RC Sim VRC Pro Out On Steam




Now if your new to VRC Pro, well your not alone. I never heard of it and I've owned several real RC Cars, raced on local tracks and still own a HPI Baja 5b.

This simulation is all about replicating RC cars, buggies etc.. and even allows you to use a real life Radio Controller that plugs into a VRC USB Adaptor you can get from VRC Pro directly. Pretty cool! Many RC enthusiast use this sim to practice racing to get a competitive edge before running on their local race track. I can see the adaptor being used as a great tool. Lets say your son, daughter, wife, etc.. want to buy an expensive RC. You can just buy this sim, get any radio controller and plug this adapter in. You will learn to control an RC before you spend hundreds of dollars which as I know turns into thousands of dollars for this awesome hobby.

If you ever thought of playing with RC's you should pick this Simulator up.

Check it out on Steam or the RC racing community. Also read about this game from Steam's page below.

Dirt 3 Complete Edition Back on Line for Wheel owners



Yes! Alright Dirt 3 Complete Edition is back online with a patch from the developers. The problem was customers including myself with various wheels manufactures would have the wheel pulling to the right as if you had a right front flat tire. Didn't matter what setting you changed, unless you turned off the (FF) Force Feedback the issue was their. Which for a driving game there is no use in playing it without FF. Duh! 
Well glad to see the developers now fixed it. Enjoy drifting again my friends! 
Check it out on STEAM for only $29.99

Developer notes below:

[developer] 10 hours ago

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce that we've just set the FFB patch live and it should automatically download for you shortly.

Here's the patch notes

FFB Fix – (Wheel Input) – Resolved instances of certain steering wheels pulling to the extreme right.

We have however had the following known issue crop up – Logitech Formula Force EX Force Feedback Wheel under certain circumstances is not detected. (We're still looking into that one so please let us know if it affects you)

Please be sure to let us know if you experience any further problems and thanks again for being so damn awesome!

Let me know if it is working (or not) for you and sorry it took so long.
