[WIP] Indycar 2018

Hi guys,

I'm in the middle of a conversion with Vitor Souza's 2018 Indycar mod.
(https://vsmotorsportsmodding.webnode.com/vsm-indycar-2018-spin-off-released/)
The physics turned out better than I would ever hoped and so I asked help for the making of skins and DX11 conversion. I got that help; they are doing great work and I am very thankful!
Philrob is working on the DX11 parts; it's all magic to me, but he is working it!
Whitmore is working on the skins; also being a wizard to me!

Just today I got permission from Vitor and so; publishing is a real option!
A few problems still like animated driver hands (so if anyone wants to have a go, please feel free to volunteer) but it should all be good.

I made a small video; sorry its in slow-mo, but thats just the way replay works on my machine.........

Well; I hope there is some interest in this one!

 

Great news. Thank you very much for doing this!

 

Great news Nav...if you can implement the visor in VR, I love that in GP3 mod…
Thanks for bringing us an updated Indycar

 

Thanks for the enthousiasm guys; very nice to read and to know!
I'm mainly a "physics guy" (and that is coming along way more nicely than I would ever hoped!) and so I needed help with the other stuff.
A visor in VR...…..I will have a look, but for the first release, I can't make a promise.

 

Have a word with Devin. He implemented the visor in his V10 mod. Should be able to point you in the right direction.

 

Maybe I will, but there's a 1001 things to sort out first......

 

Physics are coming along nicely, but I need it tested......
If there are guys out there who have a feeling for this and follow the Indycar series, please let me know via pm?
You don't "have" to follow the series, but if you think 350 km/h on a road course "seems okay", that would not be useful

 

Thanks for all your messages guys; there are enough testers right now, so its not needed anymore.

Lol, tested if the AI was up to speed at Toronto on blacks with 75% fuel:

How's the mod coming along?

 

At this moment, there seems to be a problem......
Physics are very different when testers drive the car.

On holidays now, so a few weeks and I dive in it again.

 

Okay, sounds good. Thanks.

A bit of an update; while Whitmore was busy making awesome skins, kpf480 came in and said he already has all the skins, suits and helmets.
So I contacted Whitmore what to do and he said it was good not to reinvent the wheel and take the set from kpf480.
He can show them on the model (same model we use) in the game; hence the pictures.

This is of course a good injection for the mod although some problems still need to be sorted out.

 

Can't see any pictures

Merci - that worked. Great shots of an eagerly anticipated mod. Thanks for your efforts to bring this to fruition.
