JediMaster 451 Posted October 2, 2007 So basically, unless you're playing online with other 1255 users, you may not want to upgrade to 1255. That "increased loading time" has been reported to be QUITE severe in many cases, depending on how many cars you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Revvin 1 Posted October 7, 2007 I'm about to do a fresh install of rFactor anyway so I'll just install the stuff I actually played like the Porsche Cup mod, Meganes, Euro F3 etc. I had waaaay to much installed lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted October 9, 2007 Come on! Give in to the Dark Side of rfactorcentral. Install EVERY mod on the site!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Revvin 1 Posted October 9, 2007 I wonder how much HDD space it would take to install every mod and every track from rFactor Central, and how long the loading time would be?...any volunteers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted October 10, 2007 It would take more time than you can possibly imagine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Revvin 1 Posted October 10, 2007 Its not that hard to imagine as the last time I did a fresh install I went through every download checking for updates, installing, testing, installing some more. It took a few nights work which is why I'm being far more choosy this time around and besides hopefully my copy of RACE 07 will arrive Friday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted June 2, 2008 I don't do it that much anymore myself. However, there's still a decent group going over at SimHQ's motorsports forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
