i wish i could make tracks for a real racing game instead of Rust v0.02

is this too cartoonishly aggressively banked side to side? are these turns too tight? i dont even wanna begin on off-track geometry or on-track detailing until this like 2 meters or w/e of road is absolutely perfect and sets a standard of what is acceptable for the rest of it

please note that the part in obvious gray/orange dev textures will probably have a grippy natural sufrace later, like gravel or tamped dirt. the pressed concrete and poured concrete will remain level accross their widths wherever that material is used and only be not level to change elevation, unlike the dev textured bit thats all waverly

Third for Slick Rhymes
I walk in the room, the bell chimes
I hate the singer called Grimes
I don't wanna commit no more crimes

Straight outta Compton, crazy motherfucker named SrdjanG
From the gang called Niggaz Who Like Spamming 't'
When I'm called off, I got a sawed off
Squeeze the throttle, and cars are punted off
You too, boy, if ya fuck with me
AUTISM are gonna hafta come and get me
Off yo ass, that's how I'm goin out
For the Shadow Government that's showin out
Niggaz go on Mumble, they wanna rumble
Mix em and cook em in a pot like Cosmo
V8 5.7 is the tool
Don't make me act the motherfuckin fool
Me you can go wheel to wheel, no maybe
I'm knockin niggaz off tha track, daily
yo weekly, monthly and yearly
until them dumb motherfuckers see clearly
that I'm down with the capital O-V-G
Boy you can't divebomb me
So when I'm in your neighborhood, you better duck
Coz Srdjan is crazy as fuck
As I leave, believe I'm draftin'
but when I come back, boy, I'm comin straight outta Compton

Nations/Manufacturers cup in sport starts in 2 and ends in 6 hours. Go and Rep your country and favourite manufacturer with all you got.

AE86 reminder. This sunday is the last race, on RBR national

Why are there 2 almost identical versions of the same car in the game?

You don't appear to be familiar with GT at all.

For the manufacturer's cup you sign a contract with a manufacturer for the season, and you get provided with one Group 4 and one Group 3 car. Mazda's Gr 4 and Gr 3 cars are both the atenzas. In some other makers it's different, i.e., volkswagen has the scirrocco Gr 4 and the Beetle or VGT Gr 3.

So you call it GT
Here I sit on my chair, I call it SHITTY
Identical looking cars made by the lazy Japs
I ain't wasting my time using them for hotlaps

So, I spent the past couple of months playing through some old games I din't bother to actually play through in my childhood

Bleifuss fun/Ignition
>never got the fastest car back then, now I beat the game within about an hour

NFS: High stakes (4)
>handling is floaty but fun once you get past the beginner tier cars

>NFS 3 tracks are a welcome addition, though some races are over 20minutes long
>Pirated game also came with improved menues and extra cars from aussie and weeb editions
>they bothered to record a complete set of british cop radio chatter for just one bland track

NFS Porsche
>Only played it at a friends house once, time to give it another shot
>Expected NFS4 with porsches, but holy shit the cars actually behave like cars
>every drivetrain has a unique handling which leads to a sudden spike in difficulty once you get to the early 911s
>career mode with tons of Porsches and ALL the variants
>Plus somewhat realistic upgrades including visual stuff
>aged graphics aside, this should make autitistic Porsche fans very happy
>Some of the engine sounds are horrendous, some (like the 993) are spot on though
>tracks are wonderfully overstyled with neat sound design and alternative routes. If you liked the style of NFS 3 you'll LOVE these

Blog posting aside, I just started playing Underground 2, but I can't find the visual upgrades shop, is it unlocked later?

You need to find the shops around the city. Follow the colored lights and they will lead you to them, don't recall which color is which though

Anyone here tried GTR2? It seems nice.

+ lots of mods
+ weather
+ seems like it has 100 car grids
+ custom championships
+ multiclass racing

- old af
- physics might not be as good as newer games

Red
The starting city one is located next to the casino looking location

Because it's easier to make up cars from one single model than model cars.

It is. I'd advise to enjoy the vanilla game before modding the shit out of it though
Starting in the back of a full grid at Spa in a laggy turbo Porsche is hectic enough, especially when it starts to rain

thanks for the spoonfeeding, I must have skipped too many cutscenes

You dont

It's very prone to crash on online I've been told so it's better to stick to Rfactor for online stuff

The cars in the picture be like

HAHAHAHA xdddddddddddd

what the fuck is your problem?

Tyre wear at 2x for tonight right?

