Simracing Fov Calculator

[Ophelia Gurin]

Thephysical bike simulator that I developed does not require you to sign up; of course, it is free to use. I will skip the listing of scientific formulas that I used since there are a lot of prominent physics formulas related to cycling, a lot of calculation programs, and cycling experts here. Before I start explaining my simulator/calculator, I want to let you know that this simulator contains many calculations and modeling that are based on my own perspective and the ballpark input that was inspired by various cycling experiments.

It is hard to list all, but this simulator contains a lot of one-tracked experiments, subjective ideas, and some data sets that are altered. Please be mindful when using this: It was a way to make a better simulator. I was not a physics guy during my college time so this simulator will not be the most accurate simulator in terms of physics. However, I am proud and confident that this simulator is the most easy-to-use and detailed simulator.

I have collected several famous segments list from strava for my calculator: For each country and city, the well-known segments are already set in my simulator program so you can easily search them and put the distance traveled and the altitude. All geographical data is not always accurate and I was not able to put all the environmental factors which might cause the record difference, but if it is a steady hill-climb, the estimation will be pretty accurate

I have updated the simulator with the headwind value. However, this is just a simple formula that excludes the headwind value from the speed value. I am still trying to find more scientific and hydromechanical-related research.

Setting the correct field of view (FOV) for your sim racing game is key to ensuring you can judge distances accurately. Use the tool below to correctly calculate the field of view setting for all sim racing games.

To use the calculator below, simply measure the distance you sit to your screen, and measure the size of your monitor / TV. Once you input both of these values, the FOV calculator will tell you your ideal FOV setting for the specific sim racing game you are playing.

It is best to set the correct realistic field of view to replicate your real life vision. This way you wont need to adjust to the incorrect field of view. Instead you will be able to drive as accurately as real life.

I have this curious problem while analyzing data from a simulation run. I select the appropriate run directory using the results browser, then select the waveform of interest and start to manipulate it using the Calculator. Now, all of a sudden, the calculator has selcted another simulation run directory which I did not actually want and of course complains that the signals of interest are not there in the results! I have to close the additional run directory in my browser, reselect the original one, and then repeat the process.

Unfortunately, I have no possibility to do that. I can start Virtuoso only from a predefined design environment. It is not possible to launch the tool directly. I would imagine that the design environment will be updated once (eventually).

Hi Vivek

You can still check the version using "virtuoso -W". Would you please provide more details for the following comment?

>>Now, all of a sudden, the calculator has selcted another simulation run directory

I mean the specific steps which led to the above problem. Thanks.

Best regards

As soon as the waveform is plotted in the window, I can see that the results browser has opened an additional run directory "results_x", and set the context to this one. So, if I were not careful and tried to plot something further, it wouldn't work. I need to close "results_x", reselect "results_select" and proceed further.

The only connection I can see is that "results_x" contains data from the last schematic which I had directly simulated (via GUI) in ADE-L. So somehow, the tool remembers the last simulated schematic and keeps selecting it per default.

Hi Vivek

Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce the problem using IC614-508. There are also no reports of similar issues in our database. Actually there should not be a need to close the wrong database. You can simply reselect the correct results directory from the browser. Would you please help to do the following?

a. Start a new session of Virtuoso

b. Open results browser and open the results directory

c. Plot a waveform

If the results brower now shows the wrong directory, please upload the CDS.log file. Please try not to do any unnecessary actions so that we can have a clean log file.

Best regards

However, I noticed that if I once start an ADE-L session in any other design, and then am done with it (have closed it completely), ADE-L goes on to load this design again and again. Here's an extract from the log at the point where this happens although I doubt if this is of any help:

The message about the runObj file is benign, but the issue is that ADE L is designed to access the results from ADE, not the results from arbitrary places. So doing things in ADE will automatically set the results browser to point to the place where it expects to find the results. It would be rather annoying for an ADE user if it didn't.

You could always just open the results using "viva" standalone, or even just launching the results browser from the Tools menu in the CIW. However, if ADE is running, ADE will be in control. There's only ever a single results browser, so the current directory gets switched by the active ADE session.

admittedly, that would be a way out. And I was using "viva" earlier. However, I find it a bit more problematic. First of all, I do not see the "stack" for my calculator, which I find rather useful. And secondly, and this is more important, I could not get the calculator to perform trivial arithmetic manipulations on my data and plot the results without causing it to crash with a core dump and a message

Now, neither of the two cases is likely. When running the calculator out of ADE-L on the other hand, I was able to get everything to plot correctly (no problems there). For reference, all I was trying to plot something as trivial as "signal1+signal2" was enough to get viva to crash.

a bit late in responding, but I wanted to wait and check to be sure that the problem really went away with this solution. So, "viva -expr skill" works out, even if it is a bit slow in loading. the problem is gone.

This Field of View (FOV) calculator will help you setup your screens for sim racing, giving you a correct feel within the sim that will help you become faster and more consistent. Don't want to read all this? Watch my video on how to setup FOV in iRacing instead! Supported sims: iRacing, more coming soon! If this page or video helped you out, consider donating to my channel, it really helps me out and allows me to continue making these kinds of videos.

Once you have the above set in iRacing correctly and you have made sure your monitor angles match the above angle, you now need to make sure your horizon is set correctly, based on your height against your monitors. This will prevent warping on your side monitors.

My best tip is to jump in a car and open up the camera tools (CTRL F12). Adjust the Vanish Y, until everything across all monitors looks straight. Once you have a number that works, set only half of that number to Vanish Y.

Now we will adjust the driver head rotation (Orient P). Use this same halved number and multiply it by 0.3, this will give you the driver head rotation number. This will align the monitors to the original number that made your monitors straight, but also keep the driver's eye line to the horizon.

This is a calculator that calculates the lowest price that a Fast Friend of each tier can be acquired, what the setup required would be, along with the price and chance of the upgrade succeeding. It takes in either of the following:

The calculator takes into account every possible combination of Fast Friends, and every possible combination of the amount of Fast Friends used for the upgrade, and gives the amount of RSR that the upgrade would cost, taking into account how much each individual Fast Friend used would cost, as well as the cost of the upgrade attempt and the chance of the upgrade to be successful.

This tool will allow you to make a simulation of your Erasmus+ Grant. You will receive an estimate based on your mobility type, duration and location. We take into account some background information to tailor it as closely as possible to reality.

This Erasmus+ Grant calculator simulates the potential grant that you can receive and is based on the overall information available in the Erasmus+ programme guide. These conditions can be adjusted by your university; contact your international relations office for more information.

Nor Erasmus Student Network; nor the European Commission can be held accountable for the simulations provided here. The goal of the simulator is to make the Erasmus+ grant information more transparent so students understand how it works. The actual Erasmus+ Grant will be calculated by your university. Do you find significant differences; ask your University/institution; ESN representative or National Agency for more information.

The Erasmus Generation Portal is the home of the people of the Erasmus Generation. The portal is developed by the Erasmus Student Network (ESN), the biggest student-led NGO in Europe in the field of mobility, and aims to be the place where anyone wishing to study abroad can easily access all relevant information. It is made by students, for students.
