  1. Thanks Arch for the help, wasn´t aware of the fittings Issues one could have with the alu profiles. Can´t say I am happy to know that now but hey It Is what It Is. 440 USD seems quite reasonable and not as expensive as I though, so yes It looks like a good deal. Ok so you kind of make mods, or 3rd party content for AC? I have bought some from URD (United Racing Design) for rF2 for example and really like them (Scuderia Glickenhaus SCG 007 and Moyoda Hypercar).

    Already been add by @Galileo here on the thread (thanks), just though I would expand on It. SGS NATO´s Nightmare, released... Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1849360/SGS_NATOs_Nightmare/ XTRG Is a veteran wargamer on YT so one can trust his Insight (I do). He has a lot of big wargame campaign gameplays on his channel If one Is Interested. EDIT... Swapped the video for a more recent one and without the bug (fixed).
  3. Thanks @Arch for sharing you´re future set-up (rig). The SimRig looks like a good deal along with the pedals, and If there local even more so. As for Simagic, I also aim for the Alpha Mini with the GT Cup wheel sometime this year, If nothing derails my plans haha! I recently bought a set of LC pedals (DCSimracing DC-1), as this was my weakest link In my beginner set-up. They too are local for me and the price wasn´t gonna break my economy at the time. As for the rig, I might go with the DIY route although I do have some ready mounted options like the NWS Simulator parts (nwssim.com) C2, or the Track Racer TR120. The DIY route Is actually half the price of any rig that I have looked at, you can literally have a 80/40 rig for about €350 and grow on that In the future as you like. Shop ships world wide but shipping cost Is expensive so you do have to get everything right from the get go... Motedis (profile shop): https://www.motedis.co.uk/en?language=en CAD program (rig design): https://maytec.com.de/index.php?id=21? An example of how It´s done In case anyone feels/needs to go the DIY route and wonders what´s to consider... For the monitor, I am sure I will stick to a one monitor set-up only, but even with that If I go the "bigger" monitor route, I would then need to consider a better graphics card which of course will Increase the price of the overall rig. For now I will stick with my 29" monitor. I basically run In rFactor 2, and RaceRoom, with some AC and AMS 2 In between. Just got Into sim racing last year so working on It and loving the ride! It´s something you can spend hours on and personally I find It a lot of fun, be It offline or online. Offline at times can be a bit of a hit and miss due to the AI, but you learn to live with It, and with some tweaking It can be better. When you say professionally my guess Is that It´s online and that you might be In a team. If you do have some online footage of any event you took part In and/or about to take part In feel free to share It with us. I am sure some of us will become a fan of yours! Glad to see someone Is Into sim racing and can share his experience, thanks for sharing Arch!
  4. Cool, hope you can share It with us.

    Beyond All Reason (BAR), Is a free RTS In the likes of Supreme Commander etc... Home site: https://www.beyondallreason.info/
  7. Thanks @Count Sessine glad you like both. Another fav of mine although not free Is Cogmind. This one Is great IMO... Home site: https://www.gridsagegames.com/cogmind/index.html Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/722730/Cogmind/ The only handicap Is the size of the overall map, and by that I mean the resolution but you get use to It. Since you like mechs, you just might enjoy this challenging Sci-Fi rogue like. Has great reviews too.
  8. Silica, did post about this game earlier and well It´s been released In EA, It´s a one man team btw and published by BI. It seems to be another hybrid RTS/FPS which to me Is a welcome to gaming. The RTS has this C&C vibe and some Renegade mechanics to It too. Game looks gorgeous with music to match ala Dune and/or Homeworld Deserts of Kharak. Very promising imo...

  15. It´s EA but so you don´t go crazy figuring It out...
  16. I have only played It a bit In skirmish mode, but I do like what I see so far, and the dev seems very responsive as he Is active on the discussion board getting back to peoples doubts. Game runs good on my older PC on epic mode, although I have only tried skirmish. The recent update has added more army count In campaign ( from 60 to 200) so don´t know If at the higher count my PC will run the same. Looks real nice, runs ok, and weapons seem to act as they should In the sense that they have recoil and don´t look too arcade. Vehicles and Infantry move some what at a RL pace too, I don´t notice much of off the wall game mechanics for a EA game, AI seems ok, at least from what I have played. Yeah there are "some" minor things to address put that´s to be expected. The destructible environment really does add a plus to the game play. Voice acting might be It´s weakest point right now. At It´s price point, there Is quite a lot of gameplay to do, from RTS/management to on the ground FPS with good visuals. As long as the dev keeps a good pace of updates and additions and doesn´t go on a wonky road as "Freeman" did, this could end up being a good game for SP players. If you´re expectations are not to expect a triple A finished game at 23 bucks then I think one can enjoy this game, which does have good replay value too BTW. Either way, you can try It for 2hrs and If not refund It.
  17. If you hold shift key you can set a custom path (waypoints) In tactical mode. Also, holding TAB will bring up the Command Wheel for all you´re Squads on the map, or hold down the number of the Squad to bring It´s Command Wheel up.
