rFactor - a wish list :-)

I got my sFactor running well, thanks to the ras! And I loaded the 2 tracks and the European F3. Great stuff! Now there is new hope after the GPL! ;-) Here is my wish list: Cars: 67 F1 car set 65 F1 car set 72 F1 car set the front engine car set of about 50's the car set about 30's the car set of modern F1 Tracks: Monza, Spa, Mosport, Zanvort, Nurnburgring of 67 Monza of 97? (before spoiling the 1st chicane) Road Atlanta Imola of 67 And lots more... ;-) Arto --

Not much then... :) Nice list btw, if modders are reading this then get back to work...

Brighter headlights, or at least illumination farther/wider ;) "Arto Wikla" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wikla.1126893731@wrl-55...

Have seen some films where the lighting seems better. Wishes: 1- Less opaque shadowing 2- Off track driving more destabilizing 3- Lap times shown on replays As far as the F1 mods are concerned, I believe any season subsequent to '80 runs afoul of current licensing agreements.

I tried it on a rig with a 9700p and my main gaming rig running a 6800gt and each seems the same. In the replay the distance looks correct but in-car it doesnt seem quite right. The illumination seems to just end abruptly instead of gradually fading into the distance. Mitch <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Yes, I am located in Belgium and I do appreciate numbers and dates being represented as is customary here, but I do prefer to use WinXP in English, using an US qwerty keyboard (<--and, through specifically ordering it, it physically is). rFactor recognises my keyboard as azerty, wich is a right pain in the arse, both in terms of default key assigments as in typing stuff in the game. Bloody fix this ISI. 2) the "rumble strip pull factor" still does not change sign in accordance with one selecting a negative (or positive) value for force feedback strenght in he game. Hitting peaks of a rumble strip forces the concerned wheel upwards, therefore pushing the car AWAY from the rumble strip instead of pulling it on it (Logitech wheels). Bloody fix this as well, it's only been in the game since F1 2k1. 3) "dead time" between sessions should either be longer or server side selectable. As an online community we do like to congratulate the polesitter, finish our lap in warm-up (or our "in" lap after a race). Futhermore we'd like to comment on the race we've just finished before the server rolls over to the next event. For pick-up racing the current timetable is adequate, but for league racing GPL-like margins should be allowed. Only requirement to beat GPL in this respect is for a "server boss" to be able to override the session time-out without losing relative positions due to times posted in the previous session. 4) retain disconnected driver or voluntary DNFs on merit of laps completes in the resu;ts.. Apart from these, it's almost GPL perfect, provided the server is well configured and provided host as well as clients have a very good connection. Jan. =---

Mmmmm, not a good sign, just ordered a 6600. There seems a dark color cast to the game; the shadows are bottomless and the nights moonless. RFactor's definitely a work in progress.

Suzuka! Suzuka! Suzuka!

I would like it if the online opponents's suspension would move. Cheers! Remco

As much as I hate to do it I guess our only option is to increase gamma and turn everything a shade of gray.

It's a nice feature to have. Alanb

<snip> Jan, I assume you have the full version now. Your views compared with the demo and other sims?

Actually it is not. But I expected such a response, from a GPLer whose primary purpose in life is to be condescending and mawkish (in regards to GPL). Alanb

Now, Alan - since your newsreader lops off everything after "thesimwhichcannotbenamed", however did you manage to read that message? ;-)

But I'm happy to accept the rFactor is better.
