![]() Or - you can accelerate them much higher or lower depending on the experience you want to have. Say you want to do a 24 minute race, but simulate a full 24 hours with driver changes, etc - no problem! You can run a 50% length race and accelerate the time of day, tire wear, fuel usage, realroad (track surface rubber) and mechanical failures by x2, meaning everything that would happen in a 100% race still happens. The great thing about all those features is that you can adapt them exactly how you want. Theirs looks to be more advanced in some areas such as heat transfer (if their latest trailer is an indication of how things will work), so that's a great way to drive the genre forwards in a way that is better for all. *iRacing are about to implement their version of a dynamic track surface, while we've had one for a few years. You can change weather conditions between wet and dry and see a drying line form where you and others have driven, making the change of tires a decision that can be different each and every race. ![]() You'll have higher grip on those areas and less grip off of them.* You can start a race on a clean track and see it gradually rubber in over the course of a race specifically where you and others have driven. ![]() You can have tires that start out fresh and end up physically flatspotted or worn out depending on how you have mistreated them over the race distance. You can setup a race in rFactor 2 that will have a 24 hour day/night/day cycle where the sun goes down and the stars move across the sky. Tim: Without a doubt the thing that pulls us apart from all of those (for now) is the dynamic nature of the racing experience in rFactor 2. For the benefit of genre dilettantes like myself, what does rFactor 2 offer that rivals like Assetto Corsa, iRacing, and RaceRoom don't? RPS: Choosing a high-fidelity race sim is particularly tricky at the moment. *Flare Path Games still lacks a coder, a budget, and a work ethic. And im pretty sure its impossible based on what I've heard but if theres any way to save a corrupted game please feel free to mention it, it would save me from having to start over and lose a week's worth of progress.There are good reasons why the likes of Canal King, Despatch Rider 1944, and Schwerer Gustav Simulator seldom get mentioned in The Flare Path.* The glaring absence of X-Plane, rFactor and iRacing coverage is harder to explain and justify.This week, in a feeble attempt to make amends for years of negligence, I mark rFactor's 10th birthday by grilling Image Space Incorporated's Tim Wheatley over a very low flame. So if anyone has tried this new one and can confirm it works, or knows any better resources please let me know, im sure lots of people would appreciate it and can save alot of broken hearts from being devastated by the evil demonic overlord known as gamegaurd. I did find the following link which looked promising but I havent tried it yet: (4th post) This was from a few years ago, and I was curious if anyone knew of any better alternatives that have emerged since then. For reference I used to cheats listed in the second post here: (And yes I did follow the instructions they give for the cheats) And unfortunately it seems it still got corrupted anyway. ![]() So I just spent the last few days playing VP2 with cheats, and had found a cheat that supposedly disabled this sadistic Gamegaurd. The game can detect when cheats have been used and it will respond by corrupting your save data, but it only manifests late into the game, making you play the game thinking everything is alright until near the end when you get ambushed by constant crashes. And for those who don't know, VP2 (as well as several other triace games) was made with very sadistic anti-cheating software called Gamegaurd. I think anyone who has played VP2 knows its a huge grindfest, and its very tempting to use cheats in it. So I myself am curious about this, and I feel like there might be some other people who want to know about this as well with the announcement of Valkyrie Elysium, some people might want to try some of the original VP games.
