Ok, guy´s here´s the latest Update of the F1-75 LE mod for you, the V.0.99 and this is the version that is going to be used for the rest of the season.
It has been an awful lot of work and I´ve put in about 8 to 12 hours a day the last 2 weeks to get this one ready for the League and it court me by surprise (to say the least) to find out the the two first races actually where Official as I believed that I had a few more day left to finish the work on this Update.
And on top of that I don´t know how many of my nowadays much more stringent Quality Test´s that this mod has failed now and just gone Tits Up instead, but it´s been a lot of them, for sure as Filippe Massa would have said.
Anyways, it has finally passed them all with flying colors now and it´s about time to get this one released so you´ll get to drive it a couple of days before the next League Race @ Zolder75
Release Notes F1-75 LE V.0.99 by JC.Case in association with BlackMagic
***********************************************************************************************
GRAPHICS:
* All cars have working and aligned mirrors made by BM
* New steering wheels in all cars.
* Cockpits have been shaded in all cars.
* Static shadows have been added to all cars.
* New tires with Cube lightning added to all cars made by BM.
* New gauges and cockpit panels in the McLaren M23´s
* New gauges needles including a tell-tail for all cars
* New dashboards with working gauges for the Tyrrell´s T006 and the P34
* New transparent windscreens to the Williams and the Shadow´s cars thanks to BM
* The windscreen brackets that was transparent on the Parnelli and the Shadow´s is visibly now thanks to BM
* The Lotus drivers helmet´s positions have been corrected
* Mario Andretti´s helmet position has also been corrected
* A PaceCar, a BMW SLC has been added by BM at my request
Most of these Graphics Updates have been made by BlackMagic or by me by advice from him, who´s involvement in the F1-75 Project(s) really have made a change for the better and I can´t thank him enough for that.
It´s been a real pleasure for me to get to know this most helpful and kind man who has shared his wisdom with me, and by doing so has helped me to improve the two F1-75 mods to a development stage that I to be honest never thought that they would be able to reach.

----------------
PHYSICS CHANGES:
None on the cars.
* The Start temperature on the Tires have been raised which makes a huge difference along with the changes to the default setup for the cars handling on the first laps.
-------------
DEFAULT SETUP:
* Default Steering Lock has been set to 18 degrees.
* Default Brake Bias has been adjusted to 57.5 per cent (%) on the front.
* Default fuel loads have been lowered to 11.9 gallon. ex 23 laps @ Kya.
* Default Tires pressures has been lowered a bit to let the tires contact patch to heat up more evenly.
* The cars have been raised 0.2 cm to the rear.
* I´ve changed rear camber settings to -0.2
These two last changes to the default setup have been made to make the cars easier to handle. And those actually makes a huge difference along with the raised Start temperature on the Tires for the cars handling on the first laps.
I went the "wrong" way with the default setup in the previous version of this mod (V.0.98b), when I listened to the ones that thought that the default setup was a bit too understeery and wanted to have that adjusted.
But after hearing that some of, let´s say the "less accomplished" drivers thought that the cars where pretty hard to drive I´ve amended that by doing these changes to the default setup.
As I say in the Readme, "The cars are very nice to drive now, but they are not meant to be easy to drive though (it´s Formula 1 cars ffs)", but the default setup should be made to make them as easy to drive as possible and not to suit already skilled drivers preferences IMO, as this mod is meant for everyone regardless of their skills.
These are not changes to the cars physics though, just to their default setup which means that the cars will feel and behave exactly as before on warm tires when you use your own setups.
-------------
SETUP WINDOW:
* Added possibility to raise the cars a bit more.
* Brake Pressure adjustment has been set to 80 - 120 per cent (%).
* The Power / Coast diff settings have been narrowed down a bit. They´re still adjustably in 0.5 steps though, but between 30 per cent (%) to 85 per cent (%) now.
* Preload and Pump has been locked.
-------------
UPGRADES:
* Added Tire Squeal Volume Option with 3 alternative settings.
* Added 0.01s to the Shifter Delays to the Normal and Advanced option.
I noticed that I reached max revs about 40 meters too early on the back straight @ Zolder75 when I was using the paddles compared to when I use my shifter and the Toe-Heel technique. The same thing happened at all other tracks too which means that the Shifter Delays was set to low and that´s the reason why I´ve raised them by 0.01s.
They´re still a bit too low as I still reach max revs to early when I use the paddles, but I prefer that to the opposite as the Shifter Delays are meant to simulate the time it takes to shift IRL, and not to give the paddle shift drivers a disadvantage IMO.
-------------
KNOWN ISSUES:
There aren´t any to my knowledge other then that the Talent Files needs to be Updated
and that some minor graphics work ought to be done too before a V.1.0 release
BlackMagic has used his wisdom to cure ALL the known issues that this mod has been
plagued with, which means everything from fixing the new mirrors to get the cars and
their graphics to work both Off and On Line, and we all (and especially me) owe him a
lot for that.
-------------
INSTALLATION:
Full Install: For those of you that dont have the F1-75 V.0.98b LE installed.
This is a Stand Alone Mod and it will NOT overwrite any of your previous files or change any of your previous settings, except for your F1-75 Sound Folder if you got that mod installed.
These Sound files are exactly the same though so there´s no damage done by that.

