My theory is that too much weight is given to lost friction from the smoother surface and not enough given to increased chemical adhesion from the carbon on the track bonding with the carbon in the tyres. Like the current problem with dynamic track getting slower than a green track. Again, you can take the time to work out how to model it.Īnd the weighting of different interactions can be sometimes a bit off. So the effect is there, it's just not very natural. Then some things are thrown in as assumptions, rather than being modelled properly. Like we have seen in Aris' blogs with ACC. So you find what you are missing and try to model it. Like when Forza Motorsport 2 models driving better than your actual sim you should take notice.īut even then I don't think something was wrong with the model. Something that everyone had been saying in the sim world. But we did have a dramatic improvement a few years back when basically all the pro drivers were saying how far off the physics were. I think telling a man his calculations are wrong doesn't work because he can go through first principles and confirm they are ok. There have been, and continue to be, issues with the iRacing tyre model that other sims don't seem to struggle with. Why get so up in arms if iRacing's future is still secure even without the trolling.Ĭlick to expand.I don't have anything against the man, and have to admit this is the first time I've come across someone who does. Maybe not a good example ha, but you know what I mean. As if rF2 is anything but a David to iRacing's goliath. Just look at the recent Le Mans thing and the trolls are frothing over it. But yeah, there's a troll farm element there too. The loyal user base is a real asset to the service. I enjoy the forum and yes, there's a huge variety of people from different backgrounds there. I wasn't joking about the forum, and didn't mean it as an insult to the game. Previously it felt worse than Forza and Project Gotham Racing. Close enough where you can actually enjoy just running laps on your own now. It's not like as good as rF2 or R3E even, but it's really close. With the bad press big Dave went back to work and truly improved it. ![]() The tyre model got a huge improvement a few years back following a debacle where a bunch of pro drivers publicly slammed iRacing for something basically everyone had been saying from the start. If you are only gonna use the title for the LMPD I'd say go with rFactor or a AC modĬlick to expand.If you haven't played it in 5 years you should try again. That being said, it's not for everyone simply due to the cost and I would never suggest the title to someone that is a casual racer or just looking to race AI, as there is cheaper options that can give you a good/great experience. ![]() I'll admit, I'm a iRacing fan as I find it just works good on my system and I enjoy and use a large portion of the content. I haven't tried the LMPD in either title. Having raced the GT3, I'd agree with those statements.good and similar.but not quite as good as ACC I've watched a couple reviews on the update and it seems to be well received, a few YouTubers said it's the closest iRacing GT3s have felt to ACC. The GT3's and LMP class just recieved a physics and tire model update just before Xmas. You mentioned ACC, I assume you play and enjoy that title? So the title "should" continue to improve in that department. IRacing also hired Terence Groening during COVID.he was the physics and tire model developer for rF1, rF2 & rFPro. Take the following with a grain of salt.Jimmy B did a video a few months back on tire models in sim racing and actually said he felt the iracing model to be the most realistic. IRacing ffb is based on steering torque so it's a bit dull on straights but I find the chassis ffb detail excellent. IMO the better option would be iRacing.larger community with hourly scheduled races and arguably one of the best AI/in-game customization in sim racing.Īs for physics/ffb.I'm no physics expert but I find them similar, ffb has always been good if not the best in rfactor as it offers more chatter on the straights and tire detail. The second question is how much are you willing to spend? ![]() I feel the big question is how do you plan to race the LMPD?
