Welcome to the VR club! I love it when people try out iRacing on VR for the first time. It reminds me of when I first tried it. It's such a mind blowing experience.
Nice one chap... But i must add when you have VR and you get a motion system that marries up. like i did a few years ago.. then there's no going back... all the races i did were in VR and later with the SFX-100
@@JuiceSkyy I have a 6DOF rig and I can absolutely confirm. VR with motion is the ultimate experience. I love giving test rides to people who have never experienced VR or motion before. If you're not one of the unlucky ones who get dizzy from it, it's amazing.
It is really cool to see someone, particularly a seasoned vet of simming try it in VR for the first time. Their reactions are priceless. I think most if not all of us who are VR enthusiast can totally relate in that "awe factor". It brings a smile to my face when I see that in someone who tries it for the first time.😊😊
I know I'm late, but congratulations! I still use triples for games that do not allow VR support, but VR is how I mainly play Sims. You are going to have so much fun
Even if people claim that monitors are better (well a triple screen setup at least), I would not give up VR for a few tenths of a second or a couple hundred iRating. I'm not racing for money, I'm racing for fun and the immersion is unmatched.
Yeah, I even prefer my old Rift S over my 1440p triples,...when it works 😁The rift S has a displayport cable, so I don't have to deal with compression artifacts and things like that. So despite the low resolution, when I can hit the frames, it's an amazing experience.
@@mementomori4972 It feels like PCVR is in a bit of a renaissance right now. Valve is rumored to be working on a Index 2. BigScreen is rumored to be working on a Beyond 2. The Crystal Light has brought high quality PCVR to an affordable price. Pimax is working on a G60 airlink to provide the bandwidth and latency of DisplayPort over a wireless connection. Things are looking good.
I've played plenty of racing games over the years, but never really was too big into them. Been playing VR 3-4 years, and a coworker kept telling me to try Assetto Corsa. I was so blown away I had a setup within a week. Took a few months to learn how to drift, and I'm still pretty green, but there is just no gaming experience like it.
I picked up the PS VR adaptor a few weeks ago … haven’t managed to get the settings quiet right yet, but you’re so right about the ability to look deep into the corner, it’s a game changer.
I had a facial interface for my quest 2 with a built in fan. It was a game changer for comfort and fixed one of the biggest complaints many people have about VR.
@@blackwng I just tried wearing my Arctis 7 over the S3 and it works, because they go over the thinnest part of the strap. I had to try, because since I got the Aeropex Aftershockz I never really use the big headphones anymore. The sound is better on the Arctis for sure, but the Aeropex are so comfortable that it tips the balance for me.
VR certainly is fun. I tried out various cars but driving the Formula Vee at somewhere like Oran Park took it to another level. I spent the first couple of laps laughing. You're low to the ground in a small car with such an open cockpit it's almost like you're flying on a magic carpet. Trying out a flight sim is next...
I'm happy to see finally people realize the power of VR which is beyond of any flat screen content, try to play it on rtx 4080 or 4090 with highest graphics possible.
Hey Lorenzo. Love the video. I’ve been on VR using the Samsung odyssey + for 4 years and love it. That being said, it’s time for an upgrade. I’m going to to pick up a quest 3 today. Looking forward to it as well as your long term review and what ever settings you ended up settling on. 🙂
VR is an amazing experience and is so immersive, I'm glad you mentioned the graphics though. For me there are 2 issues I cant fix and wish you all the luck entering the deep rabbit hole you're about to discover, one is the shimmering on safety fences and the other is the lack of detail in distant objects. I think its the limitations of the Quest 3 , but would so interested to see what you come up. Some people say Virtual desktop works better but I spent so much time tinkering I gave up for now.
the shimmering is Anti Aliasing from your GPU settings, the lack of detail in distant objects is your bitrate and sharpening not being there. try improving those points and come back with a reply :)
You’re going to better quality using the link cable. It’s night and day if and when you use the link cable you need to make some adjustments in the oculus debug tool. There are plenty videos on you tube for the link cable And the settings for sim racing. Also AMS2 is the best looking sim in VR out of the box with no mods.
