How to Play Assetto Corsa in VR with the Meta Quest 3 or Quest 2!

[@strangerdanger1012]

I won't lie when I say I find Asseto Corsa settings intimidating and rely on others with more knowledge to help... THANK YOU!

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

There’s so many of them I still find them intimidating too but thank you for the kind words 🙏

[@oskansavli]

Tip 1: Set your vertical FOV to 0.6 or 0.7 and horizontal FOV to 0.9 from the Oculus Debug Tool. You can almost double your resolution this way. Tip 2: If you have a low end GPU, just disable post processing and Single Pass Stereo from CSP VR Tweaks. Game becomes so light this way.

[@HansenTommy]

Can you help me with this setup via devug tool

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

@HansenTommy sure can you give me a little bit more information?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Sure. I’ll do what I can when I can discord.gg/UXrMbKzy

[@protectorp]

Setting the FOV by 0.6 and 0.9 made the frame rate up a lot! Thanks so much for the tips!

[@KrupekXD]

You think i could run it w rx570 4gb on no hesi? I feel like pc would blow up 😂 vr works for me on pc but not all games i tried

[@jimbochoo3316]

There's also VR tweaks in the shaders patch menu. Making some changes there can give you an FPS boost. Assetto Corsa runs well in VR, but the main issue is some mod tracks or mod cars are poorly optimized and can cause stuttering compared to the official Kunos content.

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

I’ve not changed anything in there but will check those out and may be do a more in depth video. Thanks for the reminder 👍🏻

[@raysimkiss8031]

Do you have any recommendations on cars that are optimised and any car packs go stray clear off Mainly drift and btcc

[@benshaw576]

Every time I try and launch the game in VR it crashes, I have the latest of everything with Pure enabled, do you have sol or pure too? I wondering if that's the cause of the crash

[@eliapavoni2275]

Link cable is nice, but if you have a nice router Virtual Desktop is next level, you can have stuff like snapdragon supersampling, SSW and most of all hand tracking which works with Assetto Corsa (and of course you are wire free)

[@TheGNOSiSproject]

Tell me more. Who does it work? How to set it up? My Link cable connection stopped working.

[@zepos]

@@TheGNOSiSproject to have a nice setup with vd, you definitely want a wifi 6 router that is in your room connected to your pc via ethernet, then you connect to it in your vr

[@pulsefiend]

plz man share more for a newb, a virtual desktop is something you pay subscription for access to a more powerful computer you link up to?

[@Insanesvrider]

virtual desktop is a program. Buy it at the meta store in your hmd. Do not confuse it, you do not need to buy anything on a PC, only on hmd. This program allows you to connect wirelessly to a PC. It works much better than airlink.​@@pulsefiend

[@casey22857]

​@@pulsefiend Virtual desktop is a paid app you must install on your pc and install on your headset . It is a great app for wireless pc vr. Again as others have said you will want a wifi 6 router or wifi 6e is the best option and what I use.

I been sim racing for a while, and you are the FIRST person to break down VR setup in an easy manner Atleast in a manner that I understand....and I'm a huge PC nerd! Open XR Open VR Oculus.... I never know what to use or even what I'm using. I gave up...NOW I'm about to give it another go! Thanks so much! You Rock! You even went over the PP filter!

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Thank you for the kind words. Very much appreciated. Let me know how it goes. I've been there many times with VR. So many variables when all I want to do is jump in and drive. 👍🏻

[@kb5057]

Hi, would you mind confirming a few things for me please....new to VR, never owned one but im a long time sim racer so im about ready to take the plunge and try something different to my triples for that extra immersion....Kit wise, i plan to use the link cable if it does a better job for sim racing, does this negate the need to buy the headset with the extra battery pack or will i still need it? I presume the cable charges as you play so it cant run out and therefore no need to buy the charging dock either right? Will i need to the two handheld controller things? Finally, would you advise buying the elite strap? Thankyou

