    This is buried away in another thread, thought its pretty damn cool myself and deserving of its own recognition especially for those that did'nt see it!

    Tim goes on to reply about what exactly needs updating:

    I would have thought this was obvious, and known by everyone. The mirrors on the historics, etc, all require updates to the newest code/settings/graphics engine when the time is right.

    I think what they are on about is that you seem to be saying that you'll be bringing the tracks from rfactor 1 to rfactor 2 although that isn't the way I read it ... can you confirm or deny?

    ETA: OFFICIAL tracks that is (ISI created)

    True but it`s always good to have these things "confirmed" as it were. :)

    well no not really Tim, fixing a missing building at Monaco is one thing but rebuilding a track is totally different. Its sometimes nice to let the masses know what you're working on, not everyone reads every single post you make or even knows what happens with each build and progress made forward!

    Well that`s not what I took from it at all...

    Historic Monaco is not in rf for a start and that`s an eg track that Tim mentions in his posts. So no, I don`t think it`s about bringing tracks from rf to rf2...

    :)

    How, exactly? Because I feel you're interpreting your own thing here.

    So then there really is some vague list of tracks they are working on that we don't know about :) And they aren't coming out right now because the engine is still fluxing to much I guess :)

    interpreting what?!?! how?! I'm supplying information to people who may not of seen it, its quite a big bit of news IMO and all you're doing is acting in your usual condenscending way instead of saying " yeah thats what we're working on, rebuilding current tracks during the games process just incase some of you did'nt know"....how wrong is it to say that instead of coming across in the way that you do!?!? and no I cant PM this as you've turned yours off.......


    beggars belief

    Only certain is uncertain, however misunderstanding comes close to being certain :)

    The proper term here is "retouch" and not "rebuild".

    Huh?

    Monaco, just to give you an example of how small a piece of new this actually is, needs a texture format change to make the texture visible on the building. "Rebuilding" can mean many things, and I think you're going for the most lavish interpretation rather than the simplest. :)

    Condescending? No idea where that comes from. I thought I was just clicking reply.

    Nobody has said this as far as ISI, I did say that I know some modders are waiting for this reason. Yes.

    AHHHH! I'm so confused - are you saying that ISI is bringing the old rfactor 1 tracks to rfactor 2 or no?

    As I was talking about multiple things, rebuild was appropriate to the context of the post. But it has caused it to skew when posted in bright lights and a new thread, without the posts it was made in response to.

    For example, we won't retouch the wipers on the cars, we'll rebuild them. I was talking about many things.

    I haven't said that, no. I never mentioned rF1 at all.

    And I'm not surprised you're confused by this thread.

    Old = already released rF2 content
    Rebuild = Fix what broke or became outdated due to changes to the simulation or engine.
