    just been trying. visually and sound wise its phenomenal. Physics wise, even with assists off is a bit on rails, it really takes something to get these things oversteering, and then its easily catchable.

    I know the real series caters for amateur race driver so wondering. is it enjoyable or to easy?

    I enjoy it personally. It doesn't have to be difficult to be fun.

    I also enjoy the mod and I went to both the Blancpain and WEC rounds at Silverstone this year and the amount of sideways action from these cars is sadly non-existant so the handling seems realistic on that score.

    only thing i saw a SLS AMG get stuck behind a lotus for all eternity lol. it couldnt pass the slower car at silverstone in AMS

    I was thinking about taking out some of the older cars in it just keep some the gt3 favs.

    I'm really enjoying driving these myself. I notice quite a difference between the cars too. They maybe easier to drive at 80-90% but I find them challenging enough as anything to get all of it out of them.

    in real all the gt3 cars are very easy to drive... just go on youtube and check some onboards from the nos where you can see this really great, yes its a bit like on rails... thats the reason for the gt3 success as nearly everyone can drive it... check the entries everywhere how many gentlemen and amateurs drive on the real series..
    back in gtr2 a real driver was using our cars to practice for the vln, n24 and 24h series and now on ams htp motorsport i using the amg for their practice (you can check on our facebook page there some pics where clemens schmid is on the simulator) ;) we got the feedback that the cars handle like real (and that the cars can brake much later real than on the mod ^^ ), for sure there can be always improvements and our physics master already started to work on a new one but too bad he retired from modding... so for now we have to use the stuff we already have...

    a little hint: you should use brake pressure on 100% and abs on max so you avoid the locking tires when braking into the corners ;)

    @PATR10T , Can you send me other link do download the basic pack of GT3 mod? I already tried all this days on mega but when the download reachs around 70 or 90% It get stuck and show me a msg that the server is too loaded.

    I mean, the file with around 1gb that is on the FB page.

    I already install the mega software and it was quite the same.




    Do you have other link?, thanks.

    the cars are balanced yes, you should be able to drive the same lap times with each car... for sure on the ai it can be a bit different...

    like i already wrote our physics maker left us so we dont create new ones and just share the ones we already have, the lotus is using the mclaren physic so normally he should be able to run the same laptimes...

    where should i have this files from? ;) answer is no

    would be great if we would have access to all files so i think we could make some things better as we would have some examples ;)

    On the cars being "on rails" yeah, they are a bit easier than I'd like them to be right out of the box, but it is also about the setup. Better make a setup where the car understeer than something that will spin as soon as you hit the brakes simply because there is a ton of people out there (aka the average Joe) driving for years and still can't do basic setup changes. New physics would be harder to drive, but with setup work you could make the cars close to what is now, except it would punish you for "overdriving" if you did it. Hopefully they'll be done someday.

    Use the Megasync the mega site offer you, you should be able to download the 1gb part without problems, if it pauses while downloading and show you an ads with prices just right click on the Megasync, exit it, restart your modem and open it again, download will continue after that.

    I wish we could use it in the Cup Porsche tbh but anyway I want to take a look at Boxer cup physic, need to add the low force ffb stuff to the GT3 cars, guess I'll have to wait for the CART mod to be updated after AMS release

    Mod is great!! Improvements to make the physics more realistic in the future will be appreciated, but not necessary to enjoy what is there now. It's difficult to make physics updates if you have to also maintain a balanced field. Much easier if they were all just individual models with their various characteristics.

    I really like the attention to sounds. When the cars are balanced, sound is one of the things that separates them for picking a favourite to race. The only issue for me is that the master sound level is too high relative to the Reiza stock content. So you need to turn the volume down for EEC and then back to normal for everything else. It only needs a 10 or 15% decrease across-the-board to be perfect.

    I like it to because it has its own name in The Lobby, and doesn't hijack a Reiza Slot.
    So i don't end up being booted joining a race using Mods i don't use.
