Thanks for sticking around for so long ❤

ive been following dan since day one, he got me into my first motorcycle so long ago, and has inspired me to take steps into doing my own little projects so many times i love the dudes enthusiasm when he does something even if it turns out to be a massive hole in his pocket at first.

​@@DOITWITHDAN was enocuraged to see when i initially subscribed to you after reading Alex's comment. Turns out, I just hit the eight year mark yesterday. "Do It With Dan - April 30, 2015" I've recently turned 20 years old and it's crazy to think about finding you and watching your content since the age of 12.

I get hard motion sickness from it tbh

[@FAB1150]

@@chrisi7127 I do too if the FPS and latency are not stable. It's not a cheap upgrade, the computer has to handle it... If it does it's the best upgrade hands down, even with a cheap wheel and pedals it drives up the immersion by a lot!

@@FAB1150how sure are you that this will help with motion sickness? I get it really bad from many games on my Quest 2 and it sucks. I stopped VR entirely for a long time now because the last time I played it really got me crazy sick. Its hard to justify spending thousands of dollars and having no clue if you will or wont feel anything

[@FAB1150]

@@feverdream2661 i get bad motion sickness too with anything less than 60fps on any game (even not VR), it's a bit of a curse as I can't really enjoy games if not with a multi-thousand dollar computer. I got one a few years ago and it really completely solved it for me. With the Quest 2 standalone I can play some games like beat saber just fine, but others make me want to sit down and vomit in 10 minutes. With PC games like Assetto Corsa I haven't had issues at all, but I got a used 3090 to do it (before I had a 2070, it could do it but stayed at ~70fps which is at the edge for me, I guess that a 2080 is enough for simracing games). I'm guessing it's very subjective, it sucks to not know if it will solve it for you before buying. It did for me but that's all I can say

[@unloadingwhale6559]

The first time I tried GT7 in PSVR2 I immediately ordered a wheel and pedals. Will probably end up building a rig as well, its just amazing stuff and the absolute most immersive I have ever felt.

[@ed808]

Same

[@newcomer87]

It’s going to go downhill from here. After getting PSVR2 I got a aluminum rig, a DD wheel and pedals (load cell brake), vibration transducers for the seat and a wind / speed sim, all working with the telemetry of the game 🫠 don’t say I didn’t warn you 😅😆

[@bigzachful]

​@@newcomer87 Where can I order all of that? And yeah your right

Here’s what I bought: GT Omega Prime Lite cockpit with RS12 seat Logitech Pro wheel and pedals Sim racing studio Ushake 6 (found it used locally, was planning to DYI some buttkickers / transducers but was worried it might have gotten too loud) Alphasim wind sim (based in EU, that’s why I chose them over Sim Racing Studio, if I was in the US, I’d go with Sim racing studio) Also bought a second hand Lenovo Laptop, which I only use for capturing the telemetry from GT7 and run simhub (where you can customize how much vibration and wind you get) It sounds more complicated than it is lol 😆

[@br8ley]

I did exactly the same , went out and got the G923 to go with it , only downside is there's literally only GT7 for Playstation , imagine Forza 5 with the VR2 , might as well super glue everyone's ass to their seats 😂

[@copieokie]

Dan, a halo strap for the oculus will change your VR life so much. The stock straps have nothing against the halo straps. Padding on the back of your head and the snug fit without weird pressure all in 1 spot. Makes the oculus feel like it weighs nothing!

[@wjveryzer7985]

2nd this. The elite with battery makes it SO comfy

[@GeeCeeAte]

Yup. Finally got one as well. I’ve had VR since the DK1 Prob the best thing I’ve ever bought.

[@silentbob8635]

I have the frankenquest setup, its honestly stupid comfortable. Plus the added earmuffs are really good for not being full over the ear headphones.

[@AdrianLabs]

Ok, as a dude who has spent/wasted a lot in looking for the utmost comfort and best battery life for my Q2 experiences, I have tried almost all popular headstraps, I can say the following combination is the best, most comfortable and lasting solution ever: BoboVR M2 Plus (the version with twin battery pack) and their fitness facial interface that includes an extractor/ventilator so the lenses dont fog, is the best thing ever, I can spend hours on the sim racing, no VR face marks, oh also got the Globular Cluster 2023 Version Stereo Bass VR Headphones, got all from amzn, around 200 bucks in investment for all things but it was really worth it, more than all the money I invested in other solutions like the frankenquest, elite headstrap with battery and one from kiwi designs, its scary how much time I can be lost in my Q2 with this setup...

