rFactor

Meh ... what race time would that be GMT ?

 

[waggles]

@Mad94d-Yes, I will host-is there a better time for you? The weekend is fine for me no matter what. Let me know.

@Calcifer-AEST is GMT+10-go from there...

If we decide thursday is best, then I will announce mod/track on wednesday.

 

[Mad94d]

Thursday is good for me, but this week i'll be at Winton.

I downloaded F1 CTDP 2006 yesterday too, haven't tried it yet though.

 

[waggles]

Try it.

You don't really need to set the car up-it has a very good default setup.

Throttle on downshifts between 3-2 and 2-1 as the thing WILL snap right round.

Good track to start is actually the Melbourne track.

 

[Chagen46]

Hooooo boy, Ijust got this game and I think it's one of the the greatest $40I ever spent.....

It's really difficult, but insanely fun....does anyone know any good mods? I already have CDTP F1 '06 and ILMS, so dont suggest that.

The only thing I wish this game had was driver arms, but you can have everything.

 

[waggles]

CTDP 06 does have driver arms-but they're an absolute pile of crap and you shouldn't both with them.

As with all driver arms.

Wait for rF2 and you'll have proper arms.

If you want newer f1 cars-FSONE08 is good.

 

[Chagen46]

CTDP 06 does have driver arms-but they're an absolute pile of crap and you shouldn't both with them.

It does? I remember seeing them in the tv cockpit and swingman views, but when you go into cockpit, there's no arms, like all of the cars in Rfactor.

Also, I find it strange how my favorite thing to do in this game is do an oval race on the Jacksonville Superspeedway with the National Stock car.... Damn, it's fun.


And, when I'm bored, I turn the flags off, and drive backwards. Mass chaos ensues, espcially since Rfactor has a really good damage model.

Hi, I've just started playing rFactor again and I was wondering if anyone knew of a really ood and easy to follow guide on how to get the PS3 controller to work on the pc.
My PS2 controller that I use for the PC is getting a bit tired
Thanks
Allyn

 

[waggles]

Google the driver for it-you'll have to use usb, though.

 

[waggles]

Can anyone who has FSONE 2008 please upload their rfm files for the mod? Mine have corrupted in a directory change, unfortunately, and downloading a 1.3gb file for a 245kb file seems unnessecary.

Waggles, I'll try and upload them as soon as I can, currently away from home though, so i'll try and do it monday night if you don't already have them by then. 👍

 

[waggles]

Don't have them-and take your time, I'm not in a rush.

How is Winton?

Awesome, pitty there isnt a better representation in rfactor though!

 

[Vince_Fiero]

I´m planning to start rFactor soon, need new PC to arrive.

Is it OK to register under your GTplanet tag, or would you avoid Gran Turismo fan boy marks in other games (similar idea for GTR).

Do any of you use your GTP tag in other games?

 

[mazdaman]

How can I download rFactor?

 

[Bram Turismo]

Hey guys, I have a question. I'm interested in rFactor for the F1 mods, but I'm unsure how well this game would run on my computer. Here are my specs:

AMD AthlonX2 TK-53, 1.7Ghz
1024 MB RAM
128 MB RAM Radeon Xpress series

FIA GTR runs very smooth on this computer, although not on highest settings. It's an old game to compare it to, but at least you get an idea what I'm used to play on it.

Yay or nay?

 

[Aldo]

It should run fine I think.
rFactor is known for its lower requirements

You could always download the trial version and see.

[Bram Turismo]

Holy crap, the trial version is 1Gb large?

 

[Northstar]

It's actually the whole game, it just locks certain parts until you unlock the full version.

 

[Bram Turismo]

I see, thanks for the link 👍

 

[Gabkicks]

default cars suck, btw lexus IS-F and f1 cars arent bad. and 4wd car is easy to drive.

rFactor 2 is looking nice!

 

[waggles]

Nice, yes.

By the time it comes out, I should have my new, non-school-enforced laptop, so I should be able to run it.

Looks like they're putting some decent cars in, too.

 

[Masi_23]

Newbie.

So i finally installed rFactor. What do i do next? Can anyone provide any advice/suggestions/links?

Thanks.

 

[Aldo]

Play it...?
Or you can head on over to rFactorcentral.com for some mods etc.

Touche, captain obvious lol

I guess its my bad for not being specific...
What are the best mods? Currently DLing F1 WCP 2.0 and a few tracks...

Also, i was testing out the G25 and i was having trouble mapping it, especially the gears (only first and second registers)

Thanks, but I couldn't get it to work
Sorry for the very late reply from me as well.

Hehehe
If its the same as when I last visited the site, there will be some form of mod of the year list and stuff. Just for some ideas.
i'm afraid I can't help you with the shifting problem, I don't have a G25... yet.
