    Really interesting and great work! Also nice to have a platform for some experiments as Avoletta proved :)

    Interesting that the downside isn't immediately obvious to someone. I haven't tried this yet so can't comment myself. Just saying, cause achieving true balance must be difficult given this.

    Are you :whistle: with your eye?

    EDIT:
    I tried the mod and it feels fun to drive. Nice to see stability control kick in like a magic hand when the car rotates too much. I didn't exactly have great success with the extra modifications, but that's not the mod's problem :). Nice work!

    Thanks for all the comments!
    Just one detail, the Porsche available now is the 2018 991.2 GT3 and not the GT3RS.

    If you want to keep using the mod you need to install the new bootfiles (version 1.1.0.4.1451 as of the time of writing). In fact, you need to do so after each game update.

    NOTE:
    To make sure all the frequent game updates go smoothly do the following:
    a. switch your game update (in Steam) from Automatic to "only update when Iaunch it"
    b. when a new game version appears uninstall bootfiles first using JSGME.
    c. update the game
    d. reactivate the bootfiles with JSGME
    e. edit relevant entries in vehicleist and driveline rg as per instructions in mod cars readme

    If you update the game with active bootfiles, you will have to:
    1. deactivate bootfiles,
    2 validate game files in steam,
    3. reactivate bootfiles

    Sorry to say, both are road cars so far which I have little title interest in AMS 2. The road cars content in AMS 2 is terrible.

    If it’s additional GT4, 2016 stock cars, GT1 and so on, I’ll be very interested.

    Yes. Always use bootfiles that correspond to your game version.
    1.1.1.0 will be up early next week. Waiting for hotfixes (if any).

    edit 02.02:
    OK, updated bootfiles 1.1.1.0.1502 are up.

    I advise applying bootfiles that correspond to your exact game version. The beta game won't break down with these bootfiles, but as a beta tester you're supposed to provide reliable feedback to devs, and you won't be reliable once you start mixing and matching files (they will have an impact on handling).
    I advise that you go to the main branch if you want to use mods.

    @gvse Thank you for the reply I fully understand.
    So far I have tried one of the Porsches and this is great work awesome drive. I have some issue with only one Porsche showing and the Ford not showing. Activation steps followed in the order advised. Ford first then Porsche then boot files. Some conflict messages show up when installing the Porsche and bootfiles but conflicts accepted and continue selected.
    Check both vehicle list file and physics file checked for added entries and all required added entries showing.
    Activation window has the ford greyed out is this a sign of something not installed correctly?

    EDIT:
    After PC reboot all cars now showing, Ford still grey in installer but all working OK.
    With AMS2 platform and this work by @gvse truly a great driving experience well done.

    the greyed out part is ok, nothing to worry about.
    If one car shows up then folder structure should be good (no nesting). I'd guess you have gone wrong somewhere with adding entries to vehiclelist. I'd need to see it to say something for sure. PM me.

    Just as I got it sorted looks like new bootfiles will be needed.

    I just checked and everything works fine. Use a different browser / clear cache?
