rFactor 2 General / Re: rF2 - Install on SSD or HDD?
« on: May 12, 2017, 09:44:22 pm »
Ive seem quite a lot of people testing this, nobody observed any percievable difference, it seems that the main difference in loading is actually CPU, because majority of the loading screen is initiating shaders, compiling physics code and **** like that.
yup, the game builds a cache and renders the whole thing at once.
you see noticeable differences in loading times when games rely heavily on decompressing chunks and texture streaming.
worst culprit could be the battlefield series, and open world games like the witcher 3.
i tested BOTH and there was nothing much to gain that justified losing 50gb on my ssd.

i tried both, didnt see much difference, but it was an old build i dont know how it will work in dx11.
as far as mods you wont have any issues. mod packages are in the rfactor root folder and it loads everything from there, so as long as everything is in the "rfactor2" folder you wont have ANY issue


if you want to install steam games in other folders just create a new steam folder in other hard drive.
in steam: view>settings>steam library folders>add library or something like that.
my 2 cents :p
cheers

MY WHEEL IS DEAD TOM ! good luck in the weekend.

I actually have a DFGT I'd be willing to give you. Not sure how much shipping would cost though.
i have no idea either D:

Uhhh... I checked and it was like at least 3X what the wheel is worth. Sorry man.
yeah thats what i thought...i wont get payed until 2 to 3 weeks so there is that.
thanks for the thought anyways, much appreciated.

Sorry to hear about your wheel Ignacio. How did it die?
ffb motor started fuming, still wants to "work" but it seems to be shattered and unable to rotate properly. it was grindy not long ago but i didnt expect the sudden death :/ i was about to put some laps in the newer road america too! its one of my favourite tracks

VRC rf2 fun runs / Re: Fun Run - GTO's at Tiger Moth
« on: March 23, 2017, 05:02:16 pm »
Y'alright boys I thought I was being very diplomatic actually with my previous post because I was pretty pissed off about being taken out of the 3rd race in a row, I didn't really want to mouth off about it so I just kept it short and sweet. But Mem did say last night it come off as sounding pretty blunt which I suppose it does despite my best efforts for it not to.

So I just wanted to make clear I have enjoyed racing with you all over last 2 seasons, I think your all a good bunch of racers at heart and I have had some good moments, VRC is very well run league with the right spirit, to be honest I would like to continue racing with you boys if it was not for 2 things, one is the URD mod which I just can't enjoy no matter how much I try.  The other reason is something else, probably it all leads back to the aids, not because of the disadvantage it may bring me in terms of car and tyre performance - actually more because of the mentality them aids instill in people in the sense that it encourages and rewards ever more aggression and risk taking - if you can drive the wheels of it from start to finish why not? But im running no aids, I chose to join league running aids so I can't complain too much but I got a bit tired of too many unneccessary accidents caused in my view largely by aids induced hot headedness.

I was gonna see out these fun races before you went to the URD but you know I had enough at Nola that was god damn stupid what happened there, then taken out of Sebring and Tigermoth I just had enough now, I'm not interested to spend time making setup and practising a bit just to get taken out all the time. It can happen some of the time, it can't happen all the time. I think what aids to is put people on steroids. It lets them them race harder and more agressively than ever before, risks you might not talk on no aids you would take on aids, and I feel that leads to a pretty unholy cocktail that I don't like.

So I don't think your a bunch of ****, or the league is a bad league, totally the reverse on both counts I want to be clear about that. In fact this rebirth of VRC has been a huge success, a good bunch of guys who know how to race is ideal for me, but I don't run aids and I found these things ultimately to be incompatable in steroids boosted race environment. Too many risks on top of the risks that already do and always will exist just make it unworkable I feel.

I had a lot of good times as well and I am glad of that. Sorry if my last post sounded a bit blunt, I am glad I joined VRC and if I liked to run aids I would continue, but i'll never run aids nor the URD so I'm sorry to say I'm out. I'm grateful to all runing the league your doing a great thing, in fact if it was not for the aids I would say this is the best league I have been in for a long time and it has a lot of potential still yet.

Thanks for the good times, hope the new season in the URD goes great for you all :)
dont blame aids for your lack of racecraft, yes accidents happen, but if you're involved in a lot of them then you might want to reconsider your own actions too. i think the whole aids/no aids argument is a cheap excuse, mostly, dont run without aids and expect to perform and everyone behind you brake 50 meters earlier because you cant. i can get away without aids for the most part but i choose to use them to save tyres and avoid unfortunate flatspots.

you know, if you think everyone is an **** (driver) then it might be the case that you're the one in the first place.

VRC rf2 fun runs / Re: Fun Run - GTO's at Tiger Moth

I felt pretty happy about my pace. I used higher downforce in the race and it was paying off until I crashed. I was being cautious there but was one of those moments where I felt invincible. I was hungry for cake :p

MF, it was Steve and you who crashed. I was like "oooh shiiit". I guess you had a bad start by purpose? I like this car but the track was pretty bomb. Reminded me off Longford where there is constant danger. Would have like to have that fight for the win with Cakes, oh well.

See you next week!

-Matt

Ah, edited my post to Steve, sorry!

Yeah I let the field pass on both starts to get some racing, and racing i got, despite it being short, it was fun.
despite me being way slower is good to race against someone that wont do anything wonky or take weird lines or do sudden changes of direction.
props for clean racing!

managed to get good pace later on but i crashed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
