Sim racing thread; Is anyone switching from iRacing to Assetto Corsa?
 

Any sim racers in here? Anyone switching from iRacing to Assetto Corsa (AC) now that AC has licensed PORSCHE content on the way?

Haven't tried AC yet, but I'm tempted to do so,now that I have an Oculus Rift.
BTW, iRacing is unreal in Oculus.

been a while since I played regularly but I can't imagine something with better physics than iRacing. Is AC comparable?

You guys need this... (my son's creation, that he designs/manufactures/sells, part time, from the KTEK world headquarters in Huntington Beach)

I would be willing to give AC a try. I don't want to be stuck with a subscription to race.

Bill, the price on those seems pretty competitive but I need a desk to do flight sim as well as racing. Does he have adapters for HOTAS controllers as well? Similar to Volair or Obutto?

Off the top of my head, I'd say yes- he has, or could make, whatever adapters you need to fly your desk around the office/house.
I'll forward your inquiry to him.

I was a die hard iRacing fan but AC seems to have better force feedback and overall feel when driving the car. The cars also have way more grip which seems a bit more realistic to me. The cars in iRacing sometimes spin even at very slow speeds? Hopefully someone with real life GT or open wheel car experience can make a comparison. I have a 911 track car and it doesn't feel anywhere as snappy as the cars in iRacing. Maybe I'm just not pushing enough lol?

The only problem I have with Occulus Rift is not being able to see my hands and wheel (real not virtual) when driving. It's disorienting for me but the 360 degree view is nice.
