GTR2 GET REAL PHYSICS MOD

GTR2 GET REAL PHYSICS MOD 1.3

Login or Register an account to download this content
The most advanced physics mod ever developed for GTR2. Refer to the documentation for more info. Features easy installation in 2 steps. What can you expect?

Most accurate representation of these cars ever developed for any game. Improved driving feel. Cars are easier to drive in slow corners now due to new tire model and have better mechanical grip. In high speed corners they are more of a challenge due to more realistic aerodynamics. All of this is not coincidental but backed by real data. In original game situation was exact opposite as you would get more stable car in the corners the faster you go which is obviously false. Now you can actually lose rear of the car when entering a high speed section and not having enough wing. Before you would just drive wide and into a grass.

Car behavior under acceleration and braking is much more intuitive due to utilization of proper slip curves which were not implemented in original data. In addition its possible to powerslide now and its easier to control the car on the limit. Improvements in aerodynamics and drivetrain simulation have made cars perform much closer to reality than was the case before. I have updated tech specs page for every car in case you want to compare their data.

Here are the comparison lap times because picture is worth more than a thousand words. This mod also features vastly improved AI which makes multiclass endurance racing possible. AI cars now use more playerlike physics and no longer cheat like was the case before. They will provide a real challenge.

It worth 10 stars but I can only give 5! This mod has transformed an already good, nostalgic sim into something that is on par with modern sims (or even better than some...). Thank you for your amazing, hard work! Everybody who owns GTR2 must try this!

I am glad you appreciate my hard work!
What can I say, the physics are top-notch. And compared to last version, the lap times are even closer to reality now. The only thing I'm concerned about is that with the NGT Porsche GT3 (non-RSR), there are supposed to be two different specs of car with that, and obviously base game (and this mod) only deem it as one. But essentially there are GT3 R's (older car introduced in 1999) and GT3 RS's (newer car introduced in 2001, with subsequent upgrades in dashboard and a sequential gearbox instead of it's debuting H-pattern up to 2003). Also, as one of the documents mentioned about how the MC12 differs from 2004 to 2005 (namely it's diffuser), I am wondering would other seasons eventually get added to this? As other seasons would greatly benefit other mods.

I am aware of the 2 different versions of the GT3 but there were no practical differences, since RS also used H pattern gearbox for most of the 2003 season so I have modeled it as such. In the future dashboard differences will also be included as part of overall game improvement, physics being only one part of it. But I don't plan to add any other season.
One of the best physics mod! You can now really feel the car, and the differences between them. A Lister Storm is a beast, capable of winning races, while a Porsche 993 GT2 struggles even against NGT cars. A 5 stars mod!
excellent!!
As you can tell by reading the accompanied documentation this has been a labour of love. A lot of work has gone in to this, and luckily not for nothing, the cars feel amazin on track. You can really push them to their limit and feel just how much grip is left. When you lose the car you know exactly what you did wrong. Imo a lot of the newer sims don't feel half as good as GTR2 with this mod.
Excellent for me, the cars are making a lot more sense when you drive them now. This mod deserves more attention, so you really should explain better what you did in the desciption of your mod here at racedepartment.
Thanks!
Well... I think this is my very first review here (but I'm nobody so who cares? :) )... first thing first 5 stars just for the effort, time, patience, work you put in this amazing job you did. I think the "step 2" in the installation steps is not very clear, I don't know if I did something good or wrong at that point. But, I tried the Lambo Reiter and it felt awesome. It is like driving a rocket on straights but you have to be gentle and careful on fast corners. Brakes are a real challenge, you have to modulate even more now. It really is A LOT of fun to drive. I'm going to test all the cars in the next days, but I'm pretty sure they'll be a blast to drive. If you could be so gentle to better explain that installtion "step 2" it'd be awesome. Thank you very much, you really gave fresh air to this sim.

Thank you for your comments! In Step 2 of installation you have to first MOVE Jmb550 and Wieth folders to a new location called Ferrari 550 Teams 2 and then COPY all the other files I have listed as well.
Thanks a lot.
