MMG F1 2008 – Six New Previews

MMG continues to quietly work on their Formula One 2008 project for rFactor and to show that the mod is still very much kicking, six new previews have been released.

The new previews show various cars of the 2008 F1 season, including the Ferrari, Red Bull, Toyota and BMW.

Following their popular 2007 mod, F1 2008 will bring all cars and drivers of last year’s season to rFactor – A season that will go down in history as having one of the closest championship fights ever.


  • Uff

    It looks simply spectacular! :eek: It will be a pleasure to take screenshots with this mod and (hopefully) to drive it! ^^

  • FooAtari

    Those shots look simply photoshoped…

  • DeadStar

    FooAtari: Those shots look simply photoshoped…

    If Gran Turismo 5 and Forza 3 can do it without any shame why can’t the PC Games and Mods do it?

    FooAtari: Those shots look simply photoshoped…

    There’s always one to start it off.
    What isn’t PhotoshoPPed these days ? Any and every magazine cover with a celeb on it is. So what ? I do photography and I touch up my photos with Photoshop. I rely on it in fact.
    You’re trying to make something from nothing. Jeez the ungratefulness never stops.

    Very observant of you :roll:
    Every edit done wasn’t to show off skills but to bring out the car in the image as that is the vector.

    “F1 2008 will bring all cars and drivers of last year’s season to rFactor”

    Err Montoya, last year was 2009 :lol:

  • Danny

    What decade is this coming out? Was announced almost 2 years ago. No use having nice models when the physics are crap.

  • FooAtari

    Well my comment went down well didn’t it :)

    DeadStar:
    If Gran Turismo 5 and Forza 3 can do it without any shame why can’t the PC Games and Mods do it?

    I’ll answer one of them, and that will pretty much answer the rest.

    There is shame in Turn 10 and Polyphony Digital enhances their screen shots as well. Never liked it, never will. It’s just false advertising in a sense. Let unedited screen shots give a proper and accurate representation of the game.

    I made my comments, because of the first one stating that the mod looked spectacular. Well, it’s not going to look like that is it? But many people will believe it will.

    Hey Danny, what decade are you going to grow a brain? Always the same shit with you man, you could find something new to bitch about. At least that way if we have you bitching on here like you always do, it can be about different shit each time, not the same stuff. It just grows tiring watching you make a fool out of yourself all the time. You think anyone here really cares what you think anymore? LOL.

    FooAtari: You are correct in some degree that edited shots don’t really show the true quality of the product, whether it be a game by Polyphony, Turn 10, Slightly Mad Studio’s, or MAK-Corp, FSOne, CTDP, GSMF, etc.

    Why is it done? you know just as well as I, eye candy is what attracts a lot of players that would commonly not be into that type of game, but the edited shots can make even the avid optimist a fan. Its all about strategic promotion to appeal to the masses. Is it right? not really as it doesn’t show the true quality, is it wrong? I don’t believe so, I feel there should be a mixture throughout development of edited and un-edited shots. But as companies as well as mod groups have to compete against one another, the more eye candy you have, the more better it is perceived by those who do things like skinning, rendering, screenshot taking etc, not to mention those that like having wallpapers of their favourite mod on their desktop etc.

    I understand where you’re coming from though and do agree to a degree with what your saying, but the entire competition between rivals is one of the bigger factors of why companies resort to this style of showcasing, the ol maxim of “Mine is better then yours” stretches far in this business and companies like to acquire as much of the gaming market as they can.

  • Danny

    Petros ill change my bitching when MMG changes its same old habits of being all talk and nothing more. MMG is not famous for mods but its very famous for talking and talking and talking and nothing else, always the same shit, so of course Im going to say the same shit when you do the same shit.

    MMG has been in existence for 5 years, its apparently a massive group, made up of professional programmers (all working for free according to you) making real games according to you. So what is the entire output of MMG in 5 years???

