rFactor + GTL

[Doorman]

I wonder what the effect of sorting out class folders with those cars in would be. If it worked, when we get the question 'which car are you using?' we could answer 'anything from TC whatever'
Off to have a fiddle.

[lovretta]

What do you mean by class folders?

I would first try if there is an "easy, no fiddle" method of doing it. If such thing exists in rfactor :haha:

I don't remeber now how it looks, but is it possible to add individual cars to dedicated server? You know, that "second" screen you see after you fire up dedicated server. First is small popup, on which you select "player" file and "racing series". After that you are choosing something from the left list...

Modifiying all cars files and rfm file (rfm is the one in which all the cars and classes are listed), modifiying those would be sort of over-fiddle :frusty:

[Doorman]

Forget that! It's a minefield! :blink: Maybe we can post a list of cars to be used, once a week. I do like the way they've sorted them out though. Thoughts chaps?

Me too Ron. TC1 or whatever should be enough. People need to have the lists, thats all.

The admins only decide the class. TC1, TC2 or GTC (slow or fast) .
Most people should be able to find a car they like in every class.

[lovretta]

I've sorted their lists, first priority being laptime (on Mid-Ohio Chicane), second was topspeed.
Also renamed GTC-Fast and GTC-Slow class to GTC-1 and GTC-2.

Most cars from TC-1 and TC-2 can be found under FIA-TC-65 and FIA-GTC-65 classes. Beware in case of Abarth, it is the one found under one-make cup - Abarth Coppa Mille. It's perfomance is much greater then that of the Abarth TC-1000 found in FIA historic classes.


Class TC-1

• Jaguar E-Type Coupe 1:43.0 (138 mph)
  
• Lotus Elan 26R 1:43.0 (129 mph)
  
• Austin Healey 3000 1:43.5 (132 mph)
  
• Porsche 911 S 1:43.7 (132 mph)
  
• '65 Corvette Stingray1:43.9 (145 mph)
  
• Ferrari 275 GTB 1:44.0 (140 mph)
  
• Ford Mustang1:44.0 (135 mph)
  

Class TC-2

• Renault Alpine A110 1:47.0 (131 mph)
  
• Mini Cooper 1310 1:47.0 (119 mph)
  
• Ford Lotus Cortina 1:47.25 (117 mph)
  
• Alfa Romeo GTA 1:47.3 (117 mph)
  
• Ford Falcon 1:47.60 (131 mph)
  
• Coppa Mille Abarth 1:47.6 (119 mph)
  
• Jaguar Mark II 1:48.0 (128 mph)
  
• Lotus Elite 1:48.6 (116 mph)
  

As for the '76 cars, "#efnet cars league" named them "GTC Slow" and "GTC Fast". I would rather call them GTC-1 and GTC-2. These cars are found under various classes in rFactor. Shelby Cobra is under GTC-65 class i think!

GTC-1

• BMW CSL Schnitzer 1:34.7 (149 mph)
  
• DeTomaso Pantera (Factory) 1:35.4 (152 mph)
  
• Ford Capri 3100 1:35.4 (152 mph)
  
• '69 Corvette 427 1:36.0 (153 mph)
  
• Porsche 911 RSR 3.0 1:36.5 (140 mph)
  
• Ford Escort RS 1:36.7 (145 mph)
  

GTC-2

• Shelby Cobra 427 1:37.2 (158 mph)
  
• DeTomaso Pantera (Privateer) 1:37.2 (146 mph)
  
• Porsche 911 2.8 RSR 1:37.3 (139 mph)
  
• BMW CSL Alpina 1:37.4 (139 mph)
  
• '74 Corvette LeMans 1:37.6 (150 mph)
  
• Ferrari Daytona 1:37.8 (146 mph)
  
• '69 Corvette 350 1:37.8 (146 mph)
  
• Porsche 906 1:37.8 (142 mph)
  
• Ford Capri 2600 1:38.3 (138 mph)

You're taking it all too seriously. Just let people drive the car they find most FUN :sideways:

Sarky git!

Good job, saved me one! I'm going to print that out and keep it by the PC for ready reference :thumbsup2:

That was my first tought, i did the same for the LFS tracks.
So everyone who doesn't have it yet, get yourself some printer, it's one more requrement for rFactor :devil:

[lovretta]

Sounds of this mod are all scratch-made for every single car. It is huge work and intensive work. But i find not like all of them, because most are hugely toomuch distorted. Some like it very much, some tend not to like it so much.

Good example is Escort sound, too much overdriven.

From here you can download original GTL-sounds adopted to HistoriX mod; it overwrites nothing, and you can revert to defaults if you want, altough not that easy method (you would need to rename sound file of every car).

Thanks I think I'll do that. (to save my ears)

[Doorman]

I have no quarrel with the sounds so I'll leave then as they are. I did spend a happy hour sorting those lists into folders, deleting the original folders once the were empty. So in the vehicles folder were TC-1, 2, etc. Then fired up the server...:g: Didn't like it. Reverted to original double quick! :lmfao:
In order to restrict the choice, I have to nominate the cars that are allowed. We'll do that in the future.

[Toddshooter]

As usual on dMR I had a great time this weekend:) Sorry for being a bit of a noob and driving off every other corner:rolleyes:

 I'll bring my patience and brain next weekend:D

I also like the idea of restricting the cars a bit. There were a couple of guys that kept taking a car that was way faster than everyone elses. (I think they were on my team actually)
 Anyway another dMR hit I say. WAY TO GO!!

I just tried the link, noticed the file was removed from rapidshare, reason - no download for long time.
Found it here

Don't remove the Pantera :flirty:

Don't remove the Pantera :flirty:

Even if the rest of us are in Minis? :flirty::flirty:
