GAME STOCK CAR 2013 !!!!!!
this game really caught me off gaurd for a few reasons....
1. It runs off the same engine as rfactor and I was not overly impressed with a few key aspects like sound and visuals in that game.
2. I tried Game stock car 2012 and just thought of it as another decent rfactor mod
so when I heard about 2013 being released I thought " yeah" another rf1 what could they have done that hasn't been perfected with this aging engine? I started doing some research and was noticing a lot of threads popping up on different forums raving about it than Zero posted a review at Gbr it really got me curious....so I watched a few YouTube trailers, and thought wow it looks pretty good visually and the sounds are too!!! So there's just I thing left...how does it feel?
so I decided, iam tired of these buggy betas, I hate rfactor and no one plays r07 anymore I just want something to drive till the next gen arrive......well best $25 I've ever spent on a sim!!!!
And it only took me 2 laps to realize it. The feel is the best I've felt in any sim, the cockpit cam is fantastic more like the pcars helmet cam and the visuals and sounds are a slight step above the race 07 series which I thought were really good for its age.
since it runs on the same engine as rfactor a lot of the good mods are being updated and converted to game stock car. I've tried a few and they are much better than the rf1 versions.
tracks can be found at nogripracing.com and are coming fast!
a few mods that have been converted are:
blancpain enduro series
drm revival
Porsche Mobil 1 series
v8 supercars
dtm 2013 but personally thought the ingame v8 was much better
also found some touring car mods but have yet to test them
so if your like me and are tired of buggy betas, aged engines or over priced iracing this game is a must and the best $25 you'll spend for a sim!
Yes this looks very intresting!

I see I am going to have to buy this...Damn you Kurrupt. Hope these guys work with the new Gmoter engine next, 'cause this is an aging engine and the new engine has sooo much more that they can play with.
I was very sceptical too when trying pull the trigger and purchase, for many reasons...2012 wasn't all that great, I've never been a fan of rf1 and I didn't think there was anything left to squeeze out of a 7 yr engine....but luckily I was wrong!
The only thing I need to adjust out of the box was the cockpit shake in my player.ini as it was a bit too much for me.
I wasn't sure about the tracks at first as I was only familiar with 2 of them but after driving a handful now I've yet to find one I haven't enjoyed.
they have a stcc/btcc feel to them and would be great for touring cars
speaking of touring cars I've come across a fairly decent one called vtcc with a heep ton of cars to select from
the blancpain mod is excellent and will apparently be getting an update for this game as currently it's just a conversion with no upgrades.
a lot of tracks are making there way over as well....you can grab them from nogrip or iracing forum.....snooping around I've located 5 btcc tracks so far !
i sure hope Reiza gets there hands on 1 of the next gen engines and works there magic on it :)

VTCC is on it?
That mod has an excellent list of cars (Merc, Citroen, and a hatch and saloon Focus)
Tempting.
Yup I've given it a go and it's pretty good....feels like an rfactor mod with better visuals and sound.....and a good selection of cars. The ingame tracks are perfect touring car tracks, the mini, v8 and f3 are fantastic!
Really enjoying the game overall I've probably already put more time into this game than I have rfactor :)
Gave it a quick blast last night.
with enough mods this just might retire rfactor 1.
i too was a little surprised by how good it feels.
The vtcc mod is good I gave it a run last night and really enjoyed it! Only issues I found was the final drive was set too short in all the cars and need to be adjusted and can't be used in single player, and a few cars have a black outline around the window and shows grass textures through it not really that major but you notice it. The blancpain mod I feel is the best suited soon. Keep in mind there is a final build still to be officially released which should fix any issues still remaining.
But ya iam really enjoying thus far :)
kurupt, how did you get rid of or at least reduce the cockpit shake?
Edited my player.ini file look for 4 lines called cockpit vibe multi and cockpit vibe freq....I started by reducing it by half of the Stoc setting but have now moved to having 0.00 for all four which eliminates the cockpit shake that effects your eye sight but I've left the head movement in options to 75% so I still get the visual gforce effects that I find tie in nicely with the ffb for reading what the car is doing.
another thing I noticed and might not effect others but check your main folder config file and see if your computer specs are correct it should look like this for the following lines
CPU rating:5
cpu memory: whatever u have in mb
gpu memory: what ever u have in mb
texture detail:5
opponent detail:5 I believe that is the line below texture detail?
Mine for some reason were set to 1
this will help the overal graphic details :)
i also applied the 4 gb patch used In rf1
Hmm that might explain why I was so underwhelmed by the graphics, cause they look very average. I'll have to take a look.
With our card knight you should be able to run 32xcsaa + x4 super sample in the nvidia controller and set to override will help clear things up nicely. Also make sure all video settings are on max ingame
Heh my nvidia controller crashes, everything is maxed out in game, but I have yet to check those settings.in the config file.
Strange but not surprising the nvidia drivers have been less than great of late....I am using the latest driver and the 2 new features but of course they don't work on triples and vsync is broken....when enable it I get terrible screen tearing on every corner or distorted transparent 1 inch line across my screen that moves from the bottom to the top? So I've turned it off and iam getting 90-140 fps with those settings. Seems like a big avg but it's due to frame drops on certain tracks that has been reported, there's still some optimizing to be done for the official release.
these are my settings for the most part
fanatec gt3rs settings
degree off
ffb 100
sho100
dri sometimes I set to 1 depending on car to smooth out and lighten the wheel
everything else off
fanaleds
shift and brake vibe only
ingame control
ffb high 60-70% should avoid clipping and is the advised range on there forum
in your controller ini file the steering range is defaulted to 270 which is very small and if you don't adjust your fbb it's gonna feel like a brick. The advised setting for realism is 540 with an ingame steering lock of 25 for most the cars....900 for the camaro 33 steering lock
graphics
iam capable of running everything ingame on max with nvidia controller set to override app with 32xcsaa + 4xsuper sample max power
in gsc graphics config I set shader to auto aa off
if you encounter stuttering it's been advised to turn on vsync on in your driver not ingame
config.ini
cpu rating 5
cpu memory: mb
gpu memory: mb
texture detail: 5
opponent detail: 5
shader detail: 3
ive found that if you install a new gpu driver or change resolution these settings will return to default
More stuff coming!

I've been racing the mini's in GSC today and I'm really impressed, most fun I've had in ages and that's just against the AI!!
Love the game minis are a blast, I've been running the blanc pain mod against the ai and there by far the best in any game. Truly hope they look into purchasing the rf2 engine for there next release as I'd love to see what magic they could work :)
I've just finished the Mini Champoinship and it went to the last race, won by 4 points! I just had the AI at 100% as I'm learning more than half the tracks but had a blast! Now to decide what next, maybe F3 or old Stock Cars.
I've got Blanc pain mod, Lupo Cup, Porsche Cup and a couple of others but the sound doesn't work! Need to look at it tonight, probably just files need moved or something. It's a really nice sim, I can be far more consistant and push better than I can in anything else.
What do you run the AI on Kurupt? I tried 100% and it was there or there abouts but I think 105 or 110% is maybe a bit more fun.
I believe i was running the same.....the ai is really good and competitive in this title.
Mini is a blast, my next series is either the v8 or f3
I wish i could figure out the dedicated server as id love to host a fun drive day once a week and when i can
That would be awesome, if you need a hand with anything just let me know!
Being able to join my own server would be a good start. :)
This guy is the shit!!!!!
a guy over at rd has created a program that converts all rfactor mods to gsc2013
simply awesome, no more piss poor sounds....tho aside from the blanc pain mod the converted rf1 mods grad docs look terrible compared to the ingame base content :(