@@LDFR it’s something about racing Sims as well with the link cable. Just about every other VR game I played there’s not a meaning for different between the link cable, steam VR or virtual desktop.
i use the Quest 3 too. i just use open XR with Link cable and it works fine. About the detail: Jimmy Broadbend tried this car too in VR and says, it looks exactly like the real one. i remember my first drive was in an LMP2 and i literally tried to push the buttons on the virtual wheel ^^
Setup is key to enjoy VR on the quest 3. I run mine wired using OpenXR... I limit my quest to 80fps because when using the quest that's a great balance between graphic fadelity and frames. You will want to use 800+ bitrate mode using the debug tool or oculus tray tool. Also, disable ASW mode if you run a decent computer 4070+ you shouldn't need it.
@@LDFR yeah, it takes a little time to get the settings maximized for your gpu/cpu combo. Just think of it with the quest 3 as squeezing as much information through the pipe as you can (the pipe thickness is the bitrate you set). You can only get soo much through it at one time so you have to balance the framerate with quality... Go too hard on one ie: 120hz, and you'll lose some graphic fadelity. Go too high on the graphics IE: super sampling too high, or trying to push more pixels than the quest can handle, your frame rate will have to be turned down. That's why 80fps is a good setting because you can turn the graphics up a bit and it will still feel smooth.
Nice vídeo dude! Looking forward to see you graphics tweaking and I’m still struggling to get mines working! OpenXR VS OCULLOS Definitely cable will improve quiete a bit your experience!
Welcome to VR mate!!! Please please please do yourself a favour and give AMS2 a go in VR. At the very least, it will show you one of the best experiences as its very well tuned for VR. Honestly, if you do... please do another video of your first impressions of AMS2 in VR. Would love to see what you think. 😊
playing around with the Quest tool you can get bitrates up to 600mbps and with other settings in that "mode tool" the fidelity just gets so much better, the cable on stock settings is even worse than wifi at times. but it can do so much more.
Hi. Thx for nice video.. Sorry maybe I ask stupid.. but the picture we see in the video. Is that how it looks in the vr or is it captured from the screen? Hope you understand my bad English 😅 I’m curious how godt the picture is in vr 🙏🏼
Graphics are amazing and really good, but you need a good PC, set the resolution to 1.5x (max) and 90Hz, and above all, use a Link cable connected to PC, with wifi you cant get good graphics and performance.
Since I got the Quest, I also got a new PC, and can now run it in 120hz 1.5 resolution - massive difference from the experience I had in this video. I use Meta Quest Link. Once I get all my settings right I'll upload that in another video!
@@PITAH1 well i had 6900xt 2 years ago and amd its not the best choice for VR at that time maybe that chanced now with the drivers. But i can tell you that even with 4090 you have to do some compromises to get 120 hz :)) So i run ACC on 90 hz but with crystal clear graphics on Primax Crystal lite
@@LDFR Yeah, it seems smoother at 120hz 1.5, looks better with 1.7 but at a price, resolution was better with 90hz and 1.5 but I got lower fps (around 45), with 120hz 1.5 I get stable 60
@@LDFR - agree with @pitah1 , soon as AMS2 drops the 1.6 patch you should give it a go. The handeling on the those updated cars is pretty good and the VR experience is amazing.
The graphics will definitely be less sharp than with a monitor, but I noticed at the beginning of the video you had glasses on. If your prescription is for distance, that could be your problem because in VR your view is set in the distance. Try it with your glasses on and see if that helps, if so, your best bet would be a set of prescription lenses for the Quest. I get mine from VR Wave, they're fantastic. You'll have to play around with the settings to find the best balance between graphics and framerate. 72 hz doesn't bother me, so I set Virtual Desktop to 72 hz and crank the graphics to ultra and use the h.264+ codec and run it at 500 mpbs. Also make sure you have the snapdragon superscaling checked in the streaming options in Virtual Desktop. Good luck!
I'm running a GT-BE98 Pro - BE30000 about 6-7 feet from my rig. Wireless isn't "bad" but I can't run the same bitrate as wired. I would probably run wireless for an endurance so I could hotswap batteries in the s3 pro, but for best visuals -- wired is the way, for now.
