rFactor 2 Dev Update - New Tire Model

[JSHuiting]

You guys "and gals?" are doing a great job! Will definitly buy this game when it comes out! Are the system requirements known already?

[FunnyVideoCollector]

You can now buy the Beta which lacks a lot of content and no Track Ir support. They say 6 months it will be ready enough for retail.

[Poss3ssion]

11 prefer trackmania with the keyboard

[mayamanign]

When is this due out? Hurry please

[Bomchilaka]

Any chance rfactor will ever come to the console? :D because if it does i think it would be a big hit.

[YottaFlop]

@Bomchilaka I don't know but if i had to guess i'd say no, because one of the major things about RFactor is the modding community, there is always something new to play with, new cars, new tracks, any console wouldn't have that, and i think it would need major programming changes to run in any console, so basically, it would need a whole new version... but i'm not sure

[Danny91252973a]

Will this game be optimized enough to work with 2gb of ram with an intel core i3 processor?

[norbsy]

The commentator sounds like a hat full of arseholes!

[Morgazmz]

lmfao at below comments huh ???? and wtf ??? America Isreal Jamaica flags ahahaha wtf???????? AHAHAHA Annnnnny ways first video where the driver actually can drive better then my dear old gran ma!!

[OhThatGuy9]

Will rFactor 2 be on the Mac?

[ImageSpaceInc]

@OhThatGuy9 No, it is Windows only. But (and we do NOT support this) you may be able to use bootcamp if you have suitable hardware. I've actually been able to run it on my MacBook.

[Scanon66]

@ImageSpaceInc this rfactor2 put now? how much csts rfactor, and 2? is it worth it? what can u tune in this game? thx if you reply ! sorry i know nothing about the game :s

[reallytightpants]

@ImageSpaceInc Hey i have a question kinda stupid unrelative but... Would it be worth buying rfactor 1 when rfactor 2 is so close to release. Ive never known about rfactor and after finding out i am amazed.

[nikos1995patra]

RPM indicator not working ?

[ImageSpaceInc]

@nikos1995patra I don't think it was at this point, no.

[666patrickbateman666]

Sounds like a lawnmower ! - LOL

[xcruzrr6]

@whereisthejustice2 I think he's just generalizing Americans and our favoritism towards Israel. (Our gov't anyway) I have nothing against Israelis but we let them get away with a lot and bend over backwards for them

[MyWorldStick]

the tires color is the same as the track

[tderias]

@whereisthejustice2 wait, you cant just say that... Jamaican people exist, they dont have a flag. Sudanese people exist, they too don't have a flag. I'm quite sure everyone is proud of his country and thinks it deserves to be acknowledged... I can bet if an Israeli made this request you'd be going mad...

[Somai82]

I can't wait. I hope they add a HP stat instead of just KW.

[iMneWtOthiSLOL]

this it what the stig sounds like loool O_o

[Girasole4ever]

i don't see any kind of revolution in that...lfs do that by a long time actualy

[Gazzz87]

this is nothing that live for speed hasn't been doing for 6 years

[TzeffNL]

Why is the tachimeter on its side and not horizontal???

[hejjagedu]

@TzeffNL alot of cars (mostly racing cars) have it that way, since it's easier to see when the needle reaches the redzone, as it's closer to your field of view. So to answer your question; it's so you don't have to look down as much

[luisolf]

The graphics can be improved, we know rfactor simulation is the best, but look at F12010 graphics!

[brunoiwa]

@luisolf

The best simulation to me is GTR2

[MrCOLTSR2]

awesome stuff cant wait!

[Kimisrcn]

stop talking and tell us when this thing is coming out?!!

[mininow]

Where's the tach needle?

[patrickcramer]

Please make the mirror adjustable for this version. I can't drive pushing B anymore. Great stuff coming up though!

[richiespeedisback]

@patrickcramer

Mirrors were always adjustable in rFactor.

[patrickcramer]

@richiespeedisback really? I'm quite new on business...didn't find it yet. But thanks! :P

[richiespeedisback]

@patrickcramer

No probs! :P

Do you know the seat adjust buttons, to move your seat up/down and left/right?

Just hold shift and use those buttons, instead of adjusting your seat, it will adjust your mirrors.

All controls can be found in the main menu settings.

:)

[pierrot148]

PLEASE BRING IT OUT ON PLAYSTATION 3 AND XBOX 360

[bushdelkul]

@pierrot148 go play need for speed with ps3... :)

[bboymassUK]

dates, dates, please for fick sake, date.

[nr2003kid]

When your upside down and you hit the grass, will your car dig in and start to roll, or will it just slide like in RF1?

[streetmachine1984]

Dammit!!! I can't wait release it NOW!! Good video, you guys are making a lot of improvements over rfactor 1. Can't wait to test it out. A demo would be nice. ;)

[MagicAyrtonforever]

at least 9 people can't look after their tyres properly and wear them out prematurely!

