WTCC goes virtual - Page 10

GTR and GT Legends (made by the same people) made it to Australia, i'd assume this one (and GTR2) will make it here as well

Alfa Fan · 22 Sep 2006, 17:04 (Ref:1716518)

The RACE website has confirmed that the Maurer Motorspor Chevrolets will be in the game. But there's no new of the Toyota.

Hehe, means someone's volunteered to repaint the car model

Alfa Fan · 22 Sep 2006, 17:19 (Ref:1716534)

Hope they do the Toyota. They've gone to so much effort to make it accurate, would be a shame to have a car missing

Hazard · 22 Sep 2006, 17:24 (Ref:1716545)

Car models look great in those wallpapers...very nice indeed.

The Chevrolet, BMW & Seat particularly are stunning...I'm not certain about the Alfa, the front looks a bit odd...

IF (big if) November release is accurate, I think at least a car missing is likely. Loads of extra's usually turn up to Macau.

It's not as though the Toyota is a key part of the WTCC entry list. I didn't even see it! But to have as many different cars to try as possible would be good.

Alfa Fan · 22 Sep 2006, 18:01 (Ref:1716577)

Would just be nice for completeness.

Considering that SimBin have now issued official screenshots of this track may indicate that its "complete" and no further changes / improvements will occur.

I have a feeling that what we see in those pics is what we will get in the final version.

The tracks are all modelled from the circuit data, including GPS, for accuracy... when you're racing at Brands, Paddock deson't look steep... it just isn't there at all... all you can see is the run up to Druids... only when you turn through it and plunge downhill does it feel steep and that's because you see the track ahead filling the whole height of the screen, making the braking area for Druids invisible behind your windscreen header strip...

pirenzo · 24 Sep 2006, 17:24 (Ref:1717731)

Yup. The dip in Paddock actually accounts for a very small portion of the curve. It doesn't help that the main part of the corner where the drivers turn in and make their apex is very difficult to observe from either on the ground or from the TV cameras which heightens the sense that paddock is for the most part very steep, which isn't the case.

Hazard · 24 Sep 2006, 22:40 (Ref:1717984)

Actually...saying that I sort of got my head at the angle today that the screenshot was taken, and probably agree a bit more that it looks okay...I'm more used to looking at it from the other side (towards it) and from there it's a plummet!

Rockmunky · 17 Oct 2006, 17:59 (Ref:1740425)

Any news on a demo yet?

Hazard · 17 Oct 2006, 19:19 (Ref:1740489)

Nope, but we have a date.

November 24th (provisional!)

And some new screenshots at www.race-game.org

nickyf1 · 17 Oct 2006, 20:12 (Ref:1740520)

thats one day before my birthday!

Rockmunky · 17 Oct 2006, 20:20 (Ref:1740529)

Nice stuff, can't wait. That's for the game, yes? Not the demo?

Ooh working late on a Friday night, i don't envy you, even if you do have abit of a play now and then....

Can't wait though, this should be good!

Down F0rce · 21 Oct 2006, 11:52 (Ref:1744050)

Will this need an uber PC like GTR2 does?

JAG · 22 Oct 2006, 21:36 (Ref:1745505)

A nice appetiser before the real deal!

i just picked this thread up, great news. It'll have to go a long way to beat the BEST saloon racer of all time tho, TOCA 2 (and im not talking about race driver)

Agreed...but reckon this will do it - GTR series to go by.

Sodemo · 27 Oct 2006, 17:31 (Ref:1751333)

The Race demo is up...

Hazard · 27 Oct 2006, 21:03 (Ref:1751507)

Ooh!

And they're adding the WTCC from '87 (well, BMW & Alfa).

Some new screenshots too.

**touringlegend** · 27 Oct 2006, 22:41 (Ref:1751561)

Demo seems weird on mine, but it's probably just my computer. Dissapointed if the real game doesn't work either.
