Released RaceRoom Truck - now available!

very, very, very nice!!! ... maybe we also get a "Freightliner" copy and real life paint schemes one day ... these would be great additions for the "RR Trucks"

 

Wann kommt es ? Kann es auch kaum erwarten !

 

Ok guys, positiv Corona test this morning, means 5 days in home isolation. READY TO ROCK AND ROLL!

 

Hopefully tomorrow, we will see.

 

just a small example of what kind of (fun) racing you can expect

 

Steering wheel is ready, so let's get it on!

 

if you guys have time with the trucks and once you get used to them it be great if you could do a few leaderboards ; help us get the baseline ai tuned in a bit more

thanks in advance

Only did 3 laps at my hometrack Zolder and i'm already in love.
Big thanks for this brilliant addition.

 

The perfect pre-Xmas gift ! ... Does anyone know what the letters "mf" in "RaceRoom MF-Truck" mean? "Motherf**ker" ??? ...

 

No better way than free-to-play competition

 

No , there are better ways

 

A positive reception from GM...

 

being an awful nitpicker, I noticed that the water spray sound is the same as the fuel pump sound when you switch on the ignition. apart from that I love the trucks, driving them is my daily workout now.

 

Is it? The water makes a shhhhhhh sound doesn't it?

 

Tested the Truck at Bathurst. Its a lot better than what I was expecting. It was able to brake, and steering it wasn't too tough. On the steering, I found myself releasing the wheel and letting it spin back to straight, and then catching it. Its something I sometimes do in my car.
I just wish I had a more intuative setup for the gear range and torque split. I've broken the transmission twice in my session. Both were because I was trying to go from 10th gear to 8th. Having the lever in 10th gear, when I switch to the low range, I mistakenly put the lever back into the gate I pulled it out of. Yup I performed a 10th to 2nd down shift. Not good for going in the forward direction.

If I had a toggle switch for both the split and range. I probably would have fared better. I got to find a USB trucking sim shifter knob!

A quick search landed me on Etsy and walmart... Gotta see if the one at the Waltons website is worth the extra 30 bones.

 

for me it's exactly the ignition sound. maybe it got changed already? Gotta try it again soon
