Cart Factor, GP79 & CSGT: Where is the fanbase?

Mark A Warmington · Oct 27, 2009

I seem to be one of those unique individuals that really likes the rFactor mods that seem to have very little interest in RD (not that RD has the lack of interest, rather that RD Club members seem to like other mods more :freaked-out

.

I recall that RD tried to get interest going in Cart Factor a few months ago but got very little response to the race sign-ups (I myself struggled to sign up because RD was a very busy place at the time, with different events every night of the week).

I can't recall the last time a GP79 event was successfull (again due to sign ups) and I am now wondering whether or not the Classic Sportscar & Grand Touring mod would receive the same response.

So - I would just like to throw the question out there. How much interest is there in our hub-bub of a community for these mods? What would the chances be of getting 10-15 people together, someday, to race these classics?

I dont have an updated sound pack Rhys, some of the cars have the same engine, a lot have the Cosworth DFV, Mclaren and Lotus have Honda, Williams Judd, Ferrari have well Ferrari, and there are 1 or 2 others, but the different engines dont sound the same.

I had some different sounds. Didn't drove all the cars yet.

Hmm did some research and i found that alot of people have problems with the sound. And like the 0.9 version more. Version 1.0 incudes new sounds by Montesky.

I'm just wondering which version it is that includes the sounds in Ivo's video. When I'm playing the game, I don't have as much of the variety of sounds that the video has (eg the McLarens don't have that high-pitched whine).

I will ask 6e66o he made the video.

He uses this soundpack.

Edit: wrong topic.

I looked in the sound folder for the mod install and there are different engine sounds in there, but I am downloading the soundpack to see if any are different, I think its the Benneton Ford or the Williams Judd that sometimes makes a sound similar to a sort of low pitched growl or moan, I love it absolutly brilliant.
