yes strange, 1st time i clicked his link i got the login page, tried a 2nd time and got the correct post lol

 

[Dennis May]

ahh, i really look forward for RFactor 2, cause there should be lot of potential for modders with the new sim

 

[Grant Powell]

Well i hope they polish up the whole product as yes the mods are great but it just does not have the same polish as Simbin titles which i feel it lacks a lot behind to me.

Even GT Legends is more polished and that is an old title

Yes, it seems to be on the registered members page

^^looooool

 

[Patrick van Driel]

Yessssssss

 

[Steve Emmons]

I heard they were working on it. rFactor is pretty cool and would love to see an updated version!

An automatic Track/Car sharing client is a MUST in my opinion so the required files can be "pushed" to you if needed rather than you having to go hunting for updated versions etc.

An option within the host client to specify the location of the files or something similiar.

So when you join the server it can automatically download files for the mod to the client pc.

Aha !! That would be nice,just like in COD4

Yeh its good, but could be difficult because there are two scenarios for getting it to work:

1) A server with a very fast upload so it doesn't affect people already on the server. (Get a high ping because somebody is downloading the mod ingame).

2) Cap the servers upload speed - would mean that the person who is trying to download the mod could be waiting a long time.


Imo this wont be implemented due to these reasons.

Dont realy want this tbh as for sure it will cause alot of servers to lag with the bandwidth being used by people downloading. One of the best points about rfactor is the netcode and I hope they dont mess with it.

Just my opinion :evil:

 

[Patrick van Driel]

Yup, i agree with you there. Very curious about the first screenshots.

 

[Sam Michaels]

they dont give away much in those pictures

they should do it like ID did with the Quake III Arena engien there both ways work
you can redirect to a seperate sever just for filehosting or let it come from the gameserver it self for ppl without a seperate file server

That is a top idea. I like RFactor but always get put off as you need to spend a couple of hours making sure you have got everything before you can start racing. Just the thing to do justive to some of the great mods out there.
