I am sad. Took my dog to the office. I am less sad.

Yeah, it’s a show. But the message resonates.

So I was very much on the fence about buying a super mOLED. I recently tried one but promptly returned it as the lens quality wasn’t great (image was super dark) and IPD wasn’t working.
I have a UW that I got when my 50PPD broke its strap. I now have the 50PPD as a backup but wanted to eke out more performance. Used u/no6969el .ini file and that helped optimize my setup.
Anyway I then saw a beta for sboys3 and wanted to try it out but didn’t want to rock the boat. With no6969el encouragement I setup the sboys3 driver last night but it wasn’t working well. Initially my FPS was stuck at 45fps, the image quality was horrid, stutters everywhere. He’s been so responsive to my DMs and helping me to dial in and troubleshoot. It got late and I’m sure he fell asleep lol. I Gave up and went back to Pimax play last night.
This morning, checked the discord and it was pointed out to me that I was running close to a 500% resolution between the EVO Super Sample percentage (jacked this to 1000 not knowing wtf it did), steamVR 150%.
Put steamVR to 100%, EVO super sample to 500. Left the Width and Height render resolution at 1 and 0.9
MY GOD. The image quality was so much better vs Pimax play. The colors pop more and the blacks are deeper. But the performance???
IRacing: Super Formula at Mugello
Last night on this track with Pimax play, I was getting anywhere from 75-90fps with u/no6969el latest .ini
Today, same .ini and same race: 85-90fps without any stutters.
It’s confusing to setup the driver if you’re like me and not the most computer literate but it’s definitely worth the time.
Last week (maybe it was Tuesday? I can’t remember), my 50PPD head strap broke. I submitted a ticket and also posted on here, just to hopefully get a quicker turnaround.
Within an hour u/QuorraPimax responded; then a rep also responded to my ticket. They said they’ll be sending out a new headset and will update with the tracking info.
I’m impatient, so I went and got an ultrawide to see how I’d enjoy it. Luckily…I found a great headset so now I’m “stuck” with two headsets im extremely happy with. I attached a video of a through the lens recording along with my lack of talent.
By Friday I had my replacement headset in my hands. The instructions are for me to ensure the replacement is satisfactory, and return the broken one. I haven’t tested it yet but I’ll do so tomorrow.
I tried he MOLED but the one I got was not good as the eye tracking wasn’t, well, tracking, and the visuals itself were very dark; it felt like I was looking through cloth.
Yes. That’s their names.
It’s about a thumbnail size, which is big to me considering she’s only 4lbs. It’s already scabbed over, but my wife and daughter are pissed; I’m upset over it as well. The groomer that day was new, and someone im not familiar with at all. She has a second abrasion on her head, but I can’t get a photo of it as she keeps moving her head trying to cheese it up for the camera.
I called to let them know and although they were very apologetic, I’m hesitant to take her there again but also am unsure if I’m overreacting. I definitely feel guilt because I took her there and I don’t like that she got cut, accidentally or not.
Well this sucks.
Mods are the studioform kit. Always stored in a hard case between use. Never dropped.
Had a pristine module too; now time to play the lottery.
So dumb question but do I use the OUTPUTS 1—>Amp——>Bass shakers?
Or is it MAIN OUT ——> Amp ——> bass shaker
Upgraded seats. Don’t need this one. If you’re in OC I can even meet halfway.
Don’t mind my messy rig; I’m tired from swapping the seats and redoing the buttkickers.
I’m borrowing another posters photo, but can you remove the white bars and mount the seat on the red bars instead?
I want to lower the seat height and this was the thought I had
Received, setup and tried it out last night. It’s expensive, but amazing. If my DIY route worked , I’m sure I would’ve been just as happy, but I couldn’t figure out the wiring. So went and ordered the Qubic.
So it’s now in its final evolution. Motion is not something I want, as I’ve tried it and didn’t leave impressed. Just need to cut the back of the McQueen bed frame so I can mount it 😂

