THANK YOU MEMBERS! - Hry
A tip that I don’t think everyone knows about is that control bindings can be combinations of buttons. For example, I use the push button input on my 7 way switch as a modifier button. This acts like a shift button on a keyboard. I can hold this button in combination with other buttons to give them another layer of functionality. This is really useful if you have a steering wheel without a lot of buttons.
Good to know - thanks!
Yup I do this
Learned something new. Underrated comment.
Wow game changing, thanks!
Yeah you can use the directional pad on the Logitech too.
The GRP thing is also a great way to race with friends. You can join your own somewhat private session and crack on however you'd like. No need to pay for a hosted session.
I haven't played iRacing since 2020 bc I sold my sim equipment after I moved to a smaller space. However, I wanted to drop in your video to give you some support. Some day I'll have the space to do some sim racing again! And when the day comes, I'll be sure to go back to this video. Thanks for all the awesome content!
A game changing tip I just found out about is active reset in test sessions. Saves so much time when learning parts of a track!
Thanks. Didn't know about that. I always thought this should be a feature.
Active Reset has been in the sim for a while now! I never hear people talking about it, it's so useful.
Where is the active reset?
@@offswitch1 You have to bind it, it’s in the controls menu
I did not know about Tip #3, and I always wondered why iRacing didn't allow a few extra minutes of time between these types of open to fixed races such as the porsche cup and gt3 series. But now I have the option to join anyway, albeit with only 1 lap to qualify. Thanks Ollie!
Now I got one tip for you, fuel till the end of the race, thanks Dave! 😂
THANK YOU! I have been wanting to know how people do the “dual register” trick and was always scared of hitting forfeit haha
To add to the crashes one, you can use an xbox controller and bind a button to skip to the next incident or the previous incident aswell. Just go to controls and bind it to whatever button you want to on an xbox controller you have connected to your pc. Hope this helps
or just ctl 3 or ctl 1 to advance or reverse to the incidents
Definitely need a part 2! Just getting into iracing at the moment and I want to soak up as much info as possible. Keep up the great work Ollie!
If you want to watch crashes after your race Dave Cam style there are toggles in options for incidents
Does that toggle ever bug out for you? Where pressing “next incident” only moves the replay forward 5 seconds or so?
@@djsuupaa Yeah, happens quite often for me that it only stays on the currently selected driver and skips forward by a bit. Only fix that I know is quitting and re-starting the replay to go through the incidents. Is that what you meant?
@@djsuupaa it's a known bug. Still unfixed after quite a few years.
@@marvinkruse yeah that’s exactly what I meant. Thanks for the info on it Daz
Doing Iracing for a couple of years now, never knew there was a options for more Practise sessions within the practise session.
Basic Ollie keeps blowin' my mind!
Did i mention, the best iracing content on the interwebs?
Proud to be a Member :)
Been on iRacing for years yet I just learned 6 new things haha thank you great video
I stopped watching tip videos some time ago, but this caught my attention. You’ve come a long ways since I first subscribed 👍
Thanks mate, didn’t know about the practice within practice tip, or joining another session whilst still in your own. Thanks again and very helpful
Top tier tips! Really helpful 👌 Thanks so much Ollie!
Super useful, thanks! I was so confused at how you entered consecutive imsa races
This is great, thanks for sharing Ollie - cheers!
Thanks for the helpful tips!! Practice alone and dual registration in particular 👍🏼👍🏼🏁
I must say that yout tips about IMSA Open to fixed is amazing!
And as a starting streamer your blinking cars solution is a big plus for content.
Yeah but you can’t do proper qualifying on most tracks
Awesome, you helped me out with the joining different sessions a week or so when you arer streaming. while they are not the main things people ask, these things are soo useful! ggreat tips Ollie!
NOOO GRP 16 WILL BE RUINED WHYYYY
The very first one is absolutely great! ❤
The focus crashes tip is amazing, thank you
Whow, nice to know these little things. Thank you
Always happy for more tips. 😀😀😀
Brilliant tips
Awesome tips I ACTUALLY didn’t know about! Thanks Ollie!