Try a wired connection and go through the developer mode options to improve the graphics quality. Also the Oculus debug tool will clear things up with just a few options. Dirt Rally 2.0 is my favorite. Have fun man!
Ich fahre schon länger AMS2 und ACC. Beide wirklich klasse. Der M4 auf der Nordschleife in ACC ist genial. Quest 3 auf RTX4080. Die Grafik ist toll wenn man die Schatten ausschaltet. Die Auflösung der Brille kann man auch recht hoch fahren um ein wirklich geiles Bild zu bekommen. Aber was richtig geil wird denke ich ist Asetto Corsa EVO. Darauf freue ich mich richtig. Könnte der Gamechanger in VR Racing werden. Hoffentlich ist bald Januar.
I've only recently stopped getting nauseous... I couldn't go for more than a few corners, sucks the fun out of it. I was also disapointed with the performance I was getting out of my 1080ti. Went back to single screen for a while but now that the nausea is gone I was willing to spend more time tunning the settings and I agree it's hard to go back to 2d like everyone has mentioned.
How many hours can you drive with the quest 3 while using the cable? I sold my quest 2 in order upgrade but with the 2hr battery it's useless for endurance.
I haven’t yet done any sessions that were long enough for my headset battery to die. Anyway, yesterday I noticed that I had about 80% battery left after a session of about an hour
@StijnVanOnacker thanks ill see if I can find one of those cables locally I have spotted them here and there but hadn't seen anyone show the battery charges enough while in use with those cables.
@@StijnVanOnacker Thanks for the tips Stijn, those are gold. Never thought of turning off the wifi. And a Link Cable with a charger port is going to be my next purchase for VR. Mind sharing which one you use?
@@Kevin-vg5uw i have one were I can plug a phone charger in. I know you also have cables with usb A and usb C connector, don't know if these can keep the battery full
same here , just started. which settings you use? i have a 4070super and i'm struggling to undesrstand the best trade off due to the bad iracing graphic engine....
You definitely bought the wrong strap. The BoboVR M3 Pro (or the S3 if you want cooling built in) is the most comfortable strap for VR. I'd never play a racing or flight sim on flat screen ever again and I started with CV1 way back in 2017, which was much worse graphics.
I saw you upgraded to a 4070 ti super but for this video, what was your system? I am contemplating should I do 4070 ti super or 4080 super or 4090. I also own the quest 3 on a 4060 is horrible
@@LDFR ahh I see! Thanks for replying! Any recommendation if you think 4070 ti super was an upgrade you are satisfied with for VR? Or wished it was a higher card?
@@azharhirani The 4070 ti super does the job and even does it to a good standard. I run high-ish settings and get 90fps in VR on iRacing - you can see what the experience is like in my most recent uploads. That said, you can never have enough GPU for VR. Go as high as you can afford, but don't go below 4070 ti super is my recommendation mate.

Looks fun, i used to doend a fortune keeping an up to date pc for simulators ( not vr back then ), now i just want to buy a system that works so not a pc, I really fancy vr though but seems like a 4090 plus a decent system is really needed costing a few thousand is required atm. You would think cloud gaming could fill this void where people want a good visual vr experience without having to buy and configure such a machine
Wish I would've looked in to the Quest 3 before I bought my triples - could've saved the money for the stand, monitors, cables etc. I have no interest in flatscreen/triples for sim racing after VR
@@chinwikhalwi3232 i feel different, instead I play longer with VR than flatscreen. I enjoy it more, i get bored with flatscreen... most of my games now on PC are VR games and modded to VR flatscreen games
Nice video! Based on my experience (2 years) after you try VR simracing in 2d its no more a option. With the current hardware (4080/4090) and some thickening you can really make it look better than the monitor . I personally have Primax Crystal light and RTX4090. and can say that Acc looks sharper than a high end 34 ultrawide 1440p monitor.
