Ideas

• Simple Modern GTR2
  • Single package applied over GTR2 that brings it up to Modern GTR2 standards
  • Package only contains the files and patches needed to patch GTR in order to avoid legal issues
  • One-shot: Avoid asking the user to select options from menus.
  • The idea is to radically simplify what has become a very daunting and complex series of steps for users who just want to try it out

Scratched:

• Ambient and track temperatures do not go down overnight: Can I modify the weather file to make that work?
  • Weather files are simply a progression of minutes without regard to time of day. It would require a higher-level change that would be able to look at what time-of-day the user chose in-game and then selecting from a file that starts-at-that-hour. It's possible but pretty involved.

Arcade Mode
- Changes mirrors to virtual rearview mirror only
- ...???
- Is this for controllers and gamepads?
- "Arcade mode- with individual physics to suit every game fan."
  - "In addition to the most accurate racing simulation on the planet, GTR has a completely separate Arcade mode for those gamers who love to throw the car around with wild abandon. The arcade mode is all about fun with thumping music and forgiving handling - a perfect introduction to real racing for the average gamer."
