Did you noticed how when car goes over kerbs with one side, how it pivots left / right unnaturaly, like some longitudinal axle goes through it's center.

In GTL you could override this weird movment by setting the "World movement" option to 100%, but in rF there is no such thing.
This file will remove that weird roll.

I'd not noticed that, but I'm ever willing to try stuff!

Can somebody with rFactor experience read this

And figure an easy way to change the fonts?
Maybe post the files somewhere?

Extract this into your root rF folder.

That font is taken from the "historix ui upadate" , released separetly later last year (or even this one).

I found the mods UI a bit quirky but you can change back to the normal one by going: UIData\HISTORIC GT\UI selector.bat select 'normal'. This doesn't do away with all the nice pictures just the layout of buttons etc.
As for the font, sorry Lov, the font you posted is way too big and didn't display everything. Best way in my opinion is too dump the UIfont.mas from rFactor\UIData to UIData\HISTORIC GT You can now read stuff! :)

Ooops, that was a bad idea, i didn't think of it. I just took that out of UI update, tought it would work. Looks like it didn't. :whistling2:

I changed the whole UI. Worked fine.

...very nice :clap:

and it now appears to ALT+Tab in and out of windows as well. :yahoo:



Note: further testing reveals ALT+Tab works from the main screens before track loading. Once the track is loaded it resumes normal behaviour...still better than nothing though!

That's so weird.  I can ALT+TAB at any time with no problem whatsoever.
