Vythonaut: Some more photos from GTR2 for anyone interested in some sim racing action. :)
te_lanus: Really should buy it when it goes on sale (or bundle) looks great. And really need to install rfactor
Keep in mind that it looks great due to post processing (SweetFX) and some manual post processing* (using GIMP & Snapseed). The standard GTR2 graphics are what would you expect from a 2006 game and look like those of RACE 07. Of course don't let the stop you, with little experimentation you can achieve great results. As a sidenote, I prefer GTR2 to RACE07/ GTR Evo; more favourable physics, endurance races, day/ night cycle, vastly better UI, Power & Glory mod. That said, there are some nice features in GTR Evo too, such as FWD cars, better windshield plus wipers, Radicals but nearly all of them can be added to GTR2.
*As for the post processing: What I'm generally messing with, after I take a shot, is brightness/ contrast/ blur (for depth of field and radial type for wheels when needed) and vignette. All of them can be achievement in real time too but I found that some tracks appear too bright so I set SweetFX to a more all around setting for actual playing. I'm uploading two shots to compare (in-game vs my uploads here).
One final note: It would be really nice if Assetto Corsa find it's way here on GOG someday.
