Bruce Leeroy, creator of the Animated Helmet Cam for rFactor, has found another clever use of image-overlays, creating the first real helicopter camera for rFactor.
Even though that’s more of a fun experiment, it might just give other modders and video makers some clever ideas about what to do with the image overlay feature.

Jessica, Darin & Shaun of InsideSimRacing.tv were recently joined by Image Space Incorporated's Gjon Camaj who visited the guys for an interview in an upcoming SRT episode. ISI's head-honcho did not come empty-handed though as Camaj showed off rFactor 2's user interface for the very first time. Below are six screenshots of the interface, showing off what looks like a major improvement over rFactor's much criticised UI-system.Taking a closer look, the screenshots reveal some very interesting details as the task bar gives away the version number used by Camaj for the presentation - 0.783. Also, we´re starting to get an idea on the ...
About a year ago, Team NLC announced a sucessor to their popular VLN 2005 mod for rFactor, planning to bring the 2009 season of Germany's popular racing series to the simulation. For almost twelve months, the team has been quietly working in full force on their massive project and is now able to present us with a very big batch of renders to show off their progress. The renders show twelve different car models sporting various liveries. While some models like the Renault Clio or the Mini Cooper S have been converted, others have been equipped with new parts such as the ...

haha this is brilliant. What a clever idea. Great for showing off a track layout on video. Especially with commentary of how to take the corners etc.. like they do on TV.
As ermax18 said, very creative. Nice.

Indeed a very nice addon for rFactor….
Can you consider releasing it by also adding the option of increasing heigth/inclination AND moving seat forward, so to have better perspective of the track without that iron bar stack right in the middle of the screen?? Just a suggestion to improve its use…