[@MrKrampyHands]

Yes the Bobo VR strap is easily the best one I love mine it's also got a extra battery pack on the back that's interchangeable I use it to play AC and ACC in vr

[@JohnDoe-xl1ig]

I am like this with a lot of games even at 39. I don't think it's ruining my life... I find it makes my life a lot happier. I still pay my bills, spend time with family, and do what I gotta do but down time when its time to have fun I go pretty hard on gaming. I would rather game than party and do all that jazz, I enjoy my cozy quiet space in room where I game... stress melts away fast.

[@InHeartsWake.]

This. I will always get enjoyment from games.

[@luxuriousrustbucket]

same! I'm 38 and have always played games. Started with serial port Quake 1 parties. Played lots of racing and FPS, pretty much every major title that has come out. It was harder to balance life when I was younger. I remember being able to sit in a chair for 14-16 hrs just having fun. As you get older you have to get up for multiple reason so reality hits you more often LOL. Maybe I didn''t learn anything and just got old LOLOLOL

That rig looks incredible Dan. Enjoyed watching the build, and I'm even more stoked that you love your rig and having fun with it so much.

[@doot6516]

i just have to say. If racing in these games is that insane i think its time to give assetto a download and start learning about the mods. Just the sounds in that game alone will give you goosebumps and the physics are insane.

I bought a cockpit at about the same time you were building this. I also agree, VR racing is amazing...I have my cockpit setup with a Fanatec DD GT wheel and pedals and H shifter hooked to my PS5 and PSVR2 for Gran Turismo 7 and it is...well you can't even describe it, you have to experience it.

[@arranmc182]

If your a PC sim racer skip bothering with a single 16:9 display and buy either tripple 16:9 displays or some kind of ultrawide 21:9 or super ultrawide 32:9, but word of warning just like VR once you do go that way with displays you will find it very hard to go back to any single 16:9 display.

[@danceoffAsh]

I agree with you Dan, once I tried VR out I could never go back. I even invested on a high end 4k monitor thinking that it would be enough for immersion, but VR is a whole different game. I also find myself saving a lot of money not trying to buy too many wheels as the VR wheel representation is all I need. The quest is great, but personally favorite is my Pico Neo 3 Link, the link factor is that it connects to my PC via an actual Display Port via USB C and it provides amazing visuals without a hitch of compression. My wow experience was when I put the VR headset on and found myself inside the Lamborghini Huracan GT4 on ACC. Can never forget that moment. Plus there was already random rain occurring and it was even more immersive. I do hope the VR tech improves as the quality of the textures and clarity are still miles away from what you see on a flat screen. Once such company that is pushing the 200 FOV mark is Pimax. Giving you a full view without the binocular vision that is present with the Quest 2. Once you tried the Pimax 8kx or the 5k super there is indeed no turning back. But these products lack the image quality and the clarity that the Quest 2 has. They have a new one coming out called the Crystal (High in clarity 42ppd but low FOV [Quest 2 like] and the 12K QLED with a 200 FOV, which is going to be a game changer. 6k per eye! That's insane!

the flat screen to VR transition is wild - I have gotten 4 different people into Sim racing + VR from letting them try mine but the transition between 'every other game' vs the fine world of curated Assetto Corsa pc mods is just as big of a jump imo. I had one friend who only ever played random games on his PS5 & he sold his wheel after a few months, but the people who I convinced to fully trust me & build a pc & just hop into AC w/ mods - they are all still here & ripping with me every weekend in our server + online lobbies.

Been a fan of your stuff for years really cool to see your taking on sim racing it’s become a new hobby for me for about 5 years now. I’m running all fanatec hardware at this point and I’m loving it. If you really want to get the most immersive experience the dof reality motion rig completely changes the experience and they are priced so good for what you get. I paid 1800.00 for mine shipped it was h2 model. I’ve been mostly running iracing myself and it’s been a blast.

Once I got a racing sim, it was crazy, I could just cruise around forza for hours and not get bored. Literally no races, just driving in the open world for hours. Even still a few months later I'll still spend a whole day off just exploring. I was sore after my first day of just actually racing all day. Literally my arms and my clutch leg were hurting.

[@MegaIronica]

Dude it is the first time I watch you and can 100% relate. VR has reignited the gaming passion I lost after becoming an adult. I literally don't understand how can someone not like VR, except from may be having too much motion sickness. The whole reason we game since our childhood is to feel like we are inside the game. There is no better way to experience that than VR. Wait till you discover Skyrim VR with VR mods that make the game insanely immersive. I was never interested in this game, but because of VR it is one of my favorite now alongside racing sims. PS : I am sure you heard that PC3 is far from being the most realistic sim. I say if you like it who cares. However, if you get the chance to try rFactor 2 or iRacing, the experience is on another level.

[@andrewmasonwerdna]

Dude Dan, I was nunber 1 in Sim driving like 8years ago, the kid I was against I kinda knew he wanted to be a pro driver, so in practice I took a hard L for him to win, cause I've never liked the easy roads. I just was a good driver, really miss red bull series, is really time melting when you play, spent a year behind a Logitech wheel. Now I cut grass n ride motorcycles like I wanted to do lol!

