WHY cant we do this??

Post by Norcal_51 »

Ok, so i have played a bit of other simulators in my day, and people on those (Rfactor,Flight Sim) are able to make their own vehicles with unique physics, power, size, etc. Why can't we do that in this game?

It'd be pretty easy to make the game read the bike info from a file. Some stuff needs testing and tweaking to be stable though. I don't know if that's a good enough reason not to do it.

I think that this would just allow people to cheat. Bikes being labeled as stock power plants with different dyno's on them.

These are my thoughts as well.

Guessing you have never played another sim? Just like this game already does, the server logs what bike you are on. And for rF races and qualifying all they have to do is set it to where only "stock" bikes can join. How is there a downside to this??? And then people could make actual 50's 85's, race bikes, etc. Which would be awesome. Not to mention, most of the people who play this game are not concerned with racing....
