<p>Dal lontano gennaio del 2007 attendevamo notizie sul nuovo <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=32643" rel="">Kartsim</a> e finalmente oggi gli sviluppatori hanno aperto il <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=32643" rel="">sito ufficiale</a> di quello che si propone di essere come un vero simulatore di karting, ma adatto anche ai neofiti. Kartsim è previsto in uscita ad inizio 2012 e dalle <a href="http://www.kartsim.com/2011/09/kartsim-blog-1/" rel="external">prime informazioni</a>, immagini e video in game sembra promettere davvero molto bene...</p>

<strong>The Official KartSim FAQ &amp; PC System Requirements</strong><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>General</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>When's KartSim coming out?</strong></p>
<p>KartSim will be released during the <strong>1st Quarter, 2012 </strong>on the PC.</p>
<p><strong>Will it be available on consoles?</strong></p>
<p>The initial release is for PC only, however the game is Xbox360 and PS3 ready. We're working on securing a publishing deal to release KartSim on these platforms. Interested publishers can contact us <a href="http://www.kartsim.com/contact" rel="external"><em>here</em></a>.</p>
<p><strong>Will there be a public Beta?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, we'll be announcing how you can join in the beta testing in the next couple of weeks.</p>
<p><strong>What will the demo feature?</strong></p>
<p>The demo lets you race online as <a href="http://www.davidsera.com/" rel="external"><em>David Sera</em></a> around the <a href="http://www.ogkrc.com.au/" rel="external"><em>Oakleigh Go Kart Racing Club</em></a> in an <a href="http://www.arrowkarts.com/" rel="external"><em>Arrow</em></a><em> </em>28/30 chassis with a 17hp KT100s engine.</p>
<p><strong>What circuits will KartSim feature?</strong></p>
<p>The official circuit list will be announced in the next few weeks. Kart Clubs can contact us <a href="http://www.kartsim.com/contact" rel="external"><em>here</em></a><em> </em>to discuss featuring in KartSim.</p>
<p><strong>What kart chassis will KartSim feature?</strong></p>
<p>The official kart chassis list will be announced in the next few weeks. Chassis manufacturers can contact us <a href="http://www.kartsim.com/contact" rel="external"><em>here</em></a><em> </em>to discuss featuring in KartSim.</p>
<p><strong>Is KartSim a game or simulation?</strong></p>
<p>KartSim is both a game and simulation. Although the driving is a full simulation of a Kart, you can walk around the tracks and pits, earn points to customize your pit setup and kart livery, join other players' teams or invite them to your own.</p>
<p><strong>How realistic is KartSim?</strong></p>
<p>KartSim is as realistic as driving a kart in real life. Using a real-time FEM model to simulate the flex of the chassis, as well as an automotive industry standard tyre model, the Kart bucks, hops and jacks the inside rear wheel just like in real life.</p>
<p><strong>What engine does KartSim use?</strong></p>
<p>KartSim is built on the <a href="http://www.unity3d.com/" rel="external"><em>Unity</em></a> engine and uses a proprietary physics engine developed by the game's developer, Zach Griffin.</p>
<p><strong>I'm from a company/organisation involved in Karting/Sim Racing. Can I advertise in KartSim?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, for more information on advertising in KartSim, please contact us <a href="http://www.kartsim.com/contact" rel="external"><em>here</em></a><em>.</em></p>

