F1RFT 2008 mod

**drapin** · 06-03-2008, 00:57

The first F1 2008 season...even before the real-life season started.

(click for full resolution)

If I understand it well, all teams use one physics. As the performance of the 2008 cars are not yet known, it kind of make sense. Also the mod is primarily intended for online use, so all cars equal again do make sense.

The first impressions I can read on some forums are not the best TBH, but it's supposed to be a first basic release that is bound to evolve further...

(I just hope everything is OK here, nothing "borrowed" or similar, so I won't be forced to remove links again !

edit: links removed as the mod uses some elements of another mod without permission

Drapin did you get any of the F1 mod teams to check the mod before listing it? AFAIK there were issues with earlier F1RFT mods... ok for league environment maybe, but public, not sure.

Neidryder · 06-03-2008, 07:24

I heard that there is a lot of MMG/Fsone stuff in it, but i don't know for sure, you should ask Yanden/Phil for more details!

**drapin** · 06-03-2008, 09:45

I checked (I hope thoroughly enough) the F1 Modding Community Center forums, where all the MMG and FSONE authors meet, or at least participate, and I didn't find any problems of such kind reported there...

Previously, when the F1RFT 2007 mod was released, I also asked Emac about it, they don't consider F1RFT is using any of their (RH's) stuff.

Well, that leave CTDP or some GP4 modding team as potential sources. If anything is used from them without permission , I'm sure we'll hear it soon enough.

mombassa · 06-03-2008, 10:02

I think the people to check with are the current FSONE guys - Codex and Kikoni

Trebor901 · 06-03-2008, 13:03

Man this mod is bad in terms of performance, i can run rFactor with everything on high with 22 cars on the MMG mod and with this i try to do the same and it does about 2 fps

bosanac1 · 06-03-2008, 18:15

this mod is not scratch built however nobody knows where the initial models come from.....if you look inside the cockpit you can see that the FIA sticker is blurred out and also explains why this mod is so poorly optimized to run since mmg and ctdp can be run full grid and with this you cant run more then 12 cars you get poor fps....

Montoya · 07-03-2008, 00:04

I?ve written a little review on this rather controversial mod. Those of you who have not tried it might find it interesting

Frank-br · 07-03-2008, 02:57

I like this mod a lot. The Ferrari cockpit is amazing and the drivers arms add so much for the imersion. Performance is fine here. (HD3870).

-Danny- · 07-03-2008, 05:46

People need to realize there is more to modding than making some models and giving a mod a name.Thats the easy part. These physics seem to be hacked up FSONE physics with reduced tyre grip but they didnt compensate by adding more aero grip which means even on the highest wing levels you cant attack high speed corners realistically and have to back off a lot. Quite a few mods coming out lately with afterthought physics.

Waste of time with these physics im afraid.

This mod uses pieces illegal of fsone 2006 without permission, I am the author of fsone and nobody has asked me for permission to use these items or any of the members of fsone team

Nice to hear it...a whole week after the release ! But whatever...links removed.

CoDeXiTo · 12-03-2008, 14:29

Not aware of the existence of this mod until recently

No problems, but FWIW, I got all the informations about this mod from the forum of what is supposed to be the home site of FSONE (http://www.f1mods.com/) ! (or isn't it ?

)

The release announcement is still there, with relevant links. You may wish to sort the situation there too.

CoDeXiTo · 12-03-2008, 21:02

This is no longer the official website of the fsone long you leave it, sign 1 or 2 times in the forum fsone to put any picture, but not the other I look after, it is strange that phil has not erased, the oficial site now is http://www.speedfeverclub.com/

Hammer666 · 17-03-2008, 01:09

All the stuff from GP4 ripped by rFactor modders was stolen, not one permission asked or given .

But Hey !@!
Oh thats right sorry I forgot ........GP4 ( or its fantastic modders ) dont matter does it

rFactor modders make their own rules like how long a mod should sit around before they steal it .........who do you lot think you are make rules up as you go Huh .

Yes ......... ITS STEALING

The Nemesis · 17-03-2008, 03:39

When a little group of asses steal the work of others to make a mod for rfactor, that doesn't mean all rfactor-users are like them. I'm in a modproject for rfactor. Does that make me one of those people that use GP4 stuff? Does PCC07 use things from other mods/games/art?

Hammer, you have said a lot of hard words in the years I see you around the simracing community, but you don't really impress much people. Isn't it getting boring?

How to remove hands in cocpit....hands are terrible...

Montoya · 23-03-2008, 18:13

You can remove them in the car-upgrade options.

taoistlumberjak · 23-03-2008, 18:58

I, personally, love having hands. As a matter of fact, without hands I wouldn't be able to type this ridiculous comment.

But yes, when you're going around a corner and your arm swings through your head, impairing your vision, that tends to be slightly annoying.
