Updates and cars

I’m pretty new to Evo and wondered how often do cars get added, or is it just a random drop of a few every now and again, for me it’ll be hard to top anything that feels more fun than the mini B16 but keen to see what else they bring to the game.

Manual vs auto

I’ve been thinking about going manual as I feel like even though I’ll use the paddles to shift down every now and again I find the auto shifting times can just slow me down or send me into a bush if I miss time a change, the paddles for full manual just don’t feel right to me hence fancying a gear stick, my question is how do your lap times compare when you go from auto to manual?
I’ve got a fanatec csl, the fanatec shifter seems pricey for me to jump in so probably going to look into a usb one to start, haven’t looked at clutch pedals yet but obviously I’ll need a fanatec one to add on, at least I assume.

Steam closing immediately

So recently I've been using Steam VR quite often, (Via ALVR, not sure if that matters) and after a use or two, I open steam and it just closes almost instantly, I found a fix which is to go to %localappdata% and delete the Steam and Steam VR folder, Open up steam, sign in and bing bang bong I'm playing again, but why is this happening? I’d rather not have to find and delete folders each time even though it takes seconds. It's never happened for years and years through other standard games.

So after a mental amount of setup I got ALVR running with the cable, with BeamNG it run beautifully, looks great and is smooth as butter, AC Evo however looks smooth on my monitor but in the headset it’s quite laggy, playable but not ideal, in beamng you can set it to show gameplay only in headset, not sure if it’s doable in evo but would be nice.

So maybe a long shot but I’m guessing a few of you are using the same vr setup for racing

so got ALVR connected to my quest 2 via the cable, headset showing steamVR, but the two games I play (beamNG and Assetto corsa evo, both now don’t work, am I missing a setting somewhere?

Assetto corsa evo just doesn’t launch, it says it’s playing but I don’t see anything but the loading world on the headset

BeamNG launches but when clicking activate vr it just crashes.

Both used to work using the link cable via horizon link app, however the cable no longer works that way as a lot of you know it has problems.

So quest 2 isn’t launching link? It either loads forever, doesn’t find link at all and spins or just loads for a second and goes back to whatever the normal dashboard is called, done some research and it seems it’s just a pure shit show, can I just bin the oculus/meta software off altogether and use the link cable another way? Or is this not possible
I just want to play my racing sim for Christ sake, it has worked previously By the way then mid drive it shat itself and hasn’t worked since, tried loads of things found on Reddit, Google and YouTube.