@@irpk239 usually in game setting for anti aliasing. The type of AA will depend on what the game offers (TAA, MSAA, FXAA, SSAA, SMAA). If the game offers several types look them up and see which is most appropriate for your system, or simply try each one and see. Increasing the resolution output to the headset can help if your system can handle it, this is found in your headset software often as a percentage.
@@irpk239 for anti aliasing in game, if there are several types then try them out and see which works best for your system. For super sampling, that's found on your headset software and is usually expressed as a percentage.. From what I've heard, apparently turning off FSR also helps with jaggies and shimmering in iracing.

The glasses are not prescription, they are blue light filter glasses for eye strain and headaches, so I am not the best person to ask about that. What I can tell you though is that the visor can be adjusted to be comfortable with glasses, so you can easily use it with your glasses if that’s the problem.
Welcome to VR buddy! When you say the graphics are not good enough, I wonder if you mean the resolution. Obviously, iRacing doesn't have the best graphics. Maybe make sure the resolution is as high as yiur system can handle. You can look in the iRacing settings and make sure the resolution is higher and also in the settings of Virtual Desktop. If you want the best looking and performing sim in VR, you have to try Automobilista 2. The physics are decent, but the graphics and performance is out of this world in VR.
Do not strive for the level of graphics you are used to with your monitor and PC set up they will always be better. However VR for driving sims is the only way.
The Quest 3 is not a native PCVR headset. So yes it will not look nearly as well or play as well on a PC. Even though I have a beefy PC when using the quest 3 it would be a shaky burry mess.
So sad that you start VR SimRace in iRacing ... Almost any other Sim Race Game it looks better than iRacing, ... try Automobilista 2 for example. Congrats on going VR
How can you play racing sims in flatscreen, you could have a 100 monitors, and its not even 10% close to the experience in VR ... it is completely and utterly on another planet.
After using it I’d say it’s about 30% not 10% with a good setup on a simulator.. The only time VR comes to play is breaking zones and apexes. Otherwise it’s pretty flat if you not count the interiors. The trouble with pcvr is the setup process and things gong tits up often without touching a single setting. Pcvr feels like an alpha not even a beta project overall. I love playing games but since purchasing quest 3 I often skip it completely because of the hassle and lottery associated with it. Hell I’ve not even finished HL:A the very reason I got the quest in the first place.

What graphics card are you playing on? I have an old gtx 1080 ti. I don't know if it will look that good on mine.
@@Jerzy50 4070 ti super mate
Pimax crystal light è spettacolare
Share your specs, I am running a RX 6800 XT/ i5 12600 and I just picked up a Quest 2 on the cheap and I am excited!
Awesome!!! Enjoy it! I’m running an I7 14700 and 4070 TI super
I've only recently stopped getting nauseous... I couldn't go for more than a few corners, sucks the fun out of it. I was also disapointed with the performance I was getting out of my 1080ti. Went back to single screen for a while but now that the nausea is gone I was willing to spend more time tunning the settings and I agree it's hard to go back to 2d like everyone has mentioned.
Are you using this in conjunction with your PC setup, or is this just the Meta Quest and controllers that you are using?
With my pc!
Haha he’s buzzing his beeps off haha😎😎
ive got the pimax crystal light which looks twice as good and it still doesnt come close to a monitor
Definitely a sweet upgrade and huge compared with the single screen. Enjoy!
Thanks mate :)
Nothing beats GT7 on the PSVR2
How many hours can you drive with the quest 3 while using the cable? I sold my quest 2 in order upgrade but with the 2hr battery it's useless for endurance.
I haven’t yet done any sessions that were long enough for my headset battery to die. Anyway, yesterday I noticed that I had about 80% battery left after a session of about an hour
I never run out of battery. Just 2 things: turn off wifi in headset if you play with linkcable, and use a linkcable with charger connection
@StijnVanOnacker thanks ill see if I can find one of those cables locally I have spotted them here and there but hadn't seen anyone show the battery charges enough while in use with those cables.
@@StijnVanOnacker Thanks for the tips Stijn, those are gold. Never thought of turning off the wifi. And a Link Cable with a charger port is going to be my next purchase for VR. Mind sharing which one you use?