Thank you 🙏 Ollie some great tips mate !!! 😜👍🇦🇺
Regarding the "seeing all cars"; sounds exactly like the old Grand Prix Legends bandwidth patch that allowed you to see more than the default number of opponents online.
This might be the best tips video ever 👏
Great tips. 🔥
Tip 1 I had no idea about. Thanks
1, 2, 4(!!), 5 and 6 were new to me. Thanks. :)
Good video. More content like this 👌🏽
Great tips ty
great vid tbf. played for years and still learned some things.
Fantastic tips. I did not know 3 of them. Dang. Thanks bro.
Omg... Not exaggerating when I say the way to find race start times may have just changed my life 😂 cheers
Nice! Didn't know most of these
With regards to tip 6 the newest UI update gave us the 'Spectate Sessions' feature - it takes the guessing out of finding out which split you're in and also tells you SoF, number of drivers, session ID etc along with allowing you watch any of them. Very nice QoL addition.
Well I've learnt something 😊 cheers Ollie 👍
I literally didnt know any of these. Lol. Thanks man
11:30 I've been wanting this forever! And it was always there.
14 year Sim racer, did not know about tip no1! Thanks
somw useful tips there, especially for me as a pretty new racing driver
Woah! Had no idea about the connection speed! I got wiped out by an invisible car just last night. Top tip!
Wow I did not know about getting a empty practice sessions, wow great tips for joining 2 sessions
I love your tips
👀
You can also use Control 3 to go to crashes also. I use Right control and 3 on the number pad.
They should have these in a raider format for people to use, however thank you for the useful tips
That was good
You can run different paints for different series on trading paints
Another tip is joining a race as a ghost. You can join a race and make a test drive as a ghost so that other drivers do not see you but you see the other cars.
You're driving as a ghost so you cannot damage or hinder other drivers, it's very nice for testing and find some speed..
woooww first tip did not known that😮
Question. I bought a car and a track. The dallera track and car. I bought it yesterday and I don’t have either one. Do you know why?
Ollie what seat do you have with the omega prime?
Can you dual register while in the lobby of your split during practice, qualifying , and race? Or can only do this during the race? Additionally, can you dual register once the race session loads and you are sitting idle on the grid waiting for everyone to join before the pace car pulls away? Trying to figure out ways to do this not while racing, because I almost always undercut in the pits to get more clean laps.
You forgot a timestamp at 8:40 for the "Showing All Cars (No Blinking)" tip.
3. Better option is to bind keys showing "next" or "previous incident".
4. Have that on maximum, still get gaps of replay during enduros. I guess it's just iRacing things
For the time slots of the special events races, DON'T trust the banner in the UI! With my mate we were sad to prepare for bathurst 1000 but the first timeslot in the banner didn't exist. Sad to miss the opportunity to drive these cars wich doesn't come often...
I've had a few friends not know that some events have multiple time slots, they really should just list them all without hovering for those events.
love the vid, whats the song in the background at 3:22
Not sure but I can check later
How do you get the bottom taskbar to not show up when you alt+tab out to go back to the UI? It always goes into a windowed mode whenever I leave the sim to look at the UI so I just never do.
just hit ALT + Enter to make it full screen again lol.
Great video mate! I actually learned some stuff I didn't know, like the private practice session thing.
For the joining back to back session.... is there a way to bring up the UI quickly in vr???
Not sure bud sorry
I have a Reverb G2, and I have windows+y bound to a single button on my mouse and another button bound to the windows key. I press windows+y to switch focus from desktop to the headset and then I press windows to open the desktop in the headset where I have the iRacing UI ready on my desktop. Just remember to switch back to the sim screen before you close the virtual desktop and put the focus back to the desktop, so your mouse will work in the sim.
Do you think that “music” competing with your voice helps the stream?
“Yes”
we need more tips lol😂
🤯
Tip 7, watch Ollies live streams, and harass him until he puts his dogs on cam (Make them their own channel Ollie !)
Don’t ask him for tips on how to fuel save. He can’t
I'm a simple man. I see Ollie and I dislike
tip 1 should be banned by iracing.