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Hey and welcome 👋🏻 Firstly I'd be super interested in your opinions on VR vs triples. I've never had the space so would welcome your thoughts. So the Meta link cable doesn't keep the headset charged. It will drain slower but will eventually run out. I would purchase a powered link cable. You essentially plug one end to a USB 3.x port on yor PC and the other to the headset. In the middle of the cabling there's a power box. You take the original Meta USB-C cable and plug one end into this box and the other into a mains socket. I would seriously save your money and not buy the Elite strap. I bought that too and then very quickly found it still not super comfortable and bought the Bobo S3 which is a very similar price (may even be cheaper) and is not only super comfortable but comes with a battery pack that does keep the headset charged and a cooling fan too. You don't need to buy the controllers for SimRacing. I would only recommend those if you ever plan to play standalone games. I use the hand gestures to launch things. Let me know how you get on. 👍🏻

[@kb5057]

Awesome thankyou ever so much for your reply, i will take your advice and make some purchases! Very exciting and yeah of course, i will report back here once ive had it a week or so with my opinion. Sim racing has been a passion of mine for over 10 years and triples have been part of my setup for 3-4 of those so id say im qualified to give an opinion...be back soon and thanks again!!@@thesimracingshaolinstudent

[@vanra101]

Thank you so much for putting this video together. I've been putting off setting up Assetto Corsa for years and finally got around to doing it through your videos. All set up and ready to go on Quest 3. Question: I'm hitting 90 FPS on practice or when the other cars level out on the grid. But I'm near 45-50 FPS at the start of the race when all the cars are bunched together. Are you hitting 90 FPS the entire race beginning to end irrespective of number of cars?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

It will drop with a full grid at the start of the race but will then quickly come back up again but it's usually no less that 70fps for a few seconds.

Same. Only oculus setting works, not openvr. My image isn't great and this seems to be the only difference from this great tutorial. I wonder if this is the cause?

[@TheOfficialRandomGuy]

What all do you have on in Custom patch settings? I have a 2080, and can get at least 72fps. If you haven’t already figured it out, it takes some time to get the settings right. lol

[@atechcheck]

Great Video! Only 2 thhing you messed up that needs a bit more explaining :) When you said to turn off Anisotropic F. in CM since it is better if GPU takes that load (which is correct) you didn't mentioned that it must be then enabled in Nvidia Control panel and adjusted there, correct? And at the end you mentioned Max Bitrate and to increase in 100 increments and to test.... Test for what exactly? What to look for? What are the benefits going higher or lower? and most importantly how to know if something is actually better or worse? Like drop in frames, stuttering, resolution drop etc? Kinda super important but missed completely :) Especially since if default is at around 130 and max is 500 and hacked max is 950 while our theoretical link max is at 2.0-2.5 Gbps thru link cable, I am asking myself why would they set it to 130 by default and limit it to 500 max? Hope you can answer since I am trying to get the max out of Q3 and in ACC it look like dog shiat even with all the settings adjusted... Car interior looks great but track and anything after 10m is just a mess xD (and I have my Q3 at 90 or 120Hz and 1.5x res....) Will test AC with what I learned from your video and hope that at least AC will be good since I know UE4 is also bad in VR :)

PC specs 6800k 1080ti (in sli but i guess that doesnt make a difference?) enough m2 SSD space where AC is installed. i literally put the AC Setting to the lowest possible and its still unplayable. Does anyone have an idea why that happens? I have heard that OpenVR bricks your Headset but i have no idea at this point. Any Help is appreciated

[@Auzyyyyyy]

Well yeah... He is cranking the bitrate, and resolution to max while running a game on high settings. For you it's like having dual 4k monitors and trying to run cyberpunk on your mid-tier PC. 1080s and 6800k cant keep up.

[@KhaoticRedd]

Turn down your oculus resolution and possibly your bitrate as well. What are those set at for your setup?

[@477RTE]

is a i5-12400f rtx 3060 12gb vram pc considered a low end or mid end pc?

