Formula Truck 2013

I tried that hex.

The only thing I've found to stop it and have circuit detail / max shadows was to change the sky update frames to 3000.

My little dream is to have European Truck champ. with my beloved Buggyra truck.
But I know.. that god damned licensing..

Hi everybody,
Is it possible to put rfactor's tracks into Formula Truck Simulator 2013?
If yes, how? When i add a rfactor track into the locations folder, the game doesn't recognize it.
Thanks for your help!

It's not a matter of simply copy/paste rFactor track. It has to be converted properly.

 

[ludo608]

Okay and is there a tutorial about that?

Well, before maybe get into trouble because of copyrights, have a look into our MOD forum.

Ok thanks for your answers guys i'll have a look at that

Has anyone compared the difference between

Shadow Updates="127" // Static shadow updates per frame (Shadow Updates * Sky Update Frames should exceed number of static shadows on track)
Sky Update Frames="8" // Frames between sky and light updates Change it to:

and

Shadow Updates="8" // Static shadow updates per frame (Shadow Updates * Sky Update Frames should exceed number of static shadows on track)
Sky Update Frames="150" // Frames between sky and light updates

in terms of frames-per-second, smoothness (stutters), and visual quality as well??...

 

[Spinelli]

If you disable shadows (fully off, not minimum), or leave shadows on (full, high, med, low) but disable time scaling (0x, or off, can't remember what it's called) this should get rid of the constant time-interval (ever second or two, whenever the shadows update) stutters.

Apologies hex I was changing the time scale weather.........the QUICK RaceTimeScale does indeed stop the stutter and thanks Spinelli as your post prompted me again to have a look at what hex had posted,

I'm now using Nvidia Inspector with the recommended settings by Blkout the only thing now is I'm using a single card.

 

[Spinelli]

You're welcome

@Reiza Studios are there any new updates coming for this beautiful sim? Also, a while ago you mentioned diesel smoke coming for these trucks' exhausts. News? thanks!

 

[Spinelli]

Anyone else have any good controller settings or RealFeel settings for the CSW V2? I'm not getting as much detail as I know the game is capable

 

[Ian Anderson]

Did you ever find away to sort it out?

Did you ever find away to sort it out?

Nope.
I asked a similar question about AC. Didn't find a way to sort that out either

Do you know a way of changing this LOD behaviour?

Yes you can increase the LOD multiplyer for any camera you want. I assume you are talking about your view from the drivers cockpit.

Look for this file "FTruck2013_Cams.cam" in "Formula Truck 2013\Gamedata\Vehicles\FTruck2013"

LocalCam=COCKPIT
{
  Fov=(50.000000, 50.000000)
  Clear=TRUE
  Color=(164, 218, 249)
  ClipPlanes=(0.075000, 500.000000)
  LODMultiplier=(1.000000)
  Size=(1.000000, 1.000000)
  Center=(0.500000, 0.500000)
  MipmapLODBias=(0.000000)
  Flags1=(0)
  Flags2=(0)
  RadiusLimits=(0.000000, 0.000000)
  OrientationRate=(999.000000, 999.000000, 999.000000)
  PositionOffset=(0.000000, -0.0, 0.0000)
  OrientationOffset=(0.00000, 0.000000, 0.000000)
  Radius=(0.000000)
}

Change LODMultiplier=(1.000000) to LODMultiplier=(2.000000)

Keep in mine you will take a performance hit but if you have the hardware it should be no problem.
