hello, first of all I would like to send million thanx to the author of the mod! He made my dream of driving these cars true! Second, I want to ask since I am a mainly rFactor player, is this mod working in Race 07? Also, can someone help EVO to convert this mod exactly as it is for rF?

Cheers and looking forward to those addon cars like BMW 320STW, Peugeot 306 S2000, etc

Andreas has kindly made a small change to both cars and I feel this has helped especially with the Volvo which is now easier to do consistant laps in without fear of the back end letting go,

What changes are these? Do i need to download a file or can i make the changes myself? Love the mod but the Volvo is VERY tail happy so I would like to sort this out as its my fav car!

Changed the sound to Volvo the game one too, very easy, but i guess Andreas isn't allowed to include it on his version to download.

 

[AndreasFSC]

That's right, I can't use anything from Volvo the game, but you can change it yourself.
I have changed the downforce balance for the volvo and ford, but this isn't available for download yet, because David and his friends will test it first. When we are happy with the changes there will be a new update for the mod.
And I have made some graphical updates too

 

[Marko Popovic]

for some addon cars, in future, i would suggest:

- BMW 320 STW
- Alfa Romeo 155 STW
- Honda Accord 1999 version
- Toyota Carina
- Volvo 850
- Vauxhall Cavalier

Your a star Andreas! Look forward to the update!

Is any one able to post (or PM me) on how to steal the steering wheel from volvo the game for this mod?
Thanks in advance!

Well tonights club race went really well. Some real great racing with these cars on Istanbul.

Only problem was the setup configuration. This was due to the fact that 12.5 was the highest you could put the steering lock at, and thats really too low for touring cars. I run it at 20.0 in the WTCC Alfa Romeo 2007.

Other than that real great job and I look forward to any updates on this mod, like more cars from the super touring era.

 

[AndreasFSC]

Thank you

The reason for the turning lock is that the wheels would turn through the front wings(?) otherwise.
Take a look here:

The chassis of the honda allows a higher steering lock.
The rules were changed for the '99 season.

Hey Andreas, congrats on completing the mod. I've been following your progress closely, and for a first-timer, you've done an absolutely brilliant job. :thumb:

For the last couple of days I've been working on a skin of Mark Lemmer's #16 privateer Vectra for you.

I'll keep you posted.

Pat.

 

[AndreasFSC]

Nice, thank you
I will include it in my next release then!

 

[Pat O'Reilly]

No worries mate. Happy to help.

I'm making steady progress with the skin, so hopefully I can post it here soon.

 

[AndreasFSC]

I have made A LOT of changes to the materials. Now there's two types of paint, solid and metallic. The s40, the a4 and the 406 got the new metallic paint.

The metallic cars are not this bright all the time, I used this camera angle just to show the difference.

Mark Lemmer is added to the game now, and he waits impatently for his new car livery
Will you make the windows too?

Take a look here:

After crashing headlong into the pit wall multiple times when coming out of my garage, I wondered how they managed to get the things turned around! Now I know and my mind is at rest... :tongue:

Here are the new beta physics files for the volvo and the ford.
If everyone (almost) are happy with them, they will be included in the next update.

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

Dang, I just packed away my wheel... I'll test these physics when I can.

Haha, sorry to keep you waiting mate. I'll post some screenshots shortly.

Yes, windows are made.

 

[AndreasFSC]

No need to hurry

Very good

The 22nd spot on the grid will now be filled by...
#16 - Mark Lemmer, Mint Motorsport Vauxhall Vectra.

It's almost complete. I'm just finishing off the interior now, but that won't take too long.

This skin was so bloody hard to make! Most of the logos were very difficult to find, so I found myself having to create many of them from scratch. I still tried to make the livery look as realistic as possible.

Screenshots aren't great, the car isn't as dark as it looks in those pics. It looks better when you're playing.

I hope you guys like the skin.
