Endurance Series at the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Posted on September 3rd, 2011 in rFactor – 5 Comments

Team Enduracers’ still-expanding Endurance Series mod has not just become one of the most popular rFactor content around but also made quite an impact at this year’s Le Mans 24 Hours race.

Back in June during the endurance racing classic, the mod could be raced in the Michelin Paddock where race visitors could sample the mod on six racing rigs with races being shown on big screens for fans walking by.

The mod was also available in Team Oreca’s hospitality as the team’s guests could drive the virtual version of the Peugeot 908 HDi FAP while the real car was circulating out on track. You can check out plenty of photos of the event below, very neat to see a community product having such a big presence at the world’s biggest motor race.

    Such nice gaming rigs, and than let people drive from a completely artificial angle.
    That way you never feel like you are in a simulator.

    What version of Le Mans are they driving there?

    It seems like it is SNL LeMans 2004.

    I agree with the angle thing, but I disliked the hood-cameras in this mod. A good hood-cam is exactly at the front lower end of the windscreen and gives the best immersion. Surely, Cockpit is nice blabla, but from a realistic point of view, simracing cockpit-cams are all unrealistic. When I look out of my realworld car, 95% of my field of view are concentrated on the road, only 5% are somewhere in the cockpit, mostly because there are parts in the way you can’t see through (like the inside mirror for example).
    With simracing cams, there is only about 50-60% of the screen for the road, the rest is full of cockpit, what is just stupid… and even worse: as our monitors are already all smaller than a real windscreen, it’s like you only get 25% of the real field of fiew. Surely you can change that with the degrees of the FOV but then everything becomes unbelievably slow…

    Nothing wrong with hood cams then, just the enduracer ones are not very good… Good example how to do it right is SimBins GTR and GTR2.
