Thx for this Interview Mr Offermans. Jetzt einmal in meiner Heimtsprache. Ich weiss es gehört nicht hierhin, aber einmal ist keinmal oder? Ich bin dem Englischen leider nicht sehr mächtig, dennoch möchte ich sagen, dass RF2 für mich die Sim ist. Danke Herr Offermans, Sie und ihr Team machen da einen Spitzen Job. Auch wenn der Ton hier oft sehr Harsch wird, was mir auch nicht gefällt, so denke ich, dass der Großteil der Community hinter euch steht. Ich freue mich sehr auf die NOS, dass UI und hoffe persöhnlich sehr, auf eine baldige Optimierung der AI. Aber alles geht nunmal nicht auf einmal, dass weiss ich doch. Macht einfach weiter so. Ihr seid Spitze und euer Produkt beweisst das.
Apparently Marcel gives the opportunity for someone in the community how wants to update the old content of ISI do it on their own, so @Marcel Offermans if any chanse to do this like the free sofware?. Content like the old Spa, Monaco and Monza are indredible, It would be good to keep them alive and updated, a project of forum members (?) https://forum.studio-397.com/index....-modding-world-is-possible.63187/#post-988482 CC @vivemclaren
About the 3D grass taking time to put down on all older content. Couldnt you write a script that you tell which textures to plop out 3D grass on? I remember using some game editor and you told what textures 3D grass should be put on so they didnt end up on metal and tarmac etc. Then its coded in what types of spread, rotation and all that. Maybe its tough to implement a script like that and then save the result because i know NOTHING about these things except on the surface.
3d grass, music and pit animations... Wtf I can think of 3 better questions Geez. No wonder sims don't progress
"Also, we have fairly robust on-line play with intelligent prediction technology to ensure that even with some latency, we can still allow very close racing without (m)any surprises." this didn't age well
Previous parts had questions about physics updates (gear box included), AI, future content and bug fixes which I guess your 3 "better questions" are included there. The interview cover a lot of aspects, nothing wrong with that. But one only see what he wants, no wonder sims dont progress indeed.
Great questions well answered liked his honesty. Would love to see something done here in the S397 forums like this interview in the future. As for the new UI those weeks have turned into 1 month lets hope they are still on target as it must not be far away at all.
Part of that was the web site admins interacting with Marcels. Since this is more of a hostless forum, it would be difficult to arrange a long series of questions. Discord might be more of an immediate feedback discussion. Then somebody could copy the conversation and plop it here.
He said 'weeks rather than months'. That doesn't mean less than a month. I should just mean not 6 months lol
