Regardless of this happening, I don't think you'll ever see another Kunos game with mod support. They know the mod community is the only thing keeping AC alive, but I'm sure they would much rather have it die and force everyone on to ACC. I'm willing to bet we won't see any announcement of a true sequel to AC until the modding scene is completely dead, and I'd expect any future game they make to go the ACC route and lock it down.

You are right about this - the money that Kunos is losing is going directly into the pockets of modders who are still developing content for AC, as opposed to moving onto AC. I think that the (illegal) conversion of the M4 (at least temporarily) GT3 stands as an example of that.

Forza, GT Sport, CSR2, etc models have been cracked, ripped, and converted since the beginning of time. So now iRacing models get ripped and it's somehow a bigger deal?

Noticed something on both the Simdream and RTM site it seems that the more info page actually has the same text this pretty much solidifies my theory about RTM and Simdream being run by the same guy and also because both are based in Russia. So in a nutshell RTM could be in trouble too...

There's a beautiful poem in my country about people that call Metrogas (our natural gas supplier) when they have a gas issue. Metrogas cuts the supply on the whole building because of that one guy, and they are left like that for days until a crew finally comes in. A particular technician would, of course, cut the problematic person's supply only and fix it at the moment.
This whole Jimmy thing reminded me of it. Sorry for the off-topic!

I'm sorry but then, there are a few idiots around. Because some, were and are buying some of those mods.

I don't see how iRacing is bigger than Turn10 or Polyphony Digital. and nothing has happened. Ripping models for mods is nothing new and it's the exact reason why pretty much every game has some sort of encryption in the first place. Every developer is aware of this happening and there is nothing they can do about it once it's compromised. It's just the same deal with those encrypted modders crying when their mod gets decrypted, just now right at the source.

Fernando has managed to take it from that very site you linked since he got an account there and gladly shared it to me over his Discord server, sure its quality is not on par with the rest of the liveries the mod comes with (since it's the LQ preview one and not the HQ one only visible in-game), but it should still get the job done.

Thought I would share a couple of fictional skins I have been working on lately. They are for the "crsh_porsche_911_gt3_r_2019" mod.

Thanks Atrupelador, thought to be honest, I gave up on Camtool because it sucked up so many FPS and caused various other issues, but I might try it again one day.

I'm pretty sure they have the C8.R which could also be from iRacing.
Yeah something tells most of those mods are imported from other games. Like the C8.R, the F1 Packs etc. It's just wrong and most of the mods aren't free as well. I'm surprised that someone other than Jimmy didn't notice. Thankfully we have noticed it and hopefully stop this site making money from other people's work.
I know I'm writing a lot of rants but let's be honest i think we're all angry with this. These paints are on Tradingpaints.What the hell were they thinking, there is so much copyright infringement all over this car. They didn't even change the sponsors on the skins.
Edit: Not gonna lie, it drives pretty nicely - especially as far as a Sim Dream mod goes.
For those who don't know is an app to run with iRacing. So you can have a livery for iRacing which has the M4.

C8.R definitely isn't from iRacing, it came out before iRacing's version if I recall right... looks a lot worse too.

Looks like they stole mine too. Made one with red grille and gave the car carbon mirror caps because iR made them blue...
But good to know that iR is already on that case...

The C8.R should be from Real Racing 3 not from Iracing.

re; the "simdream" conundrum
While SD is no doubt in violation of misappropriating others works (game studios or otherwise) and collecting money, doing anything about it....
is mostly fruitless.
The main issue with this group, if they operate or reside in Russia, is that of jurisdiction and, secondarily, jurisdictional prosecution incentive. The most anyone or authority can do is shutter any hosting they are using (and push them to even more bulletproof and takedown-less hosters).
Russian authorities have no incentive to go after them, due to the very very low monetary gain involved (a few $,eu,rub).
Thus they continue to operate freely.
As a community we can do several things. (for those mods that are not "studio" origin, but conversions of scratch models)
1. share their remakes of original scratch models for free, include the original modders credits and permissions (LeMans Heroes mod for example)
2. remake and release the mods with creators permissions (as I have done specifically with Gilles75 rip-offs)
To note, many of SD/RTM mods are from authors that allow conversions without written permission as long as original credits are included (VLM and VLMjr team come to mind such as Vince K.). I have original sources for most of SD offerings, and had plans to re-convert a few myself.
It is up to YOU and US to remove the incentive for these kinds of groups.
btw... SD cannot "sue" you nor anyone for distributing links or hosting any of their converted "scratch" content for free. They hold no IP rights to do so.

Had some catching up to do over the last 24hrs. The new BMW is the most talked/debate topic for now. That made me curious and did some searching.
Is this street version the same source, I think I haven't seen it here before? My Turkish is not so good (not at all...) but it looks good. No idea how it drives and if this will be available for the public (if allowed?). Anyone ideas or just forget it?
His driving skills needs some improvement
And please get rid off the exhaust flames for this street car.

Thanks for that; it's not quite as 'complete' as his Abarth/Scorpion (which has two versions and more skins) but it's still great quality and fits really well with his own DeTomaso and the Kunos '74 RSR. I often find that my favourite mod cars to drive have physics done by Abbo90 and this is no exception. Couple of tweaks to the sound would be nice, but 'ama fmod', the god of AC sounds, is working on one here anyway:
For the price of a beer or (cheap) sandwich, I know which one will give me more enjoyment.
