WIP FR2X - 2021 Formula race car

Wether the skins for this mod will only be real or like fr 17

 

I think the repository version will have skins similar to that of the FR17. There may also be a separate forum with real skins.

 

@Raider, are you still here?

 

this is amazing can't wait to get my hands on it and if i could i would love to support you with a donation but im broke

 

I forget where but Raider said he was going to college, and it seems like thats what happened/

 

Will it have an electric boost feature? Like the hybrid and kers systems in f1 cars?

 

Wow looks great keep up the good work!

 

how's the mod going?

 

I'd love to know that, too. Raider's last post on the forums overall was in July..

 

I hope it will fly because I hav a flying car version of the fr17 i took off the wings and stuff

 

The entire point of this car is to NOT fly unrealistically like crap.

 

no if u took off wing Front and rear and go fast and hit a peble

 

he's saying the goal is to make it NOT fly because it's unrealistic

 

wat evs i want wat i want and u want wat u want

 

So you want cars to be unrealistic in a physics simulation? really?

 

Well it doesn't matter buddy because you won't get what you want anyway lmao

 

no thats not wat I sed

I don't care It's cools either way

 

it clearly is what you said :

 

you obviously care since youre whining over and over again

 

Hello Raider. As always awesome job on your project. Just going to give some new feedback to what to look for... Hopefully everythings going smoothly...


First thing I want to talk about is the material used in different parts of cars. FR17 was beatufilly designed but it felt like a Playdough car. A Shaped flexible jbeam.In reality Lots of panels and cover are spread in the machine.you can try to split the jbeam to create parts. I think you made a split part at the front wing joint in FR17. And in crashing felt really realistic.IMO yo can try to split radiator cover,engine cover,diffuser,sidepods... (Even something like Indy where whole chasssis splits to half just like Barstow)Thats why IMO stock vehicles from devs feel realistic. They have lots of seperateable parts and don't feel like play dough bending and twisting.Also FR17 doesn't have a Monocouge cockpit. So when a crash happens driver becomes pancake.for me do not make it indestructable but make it at FIA standart :b

Info about Monocouge cockpits

Secondly, Grip model.It really feels like FR17 has so much mechanical grip and so little aerodynamic grip. Front wing feels fine But middle chassis(where most of downforce created and rear parts feels not nice.The flying problem you had is tied to this probably.IMO because of the grippy tyres. The car shakes A LOT. turning or going at 6th gear. It vibrates and shakes a lot compared to IRL counterparts.Shaking part might be because of the 1 jbeam playdough structure this is created on


With those fixed I bellieve that you can release the best mod in the game for a long shot. Good luck and cheers for the last mods that I spend a bit too much time and can't pay back because wanker PayPal is banned here


Extra:What about detailed engine and Radiator bay? Those will look uber-sexy :0
