VLM included the old UI as well. To change to the original, go back into the rFm and in the VLM_PTC.rfm file change the line "OptionsDir=UIDATA\PTC\" to "OptionsDir=UIDATA\PTC2\"

Won't that cause a mismatch online?

Well yes it does

Why not invert the folder names then ?

Good idea

Brilliant JP

Very nice mod. Sounds awesome. Brake and headlights have never looked so good in Rfactor.
I needed to 4gb patch my rfactor.exe to fix the Midohio FPS issues,
--> remember to uncheck "read only" to patch it

Une question bête, mid ohio c'est sympa mais c'est un tourniquet alors pour le serveur test, on ne pourrait pas avoir Le Mans ???

C'est prévu, il viendra l'année prochaine Enfin demain quoi. Et ce jusqu'à dimanche.

Mr. Jeff,
could you be so kind and make it more clear to me, what exactly are you doing, since I also have som FPS problem in Midohio, and this thing you are talking about is total SF to me... PM can do, not to disturbe gentelmen around here..
thank you

I Think if you run windows 7 64bit unless you use the 4gb patch then rfactor only uses half your available memory

I Use the patch also

Finally got to try it out

Well the physics to me are okay
The cars have very little feel in the wheel i cant really get a sense of what is going on with the tires or anything for that matter. I dont get the same good feeling with this mod as i do with the HSO group C mod where i can literally feel the wheel tightening up under real hard braking points and heavy in the turns where the VLM feels like it has power steering.

The sights and sounds are great though. The cars look amazing and some you can change rims and have engine upgrades.

This mod is pretty good i cant wait to see what happens with everyone one the track.

You just took words out of my mind...
Even still trying to get right FF strength and feel, I find complete missing of the "car weight" feeling on the wheel... While HSO GroupC gives me this inertion and weight dimension...
I hope it is still not tested enough by myself and maybe finding this touch somehow..

I think you both have an issue with your Force Feedback, because with this mod i can feel every single bump in the road, when i'm braking hard i can feel the wheel tightening perfectly like Austin said he can't, in fact in many cases i feel the wheel is too heavy, particularly in the long straight at le mans, it shakes like crazy in every bump, also when i drive over the kerbs in the corners i can feel the car bouncing perfectly, i must say i was very impressed with the force feedback, so I can't understand why don't your wheels react the same.

I have my FF at -100% strength and all effects turned on.

It's also in your gtpc install. Called 4gb patch.

Ah-thanks all...

Guys on realfeel.

Dont forget ingame car selection to click on "force x1" in "car upgrades"

edit: i forgot to click the dollar sign above to install upgrade, i think i was driving default.
it needs to say (installed) after u click dollar.

Quelqu'un peut il me dire qu'elles sont les versions du circuit du mans qui ont été rendues dispo par Virtua_LM ? 1977 et 1979 ? Y en a t'il des plus récents et si oui, ou les trouver ?

Il y a aussi la version 91-96 ici.

I managed to trick myself
Wondering between diferent rF instances, it turned out I dont have reelfeel installed in official one.
Now, thankx to Jeff, I have much better feel (is it reel? ) on the wheel. I shouldve been a poet.
And who'd know there is anything called 4gb patch
things are much smoother now.
thank you all..

one more thing, were those cars so understeered for real too?

are you struggling too ?

I added Le Mans 79 on the server (link in the first post if needed), now you just have to vote for the next event to change between Mid Ohio and Le Mans.

The cars naturally under steer, The theory is, slow in fast out.
