Web Dev Person / Ex Performance ECU Calibrations Person
Interesting, thanks for the info!
I wasn’t aware of the update process being used as an attack vector (if it’s still a thing) gonna have to read up more on that.
I used Apple for the last few years until recently and I can’t say I’ve ever really noticed stuff like apps faking being another app. That’s not to say it doesn’t happen of course.
I do know the Apple app approval process is definitely more strict than what is required for the Play Store.
I’m not very experienced with Apple or Android development so I’d be curious to hear from devs that use both platforms as well.

What are you talking about? You are the one who ranted about people proving you wrong.
You made a big deal out of someone being perfectly pleasant replying to you.
Your viewpoint of anyone responding to you with anything other than agreement as an attack seems to be the real issue.
I’m not upset, you shouldn’t be either, it’s not that big of a deal.

Seems like a friendly enough response was given to your comment and you automatically assumed they were only interested in saying you’re wrong.
Having a discussion is not “proving everyone wrong”
Wow they really didn’t try at all to be even somewhat secure.
Well you’ll probably really enjoy This Video haha!
The MGU-H mode was on the “motor” so it doesn’t count for this challenge but still that’s the absolute most I can get out of the car!
I’m right on the edge of my ability through a lot of this lap, proper sweaty attempt.
I’ll run in the correct mode for an official lap if I end up needing to, no worries there. At most the advantage was a few tenths as ERS deployment per lap is limited.
Moar people need to join up and give it a go!
Yessir, there’s a bit more left on the table but I’m pretty happy with a ~29.8!
At least until someone beats me hah
Hah, funnily enough Alonso is my all time favorite driver and I have admired his driving style for many years.
Yeah Degna 1 is flat if you just close your eyes and huck it in!
I don’t think I’ve ever taken Spoon curve in any game or car and thought I did it right, it always feels so wrong to me. I think that attempt was the closest I’ve been to feeling I got it right.
The 1:29’s are clearly within grasp for both of us, I feel I left a few tenths on the table at the hairpin alone with the lockup and horrible line.
Very nice lap! It definitely looks like you tend to be a driver with really smooth and clean inputs, I tend to wrestle things a bit as least in qualifying I’ve noticed in comparison. I’m always fascinated by driving style differences between drivers while also being relatively equal in speed.
I just happened to have a set a new lap myself, just to give you a bit of a headache 😆
Sounds good to me!
You know…I may have ran in hotlap mode as well just out of quali habit.
I’ll have to run again in the default mode this weekend and post that time just to be sure. I don’t want any advantage haha
Good thing you pointed that out lol
Edit - Though I would argue for hotlaps it would make sense to be able to use whatever default onboard controls the vehicle has imo.
Thanks! I honestly had no idea what a decent lap was with this car/track hah.
It’s definitely a track you have to be really precise at (in this car especially) otherwise you go slightly off line and run just wide enough in places to dip a wheel in the grass and around you go.
Really really fun though, especially when you get it just right!
Looking forward to seeing if I can improve a bit more this coming weekend. I’m sure you’ll catch up to me soon enough lmao.
It’s not much but I’ll kick us off!
Laptime | Video | Comments |
---|---|---|
1:30.515 | N/A | N/A |
1:30.072 | Video | So close to the 29’s! A couple of obvious mistakes sadly. |
1:29.866 | Video | A bit more on the edge now! Still a few clear mistakes made, leaning jussttt a tad too hard on the brakes at a few points causing some minor lockups. |
Track and Car both feel really good!
Edit - Bonus full send lap (MGU-H in motor mode) for fun!
I disliked signal app wise, and Matrix app was a buggy mess for me and the 4 other people who tried to use it as well
SimpleX was easy to setup and has been for the most part stable for all of us.
Basically to answer your question, people like different things.
SimpleX isn’t perfect by any means but it seems to be developed at a somewhat decent pace with noticeable improvements being made.
As a dev it’s nice to check all the official guideline boxes, as a user I’d much rather actually have features.
Agreed, I’m all for some variability in what sim and cars we use!
That’s a fair enough opinion, as a developer of various crap and even more specifically specific ECU tunes used for performance events etc…I’m a bit opposite in I find it slightly annoying companies and people want to keep everything close to themselves and not share anything.
Especially if it doesn’t impact them if it’s being used on another one of their own products. But that’s just my stance.
I can see both viewpoints as equally valid.
As for the car suggestions I’m just GT3’d out, that’s all sim racing has been for the past few years hah! But I’ll drive what the people vote for regardless!
I use the F-GT Lite as my main rig and have no real complaints. It’s everything I would want from a midrange foldable rig.
I do want to add a bass shaker or two and I think it’ll be a perfectly reasonable cockpit for 95% of people.
Edit - I of course would always welcome as solid of a wheel mounting system as possible. The Lite has some wiggle but it can be compensated for with few tweaks.
