rFactor

[nostuner03]

So I obtained rFactor today. The first thing I did was look into mods after I drove for about 20mins. The first one I looked at was CARTFactor. Very fun I must say. Next was the F171Mod and a 1967 F1 Mod that was based of Grand Prix Legends mod. Both are so cool it hurts lol. My first experiences with a true pc sim will have me looking at my ps3 less in the coming weeks.

I been having a blast with rFactor. I been adding alot of hill climb tracks. When I seen a Bergrennen hillclimb track I nearly jumped. I also added the AE86 Club N2 Mod, 76F1,The BTCC super mod with like 9+ seasons of cars, and 60's GT. I also been trying to get alot of 70's f1 tracks.

I just git V8Factor and have started taking the VLN 2007 mod around Bathurst in my old BMW E30. I might be very sloww... but it is still scary but damn brilliant stuff.

 

[nostuner03]

Ooh V8Supercars eh? I think I might try that next.

 

[DK]

Is there any way to buy rFactor these days? Would I have to buy it online?

 

[nostuner03]

Yeah you can still get it from the website for 30 to 40$ I belive.

How do you like the VLN mod? It looks great but don't you need GTR2? I was at an Autoshow in Toronto today, they had a motion sim there running Rfactor at the Ford booth. It was the new Focus ST on the Nurburgring GP track, I set third fastest time (auto trans and braking ). I was wondering is there a way to download the mod for my personal Rfactor? I already have the track, but can't find the car and really want to play around with it, any ideas?

Thats VLN 2009 I think you need GTR2 for.

Yeah, I am slow, but laps of Bathurst in my trusty BMW is improving me slowly.

hello.

This is my first trailer with rfactor, hopefully gradually get better with the cameras, the MOD is a trailer DRM 2.0, hope you like it.

This is a great trailer digiprost 👍

Well, as promised to karl and others last week, I finally got a bit of time to upload my next erm completely non-"epic" video which you can find here.



It's the TCL mod used on a brand new track Attia Stadt GP from the great Rodrrico who is responsible for other great tracks you'll find in the usual places. It's a lot of fun this track with 4 fast straights intermixed with tight complex corners.

Those of you who played GT4 might, like me, be reminded of the great Citta d'Aria, which is much missed in GT5

You'll also no doubt recognise the tune from GT5 in my new (simple) intro put together on Windows free movie maker.

By the time most of you read this there will also be a full race vid up on the same track. Hopefully this might pass a bit of your time while you are eating tomorrow's breakfast/lunch/dinner

I don't think it was mentioned here.. it might have been but many pages back...

There are a few "unreleased" official tracks for rfactor available on the rfactor website. EuroRing, which was released on RFC, and then there's BamaSuperSpeedway (Talladega), Concord International Speedway (Charlotte) and Fort Worth Speedway (Texas). The 3 ovals were essentially betas when they were made available, so they potentially could have issues.

So far I've managed to get Bama into the game and working, after having to make 3 image files for the 43rd pitbox. The other two I'll get to, probably tomorrow.

Under the "Individual Files" link.

Found the exact car and track mod they were running on the sim and was almost 12 seconds faster at home.. thanks to a proper braking system and a transmission that shifted properly.



Lap isn't perfect but I'm happy with it.

Holy crap, I was on a sim rig with that exact same mod last year at the texas state fair.

 

[GTPorsche]

What mod is it?

Any chance of a link to the download, please.

Anyone know of a Silverstone layout with over 50 AI's? I want to race a multi class enduro with the VLN mod but all the Silverstone tracks I have found all run out at about 38 cars.

 

[GTPorsche]

I don't know of any that do.

Also, an update to the BamaSpeedway that I thought I got working. I get halfway down the backstretch and the game crashes.

This is the last line I get in the trace file when it happens.

setup.cpp    2313: Could not find Alabama500.ini

Not really sure how to fix this as I've never had to deal with this type of error before.

Thanks, much appreciated.

I noticed on the rfactoresources site they have a mod called VTCC, it features the Civic & Focus touring cars. I tried downloading it but my internet provider keeps blocking it, has anybody else had any success?

 

[nostuner03]

I recently added V8Factor, 1985F1, 1988F1, ATM touring car legends, an SW20 MR2 mod, Group C legends and a F5000 73' season. Also, a whole host of real tracks to compliment each series I got. 70's Fuji is awesome in a Group A AE86. My replacement GT3RS v.2 is coming in soon so I wint have to use my Dual Shock3. Can't wait to try rfactor out with a wheel and use realfeel FF setting.

Hey guys, I've been playing rFactor with the f1s-r 1994 l.e. mod. Everything was working great, no dropped frames, nothing.

Until I updated windows seven. Now when I start the program I get the sound, but a blank screen. Any suggestions on a fix?

 

[Furinkazen]

Running as administrator?

 

[flooderqb19]

Yeah, I tried that. Still just a blank screen. The game itself loads. The music in the menu plays, and the intro music plays. There just isn't any display on the screen.

In other words the screen is black, but lit like it is supposed to be showing something

 

[Furinkazen]

Check your "rF Config" file in your game's root folder. What do you have on?
