I have searched for a Silverstone in a more classic layout for rF2. But cannot find this version(pic). Does it exist for rF2.
Thank you very much. Even after you supplied the link and name I was unable to find much info about this track version. And your dwnl link is the only one I have got So thank you again. Loaded the track and although its easy to see its just a converted track its acceptable. There is only a lot of (unrealistic??) bumps every 100m and some strange flimmering lines on the upper car surface. But again its acceptable and at least for the bumps I will experiment a bit with ride heights. Hehe I know silverstone was an old airfield but these large bumps would have destroyed airplanes landing gears if they had tried to use it for landings.
I can't remember if this was the version that someone got permission from ISI to convert "Northamptonshire" track from rFactor 1.
Ah ok... I'm sure with a little polish and watching the *cough* Racing Sim Modding Youtube Channel *cough* he will be fine!
But eventhough the strange bumps has to be way too exaggerated. And I guess its some kind of bug or some kind of anomalies because of the simple rF1 conversion.. Conserning using historic landing runways I guess airplanes would have some problems landing on Hangar Straight - because of the bridge I mean
Straight conversions from rF1 always have massive bumps, which need a lot of work to iron out, because of the low quality mesh. If it's driveable at all it means the converter has already put in a few hours to improve that. Regarding conversions, the general rule in gaming is that you may convert a current game's predecessor's content to the current game without any issue - i.e. rFactor 1 to rFactor 2 is fine. However, converting from rFactor 1 to Assetto Corsa, for example, is not.
Then it looks like my own guessing wasnt that far out - eventhough Im a complete ignorant conserning track conversion.
We should really change the name of this topic to 'Silverstone Historic layout'. The Silverstone Classic is a historic motorsport festival held every year which uses the current layout except for the final corner - Vale/Club. We've actually just made the 'Classic' layout which works nicely with all types of historic cars.

I agree with the original post though, it would be nice to have a historic version. The one I really want is the 91-93 version, with the flat-out Abbey, and the 'square' Brooklands-Priory-Luffield. I think someone did make it for rF1 so the possibility is there.
How about this one? I have been using it instead of the bumpy one. Its great fun because you can go flat out most of the lap except shortly before the start/finish line http://www.internationalsimracing.com/forum/index.php?topic=3747.0 Silverstone GP (1975) v1.4 by Senormen
