It's been a few months now since we moved into the new studio space, and we've had time to iron out some kinks and get things running smoothly. So today let's take a more detailed tour of the Sim Rig and Studio, how everything works and how we've overcome some of the challenges and limitations of the technology available.

Simply love the whole setup, also huge props to you for building this awesome double PC rig and not throwing it into a normal case and tossing it into a corner.

Will your setup is just wonderful. It's one of the most well built setup if not the best I've seen to date. And attention, I work in a TV production company, I' m an IT specialist hardware and network. The space, the lighting, the taste for materials, not to mention the well-chosen equipment, which is 5 stars. What can we say to thank you for the excellent content you have given us all these years. Accompanying its growth and investment has been a joy in addition to the super realistic videos. Who wouldn't want to one day sit on your Rig and do some laps... I would love to, but I'm a long way from Australia. I can only thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the commitment and effort. It is guaranteed my number 1 youtuber, and in a way a friend of my heart. A huge hug, many more successes and every day I'm here to follow the contents. Thank you Thank you from Portugal ❤🙏

Still don't get bored of seeing your studio tours. Amazing set up. Even though I've seen it X amount of times. But I do have a question for you. How much do you just jump on and play and do a race? Like what most people do I guess. Without actually necessarily making content and 'work' side of stuff.

@trevorjlewis 7 ай бұрын

awesome, does look incredible on the triple 65s. I have triple 49 running 4k and the interior of the car looks too narrow with the cage sitting too near to the centerline on my setup. Can you share your FOV settings please. Also if I remember correctly you are using a 4090 are you running that with Nvidia surround still at 11520x2160? I have AMD 6900xt and it struggles with hitting 60FPS with mostly high and some ultra settings. So I'm currently using the Simple Windows Runtime Editor to stretch the game across 3 screens each @ 3840x2160 without using eyefinity. Knowing what your graphics settings would be useful maybe to us other triple screen users, (although I'm impatiently waiting for my preferred VR version to come out).

I apologize if I've already reached out to you but I can't help but share... Audio is normally overlooked in the sim racing business. It's not at all cheap BUT have a look into the Smyth Research A16 Realiser. It can get complicated but the short story is, it 100% will accurately sim a 15.1.8 channel Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, or 13.1 Auro-3D surround system inside a pair of headphones. It will also allow for an external subwoofer (or two) to be attached as well for realistic sub and infrasub frequencies. It's not the gimmicky 7.1 surround sound headphones that Logitech or whoever push. This is a prosumer/professional device created by one of the founding members of DTS, James Smyth. I would be more than happy to walk you through it completely free of charge. I want to see sim racing pushed even further.

Great video, I'm impressed by your setup as always ! Most of your racing content is shot with a GoPro for the hyper-realistic effect, but do you capture your sim screens for content creation sometimes ? If yes, how do you achieve that ? The fact that there is no affordable displayport capture card accessible to anyone is a problem when you want to capture on another machine and keep your screens pluggled with a DP to enjoy high refresh rates, g-sync, ... Cloning the middle screen to an HDMI output is not really a solution as you'll have to sync the frequency of the outputs. So I can only see the solution of running OBS (or any capture software) on the same machine but at the cost of an overhead.

@boostedmedia Жыл бұрын

All the racing content is done with the GoPro 10.