" A rally experience "
"Experience speed at the wheel or in the passenger seat."
"This gift card entitles you to a rally experience.
Choose one of the available options below:
1. Take part in an open Rally test day (in Loppi)

Basically it's a gift card for rally hooning.

>>tracks are wonderfully overstyled with neat sound design and alternative routes. If you liked the style of NFS 3 you'll LOVE these
I find NFS Porsche tracks quite well toned, only problem being they're wide as fuck

if they were half as wide then the tracks would be much more interesting

>this is real finnish market demand
>rally fun gift card
yep, i'll start learning language right now

fuck. High Stakes, Porsche Unleashed and Underground 2 are my favs NFS. Honorable mention to Carbon as well.

Good times.

Thx. I didn't part with my 190€ though
You can buy these kinds of rally gift cards online in other places (e.g. red letter days in the UK). But I found it interesting you can buy them at supermarkets here, as if it was an iTunes gift card or something

There's multiple visual upgrades shops in underground, the Body shop, the paint job, and then there's the special shop which has neons, hydraulics and stereo shit.

...

What's next on AC then.

Fucking what. GT Manufacturer series started the fucking race with me facing backwards.
10th on the grid straight to 20th because I had to actively turn around.

That's a new one. Did you save the replay?

Yeah, I'll upload it. Looks like I got rammed off the course by another car when autodrive was on.

I don't even understand.

youtube.com/watch?v=2M4YrjRAtnk

Still rendering but you can sort of see what happened when looking at the radar

Jesus. I guess now I have a new fear every time I start a race

>falling for the cinematic start meme

Reminder the ARCA race is going to quali now, don't let daylight savings fuck you up

Nice timing retard. Next time make an important announce 1 minute before the session closes.

next time learn to work out clocks you cunt

No you idiot, it's your job to remind people. Not everyone autistically waits for saturday to come so your sorry ass can go "lol I guess I should say that we are moving behind with daylights"
Maybe if you havent chased out every fucking decent organiser we would be stuck with an 18 year old autist who likes to post stale memes. If you wanna do something, go all the way and don't half ass it like the fucking scouser.

another quality kazunori yamauchi product hits the shelves

lol umad

So this is the power of the shadow government

The city of Codemasters

it's more like burnout really

literally didn't move the timezone, its 7pm GMT just like always, not my fault you can't use a clock
also
>18
im 12 hecc off

pls mek guugl clandr so i kno wen rase is on

fkun ginger cunt

I nned help my clok is not automagic!?!

In Mudrunner, when using the winch drive mode is there a way to make the target vehicle go in reverse or is it just forwards?

>tfw put on ressing slipsers for nottinhg

Why does it seem like 90% of people who buy racing sims don't like sims at all? They're always ramming, divebombing, cutting the track, crashing, etc.

gee if only we had solved this problem years ago and put a countdown timer somewhere

forgot to turn my vpn off for the race

> what is UTC

Should be an option in the advanced tab when attached to reverse push/pull?

If your racing sim is available on consoles, it's not a racing sim

UTC=GMT you dumb fucking cunt

>not protecting yourself from the shadow government

Shitposting tournament right now reply here.

P1

This is not a case of the timezone you daft cunts. It's about being absolute memelords of organising shit. Why the fuck would people in the doc after setting up the game? Not everyone like goes there so they can put shitty notes and pictures at it. Think ahead and think like you are little in the brain, and dont fucking complain if people screw up. In the span of two years, nu-ovg and nu-mumble managed to fuck up so many things and shitpost it away its legit sad to watch. But maybe one day you can pull your ass off your fucking ass and do something decent.
Now be a good muppet and blame it one barney or just say "you're mad lmao". Oh, maybe complain about ogc or discord or some shit, that will surely solve anything. Just let them post stupid pastas and webm so they can take the spotlight away from the fact that the only people that race nowadays and the retards from some chinese botnet and 5 of your hugbox voip. You and your shitty friends could never take criticism, so I don't expect you to take it now.

C- bait sorry

>gave away enough information to prove they're not new to /ovg/ (saying the last time /ovg/ was good was when Valrys was running a series, blaming barney, etc)
>ramble on too much about things being shitty while being non-specific
>exaggerating an issue that's too favoured against you, clearly just playing devil's advocate

I recommend targeting the doc timer not being good enough because it's harder to argue that it's not true. Revealing less of your /ovg/ lore knowledge would also help in making your shitpost believable.

If you'd like tutoring, hit me up at [email protected]

hello am nan apu apustaja to

GUD BEIT

/ovgrs2/ when?

