• Gtr2 Track Downloads

Two years after the last update, The GTLW Mod Team has released a new version of their highly popular Power & Glory mod for GTR2.As you can see in the very long changelog below, the team has fixed countless of little issues and added plenty of improvements, including some brand new physics for some of the Ford & Porsche cars.In order to use version 3.2, version 3.1 needs to be installed. I thought profanity toward a fellow poster was out of line, as it should be. I was not aware all profanity was censored. Especially the generic, colloquial variety.I appreciate the work you have done as a moderator of this blog F1Racer, and I have been supportive of most of the steps you have taken so far to clean up the place. No one can really eliminate trolling completely, but you have done a good job of keeping the more vulgar and offensive trolls at bay.However, this is a bit much for me.

Especially being singled out for an offhand comment unrelated to the topic. Steam replaces offensive words with little hearts.

I don’t mind that. This I mind, especially since I have always been on the side of trying to eliminate gratuitous vulgarity with the intent to belittle or offend anyone for who they are or what they like.I would appreciate it if you would be so kind as to permanently blacklist my account to make sure there are no more slip ups in the future. Wow where did that come from? Talk about an over-reaction!I didn’t want to see the guy not have his posts posted because he slipped in a word that would be and was caught by the word filter and I have to say I was not expecting this reaction.Instead of not approving his post, I edited it and allowed it through as he’d taken the time to write so much and didn’t want to see it all wasted just for one word. Then I let him know so he can avoid his posts being flagged for moderation.Was I wrong here or is there just no helping some people?

I swear poeple are becoming more sensitive and easier to take offence at the slightest thing these days.Well, his loss. Public Announcement for anybody else using a T300rs:When you click on the green button on the launcher and then go into the ‘force’ page in the controls settings, the advanced effects filter ‘logitech g25’ will be highlighted along with low effects, 100% strength, and reverse effects will be activated. Leave the logitech 25 and low settings alone, set the overall strength to whatever you find comfortable (i use 90% gain in profiler and 75% in game) and most importantly, uncheck the reverse effects. (that is a biggie!!!).

I just had to stop back in to share that, after some more time re-acquainting myself with GTR2 and this mod, that I find the physics, the interface and even the install process as close to perfection as I can imagine.PnG is more than a mod or even a complete game. This is an entire sim racing career in a box. And that is a good thing, too, because all indications are that at least some of us may never see a successor in our lifetime.Having said all that, my all-time favorite individual sim cars remain the 911R, Daytona and GT40s from HistorX.

However PnG’s consistent level of quality across all the cars I have re-acquainted myself with thus far is mind boggling. And that Boss 302 my oh my!Historic vehicles translate so beautifully to simulation for too many reasons to mention.

My heart continues to weep for those who haven’t discovered the true joy of driving these vehicles; especially the deepest level achievable only by those with highly developed skills, knowledge and experience.Instead, too many of us are shackled by the endless pursuit of shallow, extrinsic and unattainable happiness sought through purchases and technology advancements that will hopefully immerse us without any effort on our part to invest in ourselves.Ah well, at least some are making a lot of money. Not from me, though 😉. Thanks for the comment, Kev. 🙂I read that second half of your post and it certainly ressonates with those involved with this mod/project.We can say that the racecars of the 1960s-1970s era have a lot of charisma, great sounds, were fun to drive and watch, etc. Sure, there’s also the nostalgia, but that’s just a side effect.What made them special, and defined that era, is the wonderfull variety caused by widely different aproaches and experimentation with racecars back then – something never seen again, ever.For sim-racing that means we can have such interesting variety producing a racing playground, where there’s always a car that fits everyone, whatever different tastes and preferences each of us always have.

🙂Unfortunately, the majority of sim-racers are oblivious to this, or prefer the more modern stuff (for whatever reasons). And that also includes commercial developers.Anyone here can notice that in each of the most recent titles there are few 1960s/1970s cars. Body inflation games. Better a few than none, right? The problem is, every single one of those is made as an afterthought for the respective game-title. They’re there mainly “for show”, for the catalogue.Wether our mod/expansion (for GTR2 only, and after 8+ years) can be still any relevant in the current day of 2016, that can be a matter of discussion.I’m obviously biased, but I believe P&G can still be relevant for reasons that go well beyond the age of the platform.

One of them is that there aren’t any alternatives to it.Like with other titles such as GTL and GPL, there’s still plenty people running P&G today – online inclusively (and leagues out there looking for more members). Newcomers still get pleasantly surprised with it.All in all, that must mean this group certainly must have got things very right, otherwise it wouldn’t have lasted this long.
