I've found learning in VR so useful. Not being able to see the telemetry immediately on the screen using an overlay (it is possible but I don't) really helps me actually feel what I'm doing. If I need to look at telemetry I'll look on VRS after a session but learning new tracks without overanalysing your inputs too much has helped me a lot.

VR racing with no hud is actually genius, I can't believe I never thought of it. While handy, the iracing hud elements in VR are a little distracting, how they float in space on top of the car interior.

😃 From a viewer's point of view, IMO, this was among the best-looking VR races I've seen, especially how I could see wider, as in not from one eye or the other (usually left) w/ races in VR, but from the center, as opposed to a wider FOV setting from one eye. Vids I've seen where the KZitemr digitally merged the two together, I would get a similar center point of view, but w/ the image there would be a vertical area of distortion on either side of center ~ 3/7 & 5/7 from the left (or right). Personally, I think one undisturbed image out of one of the eyes is better, preferably whichever eye would be closest to the center (right eye for left side driver and left eye for right side drivers). The FOV setting looked wider than normal to me making things in the distance look smaller than normal, harder to see components of the car or it's colour scheme, but then increasing in size quickly (way more than normal) esp as you got close enough that a collision was highly likely if the other driver unexpectedly hit the breaks. I don't know if this is from you using a diff FOV than normal or the physical/ software/ settings of this headset. The image seemed too bouncey. I've heard this is common w/ VR for the viewer, but not noticed as much by the player and can be smoothed out w/ software after the fact. I may have gotten used to the bouncing image bk as the race progressed it was less irritating than at the beginning of the race.

You need a better headset than anything by DPVR. Their displays are cheap triple stripe LCD and the genuine FOV is 95 degrees not 116 as they claim in the literature. (116 is diagonal, which is not a valid comparison.) They also only use one display for both eyes rather than two separate displays. This causes distortion issues. Basically, if the set was $200, it would be a good budget VR set. At a price equal to or higher than vastly more technically advanced HMDs, it is a no-buy. Do not take my word for it - see vr-compare website for the dirty details.

This is how I race as well (I even turn off chat/incident messages), which is why I got involved with making changes to CrewChief, so Jim can give me all the info that was previously missing. e.g. in the release candidate he will tell you if the car ahead is a lap down and if the car behind is coming to lap you; things we're blind to without the relative. I have a button bound to let me talk to Jim, but it takes a bit of time to get the speech recognition working properly, but it's fully customisable and you can whittle it down to a very minimal set of commands which also serves as a cheat sheet of what's available. It's also possible to ask for weather and damage reports from the iRacing spotter without him being able to say anything else, but it's a bit fiddly so I'll leave that for another day. I'd be very interested to hear your comparisons with other VR headsets. I use a Meta Quest 3 myself but the vendor lockin is a pain in the butt (when facebook goes down, you can't simrace because of the way it needs to be logged in) and it's very fiddly to setup, plus it has a huge draw on the CPU with enough latency to matter at the sharp end. But its optics/FoV are absolutely unrivalled, I've been trying out the BigScreenBeyond recently but the face scanning tech isn't there yet so I have send it back to get a better fit (it also has interference from the direct drive which means getting ferrite core inductors for the cables, and the FoV seems really really small compared to the MQ3). I keep watching what Primax are up to but they seem quite far behind the curve. This headset you've tried is new to me, so I'm keen to hear what you think. For me the ideal headset would be if the MQ3 was a dumb device that just took a cable, like the way the old vives used to work. Nobody wants a metaverse, they just want to jump into a game.

A bunch of stuff like button bindings stay the same though, that's be a lot of work to change so I just made all my wheels agree with CC like the tail wagging the dog. I'm guessing you're wanting him to be more chatty in VR or something? The voice recognition and setting up iRacing to have a minimal spotter is common to both, I'll put up a forum post when the main release comes out. The thing I find myself wanting the most is different profiles for road vs oval but the trainee chief voicepack is addressing that mostly and it can be set to trigger based on metric vs imperial units. You'll see that when the release lands, the new voice is pretty cool.
