rFactor HistoriX GT & Touring Cars Fun Night - 20th August

Post by Growler » Wed Aug 14, 2019 10:24 pm

A few of us have been firing up Historix on rfactor 1 lately as its still an awesome mod.

Seca has kindly offered to put up a server next Tuesday (20th August) running a few NZ tracks.
Look for KSR HistorX in the server list.

Feel free to jump on for a few fun races using various classes etc. Plenty of sideways action is guaranteed.

We'll start the races at 8:30pm

Download Links

NZ Track Pack - https://mega.nz/#!9tMSSIiK!AaxyMzIkyGyL ... QtZ1Ei6Mvk
HistorX Part 1 - https://mega.nz/#!g0VSyYaT!nUki6KA0wSmA ... RcduE4pNTw
HistorX Part 2 - https://mega.nz/#!RgdEBKJL!sYm_Au8zo_bH ... KjDijKe0z0

You will need a copy of GT Legends installed to install HistorX from the links above.

GT Legends on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/44690/GT_Legends/

If you install it to licence HistoriX, ensure you install GT Legends in the defaults C:\ location for Steam games.
Otherwise the HistoriX install will fail!

For those who don't have GTL, have lost their disk, or are having trouble getting rFactor to run etc but want to join in the fun, Flick me a pm.

I'm sure I can help with a link. ;)

Absolutely, and you never know. Enough committed people we could run a series?

I've been wondering why there hasn't been much activity on the site then this turns up. Was looking at rejoining for the next series.

But I removed rFactor 1 off my new computer build to save space. Going to have to dig it all back up again now.

Rifty if I can't find anything I might drop you a PM.

It's just been a bit of unfortunate timing last 3-6 months where all the admin/organisers have been busy with other life events. We will be getting a full rFactor 2 series up later this year.

I've somewhere found the mod package ;p and it all seems to work fine but I don't get any sound when I'm in the car. However, I do have sound in the menu and all, any tips on where to look? The interface sure is.......different LOL

Try creating a folder on C and copying files from D. IIRC HistorX doesn't need GTL runing, just checks on the existence of some files.

OK installed RF1 on the default location on C:\Program Files(x86)\rFactor then put the HistoriX mod over it - started up, created new profile, etc. And still no in-game sound. I have multiple sound devices, the onboard audio of my motherboard but my Plantronics USB headset is it's own USB sound device. I suspect that the 3D engine may be defaulting to the onboard sound card perhaps? I do have sounds in the menus though.

You need to install both games in C:\Programs Files\ not the (x86) folder.
