    Hi isi

    i'd like to report the following issue

    the definition of front and rear wheel track doesn't work

    Indeed, the front wheel track width is applied on both and rear track

    And the rear wheel track widrh is not applied at all at any track

    Check this issue by the followinf tip : put

    FrontWheelTrack=0.548 //1.635 // if non-zero, forces the front wheels to be specified track width
    RearWheelTrack=1.578 //1.635 // if non-zero, forces the rear wheels to be specified track width
    LeftWheelBase=2.693 //2.735 // if non-zero, forces the left side to use specified wheelbase
    RightWheelBase=2.693 //=2.735 // if non-zero, forces the right side to use specified wheelbase

    And you will see that the front and rear wheels are all placed inner the body

    Rgds

    The naming convention has changed with rF2, try this:

    FrontWheelTrackRange=(2.0,0,1)
    RearWheelTrackRange=(1.8,0,1)

    :)

    Works fine thank you ! By the way, we need to be very careful with adaptation of our rf1 mod onto rf2 platform. What was true for rf1 is not longer good for rf2

    It is surprising actually how little has changed (physics wise). That track width is one thing, but there is not much I can recall. There is new engine simulation with rF2, but rF1 engine files work fine as is. Of course tire physics are now done with TGM file, so rF1 tire system does not work with rF2.