@@Kevin-vg5uw i have one were I can plug a phone charger in. I know you also have cables with usb A and usb C connector, don't know if these can keep the battery full
Is it just the recording or does the Image feels a bit shaky?
It's the recording, all my latest videos are stabilized!
same here , just started. which settings you use? i have a 4070super and i'm struggling to undesrstand the best trade off due to the bad iracing graphic engine....
It’s a game changer I have the meta quest 3 it’s great.
You definitely bought the wrong strap. The BoboVR M3 Pro (or the S3 if you want cooling built in) is the most comfortable strap for VR. I'd never play a racing or flight sim on flat screen ever again and I started with CV1 way back in 2017, which was much worse graphics.
This strap feels comfortable to me, but I'll definitely experiment with others as I've found all kinds in the second hand market here :)
Next up isolate your rig from the floor and add a Buttkicker PRO
You definitly not lie, its your first time. You cant speak 🎉🎉🎉
I saw you upgraded to a 4070 ti super but for this video, what was your system? I am contemplating should I do 4070 ti super or 4080 super or 4090. I also own the quest 3 on a 4060 is horrible
On this video I was on a 3070 / Ryzen 5 3600x
@@LDFR ahh I see! Thanks for replying! Any recommendation if you think 4070 ti super was an upgrade you are satisfied with for VR? Or wished it was a higher card?
@@azharhirani The 4070 ti super does the job and even does it to a good standard. I run high-ish settings and get 90fps in VR on iRacing - you can see what the experience is like in my most recent uploads. That said, you can never have enough GPU for VR. Go as high as you can afford, but don't go below 4070 ti super is my recommendation mate.
You need to map a camera reset button as you aren’t sat right in the car
Does nowadays anyone actually watch the full video before jumping to the comments?
@@mementomori4972does anyone check how they’ve written a reply before replying? (You believe you meant to write ‘nowadays does’) - see I can be sarcastic too. Yes he has a ‘button’ mapped, but clearly not very well. He’s not positioned correctly in the car.
@@FruitLoop2020 No, that's not what I meant to write. Instead of wasting my time suffering your insecurities, I will just let this here speak for itself. 1) "You need to map a camera reset button as you aren’t sat right in the car". 2) "Yes he has a ‘button’ mapped, but clearly not very well.

Looks fun, i used to doend a fortune keeping an up to date pc for simulators ( not vr back then ), now i just want to buy a system that works so not a pc,
I really fancy vr though but seems like a 4090 plus a decent system is really needed costing a few thousand is required atm.
You would think cloud gaming could fill this void where people want a good visual vr experience without having to buy and configure such a machine
im not sure, wouldnt cloud gaming be a bit too much like input lag for vr?
any issues getting it running? how did you do it i wanna do it with my Q3 also
Been playing SIM racing in VR for over a year now, i can no longer go back to Flatscreen.
That's understandable!
Wish I would've looked in to the Quest 3 before I bought my triples - could've saved the money for the stand, monitors, cables etc. I have no interest in flatscreen/triples for sim racing after VR
After use many times you feeling borred and get back to flat screen
@@chinwikhalwi3232 for me never, been playing VR for over a year now. Flight games, shooters, sim racing etc
@@chinwikhalwi3232 i feel different, instead I play longer with VR than flatscreen. I enjoy it more, i get bored with flatscreen... most of my games now on PC are VR games and modded to VR flatscreen games
Nice video! Based on my experience (2 years) after you try VR simracing in 2d its no more a option. With the current hardware (4080/4090) and some thickening you can really make it look better than the monitor . I personally have Primax Crystal light and RTX4090. and can say that Acc looks sharper than a high end 34 ultrawide 1440p monitor.
Best combination! And in some months Crystal Super with Rtx 5090! And AC Evo
I get fence, rails, and other flickers at a distance. What setting needs changing? Anyone?
Ant aliasing is usually the setting for jaggies and shimmering. Other than that super sampling.
@alanharrington Thank you. The one on my video card or in Iracing?
