Hi guys! I'm searching for this! The Panoz DP01 is an open-wheel car that was produced by Élan Motorsport Technologies at Braselton, Georgia, United States. It was developed for use in the 2007 Champ Car World Series season, replacing the aging de facto-spec Lola chassis. The DP01 was introduced to the world at the 2006 Grand Prix of San Jose on July 28, 2006. Due to the February 2008 sale of Champ Car to the Indy Racing League, which uses its own spec equipment, the car is not currently used in a professional racing series in the United States. The final race for the car was the 2008 Grand Prix of Long Beach.
they are doing modern GT3s now, and i think there is just no demand for a random formula car.
I stopped updating CSP/Sol at 140/1.2.3 due to this (that combo still works reasonably well). Major game-breaking issues abound in subsequent updates, unless your use case scenario consists of taking single cars out for 1-2 test laps and moving on, ADHD-style, to the next mod (as I suspect is the case for many users).
@Fanapryde thanks for that Mid Ohio, finally not only a smooth MO, but incredibly nice! But then again, its by Terra so...
RSS could have a look on the Brabham BT46b, It will be a sweet pair with the Formula (Lotus) 79 !
I don't see how you could disagree with me preferring one over the other ?
As for how it drives, it's not because it is fairly safe and forgiving, that it is not realistic. This is what they are made for:
"""""This category was meant to be an introduction to new racers that wanted to get started in the competition ambient, therefore, this car is easy to drive, cheap, and fun."""""
The newer one (that now has been removed from RD) did not reflect this behavior. It was also set too high and did not feel realistic at all.
I have done my fair share of track time and I am not agreeing with the "if it's easy to drive it can't be realistic' idea of some sim racers.
If I want a difficult drive, I go back to the classic race cars (as there are a lot of good ones for AC).
But if you happen to prefer the (ex)RD model, be my guest, have fun
Thanks for helping me.
I used QuickBMS to extract/decrypt the file and successfully changed it from -0.899 to -3.989. I also fixed the gear ratios for the others because they were inaccurate and I found RW data for them. Reverse speed is 79 km/h max now, on par with the kunos Ferarri P4.
Oh, sorry, it's just my English. I meant I prefered that one
I don't think either every car must kill you in the first corner, but I drove so much boring, idiot proof car lately, this car was a good surprise.
And yes I understand he just copied the files etc. but had some luck with it it seems, because it was believable for me.
It seems as this value sets one cycle of the animation to equal one rotation of the wheel. Most animations go from one turn left to one turn right, so 720°, and if the wheel needs to turn any further the animation can just loop. However if an animation was created which covered a greater sweep, I guess for Rally or Drift cars, then the above value would need to be different.
Thanks a lot mate! ...I was going crazy looking around the net for any info on who built the originals.
At least now I can properly credit the authors.
The physics is anyway redone completely from scratch, as the skins are, but I would feel bad releasing the mod without thanking and giving credits to the ones that picked up all the 3D models (there are about 30 different cars).
Thanks again !!!
another few shoots while I am cleaning the folders; the Shelby and the Javelin:
Is the other one not working? tried it after u/l and it worked...
