RD Le Mans Series Season 1 (rFactor)

[Bram Hengeveld]

I'lll call mrs Van Rijn to ask if you can play with us 6 times in one year on a saturday

 

[Eric. K]

man... I will have to send Mrs. Kaczmarek to Hawai every 2 months

 

[James Johnson]

man... I will have to send Mrs. Kaczmarek to Hawai every 2 months

LOL well i send mine to somewhere every month on saturday so i can race for 3 hours. ^_^

Bram that's just dirty man :act-up:

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

:lol:

I'lll call mrs Van Rijn to ask if you can play with us 6 times in one year on a saturday

better to do it with a personal visit flowers in hand :rose:

ps. not read it all yet but this mod looks fantastic :good:

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

The mod looks awesome indeed, but the way they are gonna release it is causing us some trouble.

The Enduracers group said they will release the cars spread over a period of time with so called service packs.

This means we will not have all the cars before the league starts so we had to decide not to run an overall championship but a winner per class per round.

That way a team owner can register with another car for the following round. Thats the only downside of this mod so far.

But we just have to sit and wait until its here

Come on release it :thumb:

 

[Tim Ewart]

This is truly cool

I will be defineatly signing up for this :honk:

 

[Ramon van Rijn]

On a more serious note; I can't (almost) never drive on Thu/Fri/Sat); where are the fine previously ran leagues on WedNight? (M3/Vertigo/etc)
What about a Junior LMS league? On Mon/Tue/Wed (pick one) with much shorter races, 60/90/120mins.
Or only the GT cars in a Junior LMS league.

Same tracks/same format etc.

Just a thought. I like to drive those LMS.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

Hm, time acceleration? Never used it... Will the races not be for 12 hours if it says so?

 

[James Johnson]

12 Hours but time in game will be X1 so day or night will come at X1 rate.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

What?! Lol, so... the race will be 12 hours but it will run under a 24 hour period? If I got that right will the tyre wear and everything be normal aswell?

 

[James Johnson]

It Says 12 Hours at X2 Rate for Race 6. 12x2 = 24 so over the 12 hour race. The game would of done full 24 hr's.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

Ok, now I get it Thanks!

 

[Damian Henderson]

It Says 12 Hours at X2 Rate for Race 6. 12x2 = 24 so over the 12 hour race. The game would of done full 24 hr's.

Yup, fully correct. So 12 hour race will simulate a full 24 hours in game arrot:

 

[David Garcia]

Great news it is finally starting!

 

[Daniel Pettit]

Looking forward to this one

 

[João Andias]

For obvious reasons, I’m interested in this…

But I’ve a real problem… I’m a total noob with rFactor and every time (every = 3 times ) I tried it, couldn’t come to grips with the FFB setting for the G25… and yes, I’ve used the file Bram posted (perhaps I didn’t used it correctly ).

So I “need” someone who uses a similar FFB setting to mine in Evo to pin-point what I need to do(yes,I’m being slow:embarrassed:). Thanks in advance for all the trouble…
​

In Evo I simdrive with FFB at maximum strength and full effects (if it isn’t max, it is near)… so my problem is that I arrive in rFactor (even with the Bram file admitting I installed it correctly), and I can’t come to grips with the G25. I’ve "no" feeling from the road and the turning strengths is "puny" even in maximum settings, it just feels I’m driving one of those electric fair-cars…

One final thing, I could adapt to this (like everything else), but the problem is that I will be using Evo 90% of the time and right now, to me, it is the opposite of rFactor so in that situation I doubt I could go without being a liability in this rFactor championship:sad:.

 

[RichardHessels]

First FFB is very personal.

I use a 50% mixture of Leo's FFB and Realfeel.
Keeping the FFB settings to max in rFactor.

There are probably loads of people taking me down for this.
But i have more convincing FFB than in EVO.
In my opinion... for what thats worth.

-------------------------------------
G25 controlpanel setting:

Rotation: 540
Steering force: 100%
Spring effect: 50%
Damper effect: 50%
Centerspring: 30% (box checked)

-------------------------------------

Leo's FFB setting:

17.5 Front Wheel lock angle, degrees (max deflection to one side from straight on)
0.72 Front wheel distance to centerline (half the front wheel track) in metres, from .pm file
1.075 Front axle distance to body reference point (about half the wheel base) in metres, from .pm file
2.5 Relative strength of FFB effects
6.0 Aligning moment curve shape / feeling of tyre losing grip. Lower numbers are duller, range 1.0 .. 10
0.99 Negative aligning moment parameter for high slip angles, range 0.0 ... 1.0
5.51 Slip angle where aligning moment reverses direction - typically between 8 and 15 degrees
2.0 Caster (dimetionless)
0.0 Camber ratio (not degrees!)
1.0 Road bumps feeling on the wheel
11500.0 maximum FFB force for stationary and low speed effects
10.0 stiffness of stationary wheels
1.5 wheel rubber hardness (1..5)
8.0 how quickly static forces drop off when rolling

-----------------------------------

RealFeel setting:

MaxForceAtSteeringRack=-2300.000000
SteeringDamper=11500.000000
FFBMixerRealFeelPercent=50.000000
SmoothingLevel=1

Sounds an interseting championship, I will seen if we can make a Project D team.
