Two new tracks updated to DX11 "rain effects" in rFactor 2! Check out the full list of updated content released so far..


Following on from the recent December "Rain Effects" build update to rFactor 2, Studio 397 continue to steadily update all the official content of the title, getting the cars and tracks into shape for the new DX11 rain feature standards as the developers look to bring together the full official content roster into compatibility with what was a pretty sizable new build from late last year.

As part of the program of updates, the latest tracks to receive the full wet weather treatment have been both the Palm Beach and Atlanta Motorsports Park locations, both now fully compatible for the new rain effect features as they hit version 2.20 and 1.28 respectively.

Very happy that progress on this great sim continue, thanks Studio397!

*Don't use rain effects during my races though, but still would like to do a Lemans race with rain during one of these times.
