@ChiefWiggum thanks for the update great stuff... can I ask if the 1978 mod is still alive ? It looked great no pressure just wondering
Guys, getting a error starting rF2 with the CART 85 .89 update : "gMotor 2 Error, Error getting stats for texture BLACK.DDS, Error loading texture BLACK for material M85C_ROAD_COLL, Mesh : m85c_road_coll, instance : SLOT000"
Works now for me. Thanks for the update, and that final Indy 500 car! Also thanks to Chris for the work on the skins!
I made a little update for this great mod. I created car icons for the new UI and talent files. I had to edit the vehicle filters to make the talent files work. I haven't tested these extensively, but they seem to work ok. Download and install these two packages and enjoy! I'd like to thank ChiefWiggum for his work and for allowing me to post these files. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9eo4ui5paxcp1uk/PPG CART 1985_Talent.rfcmp?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/vzotrsop1ay3ai0/PPG CART 1985_v091.rfcmp?dl=0
I keep forgetting on how good this mod is. These updates really helps out! Although, you should be able to combine all the .mas into one package.
Yeah, that's one of the thing I still need to learn about rFactor2. I'm not a newcomer to simracing and modding, but this packaging stuff doesn't feel very user or modder friendly to me. I'll have a look at this.
yup, the first couple times it seems brutal. just make back ups and be organized with some filing. After a while and your making lots of tweaks it becomes second nature.
Such a great mod this one. You can have some epic battles with the AI around those famous US tracks like Mid Ohio, Laguna Seca, Belle Isle, Portland, Road America, VIR and Road Atlanta. These battles are probably as good as anything I've experienced within the sim. The only issue really is with the durability. I had to turn off Mech failures completely to enjoy this. I'm not the cleanest in my gear shifting but it should be good enough to get me through most 20 min races that I do. It's particularly an issue on Oval with the Indy car variant, you can't drive a lap without smoke bellowing out of the back. Another tip I would give to folks running this, is to not run with full flags, RF2 is so buggy with that I find, this is obvious not mod related but I tend to run with black flags only for the best experience.
