Hi everyone, LRP was version updated to v1.41 today. Reasons for this are twofold. Firstly, we want to bring things to v1.4x, regardless of what they are, this will make it a lot easier for you to see you have the latest, and for people to say 'grab version 1.4 of everything'. It also allows us to have a named 'technology step' on the content, and know that 1.4 on all content is feature compatible with build a, while 1.5 contains everything needed for build b (and you can be told that easily). You will also notice on the mod, a php link ending with getmod.php. There is a new verification and download system, and we needed to put the track out again to get that out. The reason why I didn't come here and announce it, which appears to have irked some, is because of the type of release it was. I'm not going to create a big fanfare for a versioning release. Secondly, I just released a private project we worked on that (because it's fun) we decided to release to you in the Dev Corner. Formula R/C are scaled down F2 (used with permission) cars with R/C physics. They're meant to be driven from trackside cams, and it is relatively easy to make a track with cones, setup a single camera, and have some fun with it. We'll possibly release a few track layouts for this in the future, but as it is a side project, and it's just a bit of fun letting you have it, please see it as such. Thanks for your understanding. Cheers, Tim
You are a genius! I never even thought of using the 360 controller for it despite one sitting a foot away from me.
This is exactly what I mean, as I explained in my thread I started today. I know it's just a fun sort of un-official side project mod, but regardless, why isn't this stuffed announced on the game launcher in a news section, or on the homepage of ISI's website, like it just happens to be in some random thread. No announcement, no notification, nothing, just post in a random thread on some forum and hope for the best. This really needs to change.
Probably the first time ISI have annoyed me XD I have to redownload the whole LRP fileset, just for a versionnumber change?? Our internet in NZ is pretty terrible by international standards, slow and with very low data caps. Just irks me, as why on earth do I need to get the same textures/models/whatever. Like Spinelli says, a newsfeed in the launcher would be great. I remember RACE07 had a semi news feed. More for advertising though XD The one I really like is Rise of Flight, they have one that details everything about new planes and patches and changes, etc. I never go on their forums, but can keep up to date with core content.
That Formula RC sounds pretty interesting, im a big fan a RC Cars myself. Although, though i got the mod, where to race it? Please release at least one basic track to try the mod out on
I wonder if it will work with my vrc usb and my rc control. Ill guess ill have to down load and find out
that looks like great fun! anyone driven them yet? I really wonder how the physics engine copes with those light weights
how nice the r/c cars surprise my brother and me have driven those cars on circuits when we were young, to bad i don't have the controller anymore from back then and the adapter for the pc I won at an event playing a indycargame, which introduced me to pc racing games. Great fun just tried it! If my memory serves me right i thought you were able to make more sharp turns, the turning circle seems quit big but I could be wrong. Perhaps it's something i can change with setup or need to use the brakes more to let it turn, if anyone has a suggestion how to setup for sharper turn-in that would be welcome. PS which scale is it? 1:10 or 1:8(or other)? and if you are gonna make a circuit in the future for this it would be great if you would make this layout, a circuit I raced in the netherlands http://www.machheemstede.nl/home/index.php/circuit
Agreed. I know rF2 owners who have no clue of these updates because they don't follow the forum/facebook/twitter. News and updates should be handled by the launcher so that the player need not go elsewhere.
why in 'new' mod you still do that same mistakes? why mirrors blinking and aren't adjust to mirror's edges?
they did nothing with the track if I read tim message right, so that would be very logical (Edit: oops misread your post, you were talking about car)
RC cars are so great! A lot of fun driving it on Lime Rock's parking space Can't wait for some tracks for RC.
nothing but 'update' released.. wtf? second, why window of mirror aren't adjust in mirror's edges? student was do that, who work for free, or group of IT specialists? we all speaks about it past year shame for you isi
Wow cool Stuff. I am driving RC Cars for 12 years now and i love them for beeing relatively cheep and fun racing in a Championship. Thank you very much ISI!
