Great, released just in time for my monthly download limit to be reached.

Looks awesome, can’t wait to try it out.

Congrats to all involved. Well done.

I will deffinately purchase a copy of Reiza official work once packaged.

P.s. thanks Rob.

This is very nice, brilliant job by the guys at the studio.
Thanks!

Blows all other rFactor single seaters away. Top work.

Moose: Blows all other rFactor single seaters away.Top work.

It really does. Fantastic mod in every way!

Thanks for the great mod. well, we wanna addon team skins. :D

A+ mod. you can feel everything the car is doing on wheel the first three gears are .

the only and slight problem is that its little bit FPS hungry.

thank you

Outstanding in every way… An instant favorite. Never thought rF would be able to deliver like this.

Well done guys, this has really made me even more excited for what you have in store!

Thanks for making this fantastic car! Waiting for your other works.

simply amazing i would drive that thing til’ tomorrows f1 race non stop but my girl is here tonight. can’t til shes gone. sunday will be amaroli day.

Looks sharp but low poly

Wow having read the comments I can’t wait to try it later

Thank you for this release I just love it great tires and suspension physics. That´s is truly proper tire physics great ffb. thx …valeu Simione. Thank you Nils and Reiza Studio.

HANDS DOWN THIS IS THE BEST MOD RFACTOR HAS EVER BEEN GRACED WITH. CANT WAIT FOR MORE FROM THESE FOLKS. THANK YOU REIZA STUDIOS, BRAVO

Just amazing. The F1 88 look is not my favorite, but the way the car behaves is outstanding. a perfect mix between simulation and sheer fun to drive.

Another excellent surprise! I think I could get used to this release format, it’s the most exciting by far.

Damn you rFactor for spoiling those wonderful renders, but at least the cockpit still looks as awesome in-game. I have a good feeling this mod might see a few other single-seater’s depart from my system.

great job

Great mod!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a Armaroli designed by Gordon Murray? nice mix with the MP4/4 and BT55
P.S. Templates?

Very nice, many thank’s for this awsome car.

Fantastic work. Feels great, sounds great, looks great. Drives the way it should too.

Now we just need templates as it’s a little light on skins (will be rather dull with the same skins online). The gear LCD is unreadable for me too, can’t read what gear it is. But for a first release… Wow!

Mind you, the LCD issue may be just on my side as the screenshots show it as working fine.

I generally don’t like driving single-seaters. They’re hard, nervous and unforgiving. But my got did I have fun with this one! It handles so nice right out of the box. I managed to powerslide out of the hairpin at Mid-Ohio several times

Also the sounds are brilliant, this is from someone who’s always too picky about sounds.

Excellent job! Feels great, cockpit it’s just marvelous and the taste it’s sweet and acid :)at the same time.

Not over exaggerated physics… everything at the perfect point.

Congrats Amaroli!!!!

I have made some colourfull league skins based on the single one that comes with this mod.

You can download these skins at: http://www.riches.nl/armaroli_skins.rar

Will give no online mismatches

You so deserve to never get laid again. Wish I knew your girlfriend. I’d show her this.

Nice to see The Lonely involved.

Hey guys… I tried these settings and they feel better than the recommended realfeel settings… what do you guys think?

MaxForceAtSteeringRack=-1500.000000
SteeringDamper=2500.000000
FFBMixerRealFeelPercent=100.000000
SmoothingLevel=4

my wingman profiler settings are as follows:
overall effects strength: 100%
spring: 0%
damper: 0%
enable centering: checked
centering spring strength: 0%
degrees of rotation: 540
allow game to adjust settings: unchecked

in rFactor I have -100% and Full for FFB effects

this is great! thank you so much guys

Its partly a personal preference, but with max force at -1500, the forces are clipping in anything faster than a hairpin turn, i.e. your wheel simply won’t be able to make fast bends feel ‘tougher’ than a hairpin. You’re missing quite some info, probably in an attempt to ‘firm it up’. Sadly our wheels are just far too weak for proper single seater FFB. :)

Smoothing adds sort of a lag to the FFB which could affect things, plus the harshness of the -1500 can be masked a bit by smoothness and damping.

Use whatever you want though, it seems FFB is the favourite ‘play’ area for people and mods. I always have smoothing at 0, damping at 11500, and the only number I change is the max force, which I set to whatever number the telemetry shows me in a fast bend (about -3000 in this car). Anything thats then wrong with it is because of the relatively wimpy G25 :)

@Niels:

Do you happen to know if the Fanatech Porsche 911 GT3 RS Wheel is any better in this area?