    A grand total of ONE MOD. Thats it one mod that was average at best. And how many mods have been announced in those 5 years? About 20. While you talk and talk and make rubbish up year after year, other proper mod groups are busing producing great products without the hype and controversy that MMG is only good for.

    Your all talk and no action. Just a bunch of pretenders who can make some decent looking models every 3 years. What a joke. RF is dead anyway I dont know why people waste their time with these unprofessional mods when we have iracing now. All professional work not a bunch of amateurs who think they are engineers giving us C class products.

    PS, great to see you finally growing some balls lately and responding to me Petros.

  • http://mak-corp.net Petros_Mak

    Hehehehe, just watch our site news over the next weeks and I’ll show you what MMG’s entire output is.

    I’ve always had balls, I just don’t see the point to respond to an immature child that acts tough behind a monitor but the reality is that you have no life other then living in your bedroom bashing people behind a monitor for being better then you.

    In any case, I have nothing to prove to you or anyone, just watch the news that is coming soon.

  • Danny

    Funny words coming from a pathological liar who spends his life lying and pretending to have strokes and heart attacks for sympathy and attention, not to mention pretending he has an imaginary wife. You cant get sadder than that. Your a laughing stock to anyone with half a brain and common sense petros.

    I will be looking forward to your latest news and im sure it will be hilarious like everything is with your group. Your a bunch of clowns, a comedy act. Con artists have fun in the sun for a while petros but they always go down in the end.

  • Danny

    Good to see your pet monkey stepping in and defending you as he usually does. Such undying love. You have him trained well. :lol:

    See members of virtualr? not matter how much you try to make a troll see the light, it will never happen. Its the same shit with you over and over danny. Why I don’t reply to you? because I don’t give a fuck on what you say, you think because you come online and bash me and the group like all other trolls do for groups they hate, that it will spark some war for you to feel like you are winning.

    The fact is, no one gives a shit what you have to say anymore, in fact, people just wish you would just shut up already and piss off because they don’t care about you. It is a complete waste of my time even responding to you yet again but I am just for pure kicks this time. Quite frankly I don’t give a shit what you think of me or my group, what I give a shit about is running my group and producing more of the work we’re doing not only for the community, but for those we will be announcing about soon.

    You come on here, post all your crap thinking that the people who read your posts really care for what you have to say, where in fact, they wish you would just shut up already and piss off and stop making every article an MMG bash. If you can’t post anything constructive, then don’t post anything at all lest you find yourself removed from certain communities for your own stupidity.

    Danny:What a joke. RF is dead anyway I dont know why people waste their time with these unprofessional mods

    If you persoannly think rF is dead, why do you bother going through all the trouble bitching about it here?

  • Loz

    *Personally

    Edit function needed :P

  • Austin Powers

    Montoya should make a second site called ComedyR.net where you two can post all day :wink:

    We all know you call yourself ‘leader’ of MMG but outside of MMG you dont lead anything, so dont pretend to speak for the rest of the internet you clown. Fact is the majority of the community agree with me, as your antics are not a secret no matter how much you wish they were.

    You say you only give a shit about producing more of the work you have been doing for the community, but Im wondering what work your talking about considering you have produced 1 mod in 5 years. You dont do any work anyway as you have zero modding skills, you cant even zip a file properly, I had to fix it all up when up when you once tried. You just find some poor sod to work on a mod, which is why it takes years, and you spent your time playing fantasy CEO in your bedroom.

    Your quite good at putting up a front on forums like this, and playing innocent which is sadly how you fool so many people with your lies, but well informed people know all your dirty secrets.

  • ForzaBarca88

    Oh what drama. Jerry Springer eat your heart out :roll:

    And Mr FooAtari is spot on, sure they’re fine for promotion but photoshopped previews are about as useful as preview game vids that consist of nothing but cutscenes.

  • msater

    Danny, you calling yourself well informed? LMAO! You’re no more informed with than a monkey with banana up it’s butt.