[pakkinen]

what about the side of the tyre? different tyres have different side compound and deformation

[maskmanyeah]

did there's just me that playing rfactor with joystick ?

[wootlanter]

@maskmanyeah Sometimes I like playing sims with a microsoft sidewinder joystick. I'm probably as good as I am with the wheel. Also saves me the trouble of getting out and setting up the G25

[vidmanx0]

The warm patch on the tyre thing is very cool. No wonder iRacing had to build a new tyre model.

[YoungGun821]

How Stock Car friendly is RF2 gonna be?

[marcosgt5]

THANKS ISI THANKS GOOD WORKKKKK YEAHHHHHHH XD

[StArCrAfTmELiKeZZzzZ]

gogo flatshifting

[vipersickboy24]

when is it coming out???????....

[Racefreak1976]

Now things are getting real interesting! Take your time, ISI. Make it perfect, please!

[TheHm3]

I WANT IT NOW!! GODDAMMIT WHEN THE FUCK IS THIS COMING OUT?!! RELEASE IT NOOW!! I DEMAND!

[saintluke87]

this, guy, is, incredibly, excited... cant wait tho, looks awesome. Been out of sim racing for a few years now as its gone stale (cept for 1 game) - definitely coming back for this one. Just hope the quality of the mods available are high for the game as well.

[JRod350]

Graphics look terrible. I hope that's just the video and not how it actually looks in game.

[THUNDERBREAKS]

@JRod350 video's purpose was to show the new realistic tyre model, there are no post processing fx in the graphics yet, keep in mind it's still WIP.

[Am0k3o0o]

This information with the Tires will be really good in races...Great work!

[bboymassUK]

when is the release date?

2011

2012

2013

why has the graphics engine not changed? is it too complicated to have real life physics and graphics that match codemasters?

not being funny, just interested in why sims look dated compared to todays racing games?

[SKSdiscipline85]

@bboymassUK

The reason why the vid looks dated is that all the visual effects has not been added in the preview vids. Currently the focus on physics and later on visual things like motion blur will be added. It will surely not look like Dirt3 e.g. but it will (probably) look much better then rF1

What is more important for you: Physics or Graphics? I personally prefer authentic physics!

[xrider55]

Can you please tell me what kind of effects were used in this video? HDR, bloom, new shadows, ambient occlusion, heat distortion??

I love rFactor and can't wait for final release. Thank you so much for the updates!

[mickyhunt]

omg RF2 looks so damn good, i wonder if my old GTS250 will work fine or i will need a new VGA? any idea about the recommended requirements?

[TIMBAAAAAAA]

Looking great! Im more into drifting and just hoping that messing around with setups you will be able to drift properly. Or will there be mods and stuff as in rF1?

[MrWoozy666]

@TIMBAAAAAAA Rfactor 2 will be mod heaven. Trust me. Mods are already being made for the game.

[aemst]

At 2:45 the text says that the "...tires and race track hold a history of what you've done to them..." does this mean the track will "rubber in" over a race weekend?

[richiespeedisback]

@aemst

Yes :)

[KungFuMil]

better than lfs

[Heddy1957]

thanks for the reply. I didn't think of it being a beta version

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Rfactor29 I'm not the best driver but I do have quick hands... Countersteering seems pretty easy now.

[majsterV]

@ImageSpaceInc Yes more like in reality. Countersteering in rF1 is so unreal, atleast in default settings. Not so sliding itself, but the correction that must you made to prevent slide. The physic not give the Feeling when you pass the point , so you lose the control in a blink of second and you not even know. I am not talking when you pushing the car over the limit i am talking about when you want controled slide.

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Rfactor29 You can see a couple of 4wds in this video. But yes, should be possible. I can countersteer effectively and I'm not the best driver.

[Edviuzzz]

0:30 looks weird :/

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Edviuzzz In what way? There was a bit of a drift. :)

[Edviuzzz]

@ImageSpaceInc yeah looked weird, and i wanna ask if there will be drift mode or something? and what gpu do we need? i mean can we run it on older pc

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Edviuzzz Didn't feel weird, but I can see what you mean on the video. See the Q&A for system info. No specific drift mode (whatever that is), but drifting is probably more easily done when you want to.

[Edviuzzz]

@ImageSpaceInc Okay :) and sorry for stupid comments...

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Edviuzzz Nothing is stupid. Everyone has an opinion and even if it's something which doesn't make sense it still tells us what a certain percentage are feeling and seeing.

[David92XR]

2:30 a Marshall moving the yellow flag!

[Heddy1957]

I noticed the the dash gauges do not work. Doesn't that seem important for a sim racing game?

[Uff182]

@Heddy1957 This video is to show the new tire model, not graphics.

[Elratauru]

@Heddy1957 Actually no, Its a simulator. I suppose that we should care about the physics/simulations and not the eyecandy. A gauge will not affect your racing performance.

[Heddy1957]

@Elratauru do you not use a tachometer to help? I do

[ImageSpaceInc]

@Heddy1957 Perhaps one which is finished development. Yes.

[whereisthejustice1]

This is good progress. How is the Force feedback coming along?. I'm sure you guys are aware of the Leo's ffb and real feel plugins. just wandering how the ffb will be generated this time around. Theres no shame in backwards engineering Iracing to get some ideas ;)

[ImageSpaceInc]

@whereisthejustice1 See Q&A linked.

[whereisthejustice1]

@ImageSpaceInc I appreciate that you take the time to interact with your fans and customers. Thanx

[juanpauruguay]

Excellent video!!!

I wonder if they will work in the shadows inside the car.

As in IRacing, GT5 or NFS Shift, the car components that affect the shadows inside.

Not if you understand, thanks

[ImageSpaceInc]

@juanpauruguay Yes. This is an in development video, most effects off.

[XRRoy68210]

rFactor 2 will rock your virtual driving experience!

[nicholasxuu]

can't wait, when? when can I buy it?

[ImageSpaceInc]

@nicholasxuu A date will be announced "soon". I know, terrible answer, right?

[salvuccio861186]

netkar forever

[TheAgainstWind]

thumbs up if you see the animated crew in 0:12

[saatana4]

I'm looking forward to drive some endurance racing at Le Mans

[acconcia12]

when disponible???

[Sanderrr1994]

Why dont the hands move when he is shifting?

[L77kim77l]

Love how the car behaves! - and I really like the (understatement) sound...

[ImageSpaceInc]

@L77kim77l Thanks, but sound is not yet fully developed.

[911GTEvo]

GTElwood^^

[steve2000xxl]

the physics looks almost iracing like if not iracing like

cant wait. great job.

[theangrygimp]

bad typo, meant to say this will be instant BUY, not but, heheh.

[theangrygimp]

This will be an instant but for me on release. Been waiting, and can see you guys haven't been slacking. When I saw the hot patches coming around after the spin out, I had to use my hands to lower my eyebrows  from the astonishment. Looks frick'n fantastic, and I will surely loose a lot of free time to this version of rFactor.

[homilion23]

 I wait this game 2 years!!! Looking good.!!

[mclaren777]

Looking good. I can't wait to give you guys my money. :)

[janjaojfk]

essa porra sai, ou não sai?...¬¬

[addyduss]

u guys need to learn how to render vids)

other than that - great job! cant wait to see all that!

[ImageSpaceInc]

@addyduss Tips appreciated. Please send in message to this YT account. :)

[kn00tcn]

ISI, disable 'frame blend' in the video editor! moving objects are awful to see in these videos

[ImageSpaceInc]

@kn00tcn No such setting in my video render settings.

[kn00tcn]

@ImageSpaceInc is it adobe premiere? right click the video track itself on each video used

[GTElwood]

Hi guys.

Just wondering.. locking wheels will create flat spots on tire tread?

Will affect force feedback?

More or less like in NetkarPro.

Will be a great addition and very realistic.

Cheers.

[Makinen11]

@GTElwood How about watching the video showing JUST THAT at the end?

[blingadude]

@Makinen11 The video just showed heat. It didn't show whether it will create flat spots (probably will) or whether flat spotted tyres will affect FFB.

[GTElwood]

@blingadude Thanks, it's the meaning of my post, you get the point. Someone else not. ;)

[ImageSpaceInc]

@GTElwood Yes and yes.

[GTElwood]

@ImageSpaceInc Cool. ^__^.

Like everyone here, i'm trying to figure out how much you'll push the developement forward. I know well that there are a ton of requests or the 'wishlist' is one mile long

From the graphic side, i've see enough and If SSAO and HDR will becames part of the graphic engine, like i wrote on the forum, will boost the contrast in a dynamic way, so no more baking, vertex color shading, you know.. :D. More space for pure modeling.

[zudthespud]

Wow! really impressed by the heat spots in the spin.

[steve2000xxl]

@zudthespud word

[RedSunCZE]

Cant wait for release!

[SchoolofLuke]

Take your time, just don't take to long. :)

[racingshotsgr]

Great work! Can't wait for release. I hope it will come soon. :)



[chrismodiano]

I wonder what will come out first, iracing's new tire model or this. Unlike flaming guy (ironic name), I can't wait for both!

[ShizoluckyShizostar]

That is pretty impressive.

[saatana4]

half life arms

[xStalkerxx]

nice! keep it going guys :D

[FlamingFnTable]

Fucking Bravo, NR2003 did basically this same shit EIGHT GOD DAMN YEARS AGO. Stop working on pointless bullshit that should have been the first thing included in rF2 and get this game released, holy shit.

[VegetativeHorse]

@FlamingFnTable You confuse me, how will they include things that they haven't done yet if they stop working on them?

[PESglockfan14]

@FlamingFnTable not really idiot!

[ImageSpaceInc]

@FlamingFnTable Your list is inaccurate.
