World sports cars gone quiet - any updates?

by Matt » Tue, 11 Sep 2001 18:48:10

Has anyone heard any new updates about World Sports Cars lately, all seems
to be quiet at the moment? I have been visiting the usual websites for any
recent updates, including the west-racing site (has that EVER been
updated?), and there hasnt really been anything for the past few months. I
remember reading a rumour somewhere (on RAS I think) saying that Empire had
dropped WSC but I havent read anywhere to confirm this (and I hope this isnt
the case).

BTW before anyone jumps on me I'm not trolling, just genuinely interested in
any news anyone might have on this pomising title. And I'm not looking for
any WSC flamers either, just the latest info.

Thanks,
Matt.

I think Papy will launch GPL 2 before WSC comes out.

Matt.....

If anyone "flames you" for your post I will be "flaming" them back myself
(and I suspect a few others will join me).  Your question(s) are straight
forward and you are clear about what you read/heard/saw as being
rumor/speculation, and so forth (IMHO).  Thank you......for a refreshing
post about WSC......which are too few, and too far in-between.

To answer your question:  The latest news I am aware of is on Eric Cote's
website:  http://www.simracingmag.com/

At least, this is the latest comprehensive and detailed information that I
have seen about WSC.  Eric doesn't "date" his web pages or articles.....so I
can't tell you when this information was posted on his site.  My best
guess.....was about a month ago.  There may be more updated information
available on various Forums (*High Gear* and *Sim Racing Mag* are the best
ones to watch for WSC development news......in my opinion), but I have not
checked them in a couple weeks....you might want to do that yourself along
with going to Eric's website and reading his WSC development progress update
as indicated above.

I am intentionally not summarizing Eric's article for you here.  Sorry, but
even though I would not intentionally try to put my "spin" on his
information......editorializing is too easy to do.  Eric's article already
has his "spin" on the information.  There's no sense in layering that with
my "spin" on top of it, you know?

If you come across some new bit of information, could you come back and post
a link to it hear....so we can all go read it for ourselves as well?  That
would be great!

Regards,

Tom

I think you mean, Papy will launch GPL 2 before f1rc's patch comes out. :)

I think many would like to see the game come out but are discouraged as I
am. It seems to be continually pushed back and not much information is ever
released. People are tired of waiting and talking about it. It has gotten to
the point that I figure it will come out someday maybe. Until then I will
just race with what is on the market now. I have lost interest.

Looks like Active labs has a copy of WSC:
