REPLACED rFactor 2 Build 300 Released

Yes very weird. Because in every other aspect RF2 is just flawless right?

 

Not sure if covered in 20 pages here but has anyone seen or reported losing ability to press esc key to get back to garage while online? This has happened to me twice and only way to exit the game or regain control is to restart weekend.

 

It is not like in rFactor1? Maybe you need to stop the car first before press esc?

 

Yes you have to be able to stop before ESC

 

It's a setting in the \rFactor2\UserData\player\Multiplayer.ini file on the server
default = Must Be Stopped="1"
set to Must Be Stopped="0" if you want instant ESC

 

How is those documents going Tim?

 

it was released yesterday wasn't it? something new posted in the dev corner of the website anyway

There ya go whoever wrote it did a really good job. Now we just need that level of detail for everything else

 

cheers for that

 

Please, fix the rain/spray @ night bug. Pleeeeeeeeeaaase!

 

for the layman what does chassis flex actually do? Should I see anything different in replays? Does the vehicle mesh twist and flex? I do not really understand the benefit of this new chassis flex? Can someone explain it? Thanks.

 

You don't see chassis flex. It's part of the physics model. Race car engineers design their cars to have as less chassis flex as possible. I think modern race cars have almost no chassis flex.

For karting I believe chassis flex actually helps the kart turn.


Disclaimer. I could very well be wrong here so feel free to correct me.

 

You might notice that changing alignment settings has less effect now. Also I don't think you'll feel any loss of sharpness on consumer hardware.

From Wiki

 

Don't know if it is possible to see, may extrem soft body cars or parts of it with greater indulgence make it visible, depending on the degree of simulation and visuals. But I think it's more about the torsion around the longitudinal axis because it influenced the suspension behavior as well as sway bars effect and therefore the contact surface. I guess this can adversely affect driving dynamics strongly but probably also depends on the accuracy of the entire simulation, in how far it has influence and how good it works.

 

Correct: Go Karts have a solid rear axle, which makes both the inner and outer rear tyre move at the same speed through a corner. The outer wheel however, travels a greater distance, so excually should move quicker. Because that isn't possible (as said), the rear wheels are 'pushing' the kart forward (understeer), or they will spin very easy, causing you to lose speed or have an accident.

If you use the proper technique and/or go fast enough the chassis will flex, lifting the inner rear tyre off the ground. When the inner rear wheel if off the ground, it doesn't matter what speed it is moving at, it won't push your kart forward or spin. So that makes the kart way more stable.

 

Thanks for the info guys

 

Anyone with any suggestion about why "developer" is greyed out in the launcher after a re-install of this build? Not because I use it, I just wonder....

Maybe you need to also reinstall the devmode?

 

How do I reinstall only devmode?
