Read more about this resource...

I want to try it I love that sim I think the gokarts are the best except I cant download the plugin ? idont have enough coins. Can you send it to me Via email?

Anyone know where I can obtain a copy of this game please? I've tried Steam and other sites, but the game is almost ten years old now.....

Thanks.

yeah it sucks they don't sell it anywhere anymore. I have the gog installer files on my pc

@Boomslangnz - Hey mate, tried this tonight using a copy of V8 SuperCars 3 and I don't get any motion.

Simtools connects and puts my Sim to centre, however I only get static values in the Tuning Engine.
Even if I reset the variable (+/-) values to 0 and hit Capture, play the game, and come back to the tuning centre, everything is still Zero on the Axis values.

Happy to help you troubleshoot the Plugin if you have time? I notice you have TOCA, so wondering if there might be some subtle difference?

Cheers,

Archie

Ive got toca2 here, just found it. Not sure if its the same .exe , I can post you that as well if need be

Thank mate, but no need.

If the games are the same, the TOCA3 EXE should work, so I will download a cracked EXE for TOCA3 and try that. Given the Telemetry will come from the EXE and not the game files, it will be a good test to see if the EXE's are indeed different.

hmm bugger! A friend was gonna try out v8 supercars too but we never bothered attempting.

Im not sure if its cos i used a GOG version or cos its toca 3

we will sort this out

Whats the GOG version?

I was going to get a cracked .exe of TOCA3 and use that, see if the Plugin works with that, but not had chance. hopefully tonight.

Anything you need from me in terms of testing / cheatengine let me know @Boomslangnz

Hey @Boomslangnz - Managed to remote to my PC from work and installed the TOCA3 version of the RD3.exe and motion appears in Simtools.

It looks like the rd3.exe for V8 Supercars is slightly different. The Cracked version of RD3.exe (RELOADED) does give out motion.

I will upload the .exe files for you @Boomslangnz - and also share with the community for those that wan't to grab this decade old bundle of awesome

Thanks for the plugin @Boomslangnz - I love the V8' supercars and they are missing from all the major racing titles

Damn! I spoke too soon. I get motion but not on all sides. Nothing on opposite roll or pitch axis.

See SS:


Sway and Surge give crazy numbers... Not sure if that is what is expected. I stopped testing once Roll was broken.

Anything I can do to help @Boomslangnz , let me know.

Cheers....

@Boomslangnz - Hey mate, any chance you could Zip the rd3.exe you have from GoG and send me a link? I think the .exe I have is missing stuff that was in the GoG .exe.

That's my theory anyway..

Never mind. Managed to sort it out.

The plugin seems to be "neutral" - dead on zero. What I mean by that is that some of the forces don't trigger on tracks that are very flat or have no slopes to trigger pitch.
(as per post 13 above, where Roll and Pitch are 0.)
Once I ran the Sim around bathurst and setup tuning, I was getting values.
Most if not all of the plugins I've tried previous to this have some +/- value even when the car is stationary.

However, you still do need a modified .exe if you are running V8 Supercars 3 and not TOCA Race Driver 3.

The modified .exe is here (.rar file) Simply rename rd3.exe to rd3.old and away you go.

Thank you @Boomslangnz - I loved this game back in the day, and motion just pops a cherry on it!
