GT7 & PSVR2

[Lomic]

@Lomic and other with wooden frame setup. If you want to give it a car feel, I recommend subwoofer carpet glued to the wood structure. It gives a nice automobile feel.

Thing is my rig does not have a floor, what I am seing under if my parquet floor. I may do something for the plywood under the pedals.

and ps5 pro (960$)

PS5 Pro is 960$ now ??? (with taxes I hope)

A floor make it a lot easer to put carpet on.
PS5 pro, 960$ Canadian is the regular price before taxes, was 830 on boxing day.

We had it at 20% off in the UK (which is $770 Canadian) - very tempting

Broken PSVR2! for some reason that side flexes more during expand and contract

Drilled 2 sets of holes and used tie wraps good so far in tension

Update - The first fix w just tie wraps flexed in and out and I was concerned about the cable that runs along there

So added a piece of lego to stiffen it. The join doesn’t lie flat when contracted so can’t bond it. But when stretched out the tile keeps it flat

PD didn’t add any message in the Power Pack for VR users, and the reason I imagine doesn’t look good at all.

In the Power Pack we now have Sarah repeatedly saying “X is the leader now” during a race. Or “X ahead / behind you has pitted”, or "you need to change your tires".

Adding a simple message like “you are nn seconds behind / ahead of X” when passing the boxes would have been trivial, but a huge improvement for VR users and a sign that PD still remembers us.

They chose not to do it, which to me suggests they may have dropped VR support completely and, more worryingly, that VR may not even exist in GT8.

Hopefully I’m wrong. Any thoughts?

That’s quite a conclusion based on that.

It would be good if they could be audio announcement - which would take some time to procure.

I expect GT8 would be working towards a PSVR3 - Kaz has shown it quite a bit of love and it has had a lot of positive feedback. So I don’t see why they would U-turn on this just because no new features came to VR in the power-pack.

Personally I don’t think we’ll see any more development in GT7 and VR other than fixes for things like PSSR.

I certainly hope that to be true. To @Met Entso comments though, I agree with him that it is extremely disappointing that there were new VR enhancements with Spec III and the Powerpack such as improved HUD lap/competitor data.

By the time GT8 comes around I expect to be retired and if there is no VR love for PS6 then by then I will be investing in a kick-ass PC set up and will be PC/VR sim racing instead in my lazy retired years...

Just to answer this:

I’m sure that video isn’t accurate, I’m just trying to guage the resolution because all the videos I’ve seen are super high definition. I’ve heard many times it’s more like 1080p in the headset

From my eyes through my glasses in the headset on PS5 Pro, the vision is much improved from when PSVR2 debuted. It's very clear. The old screen door resolution is gone on PS5 Pro. Pretty close to a tv screen. Again, from my eyes.
