Are the following tracks available for rfactor 1? If not, what are the chances they will come out for rf2? Dundrod Isle of Mann full mountain course Machwerx Solitude Rouen Essarts Urbanya Jops Siffert I absolutely LOOOOVE these tracks in GPL but since it's such as hassle getting GPL to run properly on my machine, as well a few bugs here and there, it usually isn't worth the time and effort. Would much rather drive these circuits in a modern sim like rF2
Truly FULL 60km long Isle of Mann doesn't exist for GPL either, there is "only" the 24km abridged version. Which does exist for rfactor as well, but it is unauthorized conversion and not looking that great. Never heard about Urbanya but everything else is there for rf1.
Max and osello, very much appreciated for your replies! Your posts makes me want to hunt down a copy of rFactor. *BUT*.....the obvious question is, how do these rF1 versions of Machwerk, Rouen, Isle of Man, Jops Siffert, Dundrod and Solitude compare to their GPL counterparts graphically? Do they share that kinda "photorealistic" look that GPL has? How's the textures, the lighting, etc?
They're all great in rfactor as well. I'm only not sure about jops siffert because I didnt really like the layout so dont remember much. But solitude, rouen and machwerk are one of my alltime favorites in rf.
Jops Siffert: http://legends-league.com/downloads/other/Posters big/Siffert.jpg Yes, enhanced with photoshop, i know, but could not resist as we just finished a weeklong session on rf1/Jops and it was freaking awesome Previous event was on Solitude and omg, why didn't we use this track before in our league? so much fun and atmosphere! We are using F167's on these tracks. Our event-posters:
Solitude is a pice of art and of the coolest layouts ever, just a shame AI has some problems with the twisty part as I prefer offline racing.
Start off a thread with 2 tracks that are RIPS !@! If you have any knowledge you already know they most likely will never have permission, not the current versions anyways. lol
Did not need permission http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=11531 Permission http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=34579 Permission http://forum.emacberry.com/viewtopic.php?f=107&t=6155 ( although this one from F1Challenge always looked like GPL terrain to me ( hang on I clean my glasses .........nah still looks like GPL cambers ) ........but it never got no mention .......... Permission http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=19013 URBANYA is not at rFC or NG I can find which is unusual if it has permission. You can run GPL any CPU any GPU any OS.
I only gave you a bad rep because you well know about Isle and Dundrod rip history, do not try to kid otherwise. You want to give me one for telling the truth fine. lol All threads like this do is give a in for someone to say they have a ripped track ( see 2nd post ) whoop whoop ??? How about some respect for the author ? http://jrpearson.homestead.com/GPLCIRCUITS.html No wonder he will never allow a conversion.
I watched a quick video of the rF1 version of Dundrod, and it doesn't compare to the GPL one graphically. The GPL looks miles better. Hope if they bring it to rF2 it will be a more authentic version than the one in rF1. How often do you guys race?
HUUUUUGE props for posting those links ma nickle!!!!! Was wondering where I could d/l the tracks so you just saved me the trouble. Good lookin ma nickle!!