[@theatlsquid]

I've got a Fanatec Clubsport base with the BMW GT3 wheel, Fanatec CSL v2.5 pedals, and a Next Level Racing GT Ultimate cockpit setup. I went with the Rift S for my VR though, since I only use it for sim racing. I had to force myself off of it after I got it all set up and dialed in lol. You're right, it's way too easy to spend all day in there! Loving the content lately!

[@dathyr1]

i don't think I have ever gotten to this kind of intensity of sitting hours on end with a VR headset doing SIM racing or any other games I have. But i see it can be addictive and I have done allot. What really pushes SIM racing drivers is first the immersive-ness trying to be the best and the fastest in online racing. To do this you have to spend hours on each track, tweaking car setups, and then racing with other people to feel comfortable. It finally boils down to do you still enjoy doing this and the experience of SIM racing and VR. Good luck in your SIM racing and gaming in VR.

My only concern with VR is that I get bad motion sickness. Ive seen mixed reviews of how to alleviate the problem but its hard to know until you try it. I just dont want to waste thousands of dollars to then find out that its unusable for me. Same thing with buying a sim racing rig. I would gladly dump a good amount of money into this but I have no clue what to expect. I wish there was a place that let you test these rigs out so that you know if its the right move.

[@EspenFrafalne]

I recently got the NLR DD wheel stand (which can be upgraded to "GTtrack" cockpit if you buy a seat), and think this is a very nice affordable solution. It is also great for people who have limited space. I have been thinking about getting a smaller apartment that doesnt cost as much for rent and heating. Especially the living room doesnt have to be bigger than to fit 1 small table, some shelves, my gaming chair, wheel stand, and a stand for a 55-60"TV. Probably sounds absurd to Americans who love their big homes, but im the type of guy who is fascinated by "efficiency", and who gets my social interactions through FB, and REALLY DONT plan on starting a family EVER, lol!

Neglecting other hobbies, cycling, gym my cars & dogs etc. Afraid to even look at another video game now.

[@gtifury310]

I do a lot of iRacing and recently switched from VR to a 42" OLED. Triples would be ideal, but it's what I have room for now. I definitely am faster in VR, and it's a better experience. But I can race longer with a monitor, the monitor just works, no annoying setup issues like with VR, and I can see stuff outside of the headset which is useful for hitting certain buttons on the wheel and keyboard if needed. Overall, VR actually ends up limiting the experience because you can't see your hands or surroundings. It's definitely taking a bit to get back up to speed on a screen though.

Honestly I see the logic behind getting the best of everything right away for your sim rig but the best way is to progress in my opinion. Take for example someone who just wants to get a wheel and see if they even like the experience. The cost is so much nowadays you almost have to build up and trade up /sell equipment until you hit a level your comfortable with without blowing the whole cost of a real car on your sim rig if you don’t have money to waste.

Even tho this is 2months old for me this video is my first video I seen of you and you got my sub for sure man, you’ve talked me into it with the vr cause I’ve been wanting one so bad but haven’t pulled the trigger, this sir made me wanna pull the trigger lol 😂

[@SkyAnthro]

I just finished my setup too ^-^ I love the VR in Assetto Corsa! I highly recommend it with mods

[@captainjac6114]

Dan keep your head up, ive been following you for a long time…..hope to run into you on the road one day but it has yet to happen!!! You got me into bikes!!!! Keep it up and inspire others

[@mrgreene11]

A decently affordable upgrade and huge jump in clarity is the HP Reverb G2, especially on a sale or 2nd hand.. Then get a custom Wide FOV face gasket. Not only way better visuals, amazing sound, more comfortable , much lighter and no losing battery since it has to be plugged in.

[@br4nd0n79]

I started watching your moto vids, got into VR racing a year an a half ago, had to take a break. But I still love racing in vr flight as well quest to reverb G2. It’s crazy how immersive it is

[@godw1ll99]

the head set really completes the experience. not using it is like playing at 4k 120hz for a long time then trying to go back to 1080p 30hz.

[@codey2018]

Hell yeah I made it into a doitwithdan YT video!!!! Dan man you know all of us that watch either on twitch or here love you bud and only want that best for you and Laura man keep up the awesome shit and keep your head up we got your back!!!

[@stephenbaughman3379]

Good shit Dan! Love the content! That VR is sick and has got to be really cool.

[@darkanglesnip3r]

Ive been watching you since like 2014 you’ve always been my favorite youtuber

[@That_1_guy69]

Been around for 9 years now. Only KZbinr I’ve watched this long. Love you dawg. I feel like we’re childhood friends as weird as that sounds lmaooo

[@glenponder592]

Been sim racing in vr for about 2 years.still feels amazing.i do take a break from it for a week or two.never went back to flat screen racing.

