Tuning guides for fh3? Or just tips? I searched YouTube but everything is a let's play so far.
please consider joining the Grand Valley 300km race next weekend. It would be great to have people other than the usual suspects show up.

no one guide is going to get you to be proficient in tunning because they cant cover everything, they have info that pertains to the writers preferences and you have to start understanding the settings to be able to diagnose and solve handling issues
the sidebar is the best place to start desu but this one should help you somewhat even though its for fm6

you should also try to learn to interpret the different telemetry screens once you have a general idea of what to do because it makes finding and correcting problems faster and easier
Since your so intent on proving me wrong, I'll just tell you to fuck off.
Fuck off.
Anyone want to bang out these 3 Co-op races on Horizon 3 with me? I'm trying to unlock that 911.
you hurt my feelings mang
why it gotta be like that
post GT
Super Tux Kart is surprisingly good, but also more frustrating than MK because the AI is absolutely vicious, there are more of them (12 car max races iirc), and the weapons make no sense at all. It's also got a small modding community and a built-in DLC browser. It's Free Software, of course.
The skillful parts at Daytona are the transitions from the straights to the corners. With these Arca shitboxes and rfactor oval physics it's less apparent because the track is almost perfectly smooth, but finding the right angle to throw your car into the turn so you end up riding the apron paint all the way around is critical.
Also, the inside is the fastest line, even in the straights. You don't wanna swing out towards the wall on exit like a normal oval unless you're trying to break a draft. The problem then is that the corners become highly stressful on the tires, so you have to swing out one and a half carwidths away from the apron right before entry in Turn 3 and squeeze up to the wall after the Trioval, before you enter Turn 1, then dive into the corner and try to use the banking to gain momentum. You go fast by turning left as gently as possible, but with unflinching accuracy, lap after lap.

My bad, got caught up doing the races with some random. GT is mx5zeroeight. Add me if you ever want to do any racing or drifting.
its ok bruv
either way you got the races done
>no good drift spots in FH3
>no good drift tracks in FM7
This sucks bros, why won't they bring Fujimi back?
There's a couple alright spots in Horizon 3, but I agree that it's pretty boring. I wish there were some decent touge spots to drift at. Also wish you could turn those fucking Drivatars off.

Mario Kart drifting is just simplified Ridge Racer/Daytona drifting.
What's the technique to drifting? When I do it I just "understeer" into the walls
Go private online freeroam
No drivatards but still traffic
you fucked up the secret to mario kart is to hang back and get the good items
For what, a real car or a Mario Kart?
For MK you hop while turning and countersteer to control your skid angle while wiggling the stick for boost.
for a real car, it changes depending on the weight distribution and layout, but basically you enter the corner at speed, brake gently and turn in hard while applying power, aiming for a point that is just inside the apex of the corner, the idea being that with the power down you will slide past it. You don't want to brake hard, but just enough to barely make the corner, this throws the weight of the car forward and increases the amonut of grip over the front wheels, promoting oversteer.
NEVER BRAKE HARD WHILE STEERING, YOU WILL CRASH.
ALWAYS BRAKE IN A STRAIGHT LINE.
For more impressive drifts, flick the car into the corner by quickly weaving in and out right before you lift your foot off the brake and start turning in.
The problem with "drifting" in FH3 is that there are basically no section of road with tight sequential corners, and you need something with AT LEAST 500hp to hold a drift of any length.

We also played Mario Party and the two Germans doubled over laughing when one of the games was called 'Lawiner Schlawiner'. They couldn't explain what it meant or why it was so funny and I've never found a German-speaker who could explain it in the ten years since then.
wat car you looking forward to the most? the 812 is going to be fun
I find I'm.in such a pretend race cars bubble that I'm shit at and barely know games outside the genre
>984 trillion Ferraris and Lamborghinis and Porsh-ughs
Not much. I just hope all my favorite shitboxes get updated with new models.
Can i be in the sekrit ovgrr3 club pls. Also holy shit this game's livery editor's better than most pc games
I completely agree. I went from Gran Turismo 6 to Horizon 3. On GT6 I could link entire tracks with 400hp cars. On FH3 I feel like most of my cars struggle to break traction with that power. That, and I prefer the tuning on GT6 to the tuning on FH3, even though the tuning on FH3 seems like it's a bit more in depth. It gets super annoying when I try to drift with my friend and I can't chase or lead for shit. I keep ~850hp in my cars with stock tire compound, where he has 1000hp+ on race tires. He's either so fast out of turns that I can't catch up, or he's slamming into the back of me because his car has traction.
Oh yeah, and engine swaps piss me off. Why can't I put a 2JZGTE in my Toyotas, but I can put an RB26 in them? Why does EVERYTHING have to be LS swapped?
It's not the LS3 swaps that are annoying since those are pretty realistic, it's all the fucking Viper/Aventador swaps. Modification in general is just stupid in Forza, you can't just make everything into a twin turbo Lamborghini.
/oGV300/ suggestion: put up a time trial event from now until 24 h before the race event so people can test their tunes and publish their times under identical conditions. Would be helpful for establishing BoP. Perhaps limit entrants who don't submit an appropriate time by limiting them to the lowest PP of those who submitted an appropriate time.
So me(Oliver) and Qrenco is doing the Petit Le Mans in iRacing on the 30th. Anyone want to join our team?

was making it as you posted
What track is that on?
Grand Valley (full)

Thanks.
In hindsight I should have before posting. I totally saw it after I clicked submit and felt pretty stupid.
>Lawinen Schlawiner
Lawine = avalanche
Schlawiner = rascal (or something along those lines)
>mfw I'm german and also laughed as I read this
Probably because Schlawiner is just such a stupid word. It sounds funny and is used very rarely.
>Camaro LM skin from Gran Turismo
Glad someone else already made one because I was about to do one myself
>Phone pic of GT photo mode
I hope you are continuing to feel stupid.
any good rally mods for AC?

