That'll depend on if you can get those channels into the hi-fi amplifier from your game source and whether those channels output to speakers will be able to drive the 30-50 watts necessary. Ideally you also want flat sound, as anything that distributes the bass to a single channel will be kind of useless as that is what we use to drive the shakers.

If you are using the Steam Link software on the Quest 3 then you are using WiFi, regardless of whether you have it plugged in via USB. In this case your router is very important and unless this is at least a WIFI 6 router I'm afraid the experience isn't likely to be great. Do you have any details about the devices you are using to connect the PC to your router and your router itself?

Try adjusting the Natural Dampening (NDP) in the Fanatec software to see if you can get rid of some of this Oscillation. That should make life a bit easier!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing Thanks a lot, I will try that!

2.2 is not bad at all!

I had a 3090 at the time of recording. If you are struggling for framerate then it might be worth stepping down to high quality. The image quality might not be quite as good but we're always trying to balance visuals with performance in VR.

It was a huge upgrade from the G29 and I was super happy with it but you know how it is when that new shiny model catches your eye!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing I do indeed. Given how satisfied I was with the Logitech, it’s going to take a while for me to change. I had my Logitech since I bought my iPhone 11pro and I’m still rocking the 11 pro. Point being I don’t tend to replace working things if I’m happy enough. Or even if I’m not😂

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing typical that’s the base arrived today but the wheel didn’t 😆

@seebarry4068 I'm not sure what's worse, a base-less wheel or a wheel-less base? 😅 I suppose if the wheel came first, you'd at least have buttons to play with!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing well I'm all set up ready to go, all bolted down. I'm gonna be a 5 year old waiting for father christmas tomorrow. 🎄 🎁

Yea, some very dubious driving last night, hopefully people calm down, especially if the next round is wet 😅

Yea, not sure what happened with the Microphone, it was working and then it wasn't. A Pimax "feature" no doubt! The race was actually pretty good for the most part. Sadly the race win felt like it was stolen from me but that happens sometimes.

Such a low cost quality of life upgrade, even more so if you are driving with a two pedal setup. Let me know how it goes!

This could somewhat be a trait of the fans you've picked, though there is also a gotcha in the Simhub firmware with two very similar names, one pretty much works almost as a on-off switch and that initially caught me out. Double check that first, but if not, let's see if we can debug it together.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing Thanks alot , ive just had a surgery on my arm so i wouldnt be able to tweak or drive in the next month or two but as soon as ill have the option to get back on it ill hit you up , thanks alot❤️

@@loolaka1999 I hope the surgery went well and the recovery is good. I know exactly how it feels to be out of action because of injury and it is no fun at all!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing ty very much brother . Much love❤️

$650 is going to be tough but perhaps something in the second hand market. Otherwise, wait for a Black Friday deal. The closest I could find right now for a full system was www.microcenter.com/product/668529/powerspec-g235-gaming-pc which is $750 for a 4060 + 12 gen Intel CPU. On Black Friday you could find that drops further.

Try fresh installing AC without mods. Open it up to make sure the game works, close is straight down afterwards and then install and load Content Manager. It should detect the game and you can go from there. Sol can sometimes be tricky, disable it and see if the issue goes away, if it works without Sol, then graphics driver updates along with running the latest non-beta version of Sol should do the trick. If your operating system recognises your wheel and pedals, then so should content manager. Go into the wheel configuration screen and make sure they're both selectable, if not, try opening the control panel. We might have to delve into that part in a bit more depth to see what is going on though.

Yea, having some transparency on the IPD overlay would be nice too. So easy to do as the image is a png file - I hand hacked it but that only stays until the next update.

@Teqqlesdoessimr the ipd is manually operated. Adjusting the ipd in the file does nothing, because the motors are not there to adjust it.

@markchurch5273 there is a IPD Adjustment in software but that is just offset. The manual mechanism is a bit weak really.

@Teqqlesdoessimracing all good thanks mate.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing I could never get my ipd on point. Need a fix right away. You can’t name it crystal light if you can’t get your right ipd to really show it.

Due to the on-off nature of the motors and the current draw, I'd suggest the use of a motor shield. Adafruit is one option but there are cheaper brands out there with similar capabilities. Look at the specs of a shield you're interested in, if they are at or above the Adafruit you should be good to go.

I'm not sure what you mean. Pressing the meta button brings up the Quest dashboard for me?

