rFactor

is that rFactor download actually free...or do u still have to buy it before u can play it?...thanks

and is it the full version of it

it's the fulliest of the fullest and FREEEEEEDDDDOOOOOOMMMMMMM...*dead*.

lol :Oo:

Umm, actually I don't think rFactor is free. The full install file mirrored here is free to d/l, but you have to pay online at the rFactor website to activate the copy. It should really be written on the downloads page. I bought it for £25 when it was released, but I dunno how much it is now...

wasn't rFactor a shareware? Well, never really liked the fake GTR look

Heh, no it was just that it was d/l only, but you still had to pay. A bit like LFS, but without being able to use the d/l as a demo before unlocking it.

Imo, what you initially got for your money wasnt really worth it, but the whole idea was to open up the new ISI engine and allow it to be the most mod friendly racing sim ever, and have ISI and fans keep adding tonnes of free content over time - new tracks cars textures etc.

There have been some quality fan made mods like F3, Porsche cup, nascar, various tracks, as well as new ISI made stuff up to now. But recently there's been talk of having payware mods (like flight sims) so modders get more incentive to make quality work. I'm not so sure the whole thing will take off though, it's a bit too 'messy'.

I like the idea of rFactor, but atm I think I prefer the polished quality of the one off tracks and cars made by Simbin/Blimey.
