RFactor aimed to be the most accurate race simulator of its time. Released in November 2005, rFactor did not have much competition in this market, but it featured many technical advances in tire modeling, complex and a 15.rFactor was developed by (ISI), which has been developing simulators since the early 1990s for both commercial and military purposes.

The isiMotor2 engine was also used in many other simulation games. Two mods depicting a Formula 1 car skidding at the Lime Rock Park circuitrFactor has a detailed interface during offline race sessions or online games, allowing players to control the mechanical of their cars, chat to other players and enter the racing arena in their vehicle. The player's car can be driven from multiple viewpoints, but the two most popular are termed the cockpit view (from the driver's eye) and swingman view (above and behind the vehicle).Most players say vehicles are best controlled using a computer, although a or even keyboard can be used. The is also used for some actions, like requesting pit service and adjusting brake bias. This is analogous to buttons on modern racing car steering wheels and most computer wheels have buttons that can be mapped to keystrokes. The player can jump directly from the racetrack to the control interface by pressing the escape key (ESC), or entering their pit box.Content rFactor has two classes of vehicles, Open Wheel Challenge and cars.

Open Wheel Challenge vehicles are, including 100 training vehicles, -like cars and -like cars (called Formula IS). The sedan cars range from compact yet sporty to -like vehicles and American. They also include (-like).On May 10, 2006, ISI announced a deal with to add the car to the game.

The vehicle was demonstrated at the. The deal was to be specifically to promote the upcoming processor. The BMW Sauber was added in 2006.

The respective cars of 2007 and 2008 were released as official add-on.Developer ISI did not seek to license any racetrack at all, so included only fictitious circuits. RFactor was released with just five facilities, comprising approximately 10 layouts, including some which were simply reverse races. The facilities were Orchard Lake (an oval and road course), Mills Metropark and Toban Raceway (road courses), Joesville Runabout (a short oval) and Sardian Heights (a street race in a city environment).

In later updates, an extra layout for Sardian Heights have been added, Essington Park, Lienz (a mountain road and rally course) and Jacksonville (a high banked super speedway) were added. Several real world tracks, but with fictitious names, were added to the game as part of an update released in 2006, such as Barcelona , Brianza , Northamptonshire and Nuerburg.Modding In addition to the stock vehicles and circuits available in rFactor, a steady stream of unofficial mods has become available. A large number of modifications were released, including ones that recreated seasons from,. Cars from the racing games, and were also converted into rFactor with the mod Shift Street.

With the release of the, many new venues were created and released as unofficial addons to the game. Many of the circuits for rFactor were converted from other games, including, and.Development. BMW Sauber vehicle in a promotional imagerFactor is an evolution of, but without the of.

As such, rFactor's initial release only included four fictitious circuits (seven as of v1.087), with about a dozen layouts within these facilities and there were about six vehicle classes, including two open wheel and four sedan classes. Among its most notable features was a rich interface for creating custom game contents, which made it possible for amateurs to create additional vehicles and tracks for the game. On August 1, 2006, ISI released the full update, with many changes and new features, including the new 2006 BMW Sauber F1 and a much requested manual. Another notable and often requested feature was driver-swapping, which allowed to change drivers during the race, enabling up to 24 hour events like Le Mans.A feature was added to allow the AI to 'learn a track', which teaches the AI the ideal way to drive a particular circuit. As of v1.150, the AI was improved, leading to notably faster driving styles. RFactor also advertises an advanced tire model, aiming to be much better than the model previously used in most simulators. RFactor's tire model simulates a non-linear tire use cycle according to temperature and wear.F1 Challenge proved to be popular for online racing over the Internet through, which allowed any player to find available games.

RFactor has extended this in several ways. The central server is handled by ISI themselves, so finding other games is effectively the same. However, the central server will show all races and practice sessions over a web interface known as Racecast. There are also career statistics available for registered drivers. The game server can be run from a dedicated program, free from the need to render graphics. It can run mixtures of human and computer controlled (AI) vehicles.In an evolution from F1 Challenge, the circuits now include all layouts at a particular facility, which greatly reduces the need to duplicate track geometry. The game can easily accommodate different sorts of vehicles and games between multiple classes of vehicles are possible.

Why would I play this game?[edit]

rFactor has been and still is one of the most popular sims out there. You might ask: Why is such an old sim still popular?

The main reason for rFactor's popularity and success is compatibility. There are thousands of mods you can download for free from many sources all over the internet. Plus, the game does not require a high end PC. As a matter of fact, even low end computers and laptops from 8 years ago will easily get 30-40 FPS on medium settings. And in addition to that, you do not need the full version of the game to install mods and enjoy it. You can download the Lite version, substitute the .exe with the crack and Voila!

