SimRacing General: successor to Forza/Gran Turismo/Racing thread - Games

Are we done with PotW? :(

[QUOTE=venom;51759156]Are we done with PotW? :([/QUOTE] Yeah lmao. But I think we should just continue to post pictures anyways because why not

Pictures are pictures so I'm posting mine [t]https://my.mixtape.moe/cuxvoc.jpg[/t] Even without editing it still looks p good I'd say.

[QUOTE=BF;51758149]It's in Forza 6, so it may be in Forza Apex. Funnily enough I was racing it in Forza 6 just yesterday. Brings back memories of Gran Turismo 3. [editline]1st February 2017[/editline] Forza 6 has the Mazda 787B, too. Both have the same liveries that they also had in Gran Turismo 3.[/QUOTE] I sadly cannot properly run apex for some reason. Random races will have massive stuttering out of nowhere even when the same map is stutter-free on other races

The GT ONE is essentially only available in Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo games, plus a few obscure games from the early 00's. The closest you'll get on PC is a rip-off in Burnout: Paradise, but that game is almost ten years old.

My room is tiny. Oh well, since forza 7 will be on PC i will just cross my fingers it will be there.

The Chief Designer at Codemasters is doing an AMA on reddit tomorrow which might be interesting.

[QUOTE=ulvemann43;51755845]Are there any good racing games on PC which contain the toyota GTONE?[/QUOTE] Rastadogg and I were making a racing game that featured it alongside a shitload of other cars. Sadly I'm absolutely fucking terrible at making realistic handling so it hasn't made much progress.

Holy shit, GTR3 is now real. Coming in 2018, Unreal Engine 4, and dynamic time of day/weather are in.

I got Forza Horizon 3 on the 30th and I've been having a blast! I got a Horizon Edition Viper yesterday, too! Anyways one question, is there any penalty for doing street races?

Is project cars worth it? It's part of the current humble bundle so i got interessted.

[QUOTE=ulvemann43;51768600]Is project cars worth it? It's part of the current humble bundle so i got interessted.[/QUOTE] I think pCARS gets a bit of criticism for its driving model, but I've had a lot of fun with it. There's a lot of cars, and a lot of tracks, and it very much reminds me of the old TOCA games from back in the day. The AI is a bit aggressive on the higher settings (a friend of mine called them "ramming cunts"), but they make for a good challenge. There's the career mode if you're interested in progressing through the different disciplines, but most of my time has been spent in the custom race mode.

[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;51768648]What do you mean in terms of penalty? They're a fair bit worse than normal races for income but that's about it.[/QUOTE] Wait they give you not as much money? I remember the street races in FH1 giving you so much money that it wasn't even funny.

[QUOTE=ulvemann43;51768840]What is special about its driving model?[/QUOTE] Sometimes feels like the cars have no traction - like driving on ice. Since I've bought a wheel, I haven't found this to be as much of a problem.

[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;51765203]Holy shit, GTR3 is now real. Coming in 2018, Unreal Engine 4, and dynamic time of day/weather are in.[/QUOTE] I saw this. If it lives up to what they're promising, it could be everything I've wanted in a racing sim. R3E is already my favorite racing sim, and if they can basically do that, but in UE4 and without the bullshit pay model that's a huge win.

Am I blind or has this not been posted here yet? [video=youtube;0YrrK92fQmk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YrrK92fQmk[/video]

i posted this in the video section but i thought maybe not everyone checks there, some beautiful cars [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TQUNRymIfk[/url]

I wish more games these days would have a bigger variety of body kits.

[QUOTE=ulvemann43;51771447]I wish more games these days would have a bigger variety of body kits.[/QUOTE] yeah i feel like some brands are super underrepresented like, Ings+1, C-West, Ridox, VeilSide its always copy paste generic rocket bunny, lb works bodykit done

I really love bodykits which do something more than just staple on wide arches. Stuff like the rocket bunny NSX and such, i really want games to have more of that, instead of stuff like the RX-7 rocket bunny kit.

Has the PC performance of FH3 improved since release?

[QUOTE=BlackPearl;51772022]Has the PC performance of FH3 improved since release?[/QUOTE] Menus are no longer super duper slow, game runs quite a bit better for me, but I've also since swapped out to a 1070 so it runs perfectly on ultra for me now.

[QUOTE=cr4sh!;51771642]yeah i feel like some brands are super underrepresented like, Ings+1, C-West, Ridox, VeilSide its always copy paste generic rocket bunny, lb works bodykit done[/QUOTE] Need for Speed 2015 licensed Spirit Rei and didn't even include their best kit, which makes me so mad. [t]https://streetstandard.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/DSC00141.jpg[/t]

Are there actually any good pc racing games which feature a crap ton of body kits?
