I still am primarily a Mac user, can't ever use Windows without it annoying me except for Work and Gaming (I have since built my own Sim Racing Triple Screen Gaming PC) Just a shame the FFB thing is a bit clunky, but by all means it's still usable and I'm sure you will enjoy iRacing once you have it all set up. I've always been a Mac guy, the first ever PC I bought was a Power Macintosh. It will take days, maybe weeks but it will make the world of difference. I started out cranking the FFB up because I thought more is better - not the case, less is more! There is much more adjustment to be had on a PC Sim, take your time finding the right feel for you. You will need to find a FFB setting that does not 'clip', once you are a member of iRacing use the forums to search for the helpful threads about FFB clipping and why it's important to dial it out. Oh, and the FFB is way, wayyy stronger on iRacing. Just takes some getting used to with the lower (therefore sensitive) direction turns. Having the FFB is more important than degrees of rotation. Go for FFB obviously which isn't a massive issue as you will rarely need to do full lock turns. The only issue is you either have to have FFB *or* 900 Degrees of rotation with that Free the Wheel FFB tweak. It will not "break" your wheel so you can switch back to GT6, don't worry. If anything it helped me out as I learnt how to feel the car sliding more as that was the only effect I could feel through the FFB-less wheel.Īfter seeing a forum post about the FFB tweak I gave it a go and it was obviously much better with the FFB.
Took a while to adjust to but was comfortable pretty quick. It had wheel resistance on my G27 but no FFB, which wasn't too bad actually. I just saw a "3 months free" offer for iRacing and thought "What the hell?! I'll just give it a go!" I downloaded it and hit the track right away. Look at the schedules and buy maybe three a season (iRacing gives you multi buy discounts when you buy so many things at once) and learn them individually as iRacing is all about practice, practice, practice!Īnyway, back to the Mac. Don't feel like you have to buy every track right away, it can get expensive that way. The GT3 is the most popular series (road side of things) but I also like the IMSA Sports cars series (multi class! Hope you know what a blue flag is lol!) as well as the RUF* Cup (*Porsche). It's tough in the Rookie class, you will get some Maldonado's (but no where near as many as on GT Online) but once you progress up the ladder and race in higher classes it gets more evenly matched and you will have some fantastic close wheel to wheel racing. No other game or sim comes close to that glorious feeling that you are racing, no buggy or stupid AI, just pure racing. You will hopefully love it, can't beat it's competitiveness and amazing community. Hi Tijee, I've did exactly what you are asking.įirst things first, iRacing is a *serious* step up from GT.
