I think I have most of you on my friends list now

CaptainRAVE · 23 Aug 2016 at 13:46

Since I love driving in the rain (and you all won't move on from Oz

), I have set a time in the wet in Oz.

im trying to find the ideal set up still

when i find that i will move on. done a few more tracks bahrain and spa.austrailia needs to be better first

does fuel mixture make much difference also might sound stupid how i change tires in time-trials or can you ?

I assumed you were put on the fastest tires in time trial mode?

Fuel mixture makes a fair difference tbh. Don't run out though

. I have been fuelling a little heavier to gain positions early on - easier to hold them later on in a slightly slower car.

I'm guessing it doesn't support multi view rendering al a iracing, AC, Rf2, LFS which means you end up with a fisheye effect and a very stretched/distorted image on the side screens. This makes turning into tighter corners, where you are looking into the side screens to spot the apex, a bit of guess work..

The fisheye is not "that bad" although it cannot be corrected like Assetto Corsa, however at least on my machine it crashes the frame rate from 80 to 21 and seems to introduce terrible input lag that I find pretty much undriveable.

I am only running on a GTX670 (albeit a suped up one) so better cards may have better results...

You can't change tires no, you're automatically put on the softest compound

Australia is frustrating. I can get up 6th tenths in the first sector, but always lose time through turns 11 and 12. It is by far my weakest track.

I always hated 1, 9 and 15.

Yup, there are basically 3-4 corners that will win or lose you the lap.

Would you be able to post pictures of your pad set up etc?
I'll be playing with an xbox one s pad soon

Sure thing man, should be on for an hour later. Buttons are default, manual gears, no racing lines.Traction left on high as I'm losing roughly 0.5 seconds in medium TC. I adjusted the steering deadzone and rate ours too.

Decided to buy this have and straight away decided to start with the time trial to get a feel of the handling and i have to admit it does seem fun to drive for once, have managed to get my time down to a 1.26.933 there is plenty of more time to gain but have given up for now.

Choimaloy75 · 23 Aug 2016 at 18:39

What set up are people using, I'm not using any of the assists and only seem to be getting around the 1.32 mark.

CaptainRAVE · 23 Aug 2016 at 18:48

Been working on my Oz times, have finally managed to improve. I finally have the last part nailed, but am now losing time through the first few corners :rolleyes:

MarkeR · 23 Aug 2016 at 19:03

Down to a 1.14.7 in Canada, moved on to my fav track as I know it off by heart..

Just medium traction and driving from the cockpit.

Last run tonight Melbounre 1.29.577, .

Bit late to the party just got the game. Is that in time trial Mode?

Phantom Shadow · 23 Aug 2016 at 19:44

So I can see different setup presets, more downforce etc - but how do I actually choose which one to use?

I can see how to edit them, but not how to select one.

maxilive · 23 Aug 2016 at 20:20

Just done a 5 or so laps on Australia on the default setup:

Not that bad of a time with a massive tank slapper during it as well

Once I've had a bit more practice with a wheel I shall give it another bash.

Just exit the setup screen while hovered over the set up, as it automatically selects them when you scroll through them
