This is FVRFactor's representation of the 2024 Australian Gen 3 Supercars. These cars are a 2024 upate to our all new Gen 3 Supercar mod from 2023. Fantsatic scratch built 3D car models from Flash (Jeremy) with physics updates and fresh skins, suits and helmets from Feralarri (Gavin). This year has been a real labour of love and both of us have been very time poor and have struggled with time constraints and life, to which, it is now December and we are only just ready for release for which we apoligise but this is a hobby for both of us so we hope you enjoy it.

The physics have been reviewed from 2023 with some changes to CoG, F/R Roll Centre's, bump stops and the default setup. Engine power is reduced now to approx 85% of 600HP to simulate what is available at the rear wheel as RFactor 2 does not simulate this. The tyres have been totally redone this year using an earlier S397 tyre resized and adjusted in an effort to increase grip without making cars too fast. They take a couple of laps to build pressure before the grip comes up.

We have endeavoured to create new engine sounds but after two months of trials and testing we were not able to come up with anything satisfactory. We are still using 2023 engine sounds but we have attempted to alter these and add some new ambient sounds to try and create a better overall result. Hopefully this is an improvement and any further work in this area would have resulted in it being delayed further which we did not want to do.

The 2024 season has been painted faithfully as of approx Round 1 2024. AI class for main season is 'FVR_V8SC24'. Some of the templates have been updated for 2024 and will be available for you to paint your own body and window versions.

Interiorwise the cars have paintable dash and advertising boards through templates for your use. Also driver suits and helmets are paintable to suit your own livery.

**** Tuning Menu now has limited options, with Position LEDS set permanently on and FFB set for the car. The brake bias is settable in 0.1 or 0.5 increments. The incar dash which conatins most of the race info you would need. In addition there is three other alternate dashes to try as well. We also included two variations on camera eyepoint for driving eg. Triple Screens or Single screen(should be good for VR as well).****

**** FFB can be adjusted in game now for individual cars from the Gear Icon in top right hand corner, under 'Calibrate controls'.****

The diff ratios and tyres are locked for the Australian tracks to mimic the real race requirements. There is a Server Edition (LE) with open diffs and tyre combinations for online racing. Please be mindful these cars run a spool diff which means a fixed axle unlike your normal cars. Therefore you can get extra wear if you are too hard on them and they can tend to try and drive around in a circle at low speed corners. You have to be smooth. The diff in these cars will make them unlike a GT3 car.

There has not been a lot of AI testing done so for those people who single player race, please give constructive feedback if there is any major issues bearing in mind that sometimes it is variations in the track that causes the issue rather than AI itself.
Any issue's painting or with the mod please drop us a comment in discord or FB and we will try to answer when we can.

Please enjoy as we have enjoyed bringing this to you

Please understand that if you find a fault this is a constant Work in Progress, we are only human let us know as we may be able to update it but enjoy it for the short term. We do this for our own enjoyment and hopefully yours along the way. We aren't a big team with only two of us these days so it has been a lot of hard work for the last two years. Paypal donations are always appreciated of course - paypal.me/atFVRFactor

2024 Mod is independent of the previous mods. We built the models from scratch so they aren't perfect but modding is a hobby.

Image Space Incorporated and S397 for taking rFactor 2 over and allowing us the opportunity to be a part of the success of this and it's predecessor rFactor 1.
