Stock Car Extreme Mods (merged)

[ML2166]

Hey guys

Okay here are the skins created by me over the last few weeks.

38 in total, 19 Chevrolet and 19 Peugeot.

All completely fictional of course, but I hope you enjoy them.

I have given all the cars different numbers and names from the originals in game, so you should be able to run them alongside the original skins.

Pretty new to the modding aspect on the rfactor platform, and this is my first attempt.

Haven't found a way to have the game read a new RFM file hence the reason for the new numbers and names.

Hope you enjoy them........happy racing fellas!

Chevrolet Part 2

Peugeot's

Hello Alfredo,

I've tested this track online on this weekend. The track is amazing and it's one of the best I ever tried on sim racing.

However, if you don't mind I'd like to share a feedback with you in order to improve the track even more:

1) circuit night lights are not working: When you race at night, it's complete dark. Not even the boxes have some light. Can this be improved?

2) strange bumps before the second corner (it happens all the time). And a really weird bump on the 'Rahal straight' just before the 7 corner. (it happens sometimes which makes the car jumps as if there was a ramp)

I tried with the BAC MONO from the British car mod. I'll try with other vehicles and if anything change I'll come back with more info.

I like the track (thank you Patrick!) but I find the track surface very grainy. Any tips on how to make it look as smooth as your screenshots? I have textures on high as it is. I get similar issues with Livet Glen (If I am remembering correctly).

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

Hum. Try with everything at max. Do you have a nvidia or an ATI?

So I increased textures to max which helped a bit, but then I tried changing texture filter. It was on Anisotropic x2 and I increased it to x16; now it looks perfect. Thanks

..... managed to get that tricky matte look, last preview car before release

Hi Troy, i would like to try that matt look on a personal livery, are you able to share what you did to achieve the matt look?? im guessing its a tweak to the alpha layer

Another option I just found today is on rFactorCentral - take a look at Champ result (when you click on the download link, it is the 2.5 Christmas edition that you need to choose on the next page, seems to work best).
It works form the log results in your userdata folder. So you can add races from any mod to create a calendar, you can customise the points, AND it show the constructors points.

Can you explain how to use this, tried several times and get no info, there is no guide etc, how actly are you doing and setting up??

Here's a quick run down that should get you started.

NOTE - sorry if it seems a bit long, but please don't let this put you off, once you have tried it and got used to it, it is a great utility, easy to use and has lots of extra stats & points options for your championship.

First, I had trouble with other versions not working on my pc, so this is in relation to Champ R-Esult Christmas version (v2.5.5 I think).

1) no need to install, just extract it to it's own folder and start by double clicking on Results.exe
2) select NEW Champ, choose a name and hit 'Execute'
3) click on Points Rules on the top bar. Here, enter the points for your championship and click 'SAVE'
4) Now it is ready to use. Close it, you will not need it till you have run a race.

5) In GSC, run whatever race you want, any choice of settings, single race. You will be adding each race to your season as you go along so there is no need to create a calendar beforehand - Champ R-Esult builds the season for you each time you add an event to it.

6) Any time after the race, start Champ R-Esult again. This time, select 'Open Champ', and choose your previously created season name. Select it by double clicking on the .dcr file of your choice. This brings up the season screen (currently blank if you have not yet added a race).
7) click on Add Event.
8) (optional) click on 'Qualify file' - in the box that opens, navigate to your GSC\UserData\LOG\Results and select the Qualifying file that relates to your qualifying session (name ends in Q1). Hit 'Open' DO NOT hit Execute yet!
9) now click on 'Race file' & choose the race file that relates to your race (name ends in R1) Hit 'Open'
10) Hit 'Execute' - the event has now appeared in your main season list - don't quit now, it is nearly done
11)double click on the event and you are taken to details of the race - here you can look at your qual session, race results, lap by lap stats and more.
12) Most important - At bottom of screen choose the Drivers Points tab and hit 'Execute' then at top of screen select 'Save Points for Champ!'
And that's it. Now exit that window, and back in the main season list, you can click on Drivers or teams championship on the left to view the standings.

Yes all you gotta do is make the alpha layer darker but that will make everything matte. If you want to make it wrap around logos it gets quite complicated and i cant really explain it.

You are not kidding. I may need a new HD. Lots of my favorite vintage mods, but I spot checked a couple and they seem to drive so much better on GSC than they ever did on rFactor.

Keith Windsor submitted a new resource:

BarcelonaDRS AIW & TDF Fix - Improves AI behaviour for offline racing of Formula Extremes

Alternative AIW & TDF files for Game Stock Car version of : BarcelonaDRS / Barcelona 07-10


Important: I have NOT converted/uploaded the original rFactor track for public use as I have no permission to do so.
These files are for use as updates to the original track, for anyone who has downloaded & converted the track for themselves or obtained a permitted conversion.


What these files do:

The AIW file controls the paths, fuel use, and some behaviour of the AI.
The TDF file controls the grip...

Read more about this resource...

Thanks Keith for your efforts to improve the offline experience, on this and other tracks.

They do, and they look a hell of a lot better too

 

[morsify]

thx a lot! is this for patrick's barcelona drs?

It works with Barcelona 0710, and it will also work with Patricks conversion yes

 

[Jeremy Chambers]

hmm I just can't seem to get this one or the Spa track to work. Do these tracks require an F-1 Mod by any chance? I was hoping to use the Blancpain cars on them....

 

[Frapp Lee]

It is actually a great mod for rFactor. But I have not been able to convert it over to GSC using "the tool". If anyone can get it converted please post. Here is a link to another 1996/97 mod. I have both in rF but can only get this one to convert successfully.

Edit: For some reason I cannot post the link I wanted to. I have tried 3 times, but to no avail. The mod I am referring to is over at f1classic in the Open Wheel Cars section.

I prefer the HV one however

 

[Frapp Lee]

Fail

 

[Colin O Callaghan]

Cool. Got it working mate, just what I needed, prefare something like this to the in game championship, really good once you get it working, cheers for that
