1st for kira

Primera race when
dropbox.com/s/32duntnlgez3el4/nissan_primera_btcc_v0.7b.rar
- reworked tire heating
- added active differential
- updating refresh on LCD display for time to be faster, keeping rest the same
- tweaks to physics ( mostly aero balance, more towards rear now, making the car more stable)
- fixed camber, camber now responds more correctly
- minor tweaks on car mesh ( slightly smoother edge of rear doors, fixing gap between interior and exterior)
- adding one more backfire element

OK, so it seems like we won't be able to do another series of GT6 before Sport comes out, so after Burgers Vs Bongs ends and a two week haitus we'll do the Grand Valley 300k

The Build Your Own GT3 idea is going to be the main focus but I'll have to think up a couple of rules first.

>- reworked tire heating

is this from the mod maker or you? if you, why

racedepartment.com/downloads/1999-nissan-primera-btcc.3828/updates

And there's the bop as well. Thankfully it's so far off it's not an immediate concern, but it will need addressing.

Isn't it more in keeping with /ovg/'s ethos to use horribly outdated software?

Are we doing a gt sport series?

That's implying they want to keep the servers up.

Possibly. Depends on what the game is like.

98% sure we can already rwb the 993 gt2

at least we get one of the cute novas instead of the ugly one we have now

that's fine. didn't know rd went back to being gay and i was cautious because there was always some faggot user remaking the ac cars with retarded ""upgrades""

why do people dislike RD?

I'll do some testing in the coming weeks and try to come up with something more concrete, but this is still just an idea floating in my dumbass brain.

hecc i wanted to post a pic

racedepartment.com/threads/hi.137755/

epic trolling lol

...

ok last pic i swear. I'm just really excited for this.

So as I said, refunded WRC6.

>shit callouts
>shit graphics
>shit sound
>okay concept on career mode
>meh handling

So now I have 18 bucks to put towards something else. I do have FH3 but 400 hours in it so I'm taking a break.

Any good pics of Kira?

>he doesn't have Blur

no

I had it on my wishlist but it was pulled before I could buy it

I have no 'gear', I'm on an old thinkpad, what, if anything, can I play with some degree of enjoyment?

That's acceptable. The game you really want is Juiced 2

They didn't require you to login to download mods. They turned it off before for a while, but now they're back to requiring a login. Forcing people to make accounts to download shit is dumb and outdated way of generating accounts for your site unless there's an actual reason required for needing an account.

Oh, they finally pulled that one too? shame.

Are there no good racing games left on steam?

store.steampowered.com/app/552100/

I'll take that as a no.

>race driver: grid got pulled
>blur got pulled
>driver: san francisco got pulled and also seemingly obliterated from existence
>juiced 2 got pulled
>no one plays flatout uc
>no one plays gtr2
>no one plays race 07
>no one plays split/second
>no one bought grid autosport
>no one plays gas guzzlers

Dead genre, with an equally dead thread to accompany it.

If you don't look too closely, it almost looks real. Baffling because GT6 is actually a pretty shitty looking for a PS3 game.

You should buy rFactor 2 GT3 power pack goy very good value for supreme high realism GT3 racing in best simTM

>the ovg talent pool is so dry, funny greek won something

Let that sink in.

...

>tfw no quality MR2 mods for AC

rFactor 2 sale ends in less than an hour. Hurry up faggot.

Why are so many games based off of rFactor 1 yet /ovg/ hates it?

meme
/mēm/

noun

-an element of a culture or system of behavior that may be considered to be passed from one individual to another by nongenetic means, especially imitation.

-a humorous image, video, piece of text, etc., that is copied (often with slight variations) and spread rapidly by Internet users.

rfactor 1 itself isnt the problem, the problem are the people that make content for it

But the same people make content for AC

OG NFS car pack hype

How much fuel for F3 race?

Figure it out dumbfuck

Do I need any dlc for the GTP series in AC?

The GT5 servers stayed up for about 6 months after GT6's release and about 5 months notice was given. I don't think there's any reason to rush towards scheduling the GT6 swan song just yet.

It's more of a "hey let's do something big before sport comes out" rather than "lets do something before the online gets shut down" kind of thing. At least that's how i'm justifying it to myself. If people want to do something in gt6 after sport is out I'd be cool with that too.

Fair enough

That feel when not crossed out because obliterated from existence

> tfw constantly getting beaten by everyone I play with from Veeky Forums in FH3

I don't understand...

are you perhaps trying to make your car grip instead of going for as much power as physically possible

dont use aero
listen to eurobeat through groove
have fun

How much power do you need? I use a Porsche GT2 with 700 hp and some SL65 could still walk it like it was nothing.

imo the track they raced at was short and didnt require a lot of skill to master it.

you either did it right or you don't so anyobody could win.

