Dear Dylbie! Can we all ask you to continue your work and to bring here in rF2 cars from GT Legends?

Hi Dylbie, I sent you a friend request, wants to ask you about driver for the renault 8 gordini mod im working on. https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/mod-r8-gordini-version-beta-released.36122/page-8#post-1125659

I never, ever, ever comment on this forums about a mod. But i needed to come back here and thank you. This is the most fun i´ve had so far with Rfactor 2. BY FAR. The interior sound is amazing, the noises and grinds and everything adds so much to the imersion. Really fun.

I was wondering if you could supply the templates for these cars?

Super voiture!

Crazy good mod!

Wonderful mod, a true must have!!!

Maybe it's just my preference but this has to be one of the best handling and feeling cars in all of sim racing. It's bloody marvellous!

This is a nice car: the model looks neat, the engine howl is great, and the driving characteristics will feel right to anyone who's familiar with the Lotus Cortina as depicted in GT Legends. Really impressed by the variety of authentic liveries and the customisation options. Most of all, it's great to be able to combine such a classic touring car with the historic tracks available in this game. Many thanks to all those who created this mod!

Great update to this mod. Feels much more stable than the previous version and the FFB is much improved.

However, I found that there still is a sound problem in the BSCC historic racing version of the mod. I couldn't hear the engine and the gear and wind noises were way too loud. I tried the stock version and the modern version as well and their sound was fine. This will be lots of fun to drive.

Thanks for the update mate. Awesome....
Chelete V12 Mar 27, 2020 @ 12:39pm 
Great MOD, TOP 10 for me !!
Pedro Ramada Mar 24, 2020 @ 5:55am 
Hello Dylbie :D

First of all many congrats for this mod... to is so Great... seems so real in handling and behavior! Love it!!

The on thing that i would change ( Don't know if it is more real like it is currently ) the interior sound of the engine it self looks a bit asleep and low... for example in external cameras it is much more alive and detailed... so if we could have it a bit better in the interior cam cockpit would be even better!! :) Again... thanks a lot!! Looking forward to your opinion and or reply.

Like the mod. It`s great to have the Lotus Cortina in rF2. Many thanks to all involved. I did notice a couple of things though. There`s a bit of clipping (I think that`s the right term) on the wheels. The rims pop over the tyres sometimes and also the tyres pop through the wheel arches when hard locking sometimes. Just thought I`d mention it. :)
Varrnish Feb 18, 2020 @ 10:51am 
Absolutely excellent, well worth a drive
Woodee Feb 12, 2020 @ 9:58am

Hi Woodee thanks for that. Ill look into those and fix them for the next update.

Great Mod. I too am having very muted engine sounds with little detail audibly. Tried all in game settings for sound with no luck. I have so much fun driving this car. Thank you.
AndrewUK1990 Jan 18, 2020 @ 9:42am 
Great mod this. Like the attention to detail and handling is nice too. I like others though have the oscillations in the FFB; I am using a Simplicity SW20V3 Direct Drive wheel. Usually these problems are related to minimum feedback levels (anything over 0% can cause problems with DD) and damping around the centre. Hope you can find the solution to this but still love the mod all the same as is, very good work!

hi yesterday there was an update what is it? tks.
reuschelle Jan 5, 2020 @ 10:41am 
Thanks for this car! I had a blast dancing it around the Nordschleife last night. Spent like an hour just searching for time and feeling all the different cambers, crests and imperfections around the green monster.

This only happens when loading the replay. The instant replay while in session is fine.
I also get a blue colour underneath the car. On the S397 forum Christopher Elliott says this:

Note: Under normal circumstances these files should never have to be deleted - this concerns testing the open beta.

racer7 Jan 2, 2020 @ 1:46pm 
Thanks for the reply. I am using a Logitech G920.
dylbie  [author] Jan 2, 2020 @ 1:02pm 
@John vd Geest Is this when playing a replay during a race session? Or when actually going back and loading a replay? I'm wondering if there's a hidden setting somewhere? Does it happen with other cars? Have you tried clearing the CBASH and SHADER files?

