Super Touring World - WIP skins & discussion

Markano97 wrote:@Everyone
A very important announcement:
I woke up this morning only to find out about a serious problem that will affect my personal life from now on.
Due to the severity and importance of this issue any planned skinpacks will be cancelled.I will only do the skinpack reworkings but nothing new will done. This leads to the following projects to be cancelled:
-2002-2003 Norwegian series ( intelpower i'm terribly sorry for this mate but i have to cancel it, i'll send over everything i've done and your  entire work.)
-Production class cars for the Spa 24H
-Toca shootout that i planned on doing
-HSCC 2013 was also planned
-1993,1994 Spa 24H

That will be all. My work now will only focus on completing the skinpack reworkings and then i'm done.
The bathurst pack will be taken over by Michael Ford( the original author of the ASTC 1998) and he will also do the 1999 race.
I have sent my Bathurst 1996-1997 packs for release so you won't be missing anything.
This also applies to the FIA World Cup of 1993-1994 even though i had to make some details.

These skinpacks are the ones you should expect from me:
Belgian,French,South African,Australian,Czech/Central European and Japanese skinpack reworks
1996-1999 South East Asian series.
1998 Croatian Series.

A big thank you to all who have supported me these 2 years and motivated me to make all these skins with their kind words. My biggest gratitude to my friend DBstreet. He motivated me with his packs to start skinning properly. If it wasn't for him none of this would have been done.

Hopefully i will come back at some point but i don't really see so.

this portion should include both classes and the first picked cars are normally done by qualification or by the strength of the driver.rcd strength
, also this line can change the front/ fill positions..

Comparativetime=105
bottom line of the .car file

"SpecialClasses

// used to re-categorize a car for players championship use

yep, it's the same

What's up with it?

Also, the sounds annoy me, can't put my finger on it but they just lack the top end PUNCH of the real thing...



If I could work out what sound samples were being used I could try make an adjustment, I'm not sure if's bass or what but the mod sounds lack something. Try the exterior Laguna sample to see what I mean.

I was thinking generally of adding more bass to the car sounds anyway. Also the Mondeo doesn't sound quite right at high revs compared to IRL.

I'm not knocking the work, but they are saloon rear lights. The hatch lights and numberplate shroud are different.

As for sound. I know the guy who owns the '95 spec mondeo in my avatar. I could ask him.

How do you get the track map on?

Not even been looked at since I did the BTCC one's about 8 months ago. Reason for this is since then slowly started work on Championship files and Tracks, and I haven't especially seen the point of doing Championship tests when new skins and entries were being added on a regular basis.

Just a note Championship Files will NOT be with the mod when released but rather with the trackpack (which is still with a considerable amount completed).

in  2006 it was  fast   but suffered from severe tyre degradation  at half the race distance   it dropped down the order fast, only Giovanardi managed to wrestle a win that year at Knockhill by holding off the oppostion for half the race distance


this was an issue with the car  as the tyres were spec parts

Originally the Astra Hatch and the Integra were planned to be in the BTCC 01-03 mod, with other cars from the 2004 and 2005 seasons. Don't know if those seasons are still planned but there's been no news on this since last year.
