500_695 Abarth rFactor2 3.2

DECEMBER 09TH, 2014: AVAILABLE VERSION 3.2 - DISMISSED OLDER VERSIONS

WHAT IS NEW in version 3.2:
- added few new coefficients into several physic files (engine, cockpitinfo, susp, hdv)
- added talent file (same names but different performances for each driver - hard fight now!)
- wider range for seat adjustment
- new categorization of the vehicles: main one is now "Fiat Abarth" only and then you find the 3 classes and cars for each class. For dedicated still 3 classes are directly available
- raised a little the NoseCam view- new structure for gear embedded into the HDV files

(thanks to ISR the mod is also available in GETMOD and a live server is already available)

I hope this is and will be the last version of the mod, but I guess next year Abarth Corse will add the "Biposto" into its Trofeo... we'll see.

1. The basic mod 1.0 is a conversion made by Thuro76 from my "500_695 Abarth RFE" mod for rFactor1
2. The component allows the "500 Assetto Corse", the "695 Assetto Corse" and the "695 Evoluzione", that can be driven together or like a single class - You can enjoy smooth differences in driving the different classes
3. A special thank to:
- SRZ - SimRacingZone for support in finding the right person that helped me in releasing the original version
- Nicola Acciarri RFE for physics lessons and advice!
- LcR - RuinedRoadSimracing for new realistic and beautiful liveries
- Alessio Contardi for the Motec 3D
- all guys of the rFactor Community that helped me into finding the right solutions for several issues

======================
NEW IN VERSION 3.0
======================

- slightly smoothed the FFB strength
- changed local cams coefficients for harmonizing the 4 car views
- smooth adjustments for windows that allows "world" reflections but without annoying in driving
- NEW Motec added to the 695 Assetto Corse and 695 Evoluzione
- NEW warning light for HLight (ON/OFF) into the dashboard working also in cockpit view

1. I assembled the "500_695 Abarth RFE" mod for rFactor1 few weeks ago for my personal pleasure in fighting with some friends of mine and I asked for a modder able to convert it to rFactor2: here is a new great component for rFactor2, converted by Thuro76!

2. The component allows the "500 Assetto Corse" and the "695 Evoluzione", that can be driven together or like a single class. You can enjoy smooth differences in driving the different classes.

3. Currently the rFactor2 new physic is limited to the tyres (original TGMs by ISI, that match exactly the real Michelin's compounds of the Abarth). In the future I hope the mod will be enhanced, also with the help of the community, to add the new "chassis", new suspensions, etc... In the meantime I want to thank Nicola Acciarri for setting the physical coefficients of the rFactor1 mod, ported by me with few adjustments to rFactor2.

4. A special thank to SRZ - SimRacingZone.net for support in finding the right person that helped me in releasing this component.

5. Please address any request, suggestion to slowmotion@symracing.net

======================
======================
NEW IN VERSION 1.1
======================

1. UNINSTALL AND DELETE in the ModManager everything related to the previous version like rfcmp, veh, sound and in case any mod (virtualmod for dedicated); move the new rfcmp (veicle) file into Packages folder and install it by ModManager.

2. The component is no longer a multi-component, so all mas files are stored into the same folder

3. the AIs' behavior has been dramatically enhanced and I guess now can bring funny fight to you

4. the FFB (controls section into the hdv files) has now been updated to the rF2 features giving a much better feeling

5. little adjustment to the tvcockpit view to avoid a halo reflection stripe on asphalt
