Formula 3 Italia F309 for rFactor 2 – Cockpit Previews

Tuttle has released new previews of his Formula 3 Italia F309 for rFactor 2, showing us first ever cockpit previews of the Italian open wheeler.

Tuttle is basing his model on a high-poly version he created of the car for promotional purposes (see here). The rFactor 2 version will use 90% less polygons but will still look stunning as you can see below.

The physics will be based on real telemetry data, Tuttle plans to release the car with a base livery and template, leaving it to the community painters to provide a full field of cars.

     As a PCARS cars fan, I have to give kudos to ISI on the graphics update, after seeing that world premiere trailer :x

    Funny how things are based on real data, but I don’t think *anybody* even remotely understands how the rFactor 2 tire model works yet!

  • http://www.entropyxel.com/ Tuttle

    You’re right. There is a lack of information for the new tire physic and the new TGM is a new territory for everyone…but the main info still remains correct. I’m working with real data for the engine, chassis, suspensions, gearbox, setups, aerodynamics etc… Kumho do not release deep infos about the S700 and formula 3 italian teams doesn’t have much more than standards manuals with a handfull of informations :)…so I’ve to work with other slip angles and tire models similar much as possible to the S700…

    I’m sure, the modders get better results with new TGM, that’s the point and not funny, Niels

    its weird on the mirrors the arm of the mirrors have a little outline bright color, maybe it’s not finished but it’s not ok

    Well they are but honestly you need a super powerful computer to get them.
    For me with HD5770 it hardly looks better than rf1, and much less fps. 

    It will get truly interesting only after release I suppose.

    good graphics require a good graphics card, especiially on a sim that has a lot more then graphics going on.

    and this a beta that needs optimising of course.

     serious? Im running with 3870×2 and getting 60fps lock with everything on full except medium shadows. hdr on.

    so true.
    I have feeling ISI will release very very limited info about rf2 tyre model.

  • Anonymous

    Yes, seriously. Check out even official ISI forums. Most ATi users complain that performance is poor – yet. I do realize its beta but its not good now.

  • jswarthoff

     your card is slower then an ati 4870 :)

    i suggest a geforce upgrade :P

    Amazing work Tuttle, keep it up.
    I’m sure if the new mods start to come out, that will encourage other moders to work on other mods as well…

    Beautiful work guys, specially on car textures. Really clean.

  • http://www.entropyxel.com/ Tuttle

    Thanks guys. Unfortunately the steering wheel and other electronic cockpit parts will be different in the final release…as I’ve to use the F3 Italian standards (Magneti Marelli/Sparco) instead the Euro F3 stuff (Bosch/Momo)….Maybe I could create two different version of the same mod, using different engine/electronic setups…I’ve to think about this…:)

  • noro ardanto

    Thank you for this Tuttle!  Are you going to release this in near future or awaiting final version of rF2?

    This is pure eyegasm! ^^

    Tuttle how do you get the “Toggle Post Fx menus” on the menu? My last menu item is “toggel weather fx…”

  • http://www.entropyxel.com/ Tuttle

    You’ve to force the HDR/PostFX menu into the devmode config.ini.

    Open it and change these two lines like this:

    UsePostFX=1
    UseHDRProcess=1

    Niels, why so cynical? :P (I jest)

  • http://www.entropyxel.com/ Tuttle

    Honestly I dunno.

    I’ve a lot of open projects now…and I’m busy with the daily job…so It will be released asap..:)
