    Also make sure Autodetail FPS is off.

    I've used all ISI content and tried all the highly rated mods. Cockpit view only. Auto detail FPS is always off. Only with this mod, and the Lola T280, parts of the car disappear when they are far enough away. I'll try with bonnet view next time, if it's of any use to anyone.

    Ok so objects have a set distance when to be drawn, lods are implemented to help fps. No point in drawing a car in full detail 200 meters away. So say a track has trees that are drawn 500meters away you come on a short straight and there they are, but braking markers are drawn in at 200 meters. The straight is 250 meters so you hit the straight and then they pop up. Like wise with the cars, the lowest lod may be drawn in at 500 meters, but a straight is 750 meters, so again they pop in or up. As the car gets closer they switch to more detail. In rfactor this was so easy so address with editing the cam.cam file and increasing the lod multiplier. I wish in rfactor2 they switched this to the plr, but sadly not. Some mods I can edit myself and just re-package, no good for online but for me it's ok as I hate pop up and when racing the AI. However because people rip mods, these guys have locked down the MAS so no fun for me. Hence the request.
    Hope my explanation helps.And it would be easy for the modding group to add as an upgrade too. Pleeeeaaaaassssseeeee....
    BTW GTX 1080 with DSR 4K rocks on single screen.

    My apologies, I noticed last night in the Indy car round Road America that the same 'disappearing parts at distance' was occurring. So not just this mod and T280.

    About the overblown washed-out White on the cars, i'd recommend to not use almost pure white for the skins. It's not recommended by the devs, because of rF2 is using albedo maps in HDR mode.

    Just read this from the Dev-corner -> Texture maps and color saturation

    Quoting:
    Whenever i paint a car livery for rF2, i always try to follow this advise. And yes, a white car or some logos with color 180-180-180 look very "grey" in the paint tool, but ingame it looks right.

    I just noticed that the front inside wheel is not touching the ground quite often, verified through MoTeC as well. I'm assuming that can't be right.

    If during cornering a with the outside-front loaded up that's entirely possible, and actually common with some RWD cars with strut front suspension layouts. Spend some time looking through pictures of cars through Turn 17 at Sebring...

    I'm not saying it's not possible, I'm saying it happens quite a lot with these and I don't think that's correct. I haven't noticed it while watching real Carrera Cup races.

    Ok, the issue is known (on the Endurance Series too), we work on DX11 adaptation to solve this with the support of S397

    May I ask if there is an estimated release date for the shader update?

    That's quite an overhaul, guys! All of your efforts for rF1 and rF2 releases are most certainly appreciated!

    Now...to figure out how to get DX11 build to run "adequately" on my system to be able to have a race with a small amount of AI. ;-p
