World Super GT 2 – Mclaren Ingame Previews

RMT has released first in-game previews of their World Super GT 2 mod, showing the brand new Mclaren F1 GTR Longtail model lapping at Montreal.

The work-in-progress model has been put in game temporarily mainly for framerate tests. Even though RMT still hasn’t announced which simulation the mod will be based on, Arnold Wong has confirmed that no GTR Evolution versions of the WSGT mods are planned.

This pretty much narrows the alternatives down to rFactor or its yet unnamed successor.

    the isi engine is pimped till overloading :D

  • Gopher04

    No Evo version, what a waste.. :angry:

  • UncleChuckle

    No kidding Gopher. GTR-Evo is the best sim out there right now, and TWO big mod groups have said they’re not releasing for it.

    It’s not THAT difficult to convert to other sims, especially ones in the Simbin family, so there’s no excuse other than “na na na na na” school playground mentality thinking behind it IMO.

    Releasing for RF is a waste as the AI is pathetic, and there are so many mods that it’ll be flavour of the week and then most likely ignored online. GTR2 is probably the best from a feature perspective, but GTR-Evo has far superior AI, better weather etc… All I can see GTR2 having going for it is a day/night cycle, and to be honest I’d rather see the mods in Evo than a much older sim just so I can race at night.

  • UncleChuckle

    And he should change his name to Arnold Wrong.

  • Serg Funke

    you know that all three games use the isi engine ? in fact that gtr evo does not have day night change .

  • tarnakman

    Stop bashing about these guys. They’re the ones making the mod so they have the rights to release it on the platform they want.
    rfactor is a game made for modding.. so it’s normal that most of the mods are released for it.

  • phil23

    Wow impressive work again :shock:

    It would be good to see these in Evo, but WSGT has got me playing GTR2 again so I’m not going to moan at the modders over it.

  • klaasvh

    What people seem to be forgetting is that it will take at least a year before WSGT 2 is done, probably even longer. Who know’s what the best ISI platform sim will be by then?

    We’re busy converting WSGT1 over to rFactor but it’s going slow simply because most of use lost interest in the V1 cars and rather work on somehting new. A conversion to EVO would slow us down even more.

    What the hell is that to change my name, it’s MY mod, not YOURS.

    + I haven’t say what sim it will be based on.

    =============================================================
    Everyone knows it’s extremely easy to convert the things. We RMT have discussed about Modding on GTRE before internally. The conclusion is that GTRE doesn’t support modding that much. We need to modify tons of things to make a standalone series, we need to hex edit the things, and the most important thing is that, it has a car limitation.

  • UKFireman

    stunning work again however i really hope that this does come to GTR Evo. Evo needs the Mclarens !!

  • six.degrees

    So, how did it run? I’d assume on its own it wasn’t too bad but the problems will start once you get towards a fuller field..

  • zand

    No version for the best sim in the moment?
    Modding for the past?

    The only important thing missing in GTR Evo is the day night change. Everything else is better than GTR2.

    Thank you MMG for modding for GTR Evo. By far, the most intelligent mod team around…

  • klaasvh

    Modding for the past? Th will be a future mod for a future sim.

    Once WSGT2 is pretty much done, which will be around 2010, and Evo is still best we might do it for Evo, but I doubt it will be the best sim then. :wink:

  • six.degrees

    Gotta agree with Klaas and Arnold here… at this time if you’re starting a new mod this is the only way to go. With the time these things take to complete WSGT2 could be one of the first mods released on a new platform. I’ve got a couple of things in the planning phase for whatever this new platform is myself.

    I guess people need to realise that this isn’t going to be out next week, or for a sim that currently exists. So talk of GTR2 vs Evo vs rFactor is pretty pointless.

  • http://www.bsimracing.com Arnold Carter Wong

    exactly, “six.degrees” got our point :happy:

  • Mitos

    By the way, Arnold. Сould U to specify concerning Porsche GT1? Will It be 97th or 98th(Le Mans) year?

  • phil23

    Well who knows, we may have a Lizard based GTR3 by then and that would be something else with WSGT2 in it :happy:

  • Serg Funke

    see you in rfactor2 :wink: RFACTOR FOR LIFE :sd:

  • calvin.f

    the one who insulted Arnold’s name,i warn u here.
    YOU SHULD NOT BE RUDE TO HIM BY PERSONAL INSULT.
    Arnold and WSGT mates share their high quality mod wif free of charge.
    i think they will be hapi to listen ur suggestion but please think,now u benefit frm them.
    if u r not payin for their development,u can choose not to use their mod.
    I require you to apologize for ur rudeness and please show ur manner and respect those who work for us.
    Please mind ur attitude,when u r askin for something.

    I love how people can just so easily choose to be so ungrateful for the work people do.
    If you don’t appreciate it then fine, stay away, but don’t be telling a guy how he should make his own mod.

    Anyway, as for the pics… meh, typical Arnold Wong stuff. Nothing new. Same old brilliant quality, excellent models and crisp sharp liveries. Nothing else to see here ;)

  • phil23

    Quite right F1Racer, it’s like they’ll have to pay for it rather than download it for free :roll:

  • zand

    Just to clarify:

    I have great admiration for all those who take there time and create content for the auto sims, without any remuneration. (I also have created small things for the games since old GP2 to now).

    I just think that does not make sence to create mods for GTR2 or rFactor at the moment, since GTR Evolution is out there and the rfactor 2 is coming.

    Arnold Wong, do what you want, but keep doing it, becouse you do it so well!

    Peace!

    I dunno what all this rubbish about GTR Evo is about, you’d think its a giant leap from any other gmotor2 sim. Wrong, its basically RACE 07 with another version of nordschleife, some extra cars and some little tweaks to improve the game. With most of these “improvements” you can get the same or better results in rFactor or GTR2 anyway, not to mention GTR-E is inherantly a closed platform and therefore a pain in the ass to mod.

    Nice screenies Arnold, although they do look distinctly rFactor-ish :sd:
