Paul, people replied to your earlier grumble but we can't help you if you don't give any information. It runs like pants is not really a diagnosis lol

Should run ok with that Paul. Things like shadows and mirrors need to be turned down, what about resolution scale, what have you got that on. There is a thread about running smooth and fps.

First few laps on Silverstone in the Bently with the Hotlap challenge:

+++ Oh wow the steering feel and feedback, it's just incredibly tactile on the TX458 wheel, as intuitive as a real car on track at Silverstone. No higher praise I can give than that, just fabulous.

--- Oculus VR now looks awful, a real step backwards and I think they'll get quite a few comments about this. i ran the previous build earlier today and all was fine. The leaderboards loading in heavily impacted VR performance, the screen started flickering and jumping, and only a restart of the event solved this. The leaderboards may not be working at the moment though so this might also be the reason VR performance returned on restart.

? The leaderboards for the Hotlap event loaded in after a few laps and appeared to be working, now they've disappeared again. Not desperately or unexpected important but noticeable.

I run it on a 3570k, R9 380 and 8GB of ram. Almost everything on MED settings and resolution scale at 80%: rock solid 60fps with not more than 23 opponents, 80 if I'm running in hotlap mode.
And it looks great tho!

You might have to check if the settings have changed, same happened with 0.6, once back with the previous settings VR was back to normal.

Only 5.5? Yes! I was afraid it would be a mammoth-sized download like 40GB or something...

Anyone else getting regular drop-outs from the ACC server? I'm getting the little yellow dot in the bottom of the menus an awful lot!

Had a quick blast in various cars/tracks and the rating system said I'd kept losing connection.

Guessing it will settle down once everyone has updated and the initial rush is over.

Just had a massive fatal error in Monza server

'' Added Career game mode
Includes two seasons, including introductory test sessions and an introduction to Sprint and Endurance racing in a car of your choice.''

I do hope this do not mean career mode will only be two seasons...

Not even going to try unless proper triple screen support is there. I bought it day one, believing that Kunos had made the ultimate sim, but the poor engine choice seemingly has f..cked that up...
I have put (apparently) 9 hrs...probably not only driving time was taking into account, because I feel nausea coming up after 10-15 minutes at most, which is mostly the same (for me) time I can use VR.
And Kunos does not seem to care, because triples - to them - is mostly a niche thing.

So, I'll stick to Ilja's (and Co) optimised AC and other triple screen supporting sims.
Shelved ACC until (if ever) triple support (without the use of a super computer) arrives.
If not, I regard my early access as a donation to Kunos to produce a 'decent' successor...
Just my (and I am' pretty sure a lot of other guys) 2 cts.
