rFactor 2 Developer Q&A

[Stroker]

Why is the ability to host a race from within the software being taken out?
To ensure a consistently improved online experience.

Does this mean as individuals we can't host races for a few friends to get together and have some fun? If so, that's a major letdown.

Stroker: What`s the problem? Just host the server on the same PC that you run your game.

I apparently misunderstood that part of their Q/A. I thought that meant we would no longer be able to host races at all. Thanks for clearing that up.

is this Lime Rock with new chicanes? in this shot can be the new West Bend.

I'm looking for a new Lime Rock version with new modifies; Uzzi was working on this but..no news from a long time.

 

[Gonzo]

No, this is Mills

 

[Lenniepen]

How do you recognize this as Mills? There is no such chicane on the rF1 version.

 

[Guineapiggy]

Looks like Ascari at Monza to me...

no, that's not Monza for sure! i know really well the track

Mills? mmh i don't remember very well this track, i don't drive on it since a long time. Can be a modified version?

 

[DeDios]

This is the West bend Chicane:

from here (2008 modifies)

 

[Vien1]

I would also say it's from Lime Rock, just watched the 2010 Lime Rock ALMS race

 

[Gonzo]

I thought it was confirmed as mills? Isn't it?

 

[codehound]

Lime Rock, R.I.P. Another track ruined because of wings and compound tires. They spend millions to make the cars faster and then spend more hundreds of millions on the tracks to slow them back down. What stupidity.

It could be Mills:
After the Hairpin and quick chicane you veer left and come to a short right then left onto the long back straight. It could be there with an added section (on the left in the shot) which comes from that quick chicane straight onto the main back straight.
I have seen and read that Mills is getting an overhaul including (I believe) the Pits moving to that back straight.


I await Scott to tell me I'm wrong

Its definitely Mills. Look at the latest tire model video, the green-white and yellow curbs and green-white tirewalls look exactly the same.
Lime Rock curbs are plain white and tirewalls are black.

thanks guys I was hoping it was Lime Rock, that chicane looks really similar to the West Bend.

 

[Vien1]

But could you guys tell me where's the chicane? I have driven there lot of laps and there is no such chicane like in the picture.

as I said above Mills is getting an overhaul so its *probably* been re-modelled off what I was talking about above, hence this chicane is'nt in the original Mills GP circuit.

We'll see when rF2 will be released or..when (IF) Scott or Tim will give us an answer

 

[Spacekid]

Diego,

before we will get an answer to the release date, i hope we see some new screens with everything set on full details.
