Driving Simulator. Instead of Flight Simulator. Have the whole world ,or at leat North America to start, at my disposal with all the real highways and cities to cruise around in. I would be more concerened with the scenery accuracy then the physics and ai accuracy but would still like it to be pretty realistic. Simulate driving from Florida to California, gas stops, flat tires, speed limits, construction, traffic all the fun of driving in real. Might need to 100GB of HD space to install this one though!

I like sportscar racing. So having the ability to share a car world wide with 3 other online drivers would be a big feature. (of course real time night lighting, weather and huge fields go without saying) I like Champcars, so having the ability to have a push to pass button for the turbo would be cool. I like F1 so having a feature that forces you to play online with only yourself is not a good idea. Get Bernie out of F1 sims. I like Hemi's. So a classic 1970 Trans Am sim is neato. I like Super Touring Cars. 2 litres of attitude and FWD to whip you back to the racing line. I like Bathurst, Le Mans, Road America. Tracks baby Tracks. Did I mention Can AM? An Auto Sim vs a racing sim? no contest...must be a racer. A classic 'sim' begins to lose it's focus when career movies and outside fluff gets in the way. STill a classic sim can be a dry barren place so to grab the attention of new users, you may need something extra. dave henrie (notice I chose themes and features not intricate complex code which is way to intricate and complex for me to understand)

I have several: 1967/1984/1992 champ cars 1976-1982 F1 (with a preference for 78) 1980-1986 NASCAR trans am (any era) any sort of sportscars from 1967-1972ish type b rally cars Really, my dream sim is less defined by what I'm racing and more defined by the quality of the physics/graphics/multiplayer/interface. I'd toodle around at 80mph in formula fords in a Papy-quality sim.

>Hi all Hey >Well I was wondering what would be everyones dream Auto Simulator?. This >could mean anything from F1 to just a car you own sim !! I would like a game were you could design your own car within a given ruleset. It should also be possible to design car parts, so one could be proud that the God of SimRacing, Whose Name Shall Not Be Given, since it's Greger Huttu, did that new Monza WR on MY tyres. Most of the parts of an engine/gearbox/suspension/whatever should be changeble, choosing between reliability and speed. Then it should be possible to form teams (a bit like the old MoG form known from GPL) and race online. >Also to what level would you draw the line on the word Sim..? There're only 2 simtypes...the ones I like, and the ones I don't like.... Cheers! Remco
When I felt like I could drive well enough in a 'sim' and I mean no typs of driver aids for me or anyone, that is a sim. for those who need driving aids, I suspect that the motorcity online mode would be the best, you know where you hang out a virtual drive thru's or shit like that? Ha! Paulinho enlightened us with:

Any news on that sim development you mentioned a while back? ++ Fillyourboots
My Dream Auto Sim would have: Papy's netcode plus a few tweaks: a few user-friendly server options and the ability to change brake balance in fixed setup races F1C's moddability GTR's graphics and sound Jury still out on physics model

Sim = state of the art in the following - net code physics engine race results and stats plus very good - sound graphics weather (?optional?) The most important thing is that it must not have any smell of alpha or beta code for it to be considered as worthy software whether it be arcade or sim like! It must be good software above all that simply works as it should with NO bugs! The Dream - to have a headset that gives 3D sound and 3D graphics (via goggle monitors) for absolute, tron like, immersion. :)
