Welcome to the version 3.0 of the RS500 Pack !
This mod enters in a new era as we’ve reworked all cars to make them more closer to the real thing.
Because AC is more than ever a great sim in 2020 (with CM, Shader light Patch and SOL), we want to update this mod to another level.
I work with another modder, Akina Style, to create a new physic with more real datas, improve the 3D model created by ChongMcBong and more…
All cars have Kunos sounds, if you are a sound modder and be able to recreate the original sound, it would be great to work with you.
Special thanks to shadow118 for his work on the rally version skins and to Dirk Steffen for his precious help to fix some issues.
Important note : delete the 2.7 version for a clean install, you can install each car separately.
