rFactor 2 rFactor2 General Discussion

Take note that existing rF2 apps (plugins) only work if you are running it in DX9. They do not work with DX11.

Are you talking about this one Roy -
BTCC NGTC
The BTCC NGTC mod is brought to you by the Next Gen Mod Team.

I just got it off of the 'new release' list on STEAM ..

Once the new UI comes out (soon) the DX9 build will no longer be supported ..
They do have some tricks up there sleeves regarding what one would call apps built in so until then I don't expect any 3rd party apps to be updated or even created ..
I don't really use any apps anyway in rf2 with the exception of wedge hud (that does work with DX11) so I never missed them in DX11 ..

 

Have you tried rf2's tire display ? It's in the MFD .... cycle items in the group by mapping the MFD display to a button ...

 

No worries when i get home from work i will explain!
Rf2 has multiple mfd screens that show all kinds of info .. and also adjustable pit menu stuff that you need to map to take advantage of !

 

Roy check this out ,
in options go to controls , open DISPLAY & assign 5 keys to these , I use my G27 wheel buttons .

LCD Mode: this turns the pages of the MFD ..cycle threw Tire ware , race positions/timings, Pit stop menu + more ..
use the up/down in the pit MFD to navigate threw the pit selection menu.
use the increase/decrease to adjust your menu selections like add gas ,lower air on right front etc..

the rf2 tire display is pretty cool .. there are some hidden gems in the key commands menu you just have to look around ..

Can you combine dx9 and dx11 car mods in the same event? Also keep in mind we can only run one version of flat6. Otherwise we end up with two sets of stats for the same car.

 

Last night I built a vmod with the stand alone Flat6 4.0 & GroupC mod and it all seemed to run fine ;-)
