rFactor 2 Armed with a BIG Announcement for Simracing Expo

There's a section with 3 scrollable parts and one of them mentions HTML stuff

 

Amazing news, that it`s what i would call "Big"

 

I see it now. I think I was blinded with euphoria after seeing the Oculus/Vive support confirmed.

Still, I don't see that as necessarily bad. They're still linking to Steam to buy. The front end stuff, honestly, could use work anyways. So I don't think it has to be a bad thing.

 

OK, that is both big and unexpected

 

I'm very very happy!!

 

Thats the same software company/community which worked with Reiza on Automobilista

 

thats good news. really really good news. i had given up completely on rf2 due to the lack of vr support and have done all my racing for 2 years with iracing since then.
but the day rf2 finally really adds vr support i will be joining back in to my old league in a heartbeat.

very exciting and great news all around.

 

All I need now is single-player championship support and I'll never need another race sim.

 

Lots of pretty good guessing! I think this is an awesome step forward. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

 

I wonder if anything else will be announced over the expo? Tim said main news so perhaps more to come for the immediate future

 

Yes, and if they bring the same benefits to rF2 as they have to AMS and Reiza, we will all be very, very happy.

This is 100% good news from my perspective.

 

But just for the steam move, isn`t it? More in that direction how the structure of the files should be for steam etc. and not on the core, physics or graphics.

 

I plan on getting vive in 2017. I was concerned I would prefer to race assetto corsa due to vr support. Now I can happily continue racing the sim I find the most pleasurable and rewarding.

I am curious why they stopped at dx11 and did not aim for dx12 or Vulcan. I dont know the technical side of it so I dony know if it is simply not possible.

 

DX11, 12 or 9 is not important, I always use pCars example when it was DX9 and it used to look as stunning as DX11 mode, maybe a bit of performance increase.

Really looking forward at rain improvements, the current weather visuals and physics are not at the same level of the rest of the rF2.

 

Woah, ISI!

This commitment to rF2 is fantastic to see. My favourite sim by far so couldn't be happier.

 

No, they did more than that

 

Nice find. Suddenly the whole partnership makes a ton of sense.

 

Nice finding, many thanks for sharing

 

DX11 & VR support. hoping there is more than that neither of those are important to me.

 

Sweet -- Dx11+VR + rF2 +OSW ~~~~~~~ need to start saving again lol best news in sim racing for years IMO .
