    • Excellent Simulator Haptic Pad
Style: Gaming Pad
Next Level Racing HF8 is an excellent product. The only painful thing about this product is Next Level Racing's software. It is horrible. Fear not though, because there is a software that you can download free and use with no limits (and please support the developer by donating) that is one million times better than Next Level's software. Go to Simhub and download their SimHub software. Simhub is a simulator peripheral/accessory software that powers many of today's simulator peripherals, including the HF8 Haptic Pad. And yes, SimHub is well-known and used globally by simulator enthusiasts. Once you have SimHub installed, HF8 will take you to another level of immersion. The problem I have with Next Level Racing's software is that it fails to detect my games that are installed in another drive. It seems Next Level Racing's software only detects games in your C: default drive. When I downloaded SimHub's software, it detected all my simulators, and with a press of a button, configured the simulators to function with my HF8 Haptic Pad...one press and SimHub configured it, plus it offers all types of haptic feedback options, from sending a pulse on the haptic pad whenever you change gears, to experiencing rumble effects when you hit a kerb., grass, dirt, rock. So...to save you the headache and pain...get SimHub's software and use it to run your HF8 Haptic. If you really want to use Next Level Racing's software, good luck and I hope it works for you. I am writing my review based on SimHub's software and HF8's pad so I cannot comment on how Next Level Racing's software works. I feel Next Level Racing's software still needs more work... a lot of work. With the SimHub software installed, you can now truly enjoy HF8 Haptic. I've tested HF8 on the following simulators that I use and they all WORK. Automobilista 2 Assetto Corsa Assetto Corsa Competizione Project Cars 1 Project Cars 2 RFactor 2 Euro Truck Simulator 2 American Truck Simulator F1 2022 Nascar Heat 4 The key to truly experiencing this HF8 is to get a good racing seat. The HF8 comes with three sections of straps to keep your haptic pad in place on your racing seat. The HF8 works best via USB to connect to your PC. You can also connect HF8 to your console via your consoles headphone jack where the feedback relies on audio to generate the haptic effect at a much lower weaker effect- HF8 comes with a input jack to connect your console and an output jack to connect your headphones. PC- USB is the only way to really experience HF8's haptic feedback- it's stronger, more powerful, and yes...MORE immersive. The HF8 comes with a small controller that you use to raise or lower the feedback effect- the LED changes colour depending on your setting -green means light effect, red means POW!!! HF8 comes with its own power supply adapter and has a long USB cable. I use a USB extension cable because I have a large Next Level racing simulator cockpit so I have to run the USB cable all the way around the cockpit to my PC. The HF8 has several haptic pads- two on your shoulders, two on your back, one your bottom, one on your thighs and two on leg area right under near your knees. Using the SimHub software, you can choose which type of effect to experience HF8's power, and how strong the feedback should be. Next Level Racing's software does offer the same feature but as I said, I never got it to work on my setup. Before using HF8 I decided to go out and drive a real vehicle first. I have been driving for 46 years but I still decided to go out and drive my vehicle to get a real-life sense on what I feel when I drive. I started taking mental notes how strong the feedback was when I hit the many potholes we have on our street. I drove on the highway, got a feel of the road impact at a good speed. I tried to feel the rumble of the engine. I did some basic cornering on this road that we have where it has some really good sharp turns. I tried to feel the pulse of the gears when it changed from 1st to second to third to fourth and so on. As soon as I had collected all these mental notes, I went home and then started working on my HF8 settings. I was surprised to see that in reality, I really don't feel the engine rumble on my back, so I decided to dial down the engine rumble on my HF8. I raised the settings on my HF8 for road impacts. So, all these preparations really helped me dial down or up what is close to reality. HF8 is able to give me a close representation of real life feedback when I drive my simulators. The HF8 is a gear that you want to have if you are serious with racing simulators. It pairs well if you have a motion platform installed on your simulator cockpit. Overall, I like Next Level Racing's Haptic Pad. It definitely raised my immersion level to another level. The only challenge with this product is its software, but there is an option you can use. Thank you Next Level Racing. ... show more

    • Good, but not great
Style: Gaming Pad
I've never used haptic vibration before. This pad works for what it is. You can tell the left from rights and fronts to backs for sim racing just fine if you take the time to dial in your settings. The key is to not overload the individual motors with too much processing. Only deducted a star because the motors seem a little weak. If I can tell they are weak (never used haptics as I mentioned earlier) I'm sure someone who has used them won't be impressed in the slightest. Does it make it more immersive and aid in feedback for what the car is doing? Yes absolutely after getting the settings dialed in (I used sim hub) it works for what it is, even if the motors are a little weak. ... show more

    • Great quality and Performance. Using SimShaker For Aviators Instead of Native Software.
Style: Gaming Pad

This is a game-changer for any flight sim or racing simulator enthusiast. The HF8 is surprisingly comfortable to sit on, with a soft and breathable fabric that keeps you cool. The haptic feedback is powerful and immersive, making you feel every bump, turn, and acceleration. It really adds a new dimension to your simulation setup. The only downside is that the software setup is a bit complicated. I decided to use a third-party software called SimShaker for Aviators, which I found to have more options and features than the default one. However, it took a little time to follow the online tutorials and configure everything correctly. Once I did, though, it was totally worth it. Also, the HF8 compliments my Respawn 900 recliner. Even when I am not sim-ing, the HF8 adds comfort and support to the right areas. The HF8 is an amazing product that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a realistic and fun simulation experience. ... show more

It doesn’t work properly after a while, it works for a few minutes then it doesn’t, hardware is okay, software is very poor

    • It's ok
Style: Gaming Pad
So I've been using this for about a month now and I'm ready to give a honest review. After reading reviews of many others I didn't bother with their software and went straight to simhub. I mainly play Assetto Corsa through content manager and F1 23. So far it has worked in both games with simhub. Setup was a bit of a pain because all the wires are made to run out of the right side and my pc is on the left. There is plenty of cord to reach thankfully but it does leave you with little room to put the controller. The power source is big and takes up 2 spots so you can't have anything plugged in next to it. Each motor in the seat can be programed to something like wheel lock or surface feel. The max combo I have found is about 3 different things or everything starts to bleed together. One vibration feels like another vibration and you can't tell them apart. Sometimes it feels a little delayed to what you are feeling in the steering wheel. I have the pro version of simhub and it still lags behind on some things. You would expect a lot of feedback from the wheel telemetry or road surface but it's hut and miss. Will this make you faster? No. Will this let you know how your car is handling. No. Not unless you only have 1 setting on and put brain power into what you are feeling and you are maxing out your brain power taking a corner at 100mph. It does add something to your experience. But don't expect it to tell you a whole lot or think it's gonna make you better. The vibrations all feel the same unless you are really focused on what you are feeling. They all go off at the same power level even if your front is barely losing traction and your rear is fish tailing. Is it worth a 200$ investment? I don't think so. Am I mad I bought it. No. It adds a small feel of realism and that's all we really want in the end. Maybe with some added shakers or kickers it could be better so you can use it just for 1 thing while the kickers tell you another story. TL;DR. It's fun but not worth the 200$ unless you just really want it. Motors aren't powerful and can only run a couple effects at a time before it gets muddy. ... show more
