PC1 What Is Old Is New Again

[vegaguy5555]

I reinstalled Project Cars this weekend and I'm very impressed. Its not the old PC1 that I deleted 2 years ago. The graphics are really beautiful, expecially with these new monster video cards of today are very clear in vr with a nice frame rate with my Odyssey MR.

Also, with turning up the FFB to a 100 and tuning it down in each car and the help of my new Fanatec v2.5 wheel the physics are not bad at all. Quite lively and detailed actually.
I was hoping to swop some settings tips here.

And maybe some DLC. I managed to find near 60 cars so far.
The only thing that is disappointing is the auto exposure. Is there a work around?

No, just a shorter version of Oulton park that I like to race on.

 

[vegaguy5555]

Me too. There is a short track one with a lot of elevitation changes that I liked with this car.

So, I tried PCars 2 again with this new Christian's Pure FFB and it is amazing! This game is so much better now IMHO. The FFB sliders still need to be adjusted to taste but I can feel so much more detail...incredible work. Now I am trying all these fabulous cars and having a blast. The Indycars and FRenault are such a blast. Haven't tried Karts or Rally yet

Christian pure FFB helps, but PCars2 is still a lost cause, PCars, on the other hand if not a great simulator, is still nice to drive and a fun racing game.

I had the same impression. Next to all the fantastic new sim games, I don't know what it is that makes PC1 such a great experience in VR. Must be the new hardware that allows cranking up the graphics much more than before; I am running it on I7 12700, RTX 3080 ti. To my taste, the Nordschleife looks best and most realistic in PC1, compared to AC, AMS2 and PC2.

I can't get my new Accuforce wheel to work with PC1.
Very sad.
I think I still like the physics better in PC1 as well.

Yes I think so, too. The physics feel balanced, and the ffb on my Simucube SC2 is also very good. It also uses the full potential of my 3080ti, with my settings it runs on around 95-98%

You got your simcube to work!
But it doesn't have an option for simcude or Accuforce.
Which option do you select to get the simcube to work?

Custom wheel worked OK. I don't know how it works with the Accuforce, but I had to move the SC rapidly to the sides and have it bumping back to get it bound. Good luck!
