Blancpain Endurance Series 2012 mod for rFactor

Ran this for a few hours last night with the guys at GBR. I thought it was a pretty damn good mod.  This mod has lots of cars to choose from, including the McLaren, GTR, Audi R8, BMW Z4, SLS AMG, 458 Italia, Porsche 997, Gallardo and a couple more.

Here is the link to version 1.2. I would recommend you delete your old version completely and put in a fresh install of rFactor.

Mod:

I loaded this using rfactorlite and created a new install for this mod. After loading the mod i was having terrible framerates . So Hawks over at GBR suggested going into the rF Config.exe and choosing DirectX9. By default it was set to auto. Once I changed it to DirectX9 i went from a stuttering 40fps to a smooth 140+fps.

Hawks also posted this nvidia fix, but I did not use this since my issue went away after going to DirectX9.

This has now been converted for rfactor 2 and I must say it is fantastic.

In my opinion the best cars available at the moment.

LINK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!? I demands it!

Even though I doubt my machine will be able to run in in rF2, since I have issues running it in rFactor.

its also available at gbr in the rf2 mods section never :)

 

Edit:  I read some of the comments on the facebook link and it seems alot of people are experiencing bugs....flickering, missing parts etc.  think ill hold off on this till an update and being a rf1 conversion i wasnt too impressed with it, due to the unbalced performance between the cars and that lazy low speed slide drove me mental

A couple of cockpits are a little dodgy with lighting but I havent experienced any bugs yet.

 

EDIT: AI on the DTM tracks are just crazy, like banging their head off a wall constantly lol

Also the latest rf2 update just released seems to be giving people issues with crashing on start up so you might want to avoid this update till its fixed.

Yep, the three critical mods are listed in the official forum release thread, Sears point, National StockCar and the Lexus, if you have them installed uninstall and remove from your packages folder. If you don't have them, work away.
