RD Le Mans Series Season 3 (rFactor)

[Magnus Dahlgren]

Maybe something for Season 4 ?

Are they glow in the dark numbers? Now that would look cool.

 

[Wilfred vd Brink]

Series Length: Could've been 2 races or so longer.

Classes Run: Yes, P1, P2, GT2 seems like good classes to run these events with, classes can run their own races, whithout being in each other ways.

Time/Day of Events: Was fine with me.

Test Races: I would say mandatory, but due to time differences it may not be possible for some teams, so ....

Qualification: On race day.

Forum Structure: Looks fine to me.

Additional Comments: I liked that the series was strict with the rules and handing out penalties, made the races more clean I think.
Imo the best season so far interms of organisation. Thanks to everyone involved .

 

[Dmytro Botnarenko]

Series Length: 6-8 rounds would be better

Classes Run: ok for classes, only wish to more car variety in classes

Time/Day of Events: ok

Test Races: I would say mandatory, but I know, that's nearly impossible for some people in midweek, so - optional

Qualification: one day/few days/week before the race (will allow more focus on the race and reduce the time/rush of the final event)

Forum Structure: well structured

Additional Comments: S3 was one of the best organized leagues here at RD in which I took part. Only wish (main issue of our team this season) - consider about possibility of using some variants of soft, which helps to return to the race after disco or rF error.
Ah! And the tracks. Le Mans 1979 was very good choise. Some tracks need to be in calendar in any cases, like Le Mans and Sebring. Maybe need some rotation of one or two tracks (tracks "with history", and even old layots would be nice), but only without fictional tracks.

Great video Denis

No sorry they are not, I don't know how to make that effect!

 

[Denis Porokhniak]

Panoz has sort of glowing lit numberplates. But you have to put them in a specific place for that to work, moving the sticker on the texture won't change the location of the lit spots.

 

[Davy Lauwereys]

making numberplates light up, isn't that hard, BUT then it has to be coupled to the cars lights for example, wich doesn't look right at all... as far as i know it's not possible to make them "glow in the dark"

 

[George Talbot]

Yes it is.

 

[Simon Melhuish]

Its possible but its a pain in the arse to do if you have about 10 different car models

 

[Davy Lauwereys]

Is it? well, i did say as far as i know lol

We did some experimenting with it aswell, and yes while it's possible to a degree, we were not really happy with the endresults of it (getting it truly glow in the dark), so we did not persue it any further.

We offcourse, don't know everything, so for now i'll stand corrected

 

[Magnus Dahlgren]

I do know that the creators of the Aston-Martin DBR1-2 mod for rF has made working 'glow-in-the-dark'-plates, however to get it to work on the ES-mod would require some substantial work by the looks of it.

 

[Denis Porokhniak]

I certainly remember seeing tracks that have tire barriers and other things glow in the dark due to conversion errors.

Especially if you consider that even different teams with identical cars tend to place their numberplates differently.

You can get around this by not allowing the plate to be moved though

Odd? Me? Never Dave

I've just watched most of the broadcast (some big chunks are missing here and there on youtube), and I want to clarify one thing that I have heared about myself.

I heared Stefan Persson joining the booth and Joakim explain what happened where we touched and Stefan span, but that is not what actually happened. At the porsche-kurves I span the car around at least twice for each time I was in the car because it felt very twitchy after being thrown into the walls from the start of the race. So when I was driving my later stints I dabbed the brakes up there to stabilize the car, and I did so also when Stefan was up behind me there. But Stefan was obviously able to keep a mutch higher speed through that corner comfortably than I was, and closed in quite a lot faster than expected for both of us, leading to a hit and spin for him.

Really sorry for this, Stefan, I had no intention of making you take evasive action. It was down to the fact that I did not trust my car enough around there in high speed, and you caught up with me at the precise wrong time. The only times I did not brake in those curves was when I span

[George Talbot]

Awesome video love the clip from Road Atlanta with the UK-NL Ferrari stuck in the middle of the road on T5 exit, don't know how everyone avoided it...
