Woow, what a read. Its very exciting! My concern is if im not computer programming inclined, is it worth buying and wiring up with out the full effects?
I havnt looked into what simhub can do yet, but spending the money honey and then what?
Have these kick arse exciters that arnt to their full potential?
Like what is the solution to my problem?
Will the guide be out soon or is it you play with it all your self?
I messaged mr latte, before i read all the 23 pages, but i would hate to be a bother after reading all thats gone on with that bloke.
I think his done his fair share.
I found it sad that it felt like the energy had to leave the room....
What can we do next as a group?
SimHub doesn’t have all effects for GT7. Some of the effects leave something to be desired. But it’s enough to add to the experience. I do recommend just buying what is suggested or shall I say “MANDATORY” simply because you should then be able to ask somebody to send you their SimHub presets and be one your way to racing rather than tweaking.
I have “less than and ideal setup” and I think it’s great. In fact I was told to just sell all my stuff and start again (I joined the group after I had purchased everything and had a plan of what I was going to do, I simply joined to get input on the best way to mount my tt25’s). I won’t be selling or upgrading because I’m perfectly satisfied… still… So that tells me if you have the cash, just drop it on whatever the recommended hardware is if it’s within your budget. There isn’t really a clear list of hardware and files to download a far as I could find. Nor is there a short concise guide. There should be it’s quite simple.
*** I will say this, when you’re inputting the numbers in the SimHub to open ports or whatever for GT7, seperate only by a comma, not a comma and then a space. That’s the only issue I ran into. Also save your presets because sometime SimHub messes up and you lose all your settings, so be sure to save them, not only effects but your shaker settings too.
I don’t care what anybody in here says, it WILL work with “incorrect hardware” it’s not incorrect it’s just not the hardware Mr latte recommends, and in all fairness that hardware keeps getting swapped for other hardware anyway so it’s constantly changing. People have purchased the recommended only to have the recommended changed so I can understand why some people would get frustrated with that. This is the best… months later, actually no this is the best that other stuff pales in comparison.
There is definitely a my way or the highway vibe in this group which is too bad since everyone is just trying to get something working to add to their racing experience.
I played on a rec league soccer team and the attitude there was great, let’s just go have some fun. Nobody told each other which cleats to buy or how to play etc. If anybody had questions they asked and everybody was very friendly and non judgmental.
This is a thread created for people wanting to enhance their experience of an $80 PlayStation video game. Keep that in mind, a video game. It’s a decent sim but it’s not the best so only expect so much out of GT7. Naturally you’re going to have all kinds of different levels of commitment and expectations for adding haptic feedback. I think everyone should be welcome. “Your hardware isn’t ideal but you could try this…”, would be a welcoming approach but that is beyond some people’s capabilities when they’re hiding behind a computer screen.
Good luck, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it when you have it setup whatever your budget allows for.