UserData) into your regular rFactor directory (usually found here: C:\Program Files\rFactor).
-------------
The Update: For those of you that already has the F1-75 V.0.98b LE Installed
Attention!
YOU WILL HAVE TO REMOVE YOUR OLD F1-75_LE VEHICLE FOLDER BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS UPDATE!
(Usually found here: C:\Program Files\rFactor\GameData\Vehicles)
Unpack and drop the three (3) folders (GameData, rFm and UserData) into your regular rFactor directory and let them over write your old files. (Usually found here: C:\Program Files\rFactor).

Assuming I have installed LE v.0.99 correctly why has the pump and pre-load been locked and he minimum values for power and coast been set to 30 ?
Must add that we appreciate all the work that goes into a mod.

Because the Developer have listened to Feedback from experienced drivers that told him that this Mod previous Diff Settings Window made it vulnerably to exploitation of a rFactor Diff Settings Flaw that has more or less stopped a couple great Mods from being used On Line anymore and we don´t want that to happen to this mod too.
Edit: Spelling, use of wrong word.

Silly season is up and about and there´s a lot of rumors that Mcl is going to sign a new Brazilian driver for the next season, although Mcl Team Manager Teddy Mayer is vehemently denying that.
"I´ve no idea on how and why this rumor has popped up, it´s not true. We´re very happy with the performance of Emerson during the last season even if he could not defend his Championship and we see no reason to end our cooperation."
But JC Network has got hold of these pictures from a secret testing session and our sources are telling us that the lap times set by Tavares was very competitive, and that he actually out paced both Emerson and Jochen Mass after a few laps.

Our sources are also telling us that Emo is quite upset and as he does not want to be relegated to #2 driver again, as he in reality got at Team Lotus in 1973, he might already have signed with Copersucar!
Oh well, time will tell..
.......
There´s more substance to the rumor that there´s going to be a change of drivers at the UOP Shadow´s team though. JC Case and Fredrik Holmberg has already done a couple of test sessions with the team and Team Manager Jackie Oliver is optimistic about the possibility of signing both of them for the next season.
"There are no contract´s signed yet but I´m certainly trying my best to meet the demands that JC has stipulated, he´s very headstrong about certain details in his contract though." That last sentence was of the record btw, Oliver continued "and you can not quote me on that as we´re at a quite sensitive point in the negotiations right now."
But we both can and will do that, and our sources are telling us that part of the demands that JC Case has stipulated is supposed to be about more long legged blond pit babes in the Team Shadow´s garage area the next season.
We can appreciate that, for sure..

Exclusive footage from JC Network!
Ferrari is testing a new driver!

We´ve heard that the lap times set by this driver was quite respectable.. Pretty odd helmet though, got to be hard to see the track and stuff in that one..

How about teams for the next league? I haven't found one yet, can i just choose?
I would put myself in a team with Ronald then, we are co workers. But im not sure if i can just say like "hey ill drive arrows with Ronald".
I have trouble navigating around the new site and didnt know where to put this question.
The button "active topics" is gone and im not sure what replaced that. And the quick reply bar on the right which was usefull in some situations.