Unpaid review: the 5 or so YouTube videos I watched gave it great reviews, and honestly everything they said is spot-on
Worth it? If you’re good at DIY, then go that route. But after trying and failing at the DIY route, I’m ok paying for the premium.
It took me about an hour or so to mount and adjust the belts (I’m not obsessed enough to level the adjustment brackets on the belts themselves) but equally as long to get the tensioner running. Tried messing around with all the settings, YouTube tutorials etc. After an hour I remembered the discord; went there and saw there was mentions of a “global pause” for their systems after a recent software update, and to put the software into a Manual Pause mode. That worked
First lap and first braking zone and I thought I was going to get the life squeezed out of me. It’s strong; and that’s how I remembered I maxed out all settings when it wasn’t responding initially. Once unpaused…yeah I won’t max those settings out again. Ended up dropping everything to around 15-20% and I’m happy there.
Ended up doing one of the 40 min sprints at Spa on iracing last night.
It’s really fun to have the belts tighten or loosen up depending on what the car is doing. Adding this to VR will make my lower split/1000iR races that much more compelling 😂 I was able to improve my race pace from 2:23.xx in the Porsche GT3R to 2:20.xx. Is this due to more belt feedback? Maybe, maybe not but I’ll say it is just for placebo
After taking care of day to day responsibilities, I do some sim racing to unwind so yeah…this purchase will be worthwhile. I can say I enjoy this haptic add-on more than any full motion sims I’ve tried before
Kind of cool to see it get a second chance at life.

i shared this a couple weeks ago, on Fathers Day. And i wish there was a better update, but there isnt. In that time hes just become like a stranger at home. Hes pulled away from everyone, to the point theres barely an utter about his name at home. Even grandma/my MIL, has become a stranger to him. Last week i had a longer shift at work, but saw that a delivery for some packing boxes arrived. Looked in his room when i got home and saw some items packaged, then his closet was empty. MIL mentioned she asked him what hes doing with his old clothes and he snapped that hes moving
I asked him about it, he said “not anytime soon but thats what hes saving for”.
He just wants nothing to do with anyone at home. Even his younger brother/our youngest son, who he was the closest to, has become distant to him. He turns 18 in November. Towards the end of IOT (intensive outpatient therapy) and family therapy, my wife and i tried to apologize for the things we came up short on, but emphasized we wanted to meet in the middle to fix things. I also admitted to him I expect him to be estranged from us for a bit, but am praying i am wrong.
THe other week, he told me hes still mad at us for being ”mean to her“ (his ex GF) and that we are the reason they broke up “(how can a couple last when the parents dont like her?!?!”)
Ive apologized so many times; i vacillate between “i can’t wait for him to move out” to “how can i fix this?”
I would accept it mine or my wifes fault if he only took it out on us, but hes taken no interest in his siblings, grandparents (my inlaws or my own parents), cousins, aunts, uncles.
His therapist said this, and i’m beginning to believe it…the only reason hes closer to everyone outside of family is because they don’t know the ugly side of him, nor do they have an obligation/responsibility to him. THe people hes cold to are the ones who also have seen his ugly parts and hes avoiding that.
I don’t know…i’m both rambling and journaling. IT just keeps me up at night, has given me some aspects of depression, guilty and shame.
I should’ve paced myself a bit more here
And I’m throwing in the towel. I’ve done, redone and redone the wiring. I’ve traced the wires from stepper to driver and verified via manuals about which wire goes where. Redone the hall sensor multiple time. Had new mounting plates reprinted and new arms reprinted due to them breaking after multiple times taking things down. I’ve asked for help on discord. Stepped away and tried again. No luck at all
I know this is probably a massive user error but no matter what I’ve tried, I can’t get the setup to calibrate.
So to those wanting to do this: it’s not easy if you’ve never done something like this. I’ve installed CANbus gauges in my car but for the life of me I cannot wrap my head around this.
