Just remembered that I'm going to be out all day and won't be able to make this...bummer.

BTW, any templates for these babies?

Stuart Thomson · Jun 20, 2011

TBH, I haven't really looked as there are so many default skins.

I'll have a shufty - see what I can find.

Stuart Thomson · Jun 20, 2011

Hmmm...doesn't look like it as fas as I can tell. :frown:

Tim Ling · Jun 20, 2011

Bummer :frown:

I'm going to try and get the virtual mirrors working properly on these things- i think there's some parameters you can tweak in one of the car files to do this. Hopefully it won't end up in a mis-match

Don't think it will as it's in the plr file I belive but I don't think you can increase the definition. Maybe look for a mirror update like the one for GTR2.

Tim Ling · Jun 21, 2011

TBH I found using the hi-rez mirror from GTR2 just gave a weirdly stretched image. The size of the mirror is set in the .plr file:

Rearview Width="128.00000"
Rearview Height="28.00000"

I tried adjusting the rez to 512x112, but while the rez was higher, the image was very very stretched.

Stuart Thomson · Jun 21, 2011

Try opening mirror.mip and resizing to 512*256?

Is there a link to the Mod or is this stock content?

EDIT: Got it from RD download section

Ross McGregor · Jun 22, 2011

Signed myself out- only a maybe for friday due to football. Incidentally, i tried mucking around with a few things on the virtual mirrors and think it's a little better now. Unfortunately i'm not entirely sure what specifically made it better, as i changed lots of things. I'll have another go at it when i've got time.

There's a download link next to the vehicle name in the top post as well.

In

love the track, never driven the cars properly.

Stuart Thomson · Jun 23, 2011

Not much to do, tbh. The default set is really very good (SabreTeam know their open-wheeler stuff, going back to the GPL days), so it's a case of minimal tweakage required.
