This game never stops getting better!

My user used to be 'dtaker' on BHMS until they got closed.. I was chiefly making and contributing setups. I stopped RBR since over a year ago.

But when I came to NZ, I suddenly found myself in a vast gravel expanse! I fired my RBR again but this time to practice rallying for real. I got my rally beater (practice car) setup in the Abarth Punto for gravel and tarmac. Looks the same, same color and best of all, drives like the real thing quite a handful really as my practice car, a lot worse than the WRC cars in the sim.

Not surprisingly, I am doing exactly the same mistakes I'm doing in the sim in the real life. But I had to complain to Warthog, because when I hit a gravel bank in real life when I lost control of the drift, the bumper of my car didn't come off, only got a tiny scratch!

Seeing as the RBR community seems to be dwindling a bit I thought I'd post some screenshots of my first ever attempt at a skin! It's the Ford 2012 livery and for a first go I'm pretty pleased.

Looks good mate

**52Paddy** · 19th Dec 11, 20:20

Good work

Think I need to get my wheel and pedals out over Christmas and get into RBR again. Haven't even driven the Fiesta yet!

**pettersolberg29** · 21st Dec 11, 22:25

The Fiesta is a great car on RBR - set many PBs in it. Much easier to control even if its worse on the slow corners.

I've been on RBR again since some time and I had a bloody difficult time getting along with the DS3 WRC. Me being a Citroenish man I was very frustrated so I went with the Fiesta. It drives very nicely however I've been trying the DS3 again and I have to say Im beginning to get my hands on it and it feels so better after you begin to master it.

And both the S2000 and WRC version of the Mini as been launched by Garyson and as always, excellent work.

The WRC version is here if you want to download it Rbrplus .

How far can the community take RBR?

**PuddleJumper** · 14th Jan 12, 12:22

Very clever!

**pettersolberg29** · 14th Feb 12, 01:23

Anyone playing RBR on the Hungarian plugin? Really relaxed and fun to join - would be nice to see a few familiar names on there!

**aliliaquat** · 27th Feb 12, 11:42

i read all about it...and get some useful information.

**EuroTroll** · 2nd Mar 12, 13:53

Would there be any interest with you guys in organizing a forum RBR championship?

**pettersolberg29** · 2nd Mar 12, 14:29

I'd be up for it but it's been tried before and had to end due to lack of interest. If numbers could be raised again count me in.

After I installed the plugin, every time I start the game it crashes after the credits and the "downloading updates" bar. Has anybody been able to fix this?

**pettersolberg29** · 5th Mar 12, 16:33

Hmm I've never known that problem. If you install a clean copy of RBR and save it to your desktop NOT in program files, then download the plugin into that desktop folder then it should work. Make sure you download the two updates 1.01 and 1.02. Let me know if it doesn't work.

**eestlane** · 7th Mar 12, 22:42

I have a big problem with Head Gasket.
Does anybody know a fix for it?
The car loses power at the end of the stage.

**pettersolberg29** · 7th Mar 12, 23:32

What plugin is that in? If its the Hungarian one then go on options and turn on the head gasket fix.

**Bruce D** · 7th Apr 12, 10:25

Anyone tried the new pacenote plugin mentioned at RBR+ ? I tried it a bit this morning and it's very good. It lets you alter the notes on the fly so you can do a recce of the stage like in real life and correct them as you go.

**Bruce D** · 8th Apr 12, 19:57

Ok had more time with the pacenote plugin. Such a pity it doesn't work with BTB stages yet as that's where it's really going to come in. Anyway, what a brilliant tool! I've just been playing with the rally school stage and the amount of depth you can go into is incredible. There are over 200 individual calls it can do (with a different, much clearer voice in English) so you can do into massive details like Petter Solberg or keep it simple, just more refined to your style or car.

Just some examples of what I've got it to say now (I use gears for corners as my method, i.e. numeric system like CMR):

"4 left into 4 right plus - over bridge, caution water into flat left and 3 right tightens."

"Over crest into 5 right maybe, 100 3 left narrows"

"Square right, don't cut, rock"

"4 right, twisty, double caution water into 3 left"

"4 right cut into 3 left cut, caution water into 3 right"

That is just the basics so far, way more to come. You guys seriously have to check this plugin out.