[@luenicluke]

Mid. This is the exact pc I have and it plays assetto corsa with no lags at high settings with VR

[@477RTE]

@@luenicluke thx

[@lordadz1615]

low/mid its a bit of both

[@mrmysteron3590]

Mine doesn't work with OpenVR only works with Oculus Rift rendering mode?

[@nex0339]

can u also do it with air link?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

You can yes if you have good WiFi. They recommend WiFi 6 which I don’t have but I’ve always had a cable connected to my VR headset for years so I’m used to it. Let me know how you get on 👍🏻

[@lordadz1615]

When I am in game i see two screens. I only want to see one screen when racing. How do i do that

[@Nebbzz]

Hey, when I’m trying to play this game with my oculas 3 joysticks it dosnt work. What do I do?

[@OZSzymonek]

I got a Logitech Steering Wheel and Oculus 2. Is there a chance to use both devices together?

[@deadlydarksun9670]

Came across your channel last night as im at that point of frustration. Having setup my motion rig at not getting stuff to work together. In short i have a dof reality h6, fanatec csl wheel/pedals,quest 3,i9 with 50 ram and a 4080 sp setup power is all there. I run virtual desktop not a cable. I have sim racing studio, is that the quivalent of content manager? I bought asserto on steam and dirt rally 2 but when i tried them my pc slowed right up(maybe its the virtual desktop but it works perfectly with half life and ghosts of tabor.) And i couldnt get to go into vr mode leaving me with cursors or press enter etc. Is that because asserto is only vr "supported" and theres some setting i have to change ?? Lastly if i download the other software like pure and shader patch will it be compatible with my currebt setup. Thanks as you do explain setting up so well!❤

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Sorry to hear you’re having issues. So I use sim racing studio for my wind sim so this piece of software would be to setup you motion platform. Is that all working ok? Let’s start with Assetto Corsa first. Content manager is a launcher for Assetto Corsa so you don’t run the ac program, you run content manager choose the track the cars practise or race and then it launches the game for you. In content manager under video settings is OpenVR chosen? If so try the Oculus Rift option. OpenVR works for me and others but not for some people. Try that and then let me know what you see then 👍🏻

[@deadlydarksun9670]

Thank you , its good to understand the order of communication of all these software packages. Atm i have issues maintaining connection of dof boxes and srs but hopefully support will help me out. Im getting wind addon too! Should be great but right now i just need to get things talking together and working! Thank you for responding too much appreciated!

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

No problem the SRS support is top notch so I’m confident you’ll get that sorted quickly. Let me know once all that’s done if you still have issues. Sounds like an awesome setup 👍🏻

[@deadlydarksun9670]

Following this great guide i managed to have my first test and the rig did connect however after the race i tried to restart the race and it glitched out and then had to do a complete restart and try again. So still not out of the woods for finding why.... trying a powered hub tomorrow when it arrives. But i cant audio through my quest 3. Link cable tests ok. How did you get it to work, as on the net its a known bug. Fir the moment i have to run through a bt speaker. Thanks

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

@@deadlydarksun9670 So in sound settings make sure the Oculus headset is chosen and then in Content Manager under settings -> Audio you can set your audio device to the Quest headset too 👍🏻

[@zzmadd]

Can you play with the quest attacheed to power and with a Display Port? Did you find the way to go 120hz? Do you have a 4090, yes you have. Thanks.

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Hey you can’t connect the Quest 3 to a display port, no. Only USB-C. Apparently steam link allows you to choose 120hz but so far the link cable only goes up to 90hz 👍🏻

[@Guido_Wessels]

@@thesimracingshaolinstudentdo you need the link cable or can I just use any usb-c cable?