I had an issue where the underside of the car was showing green, but clearing those folders fixed the textures again.
John vd Geest Jan 2, 2020 @ 11:54am 
@John vd Geest I'll have a look at engine audio levels, but it may be an in game audio setting. I've been using doddynco's sound file, so it may need to be adjusted for default.

If you look at engine audio levels, I'll look at in game settings. Will let you know.

Can you also look at the issue where the skins do not load in the replay setting (all cars are completely white).

Btw, the car drives brilliantly. Thanks for sharing!
akramura5 Jan 2, 2020 @ 11:02am 
fantastic car, the ffb is very good, a real pleasure to drive, continued, your excellent work, thank you!!
ttb57 Jan 2, 2020 @ 9:37am 
Done and thanks.
dylbie  [author] Jan 2, 2020 @ 9:24am 
@ttb57 Can you message me on the S397 forum regarding the car on the Fanatics server? I'll also get the templates to you and try to get them uploaded here.

@racer7 Is the Ginther livery correct? It was very hard to find photos from that era. FFB is being looked at, what hardware/wheel do you use?

dylbie  [author] Jan 2, 2020 @ 9:23am 
@Haris1977 The real car had a range of 810 degrees (2.25 turns), and the ratios are correct according to the FIA homologation documents from 1963/64. Steering is usually down to personal preference though so use what feels best to you. Regarding sounds, Cortinas are renowned for their 'whiny' differentials/gearboxes. The road car isn't as extreme so use that and tune via the upgrades if you want the race spec without the transmission sounds.

@HardWin There is an issue for DD users that I'm trying to fix. Seems to be only DD users who are experiencing a problem though.
dylbie  [author] Jan 2, 2020 @ 9:23am 
@Emery Tyres can be improved, but they are the closest I could find to historic Dunlops. If you're up at 200C then you're sliding too much! You should be able to manage them by reducing power oversteer. Regarding times at Lime Rock there's a number of factors with matching sim lap times to real lap times - laserscan, track conditions, configuration of the engine etc etc. The car is a bit faster than real life but 3 seconds is a lot at a short track. In testing at the laserscanned Spa, and S397 Silverstone I'm about 2 seconds faster, but that's a much longer lap. If you want to PM me we can discuss. I'm thinking maybe the SCCA versions may have been a lower powered spec than the British versions.
dylbie  [author] Jan 2, 2020 @ 9:23am 
Thanks for the feedback guys, keep it coming! :-) I'll reply here to you, but if you want to discuss directly, feel free to message me on the S397 forum, or message the facebook page.
ttb57 Jan 1, 2020 @ 10:46pm 
I should add, I'm using the Cosworth engine and all Historic settings.
ttb57 Jan 1, 2020 @ 10:20pm 
Even though there are not a lot of setup options....really good default set.

thanks to all involved ! ... superb
racer7 Dec 29, 2019 @ 3:20pm 
Great addition to the sim. Richy Ginther was a hero of mine. However I agree with the previous comments that the engine sound needs to be turned up, it feels a little unstable at times (as compared say to the latest Datsun 510 3.1 found elsewhere in the Workshop), and the force feedback could use some improvement. It also gyrates erratically when coming out of the garage for a practice run. Appreciate all your work though.
ttb57 Dec 28, 2019 @ 7:58pm 
Definitely need some templates. Great mod. Running this week at the F3 Fanatics.
HarleyDavidsonfx Dec 28, 2019 @ 6:47pm 
Thank you for a great car. We need more old manual shift cars like this.A blast around the Nordschleife..
FASTWAY Dec 28, 2019 @ 3:52pm 
These are great! Thank you for sharing.
John vd Geest Dec 28, 2019 @ 3:20am 
Great car, thanks. I have 2 requests:
1. can the engine noise be turned up a bit over the noise of the belt?
2. there are no skins on replay. Can that be fixed please?
fourteenbones Dec 27, 2019 @ 5:58pm 
Best rF2 car yet.
More classic touring cars PLEASE!
