Enduracers Flat 6 Version 4.0 Released

[Paul Jeffrey]

Updated to DX11 standards and benefiting from new physics, talented rF2 modding team Enduracers have released a new version of the awesome Flat 6 mod for rFactor 2...

Following something of a long development period behind the scenes, it is now finally time to download the major new update to the already very enjoyable Flat 6 mod for rFactor 2. The new update brings the cars to DX11 standards, including compatibility with the new rF2 'Rain Build' released just before Christmas, as well as adding a considerable reworking of the physics behind the scenes, including the use of CPM tyres for the very first time.

Check out the full change log below...

dunno if it's me being crap but i was having real bad problems braking with this mod...back end kept snapping out. never had that in previous version

because its a porsche, if you're not careful with the weight transfer you'll have that issue, happens in iracing too

It happens IRL too, can get quite 'exciting' at times.

 

[hegelhegelian]

also they removed autoblip so you need to manage it yourself now, i think he might be locking because of it?

 

[dreamer al]

I believe I have the five race sims of choice; I recently purchased rFactor 2 during the Steam sale over Xmas. It is fast becoming my sim of choice. Well done and thank you.

Hi dreamer al, welcome to rF2 and Race Dept.

Equivalent was a bad word to use....sorry, what I meant by equivelant was other sims have the new gt3 cup 911 model license

I understand your point, however in this case it is available for free to all users.

 

[dreamer al]

Hi dreamer al, welcome to rF2 and Race Dept.

Ty Ace, i am loving it

 

[RichardHessels]

Appreciate the hardwork put into this mod and i am sure the rf2 fans will enjoy it....but for me its hard to get excited for when every other sim has an official porsche license with an equivalent model.

Even if they drive not nearly half as good as this great mod? These guys put more time/effort, real life data and driver feedback in this one car than most other companies are willing or are able to invest in it. Ok it's missing the original logo at the front, if that's your thing.

Well said. No matter if it has Porsche logo or is called Flat6, when it looks and behaves like the real one. It doesn't matter if it has a licence. I would better have unlicensed car, with a super physics, than a one that drives and feels like in Forza.

Previous version was top notch, to new one probably is even far better on DX11.

This awesome mod's physics is top notch plus it looks fantastic in DX11.

I don't have any problems with a T500RS on rF2, what's the problem for you?

When startup (or tried to leave the pits), the throttle sticks for no reason

 

[Javi288]

Equivalent was a bad word to use....sorry, what I meant by equivelant was other sims have the new gt3 cup 911 model license

That is, the 991 GT3 Cup appears in some sims (RaceRoom, iRacing and Assetto Corsa) as official license.

This mod (Flat6 Series) is exclusive to rFactor2, no other sim has the 997 GT3 Cup (i think there was a similar mod for Automobilista, and also for rFactor1). This together with that is very well recreated makes it a highly valued mod.

Regards.

I love that this is a front page piece of news. Such a great mod for an ever improving sim.

 

[Tberg]

Is it raining glue? Extremely persistent raindrops

 

[Msportdan]

i hated the original ENduracer mods, felt like raceroom original cars. (all floaty) now this flat 6 feels like a true Rf2 car. I adjusted the brake pressure to about 65% helped, but you need to blip the throttle to avoid lockup on down shifts.. that what i like about this...

it feels like a sim car..

 

[Andrew Harper]

I haven't driven this mod since version 1.0 when I took part in a league with it.

The car was positively evil at the time and I was having real issues driving it. We lost 80% of the field by the third round I think purely because of this.

I understand though in the newer versions the car has been improved.

I'm sure I'll download it again to see what it's like, Enduracers work is on the whole very good.

Exciting! Thanks modders.

Because if this game could be picked up for £12 over Christmas (and any steam sale) and the mod is free....why would any sim racer not have it if only to check it out compared to other games representations?
I find it more odd that people would own one sim...

When startup (or tried to leave the pits), the throttle sticks for no reason

Just a wild guess, not sure what you mean with "sticks" . But pitlimiter?

Turn off the pitlimiter. By default it's the "L" key: or assign a steering wheel button.
or use auto pit: F10.
