I still don't see how you take that as some joke. I obviously wrote that as psuedocode because I'm not part of T10 and have no idea what the exact conditions are for this change in steering to happen, but it definitely has to do with detecting oversteer in some way and then checking if the user is countersteering. If so, it changes to some different steering mode.


And my point is, the code that is causing this to happen likely isn't tangled up in a big mess of physics calculations always going on. Meaning that it should be easy to remove and should not cause any side effects by doing so.



The reason I take it as a joke is because of the way you posted it. When I read your post it came across to me as if you'd somehow gone in, hacked the demo and discovered the source of the problem. There was no explanation. It just read as if "eureka!!! Look what I found!!". In short, it read like a trick or lie.

Given the MASSIVE amount of debate and tension people have around here regarding this steering assist topic I feared the worst.

Was my comment a meaningful and insightful one? No. I'll admit it was not. I was however expressing my dismay at the turmoil that was to come. It only takes one thing, interpreted the wrong way for many people to just lose all sense of reason.

Just to be clear: do I believe you to be a liar or to be attempting to perpetrate a hoax? Nah, I dont think so.

I have a PAID vacation day used for Tuesday so I can enjoy the game for the entire day. :)

No because your going to be on here telling us Brits what wheel options are available. 8^)
 
I just realized that I don't have class that day. And I assume that we don't work on campus either. So much for preordering in Carbondale so I could pick it up on the way home.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid...
 
And if I dont get pedal order fixed with Fanatec, I will be sitting there on Tuesday with a GT2 wheel, and now a 30-55% working brake on my pedals...👎

Put racing brakes on errthing and turn up the braking power. ;)
 
Anyone know of a place online to order a racing seat for console gaming...that is AFFORDABLE. I don't need speakers in the damn thing.

I was with you until you got to the affordable part. I don't know of any cheap ones. I will be just buying an actual race seat and converting it myself when I get the extra cash.

The Obutto cockpit isn't too expensive. It's what I run.

After that, if you want cheap you'll have to build your own.

There are actually some plans available online that you can use to build a cockpit. After that just get a seat out of an old car and you're good to go.
 
Yes, I was planning on building my own cockpit. I have a friend that is a professional welder as well. I was just looking for an inexpensive seat. I can build around the seat.

I will just look in the hardware thread that is pinned I guess.
 
Here is what I am using with a regular chair.
I'm just going to buy a regular racing seat and make a chair out of it. Something like this

Wow...that seat is more affordable than I thought. I was hoping to spend no more than $300 on a seat. If I can get that seat for that price, than that is great.

Thank you.

You could also go with BOMZ racing seats. I bought a pair of BOMZ racing seats for our 67 Mustang for around $200.00 for the PAIR. Yes 2 seats for about $200.00 and they are quite comfortable. Plus they recline and can slide forward and backward. You could probably find 1 Bomz racing seat for about $100.00. And they come with the sliders.
They have a very wide variety of colors too.

Here is a PAIR of BOMZ racing seats on ebay for $175.00.

No problem bud. The seat plus the bracket is over $100 less than buying any rig sold here in the US.

If anyone in the uk is looking for a cockpit a guy on my usual Forza haunt forzamotorsport.co.uk posted this up http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RACING-GA...K_Controllers_Attachments&hash=item415d9eb38d

Looks like a cracking deal.

That is an amazing deal. If I found that here in the US I would buy it in a second. Iv'e been looking allot and never found anything even double that price.


Damn good deal. Thanks for posting that. 👍 $90 for shipping though :ouch:

wow, thank you Camaro!

No problem. Keep in mind I just installed 2 of those BOMZ seats in our 67 Mustang. So if you have any questions let me know.
$90.00 for shipping is not bad for 2 seats. Especially since you get 2 complete seats for only $175.00. 👍
You could even check Craigslist in your area and maybe find them even cheaper. Plus it will save you shipping.
The best news about that auction is that the sliders are already installed!!! :) I had to install my sliders. So that step is finished already for you.

It's not bad for 2.If Bogie lived close to me then I'd say hell yeah we could just go in on it and we each take one but I only need one.

This one looks good in black and red. $85 +55shipping

This Suede one is nice also
$90 +$50shipping

:) That suede would look great on my Playseat. Add another thing to my list :)

Do you have a direct link to it?
 
Awesome. Would you or Bogie be interested in purchasing my Playseat seat if I pick this up? I would sell it to you for like $50 + shipping.

It would have to depend on when you would be selling it, how much shipping would be and if I will have the spare cash at the time which right now I don't. Just spent what money I had on Football tickets just a couple days ago. Check with Bogie though since it sounds like he is more interested to get something sooner.

Alright. I am in no hurry to sell it. But I would much rather sell it to someone on here then a random purchaser on eBay. If I do end up getting that faux-suede seat then the original seat from my Playseat will most likely go into storage until someone on here is looking for a cheap alternative.

When I bought the Playseat is was $70 for shipping and handling. So, without the frame I really can't see it being more than $40. The seat is extremely light so I lean towards the lower side of $40.