>Porsche GT2
GT2 has a speed restriction and will only do 360ish km/h
SL65 can ht 400km/h in S1 and handle ok

Exactly

Yes senpai

You mean drag limited? The GT2 I had a grip set up on but it'll still do 200 quickly but everything still walks it.

I'm only half decent on sprints and goliath :(

Both SimracingPaddock and Gamer Muscle has been out saying that pCars 2 in terms of physics is a step up from Forza and GT, but nothing compared to real sims. While James says that it's better than rFactor 2

Difference is that Ian Bell is sponsoring James

REALLY MAKES YOU THINK HUH

>believing e-celebs
shiggy

>believing corporate shill nr 1 James

>he's not running a twin turbo V10 on 185 road tyres so his car handles like unreal tournament on low grav

james is an e-celeb

>need to buy a new wheel if i want to play gt sport properly
thanks logishit, it's not like this hobby isn't expensive enough as it is

just play gran turismo if you want content

blame sony for that

You forgot to explain why they said it's nothing compared to real sims.

Studio 420 released Zandvoort!

Still a beta though

>.20 version

surely that is ready for a big competition!

version numbers are pretty arbitrary desu, i wouldnt read too much into that other than its not completely done

>booohoo I want random weaboo shitboxes
>why games have to focus on actual race cars booohoo

/OVGRR3/ WHEN?

sure but random shitbox mods are the bomb diggity

I already drive a shitbox IRL, I don't want to pretend to drive a shitbox.

I do

Should i bother entering this round
>tfw slower than valrys in round 1

At this point, I don't care if it's simcade desu, I just want a half-decent track racer with elements of sim while still being accessible without a wheel.

seemingly although it shouldnt be
the 997 gt2 (565kw) will max out at 360ish while the 997 gt3 rs (632kw) maxes out at 390 while accelerating faster and handling almost the same. you might be thinking its because of the power difference but all the factory turbo porsches are cucked on speed
eg (S1)
N/A
996 gt3 - 375km/h (497kw)
cayman gt4 (4.0f6) - 390 km/h (539kw)
cayman gts (4.0f6) - 381km/h (554kw)

Turbo
993 gt2 - 358 km/h (578kw)
930 (3.6f6) - 350 km/h (577kw)
991 Turbo S - 364km/h (486kw) >RWD swap and is faster in a straight line than the original layout

even with less power the factory n/a models with a turbo slapped on are faster
this post was longer and more autistic than i planned

hey pastor (or whoevers hosting the spa 2.4hr) i cant get the server browser to load unless i have the all cars series selected but when i join the server i get an .rfm mismatch because of that what do. also the car models dont load when i have the all cars series selected

t. larguu

ok i got the server browser loading (along with the car models loading) when i added

Matchmaker TCP Port = 39001
Matchmaker UDP Port = 39002
Loading Bar Color = 16750848
RaceCast Location = racecast.rfactor.net

to the .rfm but now its going to kick me from the race since the .rfm is different from the server

>no one bought grid autosport

I did, you're not missing anything

It seems to work on a couple of installs so I really don't know what's fucked with yours.
Here's the rfm taken straight from the server
mega.nz/#!FYs3RRpD!LJ4BI0Z6QMB9vfqiVJX8e1XxSu5aa5zkmthh6FUY-a4

If it still doesn't work properly I'll disable mismatch kicking.

yeah still getting the .rfm mismatch error even when using that one. fucking funny 12 year old game

what a great thing
so TES updated the rfm with your suggestions and I've put it on the server
mega.nz/#!AQt2UKiD!858r17yb1iQ2_NFtnx_-dkjri19-w-hnf7BgGd_GRcI
fingers crossed

Is there a reason why the force feed back for this FIA GT mod for the 2.4 spa feels non existent? Regardless of what FFB I install on the car it's all the same

Do you have the update installed?

V8 Supercars race in 30 minutes on Norising

I'm thinking of buying a new wheel. My Logitech DFP died after 4-5 years. I don't want to spend 1000s of bucks for a so-called "simulation", just decent FFB and durability. For which I should go for?

Which tyres for BvB?

g27

or just another dfp

G29s also have a good feel, but the H-shifters are hit-and-miss. Logitech refunds/replaces them without bullshit though.

A reminder that Burgers Vs Bongs starts in a little less than 1.5 bongs. The club lobby will be up in a bit.
