![]() Looks matters and those mods in rFactor 2 was very far from graphics of both the Mazda cars and the Gulf Porsche. They are far better in the GPL Mods I must say. But when I checked my GPL favorites the Loand the Matra MS80 1969 in rFactor YouTube clips recently I must say the visual impression of those was a disappointment. Two things made me curious on rFactor 2, the Mazda MX5 option (as it would be very nice to drive your actual IRL car in races) and some YouTube clips I saw with the 'Gulf' Porsche 917 on Le Mans (really like that car). In general terms I think the "semi-abandonware" condition is essential for GPL drivers and community. In terms of physics I liked the most iRacing and the beta versions of NetKar, but the first is essentially a business and the second was abandoned for AC.Īlso, I may imagine some GPLers driving other sims, but just cannot mind the whole GPL community migrating to a modern SIM and that would be worst if the SIM has a "boss" winning money with simracing. Many times I though the time of GPL will eventually end and all we should move to a new "modern" sim and thought about which it sim it should be. The objective thing is that no modern SIM have historic complete seasons with all their cars and tracks with own physics in the detail we have in GPL. I tried most "modern" sims and none of them made me feel the same in terms of physics and immersion, but that's a bit subjective. Hello, are you thinking in a substitute for GPL? Just putting out this to get some hints from you around my thought here. I stop there as I have a lot of questions before I decide to change the setup of my SIM computer. Or is it that I can save specific selections as 'seasons' perhaps? I checked out some of the rFactor interface and as I understand it it's more of select a car, select a track and then go? I guess you're not able, as in GPL from GEM, connect a specific car to a specific season and then automatically race agains AI's with 'correct' cars. It can be a bit messy with all MOD specific settings, but it works. I handle everything in GPL from GEM and just use the seasons mentioned. I guess rFactor 2 when it comes to MOD's can supply me with most of those tracks as well? I'm not sure if MOD's (as GPL MOD's) include historical season cars to my AI-opponents or if I have to download every other car (not the ones I drive) seperatly? Just try to prepare for what I'm up to. Mostly I train and do AI-races on the historical tracks of 67-69. That would be something and a real teaser to me anyhow. And in addition it seems to serve me with the possibilty to race my own car, a Mazda MX5 07, in the game. the Lotus 49 of 67, the Matra MS80 of 69. Next I found that rFactor offers me (even if I'm not sure of how to equip the game with what I'm after) my fav cars as kind of 'MODs'. Even if GPL is very good I guess rFactor 2 is at least as good as that. I've been quite happy with this setup but now I consider if rFactor 2 might be a 'fresh re-start' to me? Perhaps someone more experienced can give me some hints here around my rFactor 2 newbie quests?Īs far as I can see rFactor 2 (even if it's not the latest SIM) is considered to be the most realistic SIM when it comes to driving. ![]() As well as I loved all wonderful MOD's related to my favorite seasons (F1 67 and 69 and GT67). As I understand it GPL's racing engine still i considered a really good one and I loved the 'realistic' feeling in driving it. Purchased original back in the 90'ties and as I later found out all exceptional MODs I dedicated a computer with a wheel just to run this my one and only SIM (and game). Honestly I'm not much of a Gamer and the only Racing SIM I've ever used is GPL.
