rFactor Conversion

[dangar]

Hello everybody,

Here it is the main repository I know on rFactor Free Tracks:

http://www.rfactorcentral.com/list.cfm?cat=Tracks

You can select that you consider **the best** for you, tell me which, and I will convert the 3 best ones **for free** for you all.

This is because I'm working (hard) on an utility that tries to convert, more or less automatically, an rFactor Track to a fully usable Racer Track. Kinda of a test, you know.

Best Regards!

Be careful, you need the permission of the authors of the tracks if you want to release the tracks for everybody!

Thanks dangar, let me put my vote for at least one track, Castle Road v2 2.00

We will be quite careful with this...

Please, don't forget "No-CG" users...

He...only one track.... Nordschleife!

Which version?
There are a lot of versions inside rFactor Central...

Cannonball Run!

In regards which Nordschleife track should be done, this one would probably do well:

Also, for the third track, my last suggestion would be:
http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=70 Charade


Thanks, dangar..

@OP: you have permissions to do these conversions?

@OP: you have permissions to do these conversions?

Well, finally NOT... Because I had permission for two tracks, BUT apparently, they were INAUTHORIZED CONVERSIONS from the original ones (which was created for GTL).

But now, after some e-mails, these originals seem not to be really originals, as they were converted previosuly from GTR (!).

So, in this very moment I do not have permission because I don't even know who was the original creator O_O.

Just convert them but release them elsewhere

The rules need to be adhered to here, but I guess the track originates from a commercial one somewhere along the line, so I'd not worry too much if the track is from a 5yr old game. They will be selling it for £1 these days in bargain bins so not like anyone is gonna lose out a great deal if you convert it for Racer

Ie, the old Ring versions up until a few years ago were all based off the GPL one, yet were distributed everywhere, hmmmmm...
