I must apologize for my last post, I wasn’t aware of the fact that VLM doesn’t give out any info on progress, how far along they are, what part they are working on at the moment, or how many cars are done and the total amount of them that will be in the mod. I was informed of this recently, and I wasn’t privy to that before. Sorry, it won’t happen again. I just have a comment…..why is there a WIP section for them at RFC, and why do they themselves have a forum for this mod on their site if they never intend to divulge any sort of info on the mod? Isn’t that what a discussion forum on the mod would be for? Sorry if that sounded mean, but it is a very honest question. Thanks, this mod looks AWESOME, but I guess I will have to wait in silence like everyone else.

Is there a status report on this?

Do you guys have a rough estimate on the number of cars for this mod? Do you plan on releasing them all with the mod or will there be service packs?

If the “Junior Team” is working on the Prototype-C mod, what is the full team working on? Just curious.

Just checked VLM forum… most recent post was 2 month ago and it was the admins answer to the question if VLM projects are all supposed to be abandoned. Answer was “all just rumors” – which isn’t what I call a denial. To me it looks like they have joined the stuff and resources from Group5 mod project to that of PTC project and bundeled it to a Lemans 1983 project – and still don’t have sufficient resources to finish that one.

So unless there’ll now be a notable number of additional people joining VLM to finish that mod, we could most likely all relax and abandon hope to see anything released by VLM within the next 2-3 years

Is this mod going to be for rFactor2? The reason I ask this is because with all the new cars to be made on top of whats already been completed(which I would hope would be more then enough for some sort of “Demo”)and the fact that the “Junior” Team is the sole team working on this, and the fact that it’s been a WIP for almost 3 years already, that’s the basis for my first question. Just seems like this mod could be a never ending “WIP” or atleast 3 to 4 more years away…..granted if no more cars were to be added to this point. I had this for Formula One Challenge, and it was beyond words. But, I also noticed for the F1C version, there were service pack updates released every so often, due to the infact large number of cars being created……my question is, why was the service pack idea dropped? If that was still being used, we could of had this mod last year, or earlier. Nonetheless, thanks for the new screenshots, but at this point in time, it’s kinda like a mild form of torture.

LOL! Some guys talk like it should be real

THis one is one of the most ancient forever WIP of rFactor scene. And now almost 3 years later they say that they need crew members…

I’m surprised

Especially by the fact they’re still looking for modders. The making of this mod has started some years back ago already and this news now looks like some rather desperate request for additional help.

The project outline had been THAT enormous right from start that IMO there was little chance to release ANYTHING in time for rF. Kudos for adding even more stuff to the plate nonetheless, though. Would be interesting to know if the mod is now targeted for rF2 or rather rF3 …

*recovers* These screens are absolutely AMAZING. I thought taking on the C Junior cars as well as the Group C cars was a big ask, but VLM have gone and done the entire field including the Group B machines… and they all look fantastic!

Here is the full field of the 1983 24 Hours of Le Mans, which shows off the mammoth task these guys have taken on: http://www.racingsportscars.com/photo/Le_Mans-1983-06-19.html

That are some of the most pornographic screens I have seen here, all dream cars! I dont meet any of the requirements, but I hope lots of skilled people jump onboard. Holy crap.
