iRacing is so out of Date

[i4Gott]

Here is another example of how poor iracing and its staff stay current. Their website gives an explanation of their graphics, but its from 12 years ago. They are so behind, they dont even update their website. You all claim this company is the best, what company can even say this when they cant keep their content up to date. Outdated, old, poor quality, with a high price. Demand more for the costs you pay or continue to let them slide. If you cant handle the small stuff, you cant handle the big stuff.

See for yourself.

gotta tell ya.. i find the whole experience meh. its honestly for the sheer numbers

I prefer iRacing graphics over Assetto corsa and the likes. The 'old' iRacing graphics are clear and calm for the eyes and it makes it easier to stay focussed. I don't need all those (overdone) graphic effects and filters and stuff. The only thing iRacing really needs to improve is the ugly old 2D trees next to the track, they should replace them with proper 3D trees.

As always i am surprised by the topic.

The textures (for the most part) are good, lighting is decent. But yeah the trees which are just 2 intersecting pngs are pretty bad, luckily don't tend to notice them when you're driving. Clouds don't look great either.

The main thing that bothers me is the awful early 2000s HUD graphics and UI, but it's at least better than rFactor and Raceroom.
I dunno what it is about racing sims and the incredibly outdated graphics/gui, i guess they know they don't need to spend resources improving it because people will use the service anyway.

Dirt Rally with zero OSD is badass, gotta listen to codriver for upcoming turns. Only HUD I ever have in sim racing games are relatives in online races.

I do got a question if you dont mind me asking. I am having a problem with IRacing and steam where Iracing gets to 100% and doesnt actually finish and the times I do get it downloaded I cant actually update anything it tells me to and I click what needs to be updated and nothing happens

That question has been answered about 30 times in this forum.

The ugly UI and the lack of translation to other language is the thing that bother me the most.
