My messy corner. And my somewhat compact rig. I’ve never posted before so unsure what information to include but I’ll give it a go.

  • T300RS
  • R838 Mod wheel
  • ebay arduino handbrake
  • TH8A shifter
  • Heusinkveld Ultimate+ pedals
  • Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0
  • Some pieces of wood
  • Acer Nitro 37.5" QHD+ 3840 x 1600 display

I’m a bit insane… so I drive all the displays with a Radeon W6800 Pro which works surprisingly well for gaming despite not being intended for it.

I use Linux exclusively and have for over 10 years now. Racing is a more recent hobby but I’ve been gaming much longer than that. Despite what all the youtubers say it all works mostly fine. Though I found hid-tmff2 to be the most mature of the wheelbase drivers outside of logitech which is why I haven’t picked up a used DD wheel base just yet.

EDIT: Dunno why the pic won’t upload, maybe a bug with Lemmy 0.18.1? Anyway I added an imgur link instead.

    Funny you should mention that. I just tried to get rain working in AC using Proton. I sunk so many hours into it unsuccessfully that I decided to just buy ACC instead because it has rain built in… After that experience it was very satisfying to select rain in the drop down and it just… rains.

    EDIT: Automobilista2 has rain too. I was just angry at everything and ACC was my “throws hands up in exasperation” impulse purchase.

      I mean ACC is very very good. I’m finding it a high ceiling to have pace but the game is so enjoyable. I know I have to tweak my online settings to have more variety with weather tracks and so on. I’m still working on that. You eventually get tired of the monza speed runs.

      Again AC with content manager is incredible in its own right, but in terms of how the game is set up the learning (and download) curve is much less with ACC.
