Maserati Trofeo GranTurismo MC Series

Stop teasing us all with that beautiful track, feels!

 

This is an extremely good car and a very positive start to the mod, but the sounds need a bit of touching up, just some more exhaust crackle and snorting. just a bit of re-do here and there. but the sounds are very good dont get me wrong.

Thanks guys all of the feedback!

I know few texture are not so good, but i'm still working, and waiting for the new update.

@feeels
Great video! Thanx for sharing, and one question, when we can try your Croft? It's a very good and exciting track! You did a very good job!!

 

i dont understand how to install this?

 

Hi there,

the sounds are my part in this session. The sounds are recordings from the original engine. The problem is that rFactor's sound engine is unable to simulate all nature's influences on the sound. If you record close by, you will get lower tones and less crackling and snorting. If you record from a huge distance, you get what you hear in the video. It is almost impossible yo get the sounds exactly right.

Also keep in mind that microphones differ a lot.

 

Great work on the mod Tommy, can't wait to give it a go when i get a chance!

Okay, I understand.

Yeah that's true. Thanks for your response. But they are very good sounds though.

 

Tommy78 can you upload just the cars please, not all the links work for the tracks on sites. :/

 

Great work!!!!! Keep it up. 8 ) Sounds great...

 

Mod installed without a hitch last night, and I spent an hour or two driving around Infineon and Fuji. What an awesome car this is, really fun to drive on the limit and throw around corners, plenty of power and responsiveness, but without being too unbelievable. All in all I had a great time, and once I'm done typing this I'm going to go and drive it again - but I'd like to offer some constructive criticism, maybe it will help you improve the mod (don't take offence!).


- The FFB to me feels very light, I'm not sure if it could be done, but a heavier feel would be nice.
- The cockpit window is very 'milky', and makes driving somewhat difficult. I drive on the roof camera because of this, which I hate.
- The skins seem to be lacking depth, like there isn't enough saturation, compare the in-game with real-life cars:

- You can see that the real life example has much richer and deeper colours, compared to the faded in-game look.


That's all. Once again, it's a great mod and I'm having a lot of fun with it, but there is some room for small improvements.

 

Hadn't thought of that! Cheers.

 

The "depth" could be fixed quite easily. It is due to our computers the shadows cannot be processed, it would cost too much rendering time. However it could be simulated by adding darker spots on the texture itself so they are pre-rendered.

 

OP: Really starting to enjoy this mod. It has alot of potential IMO and can't wait to see what it looks like when ISI start turning the candy up. FFB feels very nice IMO for so early on.

 

Good video Fonismo. What circuit is recommended to test this mod??

 

I'm getting this error. What could it be? I have all tracks....

Thanks!

Good video, what's this head move ? Track-IR or plug-in ?

 

Very fun mod! Tried last night for about an hour on snetterton and PBI. On snetterton, was very fun, predictable and I could really throw the car around a LOT more than any ISI car. Watching the car bump a little and react on small bumps is really awesome.
On PBI however, I couldn't seem to control it for some reason. Seemed much more slippery. Could just be my little knowledge with tuning, but it seemed to just slide slide slide on this course. After a while I got used to it and it was all good.
AI seems to be ok with the car too.
Sound is pretty sweet and beefy. Visually inside the car is great, above and beyond except for the milkyness that seems to occur with light sources from behind mostly (at least how I noticed)
I noticed this because I played Snetterton during early morning and got the headlights being stuck on the road bug; everytime I passed those stuck lights, the over-brightness only occured once I passed them, and they shown behind.

I seem to be having an outer visual issue that doesn't seem mentioned. Or maybe it was? In replay and viewing the outside of the car, I have no front bumper. At all. HAve a feeling it IS there, but not showing up to me. Forgive me if this was already mentioned.

Simple expected bugs that aren't game breaking much at all. I can easily say this will probably be my most played car at this point

 

So, what did you do? I have the same, it's a real FPS killer for me. Have to turn settings down to drive it smoothly.

I do like it a lot though! It's a very nice car to drive. I really can't wait till it's released in a state that I can use it for a club race Very exciting, nice work! Keep it up.

 

Thank You for this link FONismo.... Hooorah!
