Thank you very much for this wonderful mod.
It's a real pleasure now to use the brakes and hand brake (sim ++ grip B) and it really feels like being in a real wrc or wrc 2.

On this subject and in order to improve realism (because for me it is a total failure), can you improve the rotation angle (visually speaking)of the steering wheel in cockpit view so as to follow the angle of rotation of the physical steering wheel?

Thank you again for all the hard work you have done.

AgentHeX 0007,
Do you think it's possible to remove "ridiculous smoke" on the side of the roads?

 

[toweleeie]

heres one
can the game modes be modified so i could say.... do a championship as Kris Meeke
or can the amount of stages per rally be changed to make the rallies longer? ala real WRC format, 2 stages in morning, then repeat loop in afternoon with a super special at the end of days 1 and 2. thats like 14 stages per rally. Kylotonn should have had all this boxed!! ha
keep up the good work mate

AgentHeX 0007,

Yeah that is the very first mod i made for the game. Unfortunately I found that if you remove the coloured smoke particles the ground still has the coloured glow and so does the car. That is why I did not add it into my mod installer as it looked odd on night stages.

The game even does this if you turn off all particles in the game settings so my guess is that the coloured lighting is baked into the stage files.

Smoke particles removed:

I have added it into the mod installer for you

Thanks.

Yes this can probably be done. I dont have time to test but try modding these files

Make backups first then open in a text editor:

Game: \Common\Tuning\Factories\Rallies.cfg
Game: \Common\Tuning\Factories\Teams.cfg

Work in progress:

The rain on the windscreen has always seemed a little strange to me.
Big blobs of "water" way to much refraction going on.
I think they did it to dumb down the difficulty level for consoles maybe?

Default game: Big rain drops, lots of refraction:

More Realistic Rain and Wipers Mod: Rain on the stage

More Realistic Rain and Wipers Mod: Storm on the stage

My shader mod resizes the rain drops and adds 1000's more drops.

Does not seem to have any performance impact.

I have offset the rain drop patterns and timing to make them appear more random.
They are not random, sit and watch them for a while with the wipers off

Thoughts?

Work in progress:

Alterations to the Lens Dirt mod as it does not accomplish what I intended and it removes all of the bloom effects.

The new version now controls the bloom level which also changes the fake lens dirt visibility.
I like a little bloom, especially on this game with sign post reflections at night etc. but I really think the developers went a little over the top with the effect and only provide an on / off in the options.

Default Game Bloom:

Reduced Game Bloom:

The mod will have several options so you will be able to select your own level of bloom.

first thank you for your great works, every things works flawless and we can costumised it like we want, BRAVO.

I want to know what files to modify if I want to displace the HUD, I would like to have the RPM in the bottom center instead at the right, because the game wont let me use my external gauges and shifter lights and thats the biggest let down of the game.

That can be done. Unfortunately the gauges are not one single item, so you will need to move and align each piece of the gauge, one at a time, needle, numbers, shadows, on and on, every part of the gauge is a separate item

Take a look in the UI folder, everything is in there

Do you mean something like GT Sport?

Like this:

I am just doing some final testing of some new mods i have made and then if I get time I will see what I can do.

I am thinking also that if I moved them to the middle then maybe make the dials half the size they are now. Thoughts?

 

[actarusss]

Maybe with the RPM at the same size in the center but the damage half the size will be good enough

iv just got DUMMY.DAT in the tuning folder mate, any ideas?

[AgentHeX 0007]

You will need to use my full texture mod installer to extract all the WRC8 files. Follow the instructions and make a back up first

 

[actarusss]

I've try a little yesterday, I found some parts of the gages but not all the parts, I will retry this weekend I've got the time,
You are a very patient man LOL

Hi AgentHex 0007, Good Physics mod , i have a last version (no previous) but my impression the adjustement of the camera mod in dashboard and wheel wiev mode is the same as the original game.
Could you have a better chance of adjusting it? Many thanks merry christmas

v6.0 had a bug with the extended camera adjustment mod, as reported by other users. v7.x fixed the bug

And a merry christmas to you too

 

[lightburner]

Ah, Many thanks for your efforts! Now i wait for 8.0 version ,(eheh, another christmas gift!!!)
can the next update be overwritten or will a clean installation be required?
