[RELEASE] Super Touring World Version 1.6

Phillip Kruger wrote:Hi gtp. What info do you need. Lap times. Or what could help?

Info on performance of less well known cars in other series such as the SEAT Toledo, VW Vento..

Hi, just catching up with v1.7 and noticed one small thing, release said includes all updates/fixes but notice the .tyr files released by jarodparker in early Jan may not all be included (simply by checking the file dates), one file is dated later then the jarodparker files, the other three are earlier in the v1.7 pack.

Is there an easy way to compare files or should I just copy the later January files over ?.

However I have to say a big thanks for the effort modders put into producing so many updates so quickly .

It's because Simon not like my tyres V2. The game become more difficult and that not correspond as what he want for his mod. The fastest difference between tyres V1 and V2 is 7sec per lap at Spa but V2 have realistic laptime.

You can be found V2 here :

The alone things I don't understand in 1.7 it's, why kept all different weight for RWD ? Exemple Subaru have 1055kg and become fastest of BMW 320 who have 1095kg.

Alex, maybe want you I give your link for 1.7 in my add-on topic because it risk to be forget in this topic if it is not in first post ?

Certain cars like the Subaru, SEAT, VW Vento still need some balancing but I do not have data for them to do so at the moment - contributions appreciated! If you see a car like the Hyundai Lantra in 1.7 it's much slower than other cars and more accurate. The rest of the HDC files (apart from obscure entries) are based on actual IRL data - you'll note differences such as how the Volvo S40's get faster season after season from 97-99.

EDIT: I will adjust some car performance for accuracy in the next update

One thing that is being fixed in V1.71 (WIP) is the very OP early 90's BMW's 318i....

As the mod came with a GDB for 1995 championships, I decided to create files for all years from 1991-2002. All currently released carsets are listed.

I've already done these, kept them out of main release as Simon didn't like them, but will be offering them as a optional extra

why?

From what I recall (correct me if reading Si ) he felt there were a lot of different menu's already.

Everything is being set up for a launch of the update of the mod, and a dedicated website. Once my exams are done, i'll be fully on this. Hopefully be up by end of June

I'm leaving you all for a couple weeks due to (planned) personal commitments... this is some of what is to come in July (with more news later this month) for all you Super Touring Car fanatics... Take it easy until then! #Furi

Impressive massive work mate

were the updates release panned for July ?

He's got time yet. It's only the 1st day of July, still another 30 to go.

that's why I asked July, to be prepared in what could be the final mod

There are still skinpacks to be done so i guess it won't be the final version of the mod in that aspect.

Plan was July, pushed back a little.

Confident of V2.0 being 95% ready by end of this month.

I've just finished a race with the 1991 BTCC carset at Silverstone National - first race in the championship

I have to say that this mod has some of the best AI I've ever raced against offline. They don't drop away as soon as you pass them, but try to attack back. They try to hold on and defend their line to the next corner if you're overtaking.

No daft moves, no being punted off the track because they are braking impossibly late for a particular corner.

Congratulations all round - this is superb stuff!

Thank you for the kind words mate!! Indeed racing with these cars is definately thrilling.

I can't get GTR2 to work online but if i can figure it out are there races online with this mod?

Can't tell if this mod can be played online as i only play offline.

Someone I know has got it working online, when V2.0 is out, perhaps a few of us can do some races?
