rF2 | Massive Roadmap - New Cars, Tracks and UI!

Paul Jeffrey

Premium
Studio 397 certainly weren't kidding when they said December still has some surprises in store for rFactor 2 - with the 'December Roadmap' releasing at the same time as several new tracks, new cars, a first stab at the new UI and plenty more besides!

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year so they say, and for sim racers December 2019 this old line is absolutely true! Huge updates for several of the top sims, and this time it is the turn of rFactor 2 to take the spotlight - in quite dramatic fashion too..

The Studio 397 / rFactor 2 Development Roadmap for December:

Before we string up the lights and begin to tell you the Christmas story of our December roadmap, here is the keyhole version for those of you that just can´t wait for Santa: lots of cool stuff you asked for, awesome new series, content surprises #1 to #5, rF2 improvements and the answer to your pressing question “when’s the new UI?” Now that you can see the presents, we promise it’s a lot more exciting when you sit down in your PJ’s and unwrap them one by one. So let’s get busy, shall we (wink)

A quick look out of the window confirms, winter’s here- at least in northern Europe. And that means the soothing sounds of our favorite race car engines have been temporarily drowned out by the incessant “Last Christmas” blaring from seemingly all around. But fear not, we haven’t succumbed to the sugar coating yet and the dev elves have been very busy in the simracing workshop – simracing is not just a season!

2019 - What a Year!

Let´s start with a quick roundup of the year. The studio was running on full throttle, and we were super proud to introduce iconic racetracks like Le Mans or Nürburgring to you. Great cars such as new GT3s, Cup cars and a full lineup of new Tatuus Open Wheelers seriously tempted even us to stop working for a moment and just get in there and race all of that awesome content!

While much of the team’s development focused on the UI and the upcoming competition system, 2019 also saw rFactor 2 show off new content at many events and in lots of different competitions, further highlighting our dedication to competitive racing simulation: from our endurance events like Sebring 12h and the rF24h at Le Mans (with a combined prize pool of over 20.000 Euro just in those races), to tournaments and competitions such as World’s Fastest Gamer, A1 e-sports league, ESL Mapfre Racing Series, and McLaren Shadow.

Clearly, investing your training time in rFactor 2 to become one of the fastest drivers in the world really paid off this year, not to mention the several thousand people who watched rFactor 2 esports live! Supporting grassroots and entry level racing (more on that later) will always be a core focus for us, but for 2020 our goal is to increase top-notch rFactor 2 events and tournaments to provide more regular, exciting broadcasts . This year, we celebrate that rFactor 2 was supported in many leagues and events. Next year, we promise to continue our work on creating “more things to race in!”

2020 - A Glimpse of the Future

There’s no slowing down for the turn of the year (get it???) – 2020 will be full speed ahead. Watch out for traffic signs on the winding road that is the upcoming year: Ratings ahead!, Daily races in 100m!, Slow down, ladder! and much more. You probably guessed it already, we are subtly hinting at the competition system.

But as we move onto the next level of integrating our competition system into the UI, we are equally as proud to announce one of our bigger championships hitting in 2020: the rFactor 2 Major Series, featuring 4 major endurance events throughout the year, bringing you the excitement of multi-class racing in a team environment. Different tracks at each event, adjusted classes and hours of exciting racing action is yours coming up. Specific teams, such as the top teams in class from VEC, will get direct invites prior to those events. Everyone else will be able to qualify per event. While those major series races will be partly “stand-alone,” like this year’s Sebring and Le Mans, there will be overall standings across the entire season, rewarding teams that are constantly bringing home points. Our goal is to ensure every endurance racing lover out there has a chance to get a spot in this exciting event in 2020. More details are under the hood, which we’ll reveal when the time comes.

Winter Sale

Nothing brings on the Christmas cheer like our winter sale! With rad discounts across much of our content and rFactor 2 at a tinsel-topped 50% off!

Audi R8 GT3 2019

We see you peeping through the door! You’ve been good all year (you have, haven’t you?!) and you just can´t wait any more, so here’s your present*!

As successful as the previous model has been in sprint and endurance GT racing, the German premium manufacturer presented the 3rd generation of its GT3-powerhouse at the end of 2018.

Paris played host back then for the first outing of the new Audi R8 GT3 LMS Evo and now you can try to master this rocket in rFactor 2 as the newest addition to our already big GT3 grid.

*The 2019 model is free for every one who already owns the previous Audi R8 GT3- Merry Christmas!

With a revised body, including a new front-end with bigger dive planes, changes to the rear wing size, and profile and other modifications (which resulted in a new rev limit, now at 8600 rpm in 6th gear), this knife is sharpened to the max and ready for another season of racing.

Cote d´Azur

Between the beautiful sea, regal casinos and the lifestyle of the fast and famous, it´s up to you to carve your name into the tarmac as a winner of this challenging street circuit! We hear it´s pretty cool to win three epic races in a race career, with two of them being in Indianapolis and Le Mans–tracks you can already find in rFactor2–let us introduce you to an amazing looking piece of track along the Cote d´Azur. To make sure you know where to travel for your next holidays, we even named the Circuit accordingly. You’re welcome (wink)

As your engine echoes through the apartment canyons (which probably cost more than an entire GT3 season), you downshift to 2nd gear, your eyes locked onto the tight apex right in front of a stunning harbour scene (eyes on the apex!!), the road twists and turns like a roller coaster. The backdrop of this holiday paradise will keep distracting you as you approach the last hairpin, separating you from reaching the crown. Sounds cool? It is, and it’s your chance to experience right now!

You can grab this fresh circuit in the Steam Item Store

Tatuus TRS FT-60

This Christmas, we will be releasing an update to the awesome Tatuus TRS FT-60. The car is used predominantly in the Toyota Racing Series, which is a proving ground for emerging talent in the open-wheeler season.

We’re releasing an update to the Tatuus pack! After further evaluating the real car performance, we have updated small things on the F4 and F3 cars. On top of that, we have even added something new! The FT50 was already part of this pack, but now we also have the FT60. This F3 is putting down 290 bhp exclusively on the real roads of New Zealand in January and February of 2020. We again worked closely with Engineering Consult and Toyota Gazoo New Zealand on the car, but this time we also created five amazing tracks, all of which will be released completely for free in the workshop: Highlands, Teretonga, Pukekohe, Manfeild and Hampton Downs. We will open a server for any competitor in the real series to set a benchmark time and let our online racers have a go at beating them.

BMW M2 Clubsport

ust in case the sliding rear wasn’t enough for you yet and you feel like you need some more POWAAA for more angle, we just got the right update for you. From now on, you can not only dive into your future race career with the BMW M2 CS Cup, you can also enjoy the BMW M2 Clubsport, the 450 HP street monster. Live your “Touristenfahrten” dreams with this Bavarian masterpiece and tear up the tarmac whilst you look cool in every corner!

Le Mans Update

Le Mans has been updated to make use of all of the latest graphical developments. This includes upgrading all PBR materials, as well as a complete foliage material update and more. All of this has it looking better than ever before.

rF2 - Le Mans Update 2.jpg


KartSim Track Pack

After releasing the brand new track and our updates for Le Mans, we’re still not done releasing tracks. That’s right! It might have gone silent around KartSim for a while, but that doesn’t mean that nothing’s happening behind the scenes. For PFI we have updated the curbs and the track colour scheme, graphics and shaders, as well as roadside advertising. We also updated the AI and advertising for Buckmore and Glan Y Gors.

On top of that, we have three brand new tracks from the European karting scene!

Adria
Alongside the Adria International Raceway lies the Adria Karting Raceway, situated in beautiful Italy, just an hour south of Venice. Built in 2014, it is one of the most modern kart tracks, and hosts many international karting events. The track itself sports a nice looking combination of concrete and colored run-off areas and is just over 1.3 kilometers long.

Kristianstad
Located in the south of Sweden is the Kristianstad karting circuit, a 1.2 kilometer long track that was repaved and upgraded to meet the demands of a CIK grade-A circuit in 2012. The track has 16 corners, two chicanes, and a level difference of 6 meters vertically.

Alahärmä
The Alaharma circuit, sometimes also called the Mika Salo Circuit as it was designed by the former racing driver of the same name, is one of the most beautiful outdoor karting tracks. Located in Finland in the beautiful town of Alahärmä on the banks of the river Lapuanjoki, the 1 kilometer long course winds down the river and has several corners that challenge even the most experienced drivers.

Zandvoort Update

Circuit Zandvoort got a small update, with some fixes and the inclusion of the 2020 GP banner near the end of the main straight. We wanted to make sure the final version of this layout was current. As you are probably aware, the track is currently undergoing changes. Expect more news about those early next year!

Graphic Improvements

This release marks the 3rd major instalment of our PBR revamp of the graphics engine. Last winter, we introduced PBR to vehicles via a new car paint material system, and in the summer we released Le Mans, our first track to make use of the technology. This winter, we bring the next step in the evolution of the environment shaders.

The major feature of this release is the introduction of pre-processor defines for shaders. This means we now can have a handful of shaders with many configurable options. We can enable and disable maps, configure which UV each map uses and change large parts of the logic carried out by the shader on a per material basis. This allows artists much greater freedom to achieve the results they are looking for.

As a result, we’ve added various tweaks and improvements to the full suite of PBR shaders, improving our solutions for Terrain, Road, Foliage and more.

On Roads and Curbs it is possible to fully configure the strength and full PBR profile of Dust, Marble and Groove effects as well as controlling the impact of detail maps across the road. It is possible to pre-bake wear into the road, allowing for a more natural feeling “green” road with subtle variations. It’s all real road compatible too, dusty parts of the road will clear off as vehicles drive over it!

The terrain shader is now more powerful, allowing more maps to be blended and the option to use a “splatter” map input in addition to vertex colour, as was used in the past to control the blending. Distant shadows can be pre-baked, and we have added translucency options to give an improved low light look. This all allows for more natural blending patterns and adds more depth to the scene.

We’ve taken the time to improve billboard lighting on foliage, adding more depth to trees, as well as giving a silhouette glow to them as the sun goes down.

Finally, a complex blend shader gives us the ability to blend different materials together. This is put to use across the scene Gravel Traps to Advertisement hoardings. For example on Gravel Traps we can input two sets of maps, one for the fine pebble details, and a second to achieve the raked pattern. These blend together to add more depth and allow the lighting to be more accurate. Advertisements can be setup with profiles, so a single albedo map with the sponsor logos can be used across all kinds of different surfaces whilst being able to configure a unique profile for each surface.

In terms of lighting, we have taken some small steps here after the preliminary results of the lighting review. The whole pipeline has been adjusted to work with real life albedo values, which meant existing content had to be completely reworked from the assets side. We have also addressed some issues with the direct light and ambient light balance.

All that said, there’s still much work to do. We intend to complete our lighting review in the new year, and also look at improving the PostFX.

Finally, a common question we receive is when will we offer modder support. This is a very important subject, and we want to offer that support as soon as we can. When we roll out modder support, we wish to have proper documentation and be sure that we are not going to make wholesale changes to the way things are setup shortly afterwards. As such, we expect that modder support will not come before the next stage of the graphics pipeline development is complete. As there is still a large chance that things maybe significantly re-balanced and cause major work to content already making use of these developments.

Public Beta of New UI

Rfactor 2 has always deserved a real ecosystem to showcase its core attributes. A place that is minimal without being sparse, and useful and intuitive without being cluttered. It might sound somewhat abstract, but our vision of a ‘UI’ has always been the visual representation and feel of ‘simulation’. Essentially, we’ve created a building block that has the flexibility to accommodate any new features that will come. Since taking over the development from ISI back in 2016, we immediately redefined our graphical identity. From that point on we continued to further redefine rFactor 2 in many other ways, bringing in great “triple-A” cars and tracks, overhauling the graphic engine, and improving on and adding new features all along the way…

But our starting point was always ‘the new UI.’ It served as a basis for the overall design charter – we knew right away that how rFactor 2 is perceived depends heavily on how well it visually brings across its true potential and the possibilities it contains. We put great care and effort into making sure ‘your sim’ shows in the best light.

So a public beta is not the first step, we are well on our way already, but it’s the first time it sees start lights and, more importantly, it’s a preview of more exciting things to come!

In this first beta phase, we’ll be looking at getting your feedback and ideas, so please do post in our forum thread here

To access the new UI you will need to subscribe to a special branch on Steam – here’s how to do that;

Step one
Right click on rFactor 2 in your Steam Library and go to Properties

Step Two
Click on the tab at the top of the window ‘Betas‘ and from the drop down select ‘Public-Beta‘

Now in the background rFactor 2 will now load the Public Beta branch, it make take a little while first time!

Sim Formula 2020

After no fewer than ten 15 min races, thrilling starts, a pile up in T1 and a change of format we have five winners already invited to the InterClassics event in mid-January!

Well known simracers: Risto Kappet, Jeremy Bouteloup, Hany Alsabti, Zbigniew Siara and finally Jarl Teien will be fighting on track for a prize-pool of € 10.000 + everyone is already a winner of Sprint pedals from Heusinkveld. The race will be streamed from location, and Rene Hoogterp will be calling all the action there.

InterClassics will open January 16th at 12:00, where you are able to give it a go – and work to become the fastest on track. Friday you can meet the pros and get some precious tips and tricks. Saturday you set your best lap and then finally Sunday you can see the finalists duke it out from 13:00 CET.

Meet us there!

I honestly thought Circuit d'Azure was the actual official name of the circuit (just like Circuit de La Sarthe is the actual name of the Le Mans circuit, but barely anybody calls it that) and the whole thing was official. Kind of a bummer to sell an unofficial track for almost 10 euro, in that case :/
So if the text for the track name, which you don't see while racing, said Monaco then you'd be fine with the price? :O_o: It is an official, laser scanned track for €9. That's about as inexpensive of a laser scanned track that I've ever seen in sim racing. If they would have actually licensed the name Monaco with the city, Monaco automobile club and F1 the price of the track would be dramatically higher. Then people would complain about the price. Some people literally can not be pleased.
 
RF2 has got some stiff competition in the last week. RRE, is currently, my go to sim. FFB since the last update, sounds, damage etc are making it a solid package of late, when previously it remained unplayed.

I still applaud S397 for their accomplishments in 2019.
Agreed. R3E became a serious contender now. Very polished, great content, superb sound and everything from physics to FFB to UI is just solid. I still love rF2 when it comes to driving experience but some things (such as unfinished cockpits for instance) leave a lot to be desired.

I keep my fingers crossed for the sim and hope to see it flourish, but S397 needs to keep plowing away.
 
I dont get why in your eyes HE is the asshole here, while he states just his opinion.
I´m reading so much complains about this and that. He is right: Most of them guys here prob got RF2 on sale for a cent or so and keep complaining that S397 charge money for their work. On the other hand, nobody here would work for free. So what is this here, a trolling contest?
My gosh, is 8 or 9 bucks really that intense to the people who give the same amount of money to fast food and coffee everyday? Go the **** one time a week less to the people who poison you - McD or BK or KFC or wtf - and you saved more then ten bucks. And you dont eat ****. It´s so easy, you see.


OK so is it wrong to purchase rfactor2 in the sale?#Does it make me a lesser customer that they drop the price to £12 EVERY time steam has a sale?

So i am the mug? For getting it cheaper?..........

They are not forced to drop 50% every steam sale are they?
 
OK, I waited to comment assuming S397 would be awake. The searching for favourite servers bug at every turn in the new UI cannot be that hard to patch and is driving everyone trying to use the new UI crazy in the meantime. A hotfix should have been released within minutes or hours of the realization that the UI was not properly tested before release. Where is it?

Overall, the new UI is OK given that it attempts so little. All the most annoying "features" of the old UI (identified over many years) are still there unaddressed.

My personal pet peeve, since I just wanted to try out the new tracks--where is the car-specific FFB strength setting? I am using a Tatuus that needs a wee bit less FFB and I cannot for the life of me find where that settings is now hidden.

Second, I subscribed to the new Buddh track in the Workshop--a very nice job! When looking through the track list to select it, I discovered that I have an older version installed (1.3) along with the new one (2.0). How does one get rid of the old one when one is only subscribed to a single track in the Workshop. If the old one was installed in the old UI as a stand-alone mod, does one have to revert back to the old UI to get rid of it? That sure sounds like fun...

Sadly, the endless frustration of rF2 continues, just in a slightly modified form :(

You know what the problem with your argument, and this kind of argument in general, is? It assumes everyone spends 10 bucks daily on overpriced fast food or coffee.

It's like the whole thing about "we pay thousands of bucks for hardware, and complain about 10 bucks for a track" again. It's a fallacy.

Also, the point isn't about the absolute price tag, about the number itself. It is about the relative one, the subjective one. And it's perfectly OK to simply disagree with someone else's subjective perception of value of some abritrary item. You think it's a fair price for an unofficial track? Well more power to you, sir! It's awesome people have different opinions on stuff! That's how discussion works, and that's also how improvement and progress works.

(And BTW, to everyone else, I'm sorry that I steered the discussion towards pricing *again*, as if that's something that needs to be endlessly discussed again. I should've known better to avoid the fairly innocently meant remark completely, it's not like I don't know how that always goes. But, I mean...it kinda feels like tapdancing in a minefield sometimes when trying to express some sort of opinion on the internet - there's so many things and topics you need to completely avoid...)

I'm sorry, as far as I'm concerned RRE is not anywhere near what I'd would call "on par" with RF2 for FFB, not in a million miles. RRE is definitely catching but still has a long way to go to be the king.

My personal opinion only.

As for the UI, I quite like it but would like some scaling function to take down the size of the MASSIVE fonts.

rF2 is by far my favorite driving experience and I applaud all of the hard work S397 has put in updating the game. The latest content is fantastic.

The amount of frustration I experience to get everything running/feeling good whenever I switch cars or tracks is more than I can bear sometimes.

I honestly wish S397 would dump this mess that they've inherited and build rF3 from scratch. Seems simpler than trying to fix a game with inconsistent everything.

the car specific ffb setting is located on the calibrate screen, which is accessed using the gear icon on the top right of the screen when in session...also packages may be installed/uninstalled on the content tab - there is a button marked "packages"
 
I don't really like the way things are sold on their item store. If you go to the Monaco store item, you don't see anything about what you are about to purchase. No screenshots, no video, no nothing. I wonder what nighttime is like? Why can't they just use normal DLC feature whereby you can add to your wishlist, see screenshots / videos, have DLC specific discussion etc.

Having seen a couple of videos of the new Monaco, I must admit the modelling looks great, but the texturing is the usual rf2 very flat pastel look. No sun glint off barriers or other shiny surfaces. The tarmac texture looks very bland and lacks any detail. I've been to Monaco a few times... walked the track.. The tarmac isn't just some very flat grey pastel look like it appears in this sale item version. Then again, I guess it's "not Monaco" :)

Have they by any chance updated the VR flag yet so you can tune Steam VR settings specific for rf2?
 
I have no interest in faffing with betas to get them working properly.
I honestly had no idea we were still selecting BETAS in the STEAM client to get the latest content.
Thought that program was over and done with long time ago.
I think last time I looked, mine was set to keep game up to date and ignore all betas.

The beta is for the UI, not the latest content. Since the UI release literally IS a beta, what could make more sense than putting it in the Steam betas tab? This is how beta testing works on other big platforms like Windows, you enroll to the beta branch and then get automatically delivered all updates for that branch. Couldn't be more convenient.

Everything works fine for me, ui is great, don't no what you lot are on about, guess you were expect no clicks, and it to be telepathic.
Seriously if the ui is a game breaker, move on, go play something else, if the cheap dlc is to much, go play something else, because we know you won't get a job to pay for it, so sick of the same folks wanting everything for free, and expecting everything to be 100% but won't even support the devs.
It's really sad, there's so many games to play, but the same ol same old are here spitting their dummys out, and probably don't even play the game.
Move on life is too short, you probably bought rf2 on sale, so it was basically free.

You complain about the complainers repeating themselves, but by doing so you also repeat yourself. This is the same rant you post every time in rF2 forum, i.e. that people who don't like pricing of rF2 DLC's should "get a job".

The truth is that the market decides what is the correct pricing. Almost nobody in here is not able to afford a nine dollar DLC, don't be silly. Probably most of us here are old time rF2 fans, in their 30's and not exactly living on the dole. But just like with any product, if there are competitors that offer their products for cheaper, sometimes (actually nearly always) the cheaper product wins if it can offer nearly the same experience. So in the large picture, pricing of DLC's is extremely relevant and needs to be in line with competition to offer a balance so that S397 gets paid, but equally importantly, that rF2 will attract new people and not just us old ducks.
 
Just a piece of plain text that got overlooked.
The problem is that the text got overlooked the past two years and there are a lot of other things that got overlooked in this first UI reveal. Unfortunately, it's been a trend with S397 releases and one of the reasons I chose not to participate in the beta this time around. Their track record for avoiding issues with releases is poor. I've got patience, but not everyone does.
 
Several pages back, someone asked why some got the new Audi for free, while others had to pay for it. The free part is for users who have already purchased the GT3 pack with the 2018 Audi included. Those users get the 2020 Evo for free. I'm not sure if NEW purchasers of the GT3 Challengers pack get both Audis automatically.
 
bla, bla, bla more paid content and some free unknow tracks, no a single oficial car for free wOw iam shock.

thank you kunos for keep improve assetto corsa competizione, the 5 points tyre model AMAZING
