Project Cars 2 is en route :D

Born2BSlow · 12 Jul 2017 at 23:21

Abso-blooming-lutely make sure to check in the projectcarsgame forum thread because he also gives recommended FFB setup links for different wheels too...the ones I use for my T500 make the game come alive properly...

A little googling to find the settings and a few tweaks and PCars is right up there with AC for FFB imo...

What wheel do you have?

Just checked and it looks like the Logitech Driving Force Pro.

Should be lots of Project Cars 2 stuff from today, SMS have opened the floodgates, vids and screenies no longer need to be approved by them...

Use DFGT settings they should work for your wheel.

This is the thread you want, BManic did loads of work with the physics guys on PCars1, if his settings don't work for you none will lol

Don't worry about changing the settings on each car, just use the Jack Spade tweaker files...

Thanks I will give them a try.

The track and car list is rather impressive. I just hope they sort the AI out and this could be my go to SP game.

From what I've read on the forums they seem to think they have, will have a go later to see. I've only been doing time trials so far really.

15 laps at Oulton on 100% ability with 50% aggression...no ramming, no corner cutting, I started last and made quick progress forwards, but as I got nearer the front it got harder... (oo-er missus), in the first game I could make it to the front within 5 laps, it took me until lap12 to fight for the lead. It didn't feel stupidly hard or stupidly easy...well balanced.

Overall impression is they are much more aware of your presence and on sensible aggression they didn't defend stupidly hard, but they didn't always make it easy either. Definitely an improvement.

This is a pretty good video showing AI behaviour as it is now, not mine...

looking forward to this a lot of hours spent racing on the the first one

Some Silverstone images.

That looks great, the resolution looks great as well.

This is my attempt at Knockhill...can't get it to record in VR so this is on my 24" monitor (and I'm used to the Rift now). Apologies for the driving.

Looks good. UI also seems better than PC1, which used to confuse hell out of me

Born2BSlow · 17 Jul 2017 at 17:11

Lots of improvements...I'm loving it right now...I've not really bothered up to now but it's getting to an almost finished state and having got a Rift it would be rude not to

cool didn't realise this had knockhill in it.

MikeTheNative · 17 Jul 2017 at 21:32

I'm slightly worried about seeing people driving all over the kerbs in the soaking wet and it seeming like it's not even affecting the car.

Born2BSlow · 17 Jul 2017 at 22:20

Haven't tried anything other than dry weather...will give it a go tomorrow.

insideline · 19 Jul 2017 at 16:34

The Bathurst v8 video in the wet is pretty funny. In real life these cars back ends step out at every chance in the dry weather yet on that gameplay video the rear is planted in the wet and the guys braking later than they the real drivers do in the dry...

Still, it's a mainstream video game and not a proper sim so can't expect too much.

Born2BSlow · 19 Jul 2017 at 20:42

I don't know about that, I've just watched some rl wet Bathurst v8 races on YouTube to compare and they don't hang about on wet tyres...seems fairly similar to me..the PC2 video is light rain in drying conditions.
