It gives me the impression that iRacing is only going to
produce or license code for commercial simulators or
pay to play arcade systems or something.
Anyone know what the scoop is with DKs company ?
Have they changed there original plans after changing there
name from first ?
Maybe they're waiting the release of rFactor to see what is offered by
another company. I'm certainly eagerly awaiting their upcoming sim.
P.S.

I will say though, that Papy/Kaemmer have done many things extremely
well, the best controller code, the best multiplayer code, the best FF
until RBR or GTR.
I am the middle of the road kinda guy. I race Papy more with leagues
and race ISI stuff more offline. Go figure.

Even rFactor, which I think has improved the base set by previous ISI
sims somewhat in terms of the main things that bothered me (the "feel"
of the car and the net code) still lacks something in terms of the raw
driving experience for me. The ultimate test of any sim for me is
whether I can load up a test session and spend an hour driving alone
and actually feel like I accomplished something. I don't know why, but
I've never felt that way about any ISI sim, rFactor included.

And nothng wrong with that.
