Assetto Corsa

The Huayra is a piece of cake compared to some of the cars! The reason I always find it handles a bit oddly I think comes down to the active aero, it's not quite as predictable as some of the other cars.
The F40 is hugely predictable for example, I know with absolute certainty it's going to try and kill me. All the time.

What button setup are you using?

I use the T500RS. I haven't assigned any of the buttons yet.

Uncle Petey · 4 Mar 2016 at 14:09

Can't remember.
I'm currently using my backup CSR while my T300 gets repaired.

For your wheel, I'd recommend mapping change view and maybe headlights to the two buttons on the wheelbase.
Map a couple of turbo options to the L2/R2 buttons on the wheel (say, 60 or 70% and 100%).
Map SE and ST for brake bias.
Triangle for look back.

Other than that, maybe square and circle for look left/right maybe. I dunno, whatever you think you might find useful

Nice shots.

I'm really slow in this. Need to put in some more practice.

Do any of you take part in online sessions together.

I've raced a few times with Uncle Petey on stopdropgaming.com, and I've also participated in a few races on racedepartment.com.

No VR support means I'll be unlikely to return to this, in favour of p: cars

From their latest newsletter:

Talking about R&D, we would like to say a few words about Oculus VR: in 2016, this incredible device will finally be available with a definitive and standard SDK. It is in our intention to fully support the device in Assetto Corsa when it is finally available for public purchase with a proper and final library,

AC v1.5 Dev Diary – Part 1/3

It's all about the new track and v1.5 improvements.

PinkFloyd · 24 Mar 2016 at 16:38

Looks awesome, I enjoy racing on tracks but driving on roads always tends to appeal more. Spend my life on the Ring normally when I have the game open, so will be good to have another shiny road to drive about

Uncle Petey · 24 Mar 2016 at 20:32

Check out some of the road tracks here

Not sure, but usually patches were released late afternoon-early evening UK time.
