Easily in my top 3 tracks also mate 👍. Always makes my day when I see your comments. Hopefully I'll see you out on track. Much love from NZ

Cheers Cisco. Glad you liked it 👍

Cheers Kevin. Appreciate that! Hope you like the new style ive been playing around with.

@@TheVRRacer most def. The view onboard opponents on track makes it even more engaging. Knits the race into sort of a story.

VR was made for simracing :) Appreciate the comment. Im always trying to improve my new found love of editing.

Cheers mate. Glad you like them. I hope so too :)

@@TheVRRacer keep up the work and the fruit will come

Yup...thats pretty much how it came out.

Honestly, I didnt know who he was....just that he was fast...but I do now!

😂

That Lap 1 was the most loose ive felt the MX5 before. Definitely a few colourful word came out 😁

Thanks mate. Appreciate the comment!

Glad you enjoyed it! I dont mind you asking....just a bit complicated to explain in a comment. I too record with OBS and the WMR mirror. Short answer -> Bitrate & GPU scheduling optimisation and some movie magic(sorta). For a longer discussion, all my settings for iRacing, OpenXR & Nvidia CP are all available on the Immersive Racing Discord. Free to use! We are a small but growing community. We can chat and try help to improve.

Hi RedOne. Actually I do use OpenXR :) The overlays you see here are only visible on the recording and not visible in my headset. But if you wanted, you can pin overlays in OpenXR with an app called Open Kneeboard App. Details for this and all my settings for iRacing, OpenXR & Nvidia CP are all available on the Immersive Racing Discord. Free to use! Link is in the video description or Chanel Page.

Thanks bud! I try and race hard but fair. Hopefully I'll see you out there!

Thanks mate. Appreciate the feedback.

In the Control Menu...scroll down and look for "Low Fuel Accept". Map it to a button. When the alarm comes up, hold for 2sec and it should vanish. Its really annoying in Quali when you cant see your delta.

@@TheVRRacer defo be doing this when I get home lol, thank you! It’s so annoying! Hated it in acc too

Thanks Ivan. Really appreciate that!! Glad you enjoy them.

Cheers man. Appreciate that!

Thanks mate.

Ah yes..#9. Good racing bud! I laughed louder than I'll admit at your bumper :)

The overlays in this video are only visible on the OBS recording, I cannot see them in VR. If you want to use overlays in VR, use an app called Open Kneeboard App. It can pin any open window in VR. Works with both OpenXR and SteamVR. Its super easy to use and doesnt need any additional apps to work. Here's a link: github.com/OpenKneeboard/Openkneeboard/releases/tag/v1.8.2

Thanks mate! At spa for the 6hr...that sounds awesome! Hope it was an amazing weekend. I watched most of it...the 46 BMW incident was very similar :)

Thanks! The overlays are from the Racelabs App. If you're using OpenXR for your Reverb (which I recommend), then the only way to pin overlays in VR is with Open Kneeboard App. Its an app used by DCS players to pin any window in VR. You can set up profiles for different cars too. These overlays are only visible on the recording as I dont use overlays really in VR as I find them distracting (except maybe the fuel usage overlay or Endurance events)

Thanks bud! Im using the HP Reverb G2.

I got real lucky in that race :) Im currently running the 3080 ti.

@@TheVRRacer ok great stuff ,the recording looks awesome

Thanks so much! Im glad you enjoy the videos. Your kind words come at a much needed time for me personally. Thanks again!

Thanks for the sub mate! The 4070ti Super is more than enough to run Q3 no issues. With 16BG VRAM you should be more than fine. One of our community members runs the 4080 super and he loves it....so it really comes down to how much you want to spend...in PC land, more is always more :)

Great video 👍🏽 can i ask how you get overlays to work with VR?

These overlays are only visible on the recording...I cant see them in-game. The only method I've seen work to get them in VR is to use "Open Kneeboard App". Its a program used by DCS players and can pin any window in VR. Ive pinned stream chat and Racelabs overlays in VR using this method. Edit:full app name

Thanks...Im currently using the HP Reverb G2.

@@TheVRRacer would you recommend that over other ones?

Sorry for slow response. I love my Reverb G2 but I wouldnt recommend it now. HP are getting out of the VR game and Microsoft is no longer supporting WMR. I use Win 10 instead of 11 so it doesnt affect me. I would recommend the Quest 3 with airlink cable. Excellent price for up to date features, Pancake lenses and the ability to run without a PC for those few party nights with friends :) Im looking at either that or the Big Screen Beyond...only due to the comfort it will provide for endurance racing...but the Q3 is my first choice. Hopefully later this year :) Edit: Typos...so many typos. I need a new keyboard :)

@@TheVRRacer thank you

Thank you so much! It really means a lot. Hopefully we'll see you on track soon!

I use a HP Reverb G2 so its an OBS recording of the WMR mirror. No stabilisation software used :)

I hold a locked 90FPS with settings higher than you see on this video. I lower them to streamline the bitrate for the encoder with overhead. With that CPU/GPU combo you should be able to run higher settings. Also just an FYI..NVMe's make a difference for VR too.

Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, the TV replay is recorded after the fact and added in post. To do it in one shot, you would need a 2nd PC and a 2nd iRacing acc. That PC would spectate and OBS on your main PC can overlay that capture as a external video source over IP (OBS NDI plugin). Also, a dual capture card system could work. Ive considered this for future live streams but for videos I dont mind recording after the fact as it gives me a chance to watch the race from a different perspective.

Welcome back! I use the paddle shift for the MX5. I also used stick seq for a long time but as soon as I switched I found I had better control over the car during the braking/turning phase.

@@TheVRRacer thanks. How about on the skippy? Is that the trend with other drivers aswell?

Im glad you like them. I enjoy making them :) All my settings are available on the Immersive Racing discord. Link is in the description. I continue to tinker and post my updated settings and try help others dial in their own VR.

I was thinking of going left at that moment....but the risk of spinning the #9 car was too high :) It would have been a shame after such great racing from everyone.

Hey Matt. The short answer in GPU scheduling optimisation. Its all about streamlining the bitrate from frame generation to the render..to the mirror..to the encoder. Remember...they not just all eating from the same pie...they're all using the same spoon :) All of my current and future recording settings are available on the Immersive Racing discord.

@@TheVRRaceris that how u actually see from your pov with the vr on? Can’t decide between g2 and quest 3

If you can afford the Quest3 go for it. The pancake lenses are eye tracking etc are amazing. Far better than a G2. That said...I love my G2. It has 4K displays (2160X2160) which hold up to todays VR headsets. The only issue is the small sweet spot due to the Fresnel lenses but FOVeated Rendring and CAS sharpening have greatly improved this. It looks even better in the headset than you see here. This is just the left eye image (stretched to 16:9).

@12ichie I bought a Quest 3 last week , overall I'm pretty impressed with it ... I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I keep playing with settings to get it just right .

@@TheVRRacer I'll have a look at your discord 👍🏽
