[Chris de Jong]

Below is the slightly updated 2014 race calendar, note that round 4 has switched tracks due to poor/ancient track quality.

I changed grass texture (not everywere, so you can see the difference) to one found in google, start time to 5:00 PM (when F1 race starts localtime) and weather to light cloud and basically thats it, took one hour to do so.

Doesn't look too bad, you agree? If you wish to change your mind I can add sponsor logos and it is ready to go.

^ This...this looks lovely.

I'd much rather have Australia over San Marino.

Although...is the racing line supposed to look like that? I think it needs a fix too.

That is one you will have in replays, famous rfactor 2 bug i believe.

Well I mean, when I looked at my hotlap replay from Shanghai the line is smooth (wherever the path is present, in this case I don't count the cut-offs) but in the video the line is like http://prntscr.com/3jvqf4

Could it be your graphics settings then?

Looks not bad. Is it possible to adjust the color saturation a little down for whole track? It looks a bit like too colourful ^^

That is because Shanghai uses it is own realroad texture I think. This uses rfactor 2 default by the looks of it.

yep, i think it is not generally too colorful, since real track is but green concrete walls are a bit too bright in some places:

Sheesh that looks brilliant mate! I hope you upload it to the mods section anyway, so we can enjoy it in private at least.

please look into this melbourne

 

[Blair Disley]

Is there a Hockenheim from 2000 pre screwing the track up version available for rf2, or one that can be converted? eg the one with the long straights, where you had to use low low downforce like monza.

 

[John-Eric Saxén]

Not any rF2 ready versions as far as I know. Even the modern Hockenheim we only have bad version but David will work to improve it.

Regarding Melbourne, it's a good start to edit grass, any track modding is always appreciated. But David and I made this decision (David could have changed the grass quickly as well and put 5 P.M which always looks better on any track), but we decided not to work on tracks from year 2001 and focus on newer tracks. Even if we stuck with the old graphics, this Melborune version has 2 corners which you can cut so easily that I would never run an FSR race on it without anti-cuts created. This is final decision.

Can't find a link to the Winter Series version of Imola, am I missing it somewhere?

You could have bought yourself time and actually let drivers to drive on a track they like more. A nice poll could have been even wiser. No one of course forces to use this version forever. Anyway, this is just an advice how to deal with things in the future since you are made your final decision. Cheers.
