From the ground up means a new engine. They aren’t even using the newest updated gmotor! I’m sick of buying their mods. I want to buy a new game for once. I’d also like it if they’d stop being lazy about their physics code development as well. I mean jesus I don’t even copy and paste my code like that! They need to stop letting the cars share code. I’ll NEVER look at Simbin the same way again after seeing the outright copy&paste development I see in GTR Evolution.

Race’07 and its addons have the same engine: GMotor. The difference is that apparently, SimBin has put some development into the engine to suit their own wills and make the game look prettier than its predecessors.

That’s unfortunately why you can see so much stealing from those games and content converted to rFactor or GTR2. They all use the same engine.

With the first Lizard PC game, I guess it will be pretty much harder to steal anything from it.

i dont think Race07 GTREvo looks the same as RF and GTR2 its hard to tell what are the differences

of course Racepro looks different because its console game

anyway thank you for the info i didnt know that i hope that what you said is true :] i was living in wondreland :?

RACE Pro is the first Simbin title to use the Lizard engine, no PC title has yet used it. You can easily tell as RACE Pro look very different in terms of lightning and effects while titles like rFactor or GTR Evolution look pretty much alike in terms of graphics.

RACE07 , GTR Evo , STCC ==== LIZARD ENGINE

http://www.simbin.se/main/technology.htm#

LIZARD is simply based on gmotor its just modified and uses similar technology as gmotor i maybe wrong but this is how i undestand this otherwise why i see LIZZARD bilboards in my GTRE and Race07 ?

rFactor, GTR, GTR2, GTL, Race06, Race07, STCC and GTR Evolution all use the ISI Gmotor.

But what would I know? I’ve only been modding the games for 3 years.

Maxs, what have you been smoking? Race Pro for XBOX is on Lizard.

This is still GMotor.

RichardTrange: maybe the interview was made earlier…

I mean, we have WTCC 2006, 2007… where would 2008 have gone?

And moreover, the 2009 season is only starting with Curitiba. Who knows, maybe some cars will join soon the championship ! So it would be hard to start to make a game on a 2009 season when it hasn’t yet started. I mean, it’s not like Formula 1 where things are stable. In WTCC, you often have cars that join during the season, or give up for money reasons…

“- Vi har ett nytt WTCC-spel på gång, för årets säsong.”
=
” We got a new WTCC-Game in the pipeline, containing this years season”

And the article is written 27/2-09 i think it was.

RACE07/GTREVO/STCC uses LIZARD ENGINE

THIS IS LIZARD ENGINE .

But I hope I’m wrong and that we will get a new FIA GT-game based on their Lizard-engine with lots of new features someday.

uhh…

Race – The WTCC Game
Race 07 – The WTCC Game

How about a GTL2? Hands down your best game IMHO. A part 2 with maybe 70s/80s race cars would be awesome.

And that comment about the US only running tracks that go around around around is bullshit. You want to make a game that will appeal to the USA try making it based on a series that runs in the USA… there are a lot to choose from that run road courses. All of your games are based on European series so of course they are going to more appeal in that region.

Also explain to me this… RacePro is supposed to be your big console release. How come most stores in my area either didn’t have it in stock or only had 3-4 copies? How do you even expect to sell games when they are barely available to anyone?

Finally, if your states publisher wants some American “muscle” why don’t you give them some real race cars? I have a feeling American muscle means “srt8 street car”. We have tons of awesome race cars from all years that would make a great game.

We’ve got quite a bit of road racing here – we just chose to make everyone believe that ‘all’ Americans ‘only’ like watching tanks race for 4hrs every Sunday on ovals.

Hey – if they’re going to have a few U.S. tracks, and they’re the same ones as in “that other sim …with the *reallly* good ones”, they’d better make them accurate.
