Thought they came out a coupla months ago...

Quote from Jakg :

The fastest intel single-core chips were old P4's - AMD had them beat back then, and the new Core 2 CPU's (which freaking rock btw) only come in 2 and 4 core versions.

Aren't the new celerons conroes?

Well, the specs of the fz5 are similar to those of a 911.

The problem that we are trying to locate and solve.
I'm making shots of the graphic sets.

EDIT:


AA and AF are 4x and 16x, using driver override...

Ste4l t3h p0w3rc0rd...

tech specs are 911 though.

Quote from Hyperactive :

I got that error too, see pic for details. I managed to fix it by adding a "bmw_m3_body2_spec.dds" file into the mas with the isi tools...

After that tweak the car has some reddish parts around the car but other than that all is fine. Kinda like the underpaint showing through (sp).

As for the car it feels very light! Makes it very easy and forgiving to drive but it feels a bit too fast and agile for a one and half tonne coupe. Might be the dowforce but it is not really that... Haven't never driven a m3 at those speeds so I can't really contribute much though

For a rf car it feels quite predictable and a bit too forgiving but still quite nice.

I got EXCATLY the same error, so it isn't my PC.
Thanks for the tips how to delete the very first version.
I can't tweak the mas, dunno how to do it, could you please post yours?

Quote from BuddhaBing :

I've just uploaded a new version of the M3 mod for rFactor. The new version includes fixes for some issues with the AI, a proper driver model in external view, a revised rFm and the folder structure has been streamlined and cleaned up. It should also resolve the missing texture problem that Fabri91 reported earlier. This new version of the mod also has renamed classes, categories, veh files and folder names to prevent clashes with other conversions of the M3 Challenge content into rFactor.

The new version can be downloaded from:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WUPB5G20
http://rapidshare.com/files/57 ... W_E92_M3_rFactor.zip.html

The zip contains a readme with installation instructions.

If you downloaded the previous version of the mod yesterday, I recommend removing the older version before installing this one. To remove the old version, delete the following from your main rFactor folder:

GameData\Sounds\BMW_E92_M3
GameData\Vehicles\BMW_E92_M3
GameData\rFm (I put this folder in the wrong location when it was first released)
rFm\2008_BMW_E92_M3.rfm (if it exists)
rFm\2008_BMW_E92_M3.tga (if it exists)

If you have any comments or questions or want to provide feedback about the mod, post them here.

Have fun!

Thx very much.
How can i remove the very first version of the car, named "BMW_M3"?

I should be able to provide lateral G, "auto" tested it against the hippo-ish S5.

EDIT: still have that error, only with the M3 E92:


Missing texture and material...couldn't make screenshot of the material missing error because it freezed...

Quote from Mustafur :

There only shells arn't they so really it has no resemblence what so ever to the road versions, the sedan based Nextel cup cars are 2 door anyway so whats going to be the difference..

btw this coming from someone who hasn't watched an Nascar race for over 3 years..

I thought nascars had sealed doors = 0 doors.
And how can the trucks be faster? They should be aerodynamic shit.

IF the bodyshells start resembling actual cars i'd be fine...or put it like DTM, the shape is that of a stock car, they even use headlights...

I'll make screenshots tomorrow of the error message, now i'm not able to.

Looks like it isn't able to load materials...was it wrong to delete the old conversion?
A texture for a material and 2 "global materials" are missing...

It's Z06, zed-zero-six

...(work in progress) Z06...

We love you!

I also tried "Drifting", and tbh racing is far more fun. If you're member of a clan, then, it's fun^2!

The steering steers too much, simply too sensible...changing lock in setup doesn't seem to change that?

For example: i'm a bit too fast, the rear wheels are going to overtake the engine (a bit of oversteer, simply said), i do opposite lock and the front slams to the outside of the corner. It looks like i corrected to much, and the front tires have too much grip while correcting...it's difficult to explain...steering too sensible

MAYBE the brakes should be a tiny bit stronger, but i'm not sure on that.

Oh, there's THAT much choice...lets try:

1. VW Bug
2. 997 Carrera 2 (the 911 is, in a certain way, the latest derivation from the Bug)
3. Ford Mustang GT 1964
4. Ford Escort Cosworth, the last one, with the Whale Tail spoiler
5. BMW M3 E92, love how it looks
6. Range Rover 4.2L Supercharged
7. Ford F-150 5.4L Triton V8
8. Porsche 911 2.0L 1963
9. Porsche 928 GTS
10. Ford crown Victoria MY 2007

The cars are NOT in a particular order. Love them all!

And, yes, i'm a ford and porsche lover!

The car has potential, the model is quite good...it lacks decent physics though...
EDIT: tried Spa, very nice track!

I'm too 15 and do racing...where's the problem?

YAYY!!!
Good job from Kimi & Massa!

Dunno, i haven't driven the real track .
In fact, i haven't driven anything in RL .

Ciao!
I'm downloading the video, let's see...

If real cars crash in each other with the same speed, then teoretically they just stop. I mean they aren't basketballs. Obviously with damage varying from nothing (say 2mph) to total destruction (say 100mph).

Thx again, gonna try that...any suggestions for missing damage?
