WSGT2 – Racers Modding Team [RMT]

Hi everyone,

It has been a long time since we posted anything regarding our WSGT2 mod for… hmm, not sure. Back in 2008, we decided to create a follow-up of our 2006 WSGT mod for GTR2. The WSGT2 was supposed to be released for ISI’s rFactor 1. Whilst being only a four-member team we did set high standards. When in 2009 Image Space Incorporated introduced the upcoming rFactor 2, we decided to halt all work and wait for the rF2 Beta to arrive. This took a little longer than expected.

By the time the rF2 Beta was available, our personal lives had changed dramatically. To have a peek at rFactor 2 modding, we decided to take our old (built in 2009) RMT Megane Trophy V6 model in-game and tried to get an idea of rFactor 2’s strengths and flaws. To be honest we were not that motivated or excited, but gave it a shot. During the development of the WSGT2 material, we ended up with gigabytes of material. We kept on testing the mod in rFactor 1, and while waiting for rFactor 2 the content grew.

In a perfect world, we would like to release part of the WSGT 2 material for rF2 and Assetto Corsa. That said, there is no such thing as a perfect world, meaning we are still debating what we will or can do.

Today we reached a point where we are discussing what the next step will be. For the moment, we have a staggering amount of material but have to be honest to admit that with the four of us and the time schedules we are running, it will be virtually impossible to release the full WSGT2 mod as planned. Even a few cars might become a problem with the current workload and free time. As friends, and as a Team we are now trying to come up with a few solutions. One of those solutions would be bringing more members into RMT. Admittedly we have tried that in the past, and it became clear that this is not as easy as it might sound. It’s very hard to find passionate and committed modding enthusiasts.

If someone out there would hear the calling and would like to join our little team, feel free to contact us. The attached gallery (about 600 screens) and videos show you a small amount of material we have created in the past few years. While some material is a good 5 years old, we feel it still complies with today’s standards. (Keep in mind that all videos are recorded in rFactor 1)

It would be a shame to let it all go to waste. So we are trying our best to come up with a solution that enables us to finish what we started. Thanks for listening.