So, a quick recap: Download in 5 minutes (200MB file), installation in 2. Why are you not playing yet? Because you're a bitch. That's why.

If you have doubts about the quality of the experience, don't. The physics engine in rFactor has recieved nothing but praise. It has been used in numerous other sims thanks to its realism. Also, the graphics of some of the mods will surprise you. Trust me on that.

How to download and install?[edit]

It is quite simple. First, you fetch the version you want.

The Lite version is ISI's free/demo version of rFactor but only has one series and two tracks available for it. Grab this one if you like small and multiple installs for specific mods or don't do much vanilla. You can download it here: rFactor Lite (274Mb).

The Ultralite version has one car and one track, perfect for muh multiple installs. rFactor Ultralite (94MB)

Alternatively, you can download the full version with all the vanilla content right away: rFactor (1.0Gb). Get this one if you want to have the vanilla content/are a content completionist and/or plan on only one large install.

Once downloaded and installed either version, go ahead and download the crack here: 32-Bit or 64-Bit. Once the download is finished, copy the cracked version to your rFactor folder and replace the original .exe with it. The crack has working multiplayer.Then download this FPS fix, and drop it in the root folder

4 GB patch/Game crashes with high player count[edit]

The Blancpain mod has problems with more than 25ish cars in one session. You can patch the cracked .exe file with this little tool to allow the game to use more than 2 GB of RAM. Note that you need to make sure your rFactor.exe is not set to Read-only by right clicking it and selecting properties. The box next to read-only must be unchecked BEFORE you run the tool. This helped people in the past that weren't able to safely join a race on the server.

Hosting a server[edit]

If you're wanting to host a server for rFactor, you'll need to override the firewall test in order to get it broadcasted on the server list. This can be done by navigating to your multiplayer.ini file located in Userdata/Yourname and switching Announce Allowed from 0 to 1. If you're using an OS like Windows 7 you'll probably find this in AppDataLocalVirtualStore<directory you installed rFactor> instead of the actual folder.

What if I own a wheel/gamepad?[edit]

If you own a wheel or Xbox360 controller, the game will detect it automatically, so this should be no issue.For DS3 users, you need to download DS3Tool(MotionInjoy) or a similar program.for the completely retarded, yes you'll have to bind some buttons and axis to your liking.

If you use a wheel and RealFeel, make sure to bind the 'reset FFB' button, or else in the case of a restart, you will not have any FFB

Mods[edit]

You want to know where you can find mods?

Use google you lil' shit. Seriously, this game is so popular, you will find mods everywhere. The most trusted and one with most professionally done mods would be Race2Play. They also host races and do leagues. There is also rfactorcentral, but some of their content is not free.

How to install mods?

Most of the time the mods will be .zip folders. You will only need to extract it into your rFactor folder, the rest will be taken care of. Some mods come with their own installers which can automatically detect the folder and just ask for your permission. Simple process.

Here's a picture guide for retards if you fucked up somehow.

If you download a series/mod and can't find it in the game, check to see if you have it selected under Customize > Player > Series.

Unlock all cars trick[edit]

More F.A.Q.[edit]

1. How can I make my own skins and put them in game?

2. How do I enter Pit Stops?

Check out this guide to Pitting in rFactor

3. Do I need to do a fresh install of rFactor Lite for every series/mod I download?

No, you don't need to do that. This is recommended only if you experience the game bugging/crashing with multiple mods.Although it is advisable to do a fresh install for a mod you do not trust.

4. How can I race with you guys?

Info about our current series and more here: OVGTP, OVGF1 and OVGTCC.

5. I'm on a toaster and some tracks are too fps heavy for me to run smoothly, what should I do?

Lower all the qualities and turn off special effects for universal FPS gain. If you get frame rate drops at a certain part of the track, then it is one of the textures in that area that cause it. (usually trees, grand stands, etc.) Make sure you have the texture quality set as low as possible if that is the case.

Alternatively, you can check your rFConfig.exe to change your shader level from DX8 to DX9 or DX10 , with 10 being the highest quality. Just set it to auto and forget about it.

6. I'm loading up a track and the loading bar hasn't moved in a while, what do I do?

Spam your Enter and Esc buttons until you see the bar moving again. Repeat it till the track loads.This happens because sometimes error messages pop up in the background, so by pressing Enter and Esc you clear them.

7. I'm new to sims and have no idea how to setup my car, what do I do?

Setting up your car is a huge part of getting ready for a race. This flash app shows you the in-game setup menu, and explains what each option does when you click it: TuneToWin.

8. How do I beat Risto?

You don't.