@@irpk239 usually in game setting for anti aliasing. The type of AA will depend on what the game offers (TAA, MSAA, FXAA, SSAA, SMAA). If the game offers several types look them up and see which is most appropriate for your system, or simply try each one and see. Increasing the resolution output to the headset can help if your system can handle it, this is found in your headset software often as a percentage.
@@irpk239 for anti aliasing in game, if there are several types then try them out and see which works best for your system. For super sampling, that's found on your headset software and is usually expressed as a percentage.. From what I've heard, apparently turning off FSR also helps with jaggies and shimmering in iracing.

Get a better headstrap and remove the darkening shield for better experience
Thanks for the tips!
Good morning bro, it s been a long sleep.
Ahahah cheers mate :) better late than never!
i have a pc and vr im planing on geting a rig soon should i get 3 monitors our stick with my quest 2
Get a quest 3!
Is it ok without your glasses? It's the only thing that puts me off buying one.
The glasses are not prescription, they are blue light filter glasses for eye strain and headaches, so I am not the best person to ask about that. What I can tell you though is that the visor can be adjusted to be comfortable with glasses, so you can easily use it with your glasses if that’s the problem.
Driving in V.R. is necessary immersion. Can't go back to flat-screen racing again. When I try flat-screen, it's just that...FLAT.
I agree!
Please try GT7 with psvr2 and ps5 pro
Is he using it with a pc?
Yes!
I could have sworn you have a 32" screen
If you haven’t already, try an open wheel car.
Its your "first time" yet you have already swapped the headstrap?
Yep! Bought the elite strap and the headset at the same time and immediately switched the default one out :)
Try Dirt Rally 2.0, enjoy!
Welcome to VR buddy! When you say the graphics are not good enough, I wonder if you mean the resolution. Obviously, iRacing doesn't have the best graphics. Maybe make sure the resolution is as high as yiur system can handle. You can look in the iRacing settings and make sure the resolution is higher and also in the settings of Virtual Desktop. If you want the best looking and performing sim in VR, you have to try Automobilista 2. The physics are decent, but the graphics and performance is out of this world in VR.
I tried some new settings after this first run and I'm already liking the graphics a lot more! But I'm still experimenting
Once you go VR there is no going back!
I see that now!
GT7 on psvr2 had me addicted.
get a Pimax crystal for best picture
Do not strive for the level of graphics you are used to with your monitor and PC set up they will always be better. However VR for driving sims is the only way.
Yeah I definitely don't expect to be able to achieve that, but even getting somewhat close would be nice!
Welcome to vr try every thing
Valve Deckard
I need a 4090😢
Same!
Turn your mirrors on.
Music is intruding on your dialogue
Thanks for the feedback!
The Quest 3 is not a native PCVR headset. So yes it will not look nearly as well or play as well on a PC. Even though I have a beefy PC when using the quest 3 it would be a shaky burry mess.
Haha, no, no, no.😂😂😂
No it's not. All VR headsets move with your head, what do you mean not a native headset ?
Next ; Half life alyx
motion sickness
I didn't get any fortunately!
Why were the graphics so bad?
try asseto corsa. Its just like this game but the graophics are on par with real life
So sad that you start VR SimRace in iRacing ... Almost any other Sim Race Game it looks better than iRacing, ... try Automobilista 2 for example. Congrats on going VR
Thanks mate, I'll try other titles when I get the chance :) iRacing is my main sim for now!
@@LDFR Yes, but Visuals/Graphics on VR it make big difference, try it and you will see.
Vr is the future of gaming, flat screen sucks compared lol
There is miles better graphical vr games then this.
How can you play racing sims in flatscreen, you could have a 100 monitors, and its not even 10% close to the experience in VR ... it is completely and utterly on another planet.
After using it I’d say it’s about 30% not 10% with a good setup on a simulator.. The only time VR comes to play is breaking zones and apexes. Otherwise it’s pretty flat if you not count the interiors. The trouble with pcvr is the setup process and things gong tits up often without touching a single setting. Pcvr feels like an alpha not even a beta project overall. I love playing games but since purchasing quest 3 I often skip it completely because of the hassle and lottery associated with it. Hell I’ve not even finished HL:A the very reason I got the quest in the first place.
