An unofficial native port of the arcade racing games San Francisco Rush: The Rock and San Francisco Rush 2049, named Project R, is available for PC users on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Players need to obtain the game's ROM file as the project does not include any game assets. The technical requirements include a dedicated or integrated GPU supporting Vulkan 1.2 and a CPU meeting the x86-64-v2 microarchitecture level. Project R supports gamepads and wheel setups but not keyboard and mouse functionality. The latest version, V0.7.1, includes improvements such as a refined world object rendering system, faster texture conversion functions, and consistently high-detail rendering of player car models in SF2049.

Want to try your hand at racing games or give the gift of sim racing to someone special? Here’s my sim racing starter pack from the Cyber Monday deals

Sim racing enthusiasts can find various deals on racing wheels and accessories. Essential gear for newcomers includes a racing wheel and pedals, with the Thrustmaster T128 recommended as a budget-friendly option for beginners. It features hybrid force feedback and comes with Thrustmaster T2PM pedals. For intermediate users, the Moza R5 Bundle offers a direct drive wheel base with powerful force feedback, and the first recommended upgrade is the 'Performance Kit' with a load-cell brake kit. The Monoprice Dark Matter GT stand is suggested to prevent pedal slippage, while the Playseat Trophy Logitech G Edition provides a premium setup but lacks compact storage.
