Discuss rFactor2

Thing is, it doesn't mean much. R3E is also endorsed by real life race drivers, especially the DTM guys, and, it's surely not the pinnacle of realistic physics. And real life drivers are also used to simulators, which weren't at all up to par to what we have nowadays in physics. They probably got better now too, but, still...

AFAIC, iRacing likes to advertise with real drivers driving it. They have endorsements on their website, and they have videos showing the real life drivers. I've read from enough real life drivers that they don't consider the iRacing physics top notch, though. So, you gotta take it for what it is. It is difficult to judge anyway. Coming from a real life racing background, you'll probably find yourself sensing a sever lack of grip in most sims anyway, because you'll have to get used to the lack of forces, and that your steering wheel is the only connection to what your whole body feels in a race car, or in a street car. If i haven't driven a sim for weeks, i need at least 2 or 3 hours to fully adapt to that again. I don't "feel" the car much before that.

 

i think rfactor fans will like this.

 

The rain is looking quite nice in rF2.

 

id does, i like the tire lines it leaves behind like in f1 2017.

 

Looks great, seems like I won't have to buy PC2 any more

my guess for the next car sneak peak they posted.

 

Pretty sure it's the Callaway Corvette C7 GT3-R

The dynamic weather system in PC2 is quite impressive and having that in rF2 would be doubly amazing. From playing PC2 in VR, it demonstrates some significant new challenges to Sim-racing, both in terms of development and in play.

PC2 greatest value to many of us may be in spurring new developments in Simulation going forward. I suspect it may have more impact on the overall experience than many realize.

 

Yeah it's the callaway. Been confirmed on the discord channel. So that leaves 2 cars.

 

I fully agree with you, unfortunately with my limited game time PC2 would collect virtual dust in my steam library the same way rF2 does right now (not because I don't like rF2, but it's much easier for me to just jump in AC, when I have a short time to play). With it's current price tag and included bugs I prefer not to waste any SSD space either, I'm pretty sure the time will come when all the stars get aligned for me to buy it

 

Why can't they have a dry tarmac shader that matches this quality?

 

Any idea why Alt+Tabbing doesn´t work? I can see the Alt+Tab-menu but rFactor2.exe is always on top. Using VR.

 

Are you using "Windowed Mode", that seems to work IIRC.

 

I always use Windowed Mode because SC4 requires it to have quick access to settings.

 

Tried fullscreen, windowed and bordeless but none of them worked.

 

There are issues with fullscreen right now in RF2. I got it working by using other resolution in game than in desktop. The "workaround" for me was to create a custom resolution with different refresh (can be even very small difference if screen can't go high e.g. 60 vs 61hz). However if your screen few native refresh rate options for the resolution you want to use then it's even better.
This also fixed microstuttering for me (and some other guys in RF2 forum).

 

Can't wait for the updates for rF2, launching it frequently, enjoying a lot. Mostly picking dry to wet, or wet to dry races thats best for me. I have been thinking that maybe wet tarmac has a bit too much longitudinal grip in rF2, in straight line there is next to none problem to put the power down with a car like T70. Rain should hinder it a lot.

 

anyone here knows the full list of car mods that were updated to dx11?

 

Is dx11 out of beta yet?
