Just how many online sim mods are out there now?
We were moaning the dilution of the sim community a few days ago in our
little corner of it (GPL FV) and we were trying to count all the "current" sims and their mods. Forget about any of the previous generations before the current ones (like NR3), or mods that have been superseeded by later versions of the same mod ie GTP 1.0 vs GTP 1.1 but just the current crop: I count 9 variations on NR2003: Busch, Truck, Iroc,TPTCC,PWF transam,Ferrari P330,AD67,GTP,Areo88? I'm sure I'm missing some. Not to mention 1st/iracing. GPL has 3 distinct classes before GEM added FD, FV and F? Multiply that by F65 and soon F69 and maybe even CanAm LFS has what 8 -10 distinct types of cars? GT Legends has half a dozen? Netkar? And I frankly never did undstand the parentage (incest?) amongst: rfactor, GTR, F1C but they likely adds a LOT more, and then there's online rally games (seems like an oxymorn to me). What am I forgetting? Don't get me wrong, I'm greatfull to all the people who released these tittles and mods, and I'm not suggesting a monopoly or that everybody should switch to <insert biased pick here> but maybe we've got too much of a good thing? No wonder it's hard to find a decent size grid in your particular favourite anymore. End rant. |

I have the Modified beta (hope it gets completed as I love that series), and the Late Model mod. Both are interesting to play around with. My best experience with the latter has been with BristolBR. The down side is if you run the full field, your fps will probably suffer. -Will |

Well, I want to add to the NR03 list of mods, hehehe
there is a mod for "late models" and then 2 open wheels mods, 1 is 'indy/f1' ish cars, plus I see at OWR they have Sprint cars... Grin! but F1RST has once again attacked with the lawyers... you'd think they need the Cash for developement, but No, they rather funnel the goddam money into the lawyers pockets... I shoulda been a lawyer, jeebus. mcewena enlightened us with: > We were moaning the dilution of the sim community a few days ago in > our little corner of it (GPL FV) and we were trying to count all the > "current" sims and their mods.

@trnddc03: > Mod List - ( noT complete ) > PWF - Bgn > PWF - CTS > PWF - IROC > PWF - TPTCC > AD67 One slight correction The last PWF mod should be called the TA or T/A mod. The TPTCC mod was made not by PWF but by theUSPITS.com. Both shared the same Papyrus TA physics but had different graphics, sounds, and pov. The AD67 mod was a replacement for the 330 mod which had unique physics but due to FirstRAcing/iRacing, the new version had to make due with the same TA physics. dave henrie |