Niels_at_home: Sadly our wheels are just far too weak for proper single seater FFB. :)

. Anything thats then wrong with it is because of the relatively wimpy G25 :)

What about stuff like the FREX FF wheel? Is that capable of giving a better representation?

…oh, just a +1 on liking the car. Only did a few laps at Sepang (which I haven’t driven in ages), but I really liked the driving model even at default.

My one tiny criticism is that I wish you allowed for hires mirrors. Perhaps as an upgrade (dunno if that’s doable). I don’t use virtual mirrors and the low res ones hurt immersion a little.

Thanks to Reiza Studios. Great work!

It’s awesome but the cockpit graphics could be improved. Currently CARTFactor remains as the best rFactor mod.

What’s with the front ARB? Were they really this strong :P?

commodore Currently CARTFactor remains as the best rFactor mod.

Agree with that.. CartFactor is the best single seater mod for rfactor.

But this mod is still a very good one

Try these, http://www.nogripracing.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1054192&postcount=32

Exceptional mod, good thing I’ve got time to enjoy.

Thanks paupau

fpol: Thanks paupau

no biggie

I see one other person is having probs with the HUD. Anyone got a clue how to make it more visible? I cant read it either, way to dark. I hate having to have the overlay HUD up. It could do with being backlit really.

CART Factor has only one BIG problem, is the COMMUNITY that prefers a low quality mod, poor physics but being of the last F1 season…

Huge bug with suspension when u change some settings the car looks inclined on the track with tires sinks on the ground and the others on the air. like in ctdp06 mod.

EAKMotorsports:

Which settings exactly?

on ctdp06 u cannot change the high height on Formula Armaroli I dint find yet maybe is arb or dumpers dont know yet.

Erm well let us know when you do know ;)

the problem was seen on online race.

Reiza Studios and Dev team, you have truly warmed my heart. With releasing this car to our community as a gift shows that you have confidence in your creation, self belief in your abilities and kindness with your act of charity. I for one will be patronizing your business for sure. All the best to you and thank you so very much.

Alex: Erm well let us know when you do know ;)

I reproduced the “problem”. I changed fwd: slow bump=5, rebound=9, rear: slow bump=2, rebound=4 and the front wheel went up to air.
When i tested the car first time a did some similar mistake with the setup, so the car, even the whole screen, was shaking like hell, was not possible to drive it.

Outstanding work! Especially the “feel” of the physics. Thank you guys!

Brilliant work!

Thanks!

What a wonderful mod this is! Great physics, great “realfeel” FFB, very good looks!

The feeling of the downforce in the fast bends is just awesome. And to add to this the brilliant tyre and suspension physics – “trademark” of Niels.

IMO, this is the best reproduction of a pre-modern open wheel car in rFactor!

Great work guys! Can’t wait for your first commercial title.

GonZo: … Do you happen to know if the Fanatech Porsche 911 GT3 RS Wheel is any better in this area?

I think the Fanatec GT3RS wheel is better suited for “RealFeel”, since its FFB is 1.5x ~ 2x times stronger than G25 (by my subjective feelings), with similar control panel settings (100% FFB strength).

Basically, this allows for much higher absolute values of MaxForceAtSteeringRack, which leads to a more detailed FFB.
In example, I’m using for this mod MaxForceAtSteeringRack=-3500 with the GT3RS wheel. And could go even higher to -4000 or more (in absolute value).

amazing job, a youtube video willbe grat

Great. The tire physics in this mod have ruined every other mod I have.

In other words, this blows them away, hands down.

Bravo!

I installed a bunch of Armaroli skins from NoGrip and I went to Barber and game “blips” every so often when lapping with AI cars. Causes cars to blip to the left about a foot and I spin out. Gonna uninstall skins and retry. Will give update in a bit.

UPDATE: I uninstalled skins and went to Birmingham and Mid Ohio. If you race along side the AI cars, when you are going thru some of the turns, the cars jerk to the left. Not turns left but the whole car darts to the left. Seems to happen when I am in the second lane from inside and an AI car is on the inside. I can see cars ahead of me jerking also tho. Not sure if it does it going thru a left turn or not. Can anybody else replicate this? This is installed in a “clean rFactor” install.

Anything thats then wrong with it is because of the relatively wimpy G25 :)

I know this is going off topic a bit, but this idea sounds clever and intrigues me, Niels when you say “whatever number telemetry shows me in a fast bend” what number are you refering to – the tyre load? if realfeel uses steering rack forces, do you add the load from both front tyres or anything?
