[iRacing] Discussion générale

Bon, j'ai résolu mon problème en me contentant d'enlever la poussière, plus qu'à tout remonter

@Matrix : bon courage en oval en rookie, c'est souvent un massacre, mais faut persévérer pour passer en D voir en C

Curieusement, j'ai presque pris du plaisir à courir sur l’ovale, moi qui suis sensé détester ça
Bon, j'ai conduit 36 tours/40 avec un volant à 45 degrés , j'ai été pris dans 3 accrochages dont un ou je suis fautif (pas vu qu'un gars prenait l'intérieur...), mais ce ne fut pas inintéressant...
Parti 9 fini 9 .. Ouf.. l'honneur est sauf !
Je retenterai à l'occaz..

En revanche, j'ai voulu faire une dernière course en MX5..
Et je me retrouve dans une série avec un SOF de 2500
Inutile de dire que j'ai fait dans mon froc.
Parti en 8 ième position, dès que les 3 derrière moi ont commencé à se manifester, je me suis vautré comme une m.....e
Et j'ai donc fini 11ième, un tour de retard... normal...
Pas compris ce que je foutais là en fait...
Le premier a fini les 20 tours avec 59.7 de moyenne..
nan mais allo quoi

ba c'est que t'es pas mauvais, et au moins tu es censé être tombé avec des vrais, pas des bourins

Moi j'ai toujours pas essayer l'oval depuis que je suis inscrit
Sinon y a cette nouvelle tuture pour les ovalistes… Je sais pas si ça avait déjà été posté:

Et voici la release note de notre update de demain

------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the release notes for Tuesday's 2014 Season 2 update.



Simulation:


User Interface

- Both the replay and driving screens now have user interfaces where elements can be moved around. Not all elements can be moved, but most can. Press alt-k to activate the UI edit mode, any object that can be moved will then be highlighted with a blue background. Simply use your mouse to drag the object around and then hit alt-k again to exit edit mode and permanently save the positions. Some elements are laid out relative to other elements, for example the delta time windows depend on the vertical location of the virtual mirror, so if you move the virtual mirror then the delta time bar will move as well. Just be sure to move the parent element first then the child, if you want to precisely place everything.

- By default you can only move elements that are currently visible on the display, but if you set app.ini [Graphics] forceVisibleWhenMove=1 then all movable elements will become visible when you enter the UI edit mode.

- If you are using a triple screen setup and you want to move the UI elements onto your side displays you can now turn off the code that restricts the UI to just the center monitor. In app.ini [Graphics] set DriveUIFullScreen=1 to allow the driving UI to span all three monitors and set SessionUIFullScreen=1 to allow the replay screen to span to all three monitors.

- The delta bar can now be hidden when using the ghost car or delta time feature, just set app.ini [SplitDeltas] deltaBarHideBar=1.

- You can now increase the level of transparency of the background of the UI in both the driving and replay screens. Set app.ini [graphics] SessionUITransparency=1.0 or DriveUITransparency=1.0 to a value less than 1.0 to increase the transparency of the replay and driving user interface and set it to a value greater than one to decrease the transparency so the UI is easier to view (in some limited cases).

- Fixed a bug with the delta time bar where the reported time could get cutoff if it jumped over 1 minute.


Camera

- We have added in support for editable driving cameras; think of it as having an adjustable seat position. You can now bring up the camera tool and edit the driving camera just like any other camera. You will be limited to the same range of motion that the TrackIR device is limited to (a couple inches in all directions). Note that this is not cumulative. Moving the camera up to the limit will stop TrackIR from being able to move up. The driving field of view and VanishY are not currently adjustable on a per car basis, instead they are still written out to the app.ini like always so that your FOV is shared between all cars.

- We have added in two new wheel cameras to complete the set, bringing the total number of editable on car cameras to nine.

- We have opened up the camera tool to support 179 deg FOV's, even if most cameras can't go past 160 without a triple monitor setup.

- There is a known bug where changing the FOV while driving and then editing the FOV from within the camera tool can cause the FOV set while driving to be lost, reverting back to the original FOV when the session was started.

- We have opened up TrackIR head motion a bit in order to improve compatibility with the Oculus Rift. Using the TrackIR with the original Rift is a nice experience, if you can get it to work. The trick is to start up a Rift demo before starting up the TrackIR software so that the TrackIR software does not attach to the Rift head tracking sensors. Once the TrackIR software is up and running you can launch iRacing at any time and everything will work until you restart the TrackIR software (until you reboot the computer).


Brass Monkey Support

- We are now utilizing the Brass Monkey engine http://playbrassmonkey.com/ to provide integration between your tablet or smart phone and iRacing. By downloading the Brass Monkey client from your app store you can now use your tablet or phone as a digital dash or even as a driving controller. Simply launch the Brass Monkey client on your phone, and click the iRacing link once the simulator is up and running. Tapping the steering wheel or HUD icon in the upper left will allow you to switch between displays. The app.ini key [Brass Monkey] BMAllowDrive=1 allows you to enable or shut off the driving controls.

1) Install Brass Monkey client on your phone or tablet.
2) Launch Brass Monkey client on your phone or tablet.
3) Start the iRacing simulator (not the website).
4) Click the iRacing link on the Brass Monkey client to connect.
5) Click the steering wheel or HUD icon in the upper right hand side to switch between a heads up display and driving controls.
6) If you can't make this work, double check that your phone is on the same wi-fi network as your computer.


