Thanks heavens you're not him. You can't add a coat of shiny paint to a broken wall and say it's perfect.
pleclair you are still my favorite person when it comes to sim racing, I asked for Nordschleife for rF2, and you gave it to me. Cant beat that... well the one who makes DRM or historX may come close. Great job as always. Hopefully we'll see fruits of your labor soon, if not with nords, then with some other project.
A 24" 1920x1200 decent quality monitor is about Cdn$350. Of course you can go up from there in size, quality and cost.
Hey pleclair, for me Nordschleife is the pinnacle of all tracks and rFactor2 is my favorite sim atm, so you can't believe how much I want to thank you for doing this and making it possible to drive the best track in the world in rF2! Having the feeling that a lot of work was to no avail is really hard, believe me, I know what I'm talking about, for me it was several years of work, just recently What you have achieved with the e version already is really really good, in fact so good it's almost impossible the improve. So even if you have the feeling right now that some of the work on g was for nothing because not everybody liking it, I'm sure not all of the work is lost, there's always something that was learned. As close to perfection the textures are in e you probably should focus on something else for a while, for example the some small gaps between the track surface tarmac polygons and the surface polygons on the side of the track, probably occurred when smoothing the track surface. I can take some screenshots if you want help to find them. Or just drive around on the beautiful track, the thing you have made possible for all of us and that makes us so happy! Keep it up! Cheers, flitzi
here is an example of what I mean with the small gaps. This is on detail level full, if of importance. View attachment 10637
The BitSync version works fine here. HDR would go in rFactor2\UserData\player\Settings\Nordschleife_Tourist.
pleaclair Personally I think v0.97e was better, though a bit dark. v0.97g is brighter, however the vegetation looks a bit cartoon-ish. A balance between the two might be the sweet spot in my opinion. Great work!
Pleclair, it takes a true hero to make something as big and beautiful as this. You should be very very proud!
Hey pleclair, I've found a nice solution for the grass. Drop me a PM if you are interested and I send you some psd's. Morning Noon Evening Evening HDR off
That was the BitSync version. Tried it twice. Also tried MEGA, but that download didn't even start for some reason. Stuck at the cloud loading page, never even get to the dowmload button. The old versions work fine on MEGA and install fine in the game. Very weird!
