Niels Heusinkveld GT Car Physics – Video

If you´re a regular VirtualR reader, you have seen Niels Heusinkveld’s physics experiments in rFactor before.

After tackling karts and plenty of off-road stuff before, Niels has now returned to track racing, showing us a lap around Spa Francorchamps in a modern mid-engined GT car, as usual equipped with self-made physics.

    I’m more interested in seeing some Delta Wing action.

    Also, that version of Spa is well… holy balls that is terrible.

  • Marcio

    nothing new

  • Jolit

    Are there no trees in Belgium?

  • ®©i8☺8™

    nice slip-angles…

    take the steering-wheel of off the monitor, and i bet you find a few more tenths in your lap time.

    better immersion.

    …just sayin’

  • Richard Hessels

    steeringwheel is on to show the super low lag he has on the system.
    Read his guide rFactor and 120fps and you can have this low lag too.

  • Clutch Norris

    Awesome, another set of physics we’ll never be able to test because it will never be released in public. You can look but don’t f touch.

  • Pablo Coronel

    Exactly, whats the point of this if we never can use?

  • Clutch Norris

    That was a hot reaction though, i love Niels work.

    Neil, Could you share those pack of physics with the community???? Dont make sense to post this vids without people try it and give some feedback….. or only just try out!!! I would love to taste how it feels in my wheel!!!!!

    Maybe Niels got an ATI as mine and have the same issue for trees !

  • Niels Heusinkveld

    Well pretty much all Spa versions for rFactor are based on the one from GTR2, which isn’t very good (but it has trees).. Then there is a version from GP4 which is quite good but needs a lot of work (holes in the road, wrong kerbs) and there is this one, which also isn’t great but has no holes in the road and somewhat drivable kerbs at some places. Its a case of using the ‘least bad’ one, but if you have a laser scanned Spa for rFactor, do tell! :-)

    A least you could reply to my question…… yes or no and why…..

  • Pablo Coronel

    Sorry if i sound rude, was not intentionally, and have not intention to disrespect, just was my feelings.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=573577320 Sam Sturino

    Please please forgive me, I am not trying to sound like a jerk. But how do these Vids actually make us aware of your physics? I see a decent driver driving, again no disrespect but can we try out these physics?

    Hi Richard do you know where we can find this Guide? I searched Google but no luck?

  • Niels Heusinkveld

    I don’t ask VirtualR to post the video, I guess they find it interesting enough!

    I understand at such a blog you would think you can download it somewhere but as I said often before, that isn’t the case. You can try my ‘work’ in Reiza Studios sims, the Corvette C6 mod for rFactor, and one day perhaps the NSX.

    Physics are my passion, and I make some cars (sometimes for pro customers) and make some videos. If you like to see them you can subscribe to my youtube channel, but unless clearly stated most of the videos are just not about cars you can download / try.

    I am not teasing, I just make cars and some videos for those interested. If you don’t want to watch it knowing you can’t download it, that is fine. If you are annoyed and feel I should release everything for free, then you are not living in the same world as I do.. :-)

    So, if you take the time to edit physics data in files and test then why not (when complete) just release it for a few bucks each download?

    Oh ok sorry mate, I did not realize. Thank you for your answer.. I am interested in you rFactor Setup Guide for FPS rates? is there anyway I can review that?

    What I was thinking.
    I think people rarely contact Montoya with request for showing their work,usually it’s him who decides what to show,

    In some cases it can be unwanted for the modder, sure Montoya means it well, but sometimes a team doesn’t want attention for their work yet to avoid “When?!!!!!???! questions” and sometimes Montoya chooses not the best possible vid which can harm the team…

  • Niels Heusinkveld

    I don’t mind it being posted, but people should know by now that only my Reiza and Siim Annuk cooperation work gets released. :-)

    There are a couple of good Spa versions based on the GTR2 one, but they are either outdated (which isn’t really a bad thing since that new bus stop chicane sucks balls) or they are “private” (I’m talking about 6e66o’s version which he made for the VRRC, but all their stuff got leaked)

    it’s pretty simple really. Make sure v-sync is off. Go in your PLR file and find the max fps line and put -120. That is minus 120, so make sure you use the “-”.

    I think that is it, i might be forgetting another trick like putting Queue size to 0, but the main goal is to use -120 for alternate timing and then make sure you get a constant 120fps. Failing that -60 is the next best choice.

    It’s a blog, osella. It means the admin(s) can post whatever they feel like.

    Which version of Spa is that?

  • Richard Hessels

    On triple screens 60fps with no sync will give quite horrific screen tearing as soon as you do a corner.
    3x worse than on a single screen.
    Most seen when the image basically shifts from left to right on the horizon.

  • Richard Hessels

    It’s either not finished or they just cut all the trees.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000119964258 Tomas Beha

    Who cut down all the trees at SPA ?!? :O

  • Anonymous

    Are you talking CrossFire/SLI? I have triples and while there is some tearing with -60, it’s pretty minimal – I’d rather use -60 setting than v-sync, that’s for sure.

    Okay man, I’m sorry about those who want you to share your upgrades with de rF community. I think they don’t understand about your world. Let’s do business then. So, we interested on your physics. Tell us your price. How much? =D

    NSX IS KING!! Yet I have to suffer from some retarded Project D
    2.3.1 mod with the worst feeling NSX ever! I goto places where I have
    sim raced a NSX before like Nurburgring, and in rFactor I get like,I
    will just say like 15 minute lap times due to unexpected spin outs,
    turns that didnt turn. Turning right and spinning to the left? (wtf is
    up with that anyway?) Not being able to stop, a turn, wiggle wobbling
    down the straight. Tires that just suck beyond anything you could think
    of. Please sir, o I beg you, give us Honda owners a break and let us
    have 1, 1 accurate Honda mod in rFactor. I honestly dont know why Im
    still playing the game anyway, seeing how there is NO good Honda
    representation. There are 2 NSX’s both feel fake. I dont touch F1 so
    thats not in my experience, nor do I like or wish to drive and listen to
    F1′s when I didnt buy, a F1 game.
    I could live completely happy with just a realistic NSX and the Nurburgring and Targa Florino, Transfagarasan , PEYREGROSSE 1.00, and Mt. Arrowsmith. Burly canyons, and the badass MR that I dream about.
    last
    thing, if you do make a NSX mod, please consider making a few of the
    newer models with the inset headlights. And maybe using the sick
    Veilside kit as a alternative body kit. I think people would trip out
    on that.

    Cheers

    Man I get in the 220fps-350fps depending on the mod and track, and still have throughput lag issues. -.-

  • http://twitter.com/AdamantForce Arthur C

    my Vsync sync’s to (if it can, only on certain games 420Hz) so thats 420fps. Plasma baby!
