New Year, new car

Happy New Year everybody. Especially all those at ISI.
I'm a tad better than useless on the track and I dont know the first thing about tuning or setups. What I do know is the excitement and the irrational behaviour I get when I jump into my home made cockpit and fire up rFactor. I have been following the progress of rFactor2 and am so excited when you release the little titbits.
So I say THANKYOU ISI for rFactor and thankyou ahead of time for number 2.
Keep up the good work.
I hope your year is as good as I hope mine will be.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
 
Hello To all
Happy New Year to all the Hard workers at ISI.
Party hard now and get back to work :lol: A little kid as I can not wait for RF2 I know it is going to be awesome.

Happy new year everyone, looks like "Racing Legends" is coming back to life (though I hope I don't jinx anything by saying this ;-))

All the best Uwe
 
I have to disagree, dark lines may come of small oil leaks from the bottom of the car. Have a look at aerial photos of large avennues and you'll see dark lines down there. Of course, at breaking zones you'll realize much more dark zones because of skid marks, but still...

I liked too much of new vegetation's style. It's a significant evolution from RF1.

With regards the line, there shouldn't be any there. The dark line comes from the tire being under load. This comes in braking, turning and early acceleration areas, very unlikely in the middle of a straight or any area where that load is not present.

You too, Happy New Year Shum. :)

Thank you for your patience, thank you for your business and a very Happy New Year to everyone from everybody at ISI. 2011 will be a very exciting year.

Here is a screenshot from Belgium with some editing made to it where the consistency/balance of the WIP software was not correct right now. We're absolutely clear on this, right? :)

In any case, the car is the star. ;) This is a 'picture postcard' wishing you happy holidays... Happy New Year everybody.

I only see a line on straight-ish sections where the track surface is very, very light. But remember, this is also modern cars, modern tires. These cars are being pushed into the track and the tires are soft, that is not how cars or tires used to be. I would love to see a historic photo (from this car/track era perhaps) which showed a dark racing line on a straight if you could find one. :)

It's also important to realize that this shot could also have been taken on the first lap of a session on a clean track which hadn't yet built up anything. I think the guys have done a great job with how things look. We'll show you some nice time lapse videos sometime of things like rubber build up and wet surface/dry line changes.
