Hi Limpy!!!!

I'm always around, checking these forums everyday for the occasionnal post. I don't race much anymore due to lack of free time but when I do, rF2 is still my favorite. I tried Assetto Corsa but, while it does looks great, it doesn't feels as satisfying as rF2 to me. The tyre physics in rF2 are quite hard to beat, IMO...

I'm unfortunately too busy to commit to anything organised/recurrent but if there's some kind of online meet announced a bit in advance, I'd be happy to try to join! 8)

I updated to DX 11, but I guess my system just isn't strong enough, lol, after the minor second update, my fps went up to about 30-40 on DX11. Hopefully, they will have a few more updates so I can play it.
I may be slow, but at least I'm consistantly slow !

I found this thread about F1RFT2015, I haven't tried it but there's probably the fix in there (most likely the file extension but there's also a "ready-to-eat" repackaging on page 2 with just the cars): https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php? ... 015.51761/

tbh im just sticking with the dx11 builds i have tried many of these mods that came before steam
and they suck .the tracks look like an N64 lmao

just not good enough for todays tracks

i run blackwood , brazil and canada
they look good too

just be careful with old mods before the steam build
and beta only came out few months ago so not much has been converted yet

best get mods on steam it install for you and you can be sure it safe

im limpindog@hotmail.com on steam or imp .if want add me

The last build update made a huge difference in performance for me, some tracks I am getting over 100 FPS. Nice job by Studio 397!
I may be slow, but at least I'm consistantly slow !

HHEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYY StevieBBBBBBBBB! 8)

I'm doing great, ty. I hope you do too!

Are you guys racing elsewhere, by yourselves or not much? I'm not racing much these days myself due to being quite busy at my job (not much hope for change on this account before I retire in a few years) but I often find myself longing for a few races or a short season with the old gang...

Stay in touch!
