RELEASE - Targa Florio 1.0

2011-07-10T10:19:00.007+02:00

******************Targa Florio - GPL conversion for rFactor*******************

*******Thanks to Ginetto and his team for creating this great GPL track*******
************and for allowing us to convert it to our favorite sim.************
*************Please read GPL.txt for the original track credits.**************

During our conversion of the Targa Florio we encountered some significant bugs,
as we went along pushing the limits of ISI's engine. (read the FAQ for more info)

Because of this, we were going to hold off the release and wait for rF2.
But after much consideration we decided (with Ginetto's blessing)
to release the track 'as is' for you guys to enjoy in rF.

We hope you like it!

If you want to convert the track to another platform,
please contact us on our forum

Targa Florio conversion team.

Hi all,

to all of you waiting for updates on this blog,
you need to know that at the moment i dont have much time to do any new screenshots, videos or modding work.

Im positive that will change again,
but for now dont expect much posts here.

Having said that,
you probably saw some of my work across the web, without knowing it was mine,
and you will most likely see more of it in the future ;)

Keep racing!

2010-10-20T21:09:00.001+02:00

In 2005 the team around Sabine Schmitz and Klaus Abbelen had it's first races with a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup. Over the years this car was further developed step-by-step to gain nearly the same perfomance like the original RSR's. Today this car has achieved impressive 30.000km at the most pretentious permanent track around the world and was one of the fastest independent-team-cars in the 2009 championship.

2010-10-04T18:56:00.001+02:00

After spending quite some time finding the ideal position now the wheel and the pedal mount got attached.

The wheel lies on some cut out pieces of rubber in order to have the right angle.
Very simple solution but work just perfectly.

Next step will be mounting the Shifter.

Can´t wait until the missing PC parts and the TV arrives :)

2010-09-29T13:04:00.004+02:00

Allright,
so i decided to build a new racing rig.
I will try and blog about the progress as much as i can.

Some of the components that will be used:
new pc (i7 950 @ 3.06 Ghz, 6 GB RAM, GTX460 2gb vram)
40" tv (Samsung LE40B650)
G25 wheel and pedals
Leather seat
DIY cockpit (wood)

Here´s a first sketch,
very professional, i know :)

Some pictures of construction materials and the place where it will be standing:

Im going to use this seat for now
(maybe it will replaced with a proper race seat in the future)

As pointed out by a thoughtful Simscreens reader one of my Screenshots was printed in german Magazin "Speedweek".
Of course they didnt ask me, if they could use it.
They even managed to put the wrong source for the picture (sky logo?!).

This is one of the reasons i put watermarks on my latest work.

2010-04-07T16:09:00.006+02:00

People often wonder how i get these realistic angles in my driving videos and ask me what monitor im using, and how it is positioned in relation to the wheel.

So here are some pictures of my humble Cockpit.

Monitor is a Samsung T260HD 26"
Wheel is a Logitech G25

This is how i position my camcorder when recording the videos.

As you can see it´s all about the right perspective =)
