Originally started in October of 2012, /ovg/ was the result of Forza 4 threads dying due to the release of Forza Horizon, and /o/ needing a place to talk about automotive vidya. /ovg/ functions as a place to talk about automotive vidya like everywhere else does, except we're on 4chan.

What Wheel is gud?

Check out this doc or the outdated Looking for a Wheel page.

Mumble Server

Download Mumble and install it. Make sure you have push to talk enabled.

Click Server > Connect > Add New

  • Address: mumble.get-good.net
  • Port: 64738

Add a label for your own use and your username and you're done.

When connecting you'll get a warning about mis-matching certificates. That's just because I've used the get-good.net domain instead of the mumble host's domain.