    I wouldn’t call Mr Brown, Prime Minister of a certain conutry well informed. But he’s definitely more informed than you.

    Now go away, stop buggering people.

  • Mitos

    Nice. Waiting for R28…

  • Juandi Sanchez

    Ohhh poor Danny. You pressed F5 and there’s no Petros Mak’s comentary for you yet? Poor Danny. Search for Enjuto Mojamuto on youtube. He reminds me to you.

    The only thing I edited was the background and some lighting, thats all. All the models and textures that you see in the image is 96% the same.
    For example on the Red Bull and Sauber shot I didn’t even touch anything near the cars, that is purely the same unedited image. The only thing edited is the top and bottom of the image to make your eyes focus to the center.

  • Y E S

    Danny, it’s a pity… How can you think talking in the name of rf community ???
    Do you really think we all think like you ???
    I can tell you a scoop, MMG don’t make mods for you…
    I’ve loved to drive MMG 2007, and i’ll love to drive MMG 2008, even if i have to wait for a long time.

    Do you know why ?
    Because i love F1, because MMG work free and give their time for my pleasure, and because MMG 2007 was for me one of the best mods i had pleasure to drive, and definitely the best 3D models mod i’ve seen.

    I can tell you another scoop… You don’t have any obligation to download it when it will be available.
    But you know, i’m sure you’ll want to try it anyway… Please, be agree with you, don’t download it, and please don’t post any ridiculous posts on MMG news any more, i’m sad to have to read you.

    If you don’t want understand modders give their time for free, go and play iRacing, please.

    I think you should give your time making and sharing something usefull, maybe you’ll understand the only thing modders want is a thanks.

    i apologize for my poor english, and i hope you’ll understand me

  • Steno

    MMG is all talk??? What about the 2007 mod? A high quality mod imo…
    Let MMG be MMG, and be happy that people work so hard in their spare time, so we can play great mods in our spare time!

    The screens look great btw! Looking very much forward to the mod :)

  • JGoenR

    I was starting to lose interest in this mod until I saw new screens. They’re great! Keep up the good work! :grin:

  • Bjorn

    I won’t say I agree with Danny, but far from all he says is trash…

    I’m afraid he knows what he is talking about in some points. With the exception of the thing about rF-community being dead. Na-ah!

  • zand

    MMG and Petros_Mak rule! :grin:

    Keep doing you great job!

  • martymini

    once mmg08 comes out…we judge it…
    in meantime we have other great f1 mods to play!
    no problem!

    If thats true then I very much look forward to this mod. It will easily be the best looking rfactor mod by a huge margin if those screen shots are accurate. I didn’t believe the aging graphics engine was capable of that. I will of course be making direct comparisons with those screen shots to see how the the final product compares.

    Looks amazing… good work ..looking forward to another highquality rfactor mod.

    Yeah most of what Danny says is true, he could word it less aggressively but I do see where he’s coming from. I myself get a laugh everytime Petros comes and posts more rubbish or just appears in general. Like when his “wife” was playing batracer the day he’s admitted to hospital for a heart attack :lol:

  • Bjorn

    Yep… Indeed.

  • PhilSousa

    MMG-2007 was a well done mod. The guys at MMG was more then a pleasure to work with. I am talking about the ones that actually contributed to the hard work load with me, before I left this game.

    Danny I have no beef with you but be careful when your naming MMG. There are a list of good guys on mmg that doesn’t deserve any negative bashing.

    I know most of your beef is with Petros and that I can relate to.

    For the record I would love to work with the same people again, outside of mmg if that day ever comes to.

    I always loved working with Raymound, Koen, Juandi… Forgive me for the rest of u guys that i am forgetting. It has been quite a long time.

    Cheers Mates

  • EAKMotorsports

    The most beautiful modern era f1 cars !!! looking forward for this mod.