/ovg/ drag series when?

grid 2 series coming soon be there

haha yeah its bait haha, just shitpost it away so hilarious! I'm sure you're just laughing at me in the mumble right? Thinking how stupid I am, but also wondering who I am I guess. Just kill yourselves and make the world a favour.

/ovg86/ in rfactor when

/ovgt86/*

I'm borrowing a T300 GT right now. The T3PA pedals are shit. The most ridiculous thing about TM pricing is that their shifter is as much as their Pro pedal set. My friend has the T3PA pro and he said he likes them but I've never tried them personally.

This is the exact same thing I recommend. Logitech G pedals with an adapter. The T3PA(non pro) have very little resistance and the conical brake "mod" is a joke.

Even my stock G27 pedals feel much better(and are a lot heavier as a unit), have a catch for playing on carpet and you can get GTEYE springs for even better pedal feel which the T3PA could never match.

>no Miata for at least their Gr.4 race car

For shame.

do i have to wait for another series to sign up for /OVGRAGS/ or is it aight to sign up this late in the series

You can sign up now, sure.

You can sign up now but it'd be kind of a waste of your sign up fee.

We doing another season?

This is not a case of the damage model you daft cunts. It's about being absolute memelords of developping racing games. Why the fuck would codemasters look at physics calculations after setting up the game? Not everyone like read them so they can put shitty thermodynamics and random punctures in it. Think ahead and think like you are little in the brain, and dont fucking complain if people screw up. In the span of two years, nu-codemasters and nu-dirt managed to fuck up so many things and webm it away its legit sad to watch. But maybe one day they can pull their ass off their fucking ass and do something decent.
Now be a good muppet and blame it on r2kguy or just say "you're delusional lmao". Oh, maybe complain about SLRE or RBR or some shit, that will surely solve anything. Just let them post stupid pastas and webm so they can take the spotlight away from the fact that the only people that don't crash nowadays and the retards from some shitty italian spaghetti game and 5 playing SHiT Rally. You and your shitty developers could never take criticism, so I don't expect you to take it now.

>doing Gr.4 race at Nurb GP
>in a S safety rating lobby
>T1 some shitter in a Mustang comes flying on the inside of everyone
>bashes into me
>T3 I punt him off the track in rage
>have a clean race after that
>moved down to A safety rating

Welp.

Yes in NASCAR Heat on arcrap mode so it's not a fuck fest

who

where

GT sport is a sex game

whom'st've

the removal of the tyre restriction is a godsend. its still underpowered but i managed to replace the restrictor with a less restrictive one

its still slow so ill stay low on the banked sections

>motorstorm but shit

How exactly can you tell? Looks fun to me desu.

>inb4 "It's Codemasters so it's automatically shit"

>dude lamo why did you slow down you are supposed to run wide there

...

>that spacing
>those opinions
>codemasters defense
You have to go back.

>tfw still waiting for dirt 4 to get patched
fug

Could you at least give me constructive criticism rather than assuming I'm from Reddit and telling me to fuck off? The trailer wasn't great, but the idea of a new Motorstorm-esque game from the original devs sounds like fun, and could be monumental if It's done right.

Codemasters released the fucking game and just gave up on it lmao. What a mess. They don't even bother anymore.

it's sort of amazing because they definitely won't keep getting people coming for their games if they go down this route, i wonder how they're going to try and build back trust or if they'll just die off

Just got a G920 and dirt rally just wont assign the pedals correctly. Right now it thinks my clutch is the throttle, my brake is the clutch and the throttle is the brake and I dont see anyway to reassign them myself. At least I figured out how to switch to H-pattern shifting but why the did CM decide put half the options not in the options menu?

You do realize that the DiRT and F1 devs aren't working on the new game right? If you had actually done your research, you would of known that the new game is being developed by the old Evolution devs that joined Codies after Sony shut them down, so leave those lazy fucks out of this.

I don't know. DiRT4 was a mistake and they know it. They should've just stuck with Rally and kept updating it with stuff. Rally was amazing but then the corporate dick woke up to fuck the series.

I know. In fact afaik the DiRT4 devs immediately moved on to the new F1 game. So there you have it.

to be fair what i think they did is they hired a bunch of temps for the short development of dirt 4 and f1 2017 and then the skeleton crew focused on patching f1 and is now coming back to do one actual content update for dirt 4 before they end service, rip
at least we'll be able to do leagues so
dirt 4 league soon be there

Truth is, DiRT4 is unfixable. Mainly because it tried to appease both casuals and DR fans. Which is why instead of being good at something, it's mediocre at both.

It just fucking sucks desu.
