Hi!
I have only one layout

Mikey Large-Taylor · Feb 22, 2012

WOW this mod is going to be THE best out there!!!

Marco Bijl · Feb 22, 2012

Jadran,

Do you have only one layuot with the OFFLINE or ONLINE (Saturday event) version?

In the ONLINE version, only GP layout is present. In the OFFLINE there should be 3.

I'm operating off the assumption that rf2 is going to be somewhat like iracing in that whilst they can certainly be deemed as sims, the driving model is at the extreme end of the difficulty scale, so for example, by comparison, Game Stock Cars F1 modern is a piece of cake for me to drive compared to iracing and the rf2 redbull, but rf2 still has more realistic physics than iracing and doesn't come with a potential longterm cost of $500+, so that's why I'm prepared to give rf2 a chance.

The BMW F1 is botched though....I don't know who made it, but was simply curious why it's in the state it's in, and if we compare it to the redbull, it's downright awful.

If I knew how to make mods I would, I'd find the time to build my fav 5 cars, unfortunately, I haven't got a clue.

Have you tryed the Beta BMW or the Redbull i just sent you a link for and i converted the BMWF1 from rF1 it was my 1st car i have ever done but i think you downloaded a test version of the BMW its not that bad

David Ignjatovic · Feb 22, 2012

I dled the newer BMW that had 320kph+ top speed, the first one did about 272kph.
I'll try and install the redbull now and report back.

oky the bmw had lots of versions as it was my 1st car i have ever put in a game

David Ignjatovic · Feb 22, 2012

ah ha, a very worthy car.
That has some serious potential.
Are you not able to transplant the redbull physics into the BMW...?

MS7XWDC · Feb 23, 2012

any way to move this to the edge ?

Jadran Dimic · Feb 23, 2012

I have OFFLINE only one layout,yesterday a try to find RD server but only for Classic Formula 2

EDIT:
I don´t see server (now 02:34)

Marco Bijl · Feb 23, 2012

I made a mistake, and took the server from F2 down to early

Thought it was wednesday evening on tuesday

.
The online server RACEDEPARTMENT MEG is back up again now. That has only 1 layout, the GP.
The offline version should have 3 I believe. Will look into that later today.

That looks awesome!

Are we updating to the Latest Version of this track for the Server?

Just checked on ISI forum, and version 0.2 is the latest version for as far as I can see now.

Which version do you mean? The build 60 release of rFactor2, or is there a new version of Watkins I do not know about?

From the CTPD Development Blog

http://devblog.ctdp.net/2012/02/introducing-ifm-2009/

First of all, let us introduce you to a our latest project a little bit.
IFM – what is it?
The International Formula Master (IFM) was the successor of the F3000 International Masters series. It was held as a supporting series during the European WTCC races from 2007 till 2009. The series was a junior Formula series which was thought as a stepping stone into the GP2 just like the Formula 3 Euro Series. The cars were manufactured by Italian based company Tatuus and were comparable to smaller single seaters like the Formula 3 cars. But they looked more like a small version of a pre-2009 Formula 1 car.
The series was thought to run at least 3 more years, but FIA launched their own junior formula series in 2009 (Formula Two) and many teams and drivers left.
Why are we doing this mod?
With rFactor 2 coming up with lots of new features, we needed a “small” mod to test out all the new things and every aspect especially of the new packaging. The car was made by Stefan ‘erale’ Triefellner back in 2009. The 2008 version was finished pretty quickly, but as the car always was supposed to be a rFactor 2 mod work was stopped eventually. With the upcoming rFactor 2 release it was clear that the mod would be picked up again so he gave it a small touch up and brought the car to its 2009 spec and we started to experiment doing new shaders, materials and testing out all rF2 related features. Within the upcoming weeks we want to show you in a devblog series our progress, maybe a few experiments with new material settings and so on.
What about the release?
Our current plan is to create a few liveries and helmets and release the full grid with placeholder cars together with templates. This way the community can create the missing or even own liveries/helmets and we don’t want to invest more time than needed for IFM and focus on F1 1994 (which is still our main priority for rF2) instead.
Here is a small teaser picture for our blog readers

The worrying thing is that they might rush this mod a bit too much and comes out a bit rubbish, But if the car is as good as it is in race then it should be a popular mod.

rF2 Physics Hard tuned By Hendrie Klink .

Beta Test drivers
Kevin Goldmann.
Kenz247.

Driver = Kubica

today i decided to release the F1 BMW 2008 here and on RFC, you might have had some old beta versions of this car that i put bad physics on. i kept the good physics as they will end up on other mods but they are taking to long now so i must move on to more cars my next car Will be a stock car for the American People.

The RFMOD is not a problem mod and will install as it shuld do i will not be working on this car for a while now so i hope you like it.

Click here to download this mod

I am glad the mod instal and mod manager does not say its going to mess up rfactor because when you instal components to bypass the problem mod you are instal the mod 2 times then it will mess core folder up any mods from now that are problem mod i will stay away as it says this for a reason not because you need to install components.

I think i went abit overboard on the SFX tho its very loud lol
i see someone has put the wip test mod on this site i think you shuld take it down as it was not a release but a beta test and is misleading hear is the full mod finished.
