LMT & T2L DTM 2008-2010

Welcome to the DTM 2008-2010 v1.02 by LMT, True2Life-Racing.com & Günthar Rowe modding!!

This is the Race Series edition of the great LMT rF DTM mod and uses the same car models and textures as from this mod.

Features added to the GTR Evo release:
- Custom Skin support using the "CustomSkins" folder .ini system
- Animated wipers

Known issues (SimBin Fix Required):
- Non-adjustable Final Rear Diff Ratio. The DTM Series use fixed gearbox ratios with 4 final diff ratios to choose from. GTR Evo doesn't support this being adjustable. This can be edited directly from the .svm setup files or using MoTeC-Add tool.

[Kai Tavson]

[Hammer57]

Another Home Run!
Thanks, Gunthar

It's good in trainings sessions but when I want to race I have only 35 fps and it's unplayable.
Tried a clean Steam instal with no mods and no addon tracks.
Normal I have between 100-200 fps.

[Günthar Rowe]

anyone else getting this issue?

 

[Gaëtan Legastelois]

Great news.

Thank a lot, Günthar.
(I just saw it, not tested yet).

 

[Nick Deeley]

Great to see the updated DTM's.

No issues with the framerate here as far as I can tell at the moment.

I solved the problem, it was the Nvidia driver.
I went from 266.35 back to 265.90 and now everything is fine.

 

[Vincenzo Ganci]

Great mod! Thanks Günthar.
I love DTM.

 

[Lazlo Acera]

Awesome mod, great job and thanks!!!

Quick question about the sounds.. I also have the 07 DTM mod and deleted the sounds/DTM as instructed but find I prefer the 07 sounds, so I put them back and it seems to work fine.. am I deluded that the 07 sounds appear better to my ears, are they the same and it's only subliminal to think the older sounds are better.. does that even make sense (?)

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

I've tested both mods, and the sounds are exactly the same - the only difference is that the in-cockpit 08 sounds top out a bit higher.

 

[Günthar Rowe]

same sounds for both mods

 

[Juergen]

Hello,

yes, really awesome mod, many thanks!!!

Just a short question, when i`m using the hi-res files, the mirrors (inside the car) are present (online), when i`m using the low-res files, the mirrors (inside the car) are not present (online). Is this a bug or is the bug sitting down 60 cm right in front of my monitor? ;-)

And second... sometimes when i join a track with my car, the the tool key (inside the game) is red like something is to repair....but the car is just going on the track from the garage...

Kindest regards

jhe

 

[Günthar Rowe]

with the tools being red, this is a bug that effects most mod cars. I use MoTeC-Add and it states 100% health even tho I get the red tools sometimes... just odd....

I use the standard-res skins so as to run what most users will be running and have mirrors working at all times.... Anyone else having mirrors issues?

 

[Jonas Orfelt]

Hey Gunthar, love this mod, perfect, can you do skins for this cars

 

[Günthar Rowe]

Jonas, yes, it supports custom skins like SimBin cars. Here is the breakdown for the .ini file:

[Audi A4 DTM R13 2008]
body=

plate=
driver=
ext_driver=
helmet=

[Audi A4 DTM R13 2009]
body=
windows=

But, no official templates have been released by LMT for their rF mod so I have none either...

 

[narizator]

thanks

 

[Günthar Rowe]

Patch on it's way ...

 

[Bucks]

I have no mirrors when driving in a custom championship.
In practice and race event the mirrors work fine.
Any solution for this ?