[@KevinHuff23]

Sick setup, the scary thing is it is ONLY going to get better and more realistic with the evolution of better graphics cards, game engines, faster internet speeds with lower latency, and improvements to realism programs like Ray Tracing. We are literally in the Atari era of what home racing sims will be in 10 years. A buddy of mine is working with a company that is developing haptic and olfactory engagements, which means you will feel the vibrations in your seat and steering going over rumble strips, you will feel the wind blow through your hair in a convertible, you will smell brakes, clutches getting hot, you will smell burnt rubber from burnouts, the sky is the limit with this technology.

[@radnasty217]

This video just popped in my feed so I checked it out. I was just going to comment on the Heatwave shirt but now I'm convinced I need to build a sim rig haha.

[@afaulkingham4130]

Modded Assetto Corsa is probably the best experience in sim i have had. the community has built a Vast library of tracks and cars.I had 1 tb of mods last year and that was just a small % of what is available. I am addicted to drifting. been doing it almost 4 years now. nothing more exciting than rubbing doors in a cloud of smoke at 60 mph all the way around the track!

[@M4KERB]

that's awesome man, sounds like you found a passion, go with it and who knows where it will take ya. i think i would genuinely react the same way trying VR sim racing for the first time. i've never even tried VR ever.

[@Tyler-ke1ue]

Hey man, this is the first video I've ever seen from you. Loved it! But if you want to enjoy the VR headset even more, then you've gotta replace the stock headstrap my friend. That in itself is a game changer

[@steriltech63]

Man I feel your pain! I don't drive I fly on Microsoft flight sim I use the valve index and the Yaw sim chair and its amazing!!!!!!!!! Dump that cheap quest!!!! and get the Valve index its 10 time better with a wider view... Love this video.....

[@dungeonsofkards]

I had the same reaction with my Rift V1 in 2015. It was INSANE, iRacing has that on the game since 2014. almost 10 years.

[@vex123]

Bruhh, I love your enthusiasm about VR! Thanks for sharing!

[@datboi_t0d]

Dude this hit deep lol, been watching you for a long time. Sold my Logitech driving force GT because it is gear driven and just felt bad. Going to save up and shoot for the Moza R5 Bundle to get in deeper and get the clutch pedal with some cheap quick disconnect wheel on ebay. Couple of tips for making the VR setup easier! Virtual desktop was a game changer when I got my quest 2, lets you stream from PC wirelessly no link cable! You can then get a 30 watt charger brick and it will actually gain battery while playing!

[@zetapal]

Just got my R5 bundle in, USB cable comes tomorrow(needed a long extension) ... spent about 2 years getting my gaming rig up to snuff (3080, 5800x3D, 32 gig ram, Quest 2) ... all set up and ready to go ... built a desktop to clamp everything to ... got a big chair. Probably dive right in tomorrow ... got Asseto Corsi Competition or however you spell it, got Dirt Rally 2 or 4 or whatever on steam ... gonna try it on Wreckfest (love that game) ... maybe even some time on American truck Simulator. I've spent so much time and money building my rig and putting everything together and setting up software that I sort of feel like 'I just build gaming systems, I don't actually play them ' lol ... oh yeah got a pair of VKB NXT Gladiator EVO Omni's hooked in to the rig for some Star Citizen and anything I can find in VR flight/space ... the desk mounts for those come in tomorrow too. Been a long road, almost afraid to start playing, but you look like you're having fun. Thanks for the video, cheers !

[@zetapal]

ps, oh yeah there is a way to set up Wreckfest for VR. Petey over on Paradise Decay did a video on it, I tried it and it works ... haven't used the whell on it yet and don't know how good the FF is gonna be on it but we'll see.

[@Mrrecedinghairline]

Love the videos sense day one Danny boy, I know after a long ass day if there’s a diwd vid it’ll be a chill evening. Keep grinding buddy!

[@HemiHalfCentury]

MAN I've been wanting a setup like that for years and years I'm gonna spec one right now and start saving thx!

[@myhealthobs5290]

Despit3 being a formwr rally driver I couldnt play racing games to save myself, it didn't matter what view I chose, but when I tried VR it was a total game changer. The stereoscopic view means everything becomes real.

[@JustKaiMusic]

Love the videos man. Have you had issues with the moza DD not having FFB in games?

[@cognitonito2695]

my first vr experience was the best moment of my life, it was psvr earlier this year, on ps4 gran turismo sport, i laughed of joy and couldn't believe i was actually inside the virtual world, inside the car and in full size. a few months later i upgraded my pc then bought the hp reverb g2 v2. now i play sim racing vr on pc.
