TGMutils library published

Wednesday, June 13th, 2012

With rFactor2 comes a new and complicated tire model. While it supports many new features it's also a lot more complicated than in rFactor1. Together with erale, we had the idea of creating a tool to edit the tire definitions (TGM-files) more easily. We started a prototype, got many new ...

Monday, April 6th, 2009

With the new patch come several updates to the physics which require changes in your setup. I asked Michael to shed some light on how to approach this changes. Well, I'm not sure about what setup changes are required entirely. The default setup seems to work okay, obviously performance is not ...

I have been sending out the league-physics-token in the past 2 weeks. I got more than 35 requests and I got a few things I'd like to ask for: Please don't write more than one mail. I can't check every name and every address if I already send it, if you ...

Identical physics for leagues

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

Ok, speaking with Michael revealed, he actually changed the league physics before the release from near-equal-physics, I talked about it, to complete identical physics. The cars also have the same wheel-base, which results in the cars floating slightly, this is an inconvience, but one you'll have to live with. I'll ...