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing yep when i do that in game whit meta quest link app all the game glitch and i should close bot quest 3 and meta quest link app, because is Nevers run better if i not do that

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing if i just open my quest 3 and quest link app on pc and chose ex : phasmophobia it run great but if i prest oculus menu the gamme glitch and fps drop like shit whit artefact and when i return on game its do me motion sikness whit full retard screen

@@franckqc0308 The Quest Link software isn't the best so that doesn't surprise me that you're having issues. Hopefully an update will be incoming to help with that.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing now i run my game whit virtual desktop and try to run elite dangerous whit virtual desktop too

Yep, use content manager to load the game 🙂

Slightly heavier. It has a fair amount more going on inside. It isn't a massive difference, at least I couldn't feel anything using the Simucube 2 Pro.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing Thank you.

100%! These things are okay but no different from any other sock with a grippy sole and inner lining!

Yes you can, though I opted to do without here to keep the costs down. You'll see in the pedal vibration motor video I do just that, however you'll still need to wire up the pwm to ensure you have variable speed.

The Quest 3 is a great device. Sure, there are a few things that could be improved out of the box, but right now, it is one of my go-to devices for the rig.

No problem and thanks for the advice regarding the toggle switch!

Thanks Justin!

It should be compatible with any Fanatec quick release.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing ah ok thanks

I think this was due to amperage through the motorshield, though you could probably get away with running the psu through the uno.

I'm still using the CL and have just picked up a Pico 4. Initially, the CL didn't live up to the hype, but a few firmware updates have made it much better. I'm still in testing but will drop a video comparison soon.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing oj thanks

I've seen some of the fallout in Discord so know exactly what you're talking about. The queries I've asked have been handled quickly but I've yet to have a hardware specific fault.

Yes, Toolkit was made as a proof of concept of how it should be done in games rather than something the author wanted to support long-term. My hope is that someone will take this on or make their own version which will allow us to play the many old sim titles that will never get these features implemented natively.

I'm in the process of going through a review so will give me thoughts in detail soon. On some things it is a clear step up, others not so much (especially on the sound front). I'm going to stick with it for a review though!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing Sounds good!

I believe this is only really useful if you want rain physics on vehicles that don't have that checked on by default anyway. Cars that have it enabled I don't think it has an impact on and if the track/vehicle doesn't support it then it'll make not difference.

I'll have to give it another go as I've not tried it in a while. Initially, it had quite bad artefacts for me around the edges of the lenses.

in my experience theres more latency than virtual desktop and airlink. But I use wired most of the time

Absolutely love Virtual Desktop ❤️

Now if only it worked with Linux

I have the same head strap and it’s great. Very comfortable.

Absolutely, I have a review video in the works and have driven the Nurbs 24 hour race using that head strap. Hot swapping batteries and having the ability to keep that Quest 3 LED green indefinitely is awesome!

I have 2 batteries and the new charger, so i can rotate the batteries when I've started running list and essentially okay wirelessly indefinitely

@@73N5H1 Same setup as me, works a treat. No downtime.

@@73N5H1 Yea I now have done the same. The S3 Pro is awesome stuff. I even keep the batteries rotating when the headset is off so I can be ready with a full charged headset at all times.

The original Pimax Crystal has issues so I'm not sure I'd recommend that as a wireless option for you. I hear what you're saying about the Quest line of devices though, the headsets can't always keep up with the encoded video signal and it feels like a syncing issue. It might be worth trying from a low quality bitrate and see if that gets rid of your issue. If you get hitching even then that'd certainly be depressing!

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing thanks for the info. I already tried lower resolution and lower bitrate. It’s the same thing. Tried different computer and same. I really don’t think it’s a hardware problem because it happens on both quest pro and 3, but it didn’t always happen on them.

@@GhostWriter_Music is this wired or wireless? I had issues with consistency with the Oculus desktop software which went away with Steam Link but then the visuals were a bit on the rubbish side, this is wireless though.

@@Teqqlesdoessimracing it’s wireless. I don’t have any problem with consistency in wireless. Even the stutter is consistent. Something I have noticed is gpu to vsync having a drop in milliseconds same time stutters happen. It also does it in the desktop, and watching movies from the desktop. It started happening after version 58 and it’s not part of that bug with WiFi. It’s a consistent 2400Mbps connection, I’m just researching how to get it back to previous firmware. Since it happened on both my quest devices, I can rule out hardware fault.

@GhostWriter_Music wow, good to know. Hopefully, a downgrade fixes your issue. Let us know how you get on!