Spotter

- Updated the TJ and Steve spotter pack with new samples.


Controls

- Turned down our rejection of noisy axis so that joysticks that only use a tiny fraction of their available range still work.

- Fixed a bug that caused the bump stops to be applied backwards when inverting the force feedback forces with an app.ini switch.

- Added in a new experimental 'friction' damper to the sim. This provides a small amount of resistance to wheel motion no matter how slow or fast you move the wheel, creating a sense of weight on your wheel. This works best on lower end wheels. To use this change app.ini [Force Feedback] steeringDampingMaxPercent=0.0 to a value between 0.05 and 0.30 depending on how much weight you want to add to the wheel. If this becomes unstable then adjust app.ini [Force Feedback] steeringDampingFactor=0.10 to a smaller value, but you should not need to adjust this at all.

- Make the traction control controls available for assignment.

- Added look up and look down controls.


Telemetry

- Write traction control state to telemetry as "dcTractionControlToggle". Note that this is the real in car traction control for cars that have it, and not the driving aid.

- We no longer expose the ghost car information to telemetry.

- In order to better support synchronizing disk based telemetry with live telemetry we have added the following features: A new broadcast commands to turn telemetry on/off and to start a new file so an external application can control the telemetry. A new telemetry status output "IsDiskLoggingEnabled" and "IsDiskLoggingActive" to indicate that telemetry is enabled and if a file is actively being written to disk, and a new session string parameter "TelemetryOptions:TelemetryDiskFile:" that provides the full path to the current telemetry file so you can locate and parse it in when it is finished being written. Using these, along with the session time parameter you should be able to easily merge both data sets together after the disk based telemetry gets written out.


Garage

- You can now switch from English to metric units inside the garage with a checkbox.


Race Control

- At tracks that have an extended start line (Suzuka, Spa, Bathurst) the leader of the second pacing line will no longer be restricted from passing the race leader until the end of the entire first lap. Now that restriction correctly only applies until passing the start line.


Shifting

- Fix problems where cars with a fully computer controlled gearbox get stuck in neutral if the clutch is disengaged while downshifting.

Que du bon dans cette update

La cadillac avec contrôle traction et ABS ça tombe pile pour le championnat fixed de la saison 2
Au fait, elle se lance toute seule la MAJ ?

Sur le site ça va te dire que ton install est pas à jour avec un lien pour updaté
Et sinon oui que du bon

j'ai fait un peu d'Oval au début (j'ai pas dit "ORval"...quoique...), je me rappelle des premières courses que j'ai fait, j'avais mon cardio à au moins 120 pulsations/min dès la mise en grille, une gestion du stress de malade, jamais eu ça ailleurs, mais que c'était bon
Ensuite je me suis concentré sur le Road mais j'ai toujours une petite voix intérieur qui m'appelle vers l'oval, pfff...faudrait des journées (et des nuits) de minimum 72h

@Toche, merci pour la mise a jour.
Ayez la Bmw est là , le NTMv5 de la HPD

Hier je me suis acheté iHUD for iracing sur iphone, content d'avoir réussi à le faire marcher, j'ai pris l'option Button box.
Et là je vois ( si j'ai bien compris ) qu'avec Playbrassmonkey, on va pouvoir avoir un HUD gratuit !!!! ppfff 9 € pour rien

Je suis de ceux il y a quelques années qui pensait que les courses sur ovale c’était ennuyant mais j’ai changé d’avis depuis que j’en fais sur de vrai jeu de course. Sur un routier il y a toujours une portion ou tu peux faire baisser tes pulsations cardiaques mais sur ovale c’est autre chose.

Au début en street stock ça peut sembler tranquille comme course sur un short track, mais les ovales comme Indianapolis, Michigan, Iowa en indycar à près de 400 kmh ou Gen 6 c’est du 180 pulsations par minutes garanti du début à la fin.

Moi qui n'en ai jamais fait (si ce n'est quelques practices en rookie),et qui compte m'y coller plus tard en espérant que ..... ,ça me fait plaisir de te lire Berny , 'merci'

edit by syd:

@bioessess: yessss et j'assume

@Berny34: Tout à fait, et rien qu'imaginer à un éventuel dépassement après plusieurs tours collés au pare-choc du mec juste devant soi, l'adrénaline est doublée.
Par curiosité j'avais testé une course avec un plus gros calibre, ce sont des vitesses de fous mais ce qui m'a fait un peu reculer ce sont les rookies-rambo, on se plaint parfois en road mais en oval ça pardonne encore moins, je m'amusais à observer les "strikes" de l'arrière du peloton et ensuite zigzager entre les carcasses qui partaient dans tous les sens juste devant moi
Bon allez j'arrête là....non,non,non, pas d'oval maintenant j'ai dit...

J'ai fais essayé iRacing puis GT6 à Zacura (de GT5rs), il n'a jamais touché à un volant, pour lui il y a pas photo le feeling au volant de GT6 est à chier par rapport à celui d'iRacing, il viendra peut être le confirmer

Avait-on besoin d'une autre confirmation?
Ricardo, tu as vu que l'on a droit dans cette nouvelle build à un nouveau paramètre (sorte de damping) pour peaufiner le FFB dans le app.ini (dans un premier temp). Je croise les doigts pour que ça allourdi les force faibles/moyenne sans pénaliser le détail du FFB. Hâte de tester ça!
