Just be weary that the Alpine is RWD, so it will oversteer if you give it to much. Should've gone with the MINI, FWD can help you in the corners.
Ian Adams
Hi I don't keep up with simracing news much.
-Does forza have decent wheel FFB -Will forza 7 be a decent PC port?
thank
Justin Ortiz
Is it worth getting a wheel for arcade/simcade racers or is it just a "muh realism" thing?
posted this is the previous thread but it died
Dominic Green
>Does forza have decent wheel FFB Decent, yes. >Will forza 7 be a decent PC port Won't be a port so it should deliver on all levels since APEX was there testbed
Robert King
Forza 6 has okay FFB as long as you're on recommended rotation settings, FH3 FFB is currently broken but Playground says they're fixing that in the patch that comes with the Hot Wheels expansion.
We know next to nothing about Forza 7 other than it'll have a bigger focus on wheels than previous entries and will headline Scorpio with H D G R A P H I C S, but expect a shitty port, because devs have no respect for the PC master race.
Also Forza isn't a sim you bumblecuck. Go play GTR 2 ifyou want a 10/10 sim.
Julian Reyes
seconding this. Would also like to know how cheap is too cheap. I'm a poorfag with expensive hobbies
Kevin Fisher
i bought one just for assetto corsa sold it about a year later.
i fucking love racing sims but the problem with the g27 is that it's such a nightmare to setup, you cant just push it to aside because there's fucking cables and shit everywhere.
Parker Bailey
Get a G920 faggot. PC and Xboner support and way less cables. You can get one on eBay for $200-$300 if you're lucky.
Camden Carter
I already play spergulators, I miss the automotive sandbox type games but don't want to play games that feel like utter shit is all.
I don't need Rfactor 2 tire model.
>unplug power and pedal cables, leave exactly where they are >move to top shelf of desk >if no top shelf just clamp it on the side or back of your desk >takes 15 seconds
wooooooooooow
Cooper Morris
buy used if you have to, but dont buy a wheel that isn't 900deg with FF and 3 peddle/shifter you kinda need to be willing to really dedicate some time to some very specific games as well g24/920 is good fanatec is great if you can spare the cash and are willing to put up with some somewhat questionable QA
Tyler Garcia
G27/29 is god tier for emulators. G27 has best compatibility, G29 has DFGT Dualshock-style button layout on a G27 chassis but requires newer drivers so it only works on Win7 and up.
G27 will work on Win98 as well as games released since that era like Monster Truck Madness 2 (with FFB!) and some late DOS games like Whiplash.
Overall a Logitech wheel it's absolutely worth it if if you've ever wanted your own arcade racer cabinet but wanted to play more than one game on it. Arcade games often have subtle handling dynamics that come alive when you play with the precision of a steering wheel.
Christopher Gonzalez
>>takes 15 seconds it's more like the difference between watching a movie on cable TV and watching a bluray
sure I can get the perfect verison of it if I got up and put the disc in the player, but sometimes you just don't want to commit that chunk of time
i dunno, I feel like this is a very specific problem for a very specific group of people and you probably know if you are one of those people
Michael Garcia
people too lazy to spend 15 seconds plugging in a controller before playing a game for likely more than an hour?
No I don't understand, please don't tell me you're american.
Joseph Williams
again it isn't the amount of time setting up it's the feeling of now commuting the next few hours to racing
and most people will take more the a few seconds to set up a wheel/peddles/shifter
Luke Mitchell
Whiplash in Dosbox should run beautifully.
Chase Phillips
Sorry guys but I can't race tomorrow, getting my cat a pedicure.
Nicholas Bailey
Just to let you guys know, I'm not going to be racing tomorrow. I'm couching my sons soccer match. So don't wait up for me, lol!
Evan Cox
>getting my cat a pedicure.
What are you? a fe(male)?
Adrian Hill
Regret to inform you guys...
But I'm going to be missing the big race tomorrow, got a family dinner to attend. Good luck to all fellow competitors tomorrow.
-Kevin
Angel King
Hey guys, I won't be able to make the race tomorrow. I'm going to be busy wearing skirts and kneesocks.
Colton Barnes
Hey yo guys, bad news....
Can't make it to the race tomorrow, promised my aunt I'd fix her car. See you guys next weekend.
Sebastian Howard
My fellow racers....
I'm sorry, but I just can't make it to the show tomorrow. After last week's disaster, I feel it's appropriate to take a break. Thanks for listening.
Oliver Hall
enough
Jason Jenkins
It's ok everyone! I'll be racing.
Adam Mitchell
on that note >using your real name for simracing >sometimes being forced to do so fucking why will you be my simdad

Noah Bennett
>1966 Spa >1972 Imola fuck yes
Logan Hall
Sorry guys, won't be able to race today as I'll be enjoying the silver birthday party platter at the Wigan roller rink
Eli Roberts
I have the exact same problem. I love racing sims but setting everything up means I have to be sure that I will not just drive a couple of laps. Sometimes I just want to fuck around for a bit but setting the wheel and shifter up and then putting it away afterwards takes around 10 minutes. I plan to build a cheap rig with those alu profiles so I won't have this problem anymore.
Samuel Wood
>having a screen that far away Why do people do this?
Jackson Turner
A "cheap" profile rig ends up costing $700+ here, not including the seat. The fittings are a bitch, they cost just as much as the extrusions
Connor Richardson
don't know where you live but this site is pretty cheap: motedis.com/shop/Friends-of/Sim-Rig:::200_423.html
Asher Thomas
Can't you people just weld this thing?
Oliver Powell
Actually Pastor is now. Mine spaghettied during the AC race, so he is hosting it now, but I have access in case he isn't there tonight. It should be up and running I just need to put the latest skin pack on when I get myself out of bed
Wyatt Wilson
anyone up for some 4za? i mostly do A class circuit racing or drifting add me: cri11eman
Adam Campbell
I'm sorry I pulled a vonmoltke yesterday, but I was too tired to race. That said, I'm still glad 10+ people still showed up for the race.
Next week it will be the audi TT cup with P2P around a track I will ponder for way too much and decide around thursday. Same time for next week too probably.
Ryder Butler
Can't you faggots who are too lazy to plug in cables and shit get one of these?
