This week sees Image Space Incorporated’s improved Autodromo di Mores circuit released for rFactor2! The team at ISI have been hard at work polishing the Italian track. Tim Wheatley from ISI has informed us about some of the improvements that have been made to the circuit. A couple of the main ones include 4K textures and an all new “AIW” or Artificial Intelligence Waypoints, which basically control everything the AI does, such as following racing lines, grid and garage spots, as well as checkpoints.
rFactor2 players can download the 337mb circuit file on Steam right now. Players that already have the circuit installed on their PCs can expect it auto update via Steam’s workshop.
A little about the Autodromo di Mores circuit:
Located on the island of Sardinia, the Autodromo di Mores has a short layout of 1.650 km (or 1.024 miles) with a total of nine turns and is raced in an anti-clockwise direction. Opened in 2003 and licensed to host both two and four wheel motorsport events, this circuit is the only circuit to be found on the Mediterranean island!
