Track Dev Update: Announcing Toban Raceway Park

Yes, it's that corner. But in modded versions it looked the same from the outside, but it was very different when driving on it. In the original you reach the corner going downhill and turning to the right, you need to brake after a little jump that unsettles the car, and then you slap the car to the left and let it slide a bit and lean the car in the kerbs. It's difficult to explain writing, but driving and taking that corner OK it's awesome. I hope it's the same in the new version.

 

Surface is using rF2 standards, but built using the same survey as rF1...

Not sure what you mean with "modded versions". AFAIK versions available are just conversions from rF1, so they should be the same as rF1. BTW, doesn't matter, you'll drive the real one.

 

I tried other versions of Toban in other simulators a while ago (I don't even remember where) and they were wider and more flat.

Well, it doesn't matter now. My body is ready is for Toban, and the fact that it's made like an old circuit excites me more. Keep up the good work!

 

I doubt there is any other circuit with similar history...

 

"Couple of extra @rFactor2 TOBAN shots that weren't included in the announcement. So nice to be able to write TOBAN!"




"More unpublished shots from the Toban announcement ... nothing new, work in progress, etc."




"Wind powered "Tobanator" watching over Toban Grand Cru vineyard ..."

 

The painted curbs look especially authentic.

 

+1 Who says we need DX12 when they've got it looking like this

 

Screenshot is screenshot. In game looks nothing like this

 

With DX12 is the performance better.

 

Screenshot IS ingame. If you race the same time, same settings, with clean weather, it will looks the same.

It's a while I see you posting disinfo stuff, please, can you stop it?

 

Sorry, my English is not the best. What means "Toban is coming soonishly soon ... ish."?

 

well its not gonna look like that for me. Because I'm gonna be driving past it fast instead of stopping and looking at the textures

 

+1 . throw a sunset in and it will look sublime.

 

It looks completely like this, because this *is* ingame.

 

Dude... seriously!?

 

This is great news ! I cant wait ! Ahh the memories ....

By any chance will we have the "Toban Reverse" like we had in rf1 ?

Thanks guys !! ;-)

 

lol

I hit "Reply" to that post on 3 separate occasions, started writing a response, and then decided I didn't want to jump on something WS said, again. I'll never understand why people (in general) feel a need to be all or nothing; it's actually pretty easy to be critical of aspects that aren't up to scratch (matter of opinion) without making blatantly incorrect statements about everything else, but it hardly seems to go that way.

Of course there's another side to this; the unedited screenshots thread has shots that I think do surprise people, and while that's probably partly an FPS/hardware issue it's also just that you don't pay that much attention to how things look when you're driving. If I didn't know any better I'd think the Replay mode has better graphics than realtime, because when you have a chance to look around instead of aiming for the next apex or braking marker you go "wow, that looks great!"

 

Yes you are right, "If you race the same time, same settings, with clean weather, it will looks the same."

Toban screenshots are taken with high settings and they look brilliant but I don`t think that there are many who are able to use settings like this when they are racing (Ingame).
My QUOTE was to FatCity "Who says we need DX12 when they've got it looking like this" and I was thinking performance DX9 vs DX12 but unfortunately I did not express my thoughts as I should.

Sorry for the confusion I have caused.

 

Looks really nice.

Can't wait to drive this track in rFactor 2 with my Skippy.
