rFactor 2

Yes indeed Steve I forgot to mention the mods needed to be installed. Donc Marcus quand tu as mis les mods dans le bon dossier, il faut clicker "manage mods" dans le rf launcher et ensuite click droit sur le mod dans la page qui s'ouvre et tu cliques sur "install" et ça t'installe le mod tout seul

150mph drift with 68 F1

Well that's just regular GPL stuff

nice style Steve

I started with driving the Meganes at Mills a bit. Felt good but the expected wow-factor was not really there.

Then I went for the classic F3-cars. Drove them at Spa, Monaco and Mills... There is an immersion-factor I have never had before in a sim. The tracks look magnificent. Once the steering wheel well installed, the feeling is great. The car behaves well. It's really a pleasure to drive and I have a hard time staying a way from the PC.

The rain-effect is not yet very well done IMO. I personally feel it's better in GTR2. E.g. there is no or barely no spray of other cars. Grip doesn't really change a lot etc.

As to performance of the PC. I drove an offline race at Spa with 9 AI and everything maxed out. Same at Mills with the Meganes. At the start, with full field fps dropped to 25, but everything remained very playable. Once on the way, FPS went rapidly up to 50-60. It's doable but once the heavier mods arrive, it will become hard. So an upgrade will probably be in order.

All and all, it's still far from perfect but it is, IMHO, a very solid basis for probably one of the best sim-experiences ever.

It's still a beta. Wait for the final game before planning any upgrade.

Merci Frank et Steve,

J'ai installé, mais le problème que j'ai, c'est lorsque je suis rfactor2 , par exemple je choisi Mod, cela ca va,puis après je ne peux plus continuer,car je ne trouve pas où je dois appuyer sur le clavier ou sur la souris sur l'écran, pour continuer ou pour sortir du jeu ?????
Je pousse sur enter,Esc, rien ne ce passe???
Je suis obligé de couper l'ordinateur et recommencer,sans succès !
Il y a quelque chose qui m'échappe !!!

with windows 7 click start button bottom left/select your name in menu then open APPDATA Folder/Then ROAMING Folder/Then RFACTOR Folder/Open rFactor.name file with notepad/change name to yourself/close and save.
Go to to your rFactor2 install/ userdata/ rename player folder to your name/ and the player.plr inside player folder to your name/open .plr file with notepad and change this to your name as well [ DRIVER ]
Player Name=

could not find way to create player ingame lol

you may have to have show hidden folders option which is in control panel/folder options/view tab

I think it was during the purchase, there was a box nickname, first name and last name.
I typed "Ben Paulet" in the nickname box, and I have my name in rf2.

Thx Steve

I'm gonna try

back up original first vincent also forgot to say when you have changed name in appdata/roaming/rFactor .rFactor.name and saved it,right click on the file and properties,change it to read only

also ISI said you need it to be back to original for updates etc

As Ben, I tipped Martin Audran as first and last name when I bought the game, and I found my player named like that

Je n'aarive toujours pas !
Je ne parvient pas a avoir la barre du bas sur la troisième images, et je ne sais pas aller plus loin !
Soit c'est mon ordinateur qui n'est pas assez puissant, soit je dois refaire une install....;!
Qu'en pensez vous ?

Marcus

Change la résolution peut être ?

Moi, j'ai fait 2 installs. La 1ere n'a pas voulu marcher. J'ai lu sur leur forum qu'il fallait tout desinstaller donc j'ai desinstallé.
A la 2eme install, ça a marché sauf que je m’appelle "unknown" tout court, même pas Vincent Unknown

J'ai essayé de modifier les qqs fichiers indiqués par Steve mais je n'ai pas le fichier "Rfactor.name".

C'est ce qu'on appelle une version béta ...

Voila, cela fonctionne,c'était bien la résolution,j'ai été plus modeste !
Il me restera a mettre un nom de pilote,mais c'est pour demain.

Merci à tous pour votre aide.
Cela a l'air pas mal, je vais relire vos impressions

Encore merci

Marcus

PS: a cause de rfactor2,j'ai pas pu m'entrainer pour le Nurburgring avec ma Porsche 2,4 l.....!!

Apparemment, il suffisait de mettre mon nom dans le fichier "player.plr". Ca marche

A good thing for us admins is that the game now enforces the use of your real name online.

Has anyone noticed 'Pete Aron' as an AI?

You mean we can put the option on the server ? Coz by default you can race online with a nickname, I saw many on rf2 public servers.

Dunno, in fact i saw a post on the ISI forum with guys complaining they can't use nicknames ^^

Ah so maybe some tweaked it by entering a nickname in the first name and surname fields ? One was called "Bu Bu Bu Bu" lol :s
