rFactor online league proposal (1990 most likely)

Post by FullMetalJack »

I'm thinking of setting up an F1 1990 online league amongst this forum. Please reply if you fancy joining.

I am very interested.

Depending on race time and dates of course.

Good to hear, i'll give more details out if more people show interest. It's a shame you can only race on the 1990 tracks with the 1990 mod, otherwise i'd have done a Singapore race.

You can get around the restriction to tracks from 1990 - but in order to do that, you have to edit the rfm file, which will cause a mismatch online (it is a very simple fix - open the rfm file in Notepad and change the line which has Track Filter = 1990 to Track Filter = *, which will allow you to use any track).

So, the only way that I can think of preventing a mismatch would be if everybody who wanted to play had exactly the same rfm file (at least, I think that would work) - perhaps inconvenient at first, but it would potentially give you the option to use any track you want afterwards.

Thanks for that mario, I can do a lap of 1m59 at Singapore in a Life, I'm only 6 seconds quicker in a 1990 Mclaren.

If anyone's interested in this, we don't have to do 1990, any season (maybe except 1992 because I can't seem to get the 1992 mod to work)

I could do use a number randomiser to decide which cars we get at each race.

I´m up for this :)

I don´t think we´re gonna be enough people for an online league but we could set some weekly meetings.

That's what I like to hear. If we do 1990, i'll have to find a way to random who gets what car, getting the Life would be too unfair though, even Chris Dagnall would struggle in that car. :lol:
