Formula 1 1988 released

@carrera.4,
I am using your trackpack, and Spa 1988 works well, even with post processing enabled (in rain I have to disable reflections, but that's fine). I hit issue on this track that Safety Car phase does not end correctly. I wonder if that is because SC is parked before S/F line, and on most tracks it is parked at pit exit. Is it possible to get that looked into? Thanks :)
 
Hey All,

Can somebody help me with the following issue please?

I have tried to modify the GDB file of Imola so I was extract the gdb file with mas tool change it then put it back and created the mas file again.

Unfortunately after that the tracks won't appear inside the game.

Can somebody tell me what I did wrong?

Thank you in advance,

Philip
 
Ah, then i suppose that this is a package that includes tracks.
Take all the .mas files of the folder ...\rfactor 2\Installed\Vehicles\This vehicle\version\
Create a rfcmp file including all the .mas files (replacing the original with your .mas)

Thanks bro it works!
 
Hi @carrera4 .
I've send you a discussion for a new project.
Are you still active?
Or anybody have some life signs from carrera4? ;)
Thanks, i would not use this mod without authors permission.
Carrera4 is the last one that i wait for.
Thanks.

I think carrera4 is not on these forum anymore ;)

Maybe carrera.4 yes :)
 
So I don’t know how active this thread is, and I’m not looking through all 19 pages as I tried that on steam and only a few had the same problem. This mod is great an all but during slow speed corners (mid corner) the car just spins out. The only way to avoid this is by putting a very very small amount of lock and going very slowly. This is either a mod problem or the stock setup is garbage (which I think is the case)
Any tips for a setup that gets rid of this problem? I’ve tried messing with rear toe and aero but it doesn’t seem to work
 
Ok so i know its been like 3 months and I haven't been able to play since but based on watching other people's mistakes, I come to the conclusion that downshifting is the problem. I only have paddle shifters so maybe it is too rough on the downshifts or too many downshifts in too little time. I will have to try something out next week.
 
These cars can make 300 Km/h and have only 6 gears, jump from gear to gear, especially in the lower ones, is pretty big. You can't downshift like crazy, like you do in modern F1 mods for example. If you do, the rear axle will lock and spin is the only outcome.
Wait for RPM to decrease enough, and you can downshift safely.
 
Or you can increase differential settings. P. S. Those who don't use all pedals and Hshifter are missing out lots of fun.

Blip the throttle on downshifts and it will be fine.
 
Well that is what you do when engine braking is too hard, you cancel it by some application of throttle. Braking in straight line as much as possible helps too.

With cars like this, I like to skip gears when downshifting. Just blip is not enough. You have to use every tool in the disposal if engine brake is too interfering.

The blip, waiting of rpm to drop low enough, straighten braking path, brake bias, downforce increase/balance, dampers and suspension to control pitch, hardening front, softening rear rebound damping, differential preload and coast lock increase, wheel alignment.

Engine braking has always fascinated me. As much as I know it is possible to control amount of vacuum that causes engine braking. I wonder when it is only that much what engineer can do to battle engine braking torque, and why. Also very interested if by some chance engine braking could be used to some degree as braking power addition, although it obviously makes driving fast more demanding, and more challenging for a driver. In my personal opinion it is best when there is just a tiny bit of locking at the rear when braking, besides adding some braking power it often also helps to rotate the car a bit more in the curves.