Looking for someone to complete the three coop races for the current forzathon, tag is Exos271
It was a paused reply, photo mode wasn't opened. Had to send a pic to a friend right there in the moment. It's just been on the phone now for months.
Is this better? Does this one not trigger your autism?
literally low and slow (and very unreliable)
that's one thing that infuriates me: PD removing all the cool GT5 photo locations in 6
>GT5's piss-poor bokeh effect
Yes it does
same. No idea why only 4 places and 3 of them being in spain
>learn that videos of girls dancing are actually separate .avi files
>this means i don't need to launch the game to watch the videos
>copy files to personal folder
>refund game
avi? I remember it being some obscure filetype that wmp couldn't play at the time. I think I used mpc? Then again I never tested renaming the extension, might try it some time if I find the cd again.
>that moment when I found out some of them were actual porn stars
Ah, to be young again
>tfw cant put the 8.4 in the older vipers
They were actually .dat files but I was able to open them in Windows Media Player and play them as if they were .avis
>that moment when I found out some of them were actual porn stars
That's probably for the best, because if Bamco just grabbed random girls from an audition and said "Dance to some shitty licensed music against a greenscreen" then my dick would not be pleased.

Are there any technical specs for this race outside of running S3 tires and running consistent 1:50.xxx times at Grand Valley Speedway full? Because I'm interested.

I feel like this happens WAY more often than it should. Does anyone else have this issue? Playing on PC.
I do, but it's because my net sucks balls and it times out. Switching to my 4G phone's hotspot solves the issue.
i am unironicaly using FamilyMart as my car scheme for RAGS
this back bumper is so strange, why you guys are using rFactor Racing X over NR2003?
because it's rfactor. duuuh
>rfactor
rfactor oval racing is shitty level
its 2017 and people dont learned that Road Racing simulators dont fit in oval racing in the same way that oval racing simulators dont fit on road racing simulators
>better physics
>better netcode
I wonder
Remember when the shadow government tried to ban rfactor top lel
>oval racing simulators dont fit on road racing
fixed
Fuck, I might just play Forza 7 with a controller until I get my own apartment, this tiny desk is fucking impossible to work with
rfactor can literally do nothing wrong and we must keep playing rfactor and its derivatives forever for ALL other sims are trash
>better physics
>better netcode
you can fix the netcode with some game editions
same with phyicis, you can even create you own if you want, but maybe a shitty emulator called iracing can put you in justice...
>road racing simulators dont fit in oval racing in the same way that oval racing simulators dont fit on road racing simulators
But if it's anything of an accurate simulation of driving, then it should be able to do both, right? Both happen in real life, and real life has the same physics across the board.
Servers have been in a state for a few weeks now. It used to be that they went randomly for an hour or two bit now its just random failure to connect
Different cars have different physics
Gran turismo had such a nice photomode, really wish more games would pick up on simple things like that
that is the problem, since we have a fucking lot variery of cars that work in many different ways, they need make game physics that work in a specific way this why iracing has a specific physic for each car
but in regular games like NR or rFactor they need to choose where to focus, oval or road
Different aspects of driving matter to different simulators. No road racing sim is simulating how much surface has been displaced when you drive across asphalt because it's completely unnecessary for the simulation even though an offroad racing sim might really want that - likewise, oval and road courses have different needs and so while The Perfect Sim could make both feel amazing in reality whatever the game focuses on is going to have the better featureset.
>The Perfect Sim could make both feel amazing in reality whatever the game focuses on is going to have the better featureset.
i wonder when people will do it, but it can really take years since is so hard to make road and oval work good at same time
NR03 is not going to work with people from all over the planet. We've tried it. Also nice ESL.
You're probably better off if the FFB is anything like Forza 6 Apex and Horizon 3.
ASRXs netcode takes an Everest sized shit on N2003
you have a point
and you dont have
sup
I'VE DONE IT
I've tried both, sorry my man but N2003 is completely outclassed
hello ovg
are rags found in a box suitable for cum wiping?
thanks

dl'd AMS for smol, it says it detects the wheel in the device list, but nothing works. can't even rebind controls, when I press a pedal or a button it doesn't register it
any ideas?
do you have a controller plugged in?
nope, only the G27 in slot 1. also tried loading the G27 preset that comes with the game and it doesn't work

if anyone crashes when joining smol delete the d3d9.dll in your directory. And set the hud to default. Windows 10 upgrade broke java and dynhud uses that so.

toyota doesn't want their cars in games, they're not going to give you anything useful
those are probs the only cars they could license through loopholes