I just got the quest 3 I have a 4060ti 16gb, Ryzen 7 5800x3d 32 gb ram etc, followed all the steps, now when I launch the game it says warning, failed to initialize vr. What do I do?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

A lot of people like myself can run with OpenVR chosen. Set it in content manager to Oculus Rift and try that 👍🏻

[@dannyjf9064]

So do I get the 2 or 3 for assetto? Thanks

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

If you’ve got the budget go for the 3. 👍🏻

[@FHatzor]

I got it running over steamlink, no cable needed. I didn't even try, it just did its thing. Am I a wizard or something? Folks that made steamlink are wizards?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

I do love things that just work. I’ve been looking at it this morning and you’re right it just worked 👍🏻

What's so hard about click a popup saying do you want to enable Oculus Link and load into oculus app? and open Steam VR?

Hello; I cannot access such a settings interface in the game, I wonder what the problem could be?

Hey do you mean in Content Manager?

[@kampveyaban]

yes@@thesimracingshaolinstudent

[@michiii2034]

Do you need a link cable because my pc does not have usb c

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

If you've got good WiFi then no you don't. Your PC only needs to have a USB 3.0 port. So can be a standard USB port with the blue plastic just inside it. Hope that helps. 👍🏻

[@WalkingSinger05]

So, i own a 3050 8gb vram, 32gb ram, ryzen 5, i can run ac with cm at least 60fps? Pls help i want to buy a oculus meta quest 2 🥺

[@jamalal-snan8285]

Question: I always struggle to boot the game in VR, I tried adding it in Quest but it just doesn't boot, what I am missing? It's like VR isn't enabled in the game.

[@WillCanada]

Are you using Oculus Rift?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

Try setting it to Oculus Rift in content manager. I use OpenVR and so do a lot of other people but for some Oculus Rift works.

[@jamalal-snan8285]

I have at last figured it out, in video rendering part :)@@thesimracingshaolinstudent

[@jamalal-snan8285]

Now a harder question, I saw a video someone driving with hand, waving the other hand, and switching on music with his finger via dashboard of the card, and having traffic, this is all possible?

[@rotorcraftsimulation]

What if I'm using wifi? Does it need the usb cable?

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

No you don’t need the USB cable. You can use Oculus AirLink or Virtual Desktop or SteamLink. I chose the cable route. 👍🏻

[@HueWave]

how did you get assetto vr to record widescreen like this, mine only does for the right eye and the fov is super small

[@alencampoli8578]

everything went well, except that when I accelerate with the pedal, the game steering wheel turns, while my real steering wheel doesn't turn...

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

That sounds like you have a mapping configured oddly in Content Manager. If you go into controls you can set them up there. 👍🏻

[@Wossupgee]

Discrod link? Cant find them for the vr pc specs

Can I play in vr with no steering wheel. PlayStation controller maybe….

I know you can use an Xbox controller. So am guessing you could use one.

[@alexandrucristian289]

The only VR Racing i do is on Gran Turismo Sport on my PS4Pro, so yeah, the quality of the image is not very good, is pixelated but i can compromise that for the sake of being in the car which is by far the best experience i ever had. I am thinking on buying a VR Headset for my PC to try in Assetto Corsa, problem is, my PC is on the low end range in terms of VR. I did run the Steam VR Bench once and said it's just about VR Ready, but that means in my opinion that is not realy good for VR and i need a better spec. So i will have to delay the PC Build and VR Headset.

Thanks! I have a 2080 Super and despite lots of fiddling can't get anything resembling good he graphics without a decent playable no motion sick FPS. Will have to revert to flat screen until my 4070 arrives. Appreciate your videos ! It's a big reason why my fellow ACC racers have come to AC. I do have a friend who is well connected and says AC2 will be mind blowing.

[@thesimracingshaolinstudent]

@@mark_lhr3ooooo interesting. So looking forward to ac2 and really hope they allow for mods too. Been on the Beta for RENNSPORT for some time now but waiting for VR support before I release something. Have you ordered the new GPU?

[@S0L0M0N-VR]

why deos assetto corsa say it can do vr on steam even though after buying the game you need to buy multiple subscriptions just to run vr. Its like buying a vr headset that had pictures of controllers to seem like they came with it then it turning up without controllers and you need to buy them seperatly
