Looking good! I just picked up my first flightsim. I really feel like I’ve been missing out.

Thank you. You should the Arkansas DLC for American Truck Sim is really good.

It’s always a heated debate. My son has a quest 1 and 2 and he’s always trying to convert me. I just dont think ill ever be really into it. Im sure it has its place just not with my setup atm.

With VR all my attempts at a cab recreation are wasted.

I dont think ill ever be into VR. Im not a fan of the headsets. I dont like not being able to see outside of the game. I feel the same way about gaming with headphones though. I dont like being isolated from the real world.

If you would like to see the Mic in action in game. I did a video using it with OBS. I havent done much with the convoy side outside of just making sure it worked.

Thank you its been updated.

Thank you! It’s a lot of fun I love these truck sim games.

I have found so far as long as I stick to vanilla things have been pretty good. I was able to throw in a few trailer and a couple trucks so far. The new UI has been really nice. I have been tinkering with the new graphics features which has been great.

I’ve been thinking about building my own ffb wheel. I want to first focus on cab/dash recreation

Sure. It’s just a button box I created for American truck simulator so that I can have things like a keyed ignition and various buttons to map for in game use. Utilizing a old Xbox 360 controller I was able to attach leads to the buttons pads and use the controller in place of a USB encoder. I run simhub with a custom dash from my phone and the lighting is for ambiance and function. My cab is kinda dark so there are times where having a light is very handy.

Honestly the most clever solution I saw was a guy sat his chair wheels in some shoes. The soles grip good to go

I have really enjoyed the additions.

Will do thank you.

The truck is the Kenworth K100E by MrOverFloater. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1815959194&searchtext=k100 The paint job is Oldies pack Sludig https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2926276697

I really like mine. Its comfortable for long races. I did brace the chair so at the moment mine doesnt have the rocking effect. Here are some pics for a couple months ago when I got my g29. https://imgur.com/gallery/9kkFi4T

I really like it and I think I could hide all the guts underneath the chair when its all said and done.

Honestly I have a Poang chair from ikea and I was thinking about using windshield wiper motors like this fella did. https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/ikea-1-5-dof-ultra-comfort.5602/ I think it would be a great entry level start then Ill maybe move on to actuators and big boy stuff.

Man thats cool. I want to build my own wheel too. I think once I determine which motor to use Ill be golden just hard to decide. Im hoping to build a motion rig also in the future.

I dont know how VA would work as the left and right monitor but I have a single curved VA as my primary and two IPS as my left and right and outside of color matching its not too shabby. I like it. I’m soon going to be replacing the IPS monitors so I have three identical screens. I have tested the viewing angles and I dont believe Ill have any issues.
