Isn't it the fun in recreating?

So, any special tricks needed to convert a track from GSCE to Automobilista or is the process pretty much the same as with all gMotor games?

I would like to bring some of my old rF1 stuff over that I still have the source files for.

For tracks that have already been brought up to SCE standards, I'm finding it as simple as changing these lines in the .scn file. For example:

MASFile=CloudsMed.MAS
MASFile=SkyEuroAltHazy.MAS

Turns into

MASFile=CloudsDefault.MAS
MASFile=SkyNorth.MAS

This has worked pretty much faultlessly for me so far. As far as the visual rubber build up? I don't know what you do. Getting the grip to actually change seems fairly simple, although I'm still experimenting with that.

How about an rF2 track? Is Automobilista using the rF2 engine now?

When You Have 376 tracks to update, a limited time to work on them and need a break after too much work on Barcelona?

NO!

Is Tom Cruise satisfied?

Indianapolis oval is fun as hell with the Formula Retro!

Looks a lot better, right?

You are not the first to say that comment about Tom Cruise.

I always thought he was great in Days of Thunder. But nowadays... it looks like the avatar doesn't do me a favour at all. Haha.

Patrick....I gotta say , you are one of the guys who I consider the heart and sole for this sim. All the work you have done over the past few years has been amazing and hugely appreciated! THANK YOU for all you have done!

Jeff Huber · Mar 11, 2016

Now that I think about it , I do have a question though. I've been kind of out of the loop the past 6 weeks , but for AMS , are you planning on doing any full dirt courses for the super trucks? Actually wondering if anyone has any ideas on making some CORR race tracks?

Anyone know if they plan to use Steam Workshop for this game?

kamackeris · Mar 12, 2016

@Patrick Giranthon you are a legend of gsce... Thanks for hard work! Do you have any plans for sebring?

Gringo · Mar 12, 2016

With the release of the track very close I thought one more video would be a good idea.

Patrick has really done a number on this upgrade to AMS. A lot of bug fixes and many small enhancements and track additions could be noticed.

Be sure to watch in HD!
