    Yes he did, but all of his last posts were one sentence; I have no information really.
    So I asked him some about two hours ago.

    I mean; who's in control, who makes decisions, to who do I go with questions on how it should be?
    All that kind of stuff.

    If you have it in game, you could send it over to me and I can quickly attach my physics; then we can talk about it.
    I made the physics based on the (back than) 5-speed, but do we want all? (I think so, so I need to make more)
    Sounds.....where?
    Does it run like you would imagine?
    Another point that get people upset; it doesn't run idle........
    It makes no sense to have an engine that deliver power from the get-go, having run 5000 rpm (like some mod from the past, I think rF1)
    Yes, the car makes noise standing on the grid, but those are blowers to keep everything cool.

    That kind of stuff; we need to talk about.

    My thoughts exactly, anyway just gonna try and sort out the ambientshadow then I'll pass it over - I can still make improvements (a driver would be good :D) but it won't affect what you do.
    Sounds - Using default, ok for effects but obviously engine is wrong.
    Physics - Suspension is basic RF1 pm using measurements taken from the model itself - lot's of improvement could made here but it's not hard to drive (as long as you don't soften the front), just doesn't feel that great.
    Engine-RF1 type 270hp (bit prone to overheating lol but ok for testing) to be replaced anyway.
    Gears-5spd, does the job - probably the only thing I would leave as it is.
    Heres a pic anyway so far:

    Looks nice!

    What do you mean by "default"? As far as I know, this should be scratch, right?
    You confuse me by that default and the "basic rF1 pm" ;)
    Is that from the "old" FE mod for rF1?
    Doesn't really matter anyway though; it all gets new :)

    Default sounds are a set that come with rf2 - they use a .sfx file called default.sfx.
    By basic rf1 .pm I meant it's not a new flex chassis like RF2 uses - it's just a .pm file like rFactor uses - think it started off as the Eve F2 (ms7) one but as all the a-arms etc are modeled it was easy to get the positions from 3DSimEd and match them up.

    Is this project dead?

    Amazed that no one has done a decent FormulaE mod yet. It would seem to me to be a match made in heaven with ForumlaE and sim racing.
    I would bet it would be a very popular mod to race in leagues also.
    But I guess that would also require the circuits to be made.

    Well, I find this whole topic very confusing since I can't remember what happened back than and with who.
    I do know I was fed up with it.
    I also know that my "modding days" as in "trying to get something done for the community" is way over. Always bumped my head.
    Plus; I can't commit to it anymore.
    My physics were never appreciated and so I won't share them either.

    So, no; I'm not in for this.