<p>Dopo qualche giorno di "silenzio", torniamo a parlare dell'ormai imminente (uscirà il 22 settembre) F1 2011, segnalandovi un <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=55587" rel="">nuovo video di anteprima</a>, girato questa volta a Montreal e ben 4 previews, pubblicate grazie al testing della <em>preview code</em> del titolo Codemasters: le <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=55589" rel="">prime impressioni</a> sono quelle di un appassionato di simulazione, per passare poi alle anteprime di <a href="http://www.eurogamer.it/articles/videogiochi-02-f1-2011-hands-on-anteprima-7" rel="external">Eurogamer.it</a> (in italiano) ed <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-09-02-f1-2011-preview" rel="external">Eurogamer.net</a> (in inglese), per chiudere con <a href="http://www.videogame.it/f1-2011-ps3/99727/wipeout-in-monoposto.html" rel="external">Videogame.it</a>.</p>
<blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="cms" data-ipsquote-contenttype="records1" data-ipsquote-contentid="17612" data-ipsquote-contentclass="cms_Records1"><div>
<strong>Videogame.it:</strong> Malgrado gli annunci relativi a un aumento del realismo, le prime impressioni sono di un titolo votato ancora di più alla scuola arcade, sopratutto nel comportamento delle vetture. Se l'anno scorso era frequente (senza aiuti alla guida) perdere il controllo dell'auto nelle condizioni limite, adesso sembra di guidare sui binari anche nelle peggiori condizioni meteo, senza controllo alla trazione o ABS. Evidentemente Codemasters ha seguito la stessa direzione intrapresa con DiRT che, dopotutto, le garantisce ottimi risultati economici da qualche anno....</div></blockquote>
<blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="cms" data-ipsquote-contenttype="records1" data-ipsquote-contentid="17612" data-ipsquote-contentclass="cms_Records1"><div>The race engineer gives you a lot more info during the race. He will tell you what lap times you need to do in order to catch up on your opponents. He will let you know if the car ahead or behind you is in fuel save mode, he will tell you that it might start raining in 15 minutes. He lets you know how many stops you have to go, etc. Sometimes he is still being a dumb **** when he says 'Massa will stop in 5 laps'. Race director is also quite an improvement, although it's a shame that it only shows warning and penalties and not accidents. It's great for checking out what lap times the guy in front and behind you is doing.</div></blockquote>
<blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="cms" data-ipsquote-contenttype="records1" data-ipsquote-contentid="17612" data-ipsquote-contentclass="cms_Records1"><div>
<strong>Eurogamer.it:</strong> Nella build pervenutaci in redazione abbiamo trovato un primo assaggio di multiplayer, nella sola forma dello split-screen: in questa modalità è possibile sfidare un avversario in carne ed ossa, e nonostante l'azione a schermo raddoppi la qualità dell'immagine, il reparto grafico si conferma di alto livello mostrando circuiti dettagliati ed effetti di luce convincenti, insieme a tutte le asperità dei vari circuiti. L'ultima fatica Codemasters promette dunque un'esperienza di guida davvero completa e il nostro test conferma tali ambizioni: vedremo quindi, in sede di recensione, se anche tutti gli altri aspetti del gioco saranno all'altezza.</div></blockquote>
<p>Non manca poi una nuova <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=55045" rel="">manciata di screenshots inediti</a>!</p>

Well, short track fans rejoice. iRacing hasn’t forgotten you. In fact, there’s a veritable <span style="color:Black"><strong>bonanza</strong></span> of <span style="color:black"><strong>b</strong></span><span style="color:Black"><strong>ull rings</strong></span> in the pipeline.<p>For openers, <span style="color:Black"><strong>Mosport Speedway</strong></span>, traditional site of the season opener to the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series is currently in production. When it’s released, anyone who already owns Mosport International Raceway will automatically see iRacing’s newest half mile oval added to their collection of tracks.</p>
<p>Also in the works is the .686 mile oval at <span style="color:Black"><strong>Lucas Oil Raceway</strong></span> in Indianapolis (formerly known as Indianapolis Raceway Park), home to NASCAR’s Camping World Truck Series and Nationwide Series not to mention scores of USAC events including the legendary <em>Night Before the 500</em>.</p>
<p>Want more? How about <span style="color:Black"><strong>New Smyrna Speedway</strong></span>? Host to short track racing’s version of Speedweeks, New Smyrna regularly sees the likes of Kyle Busch, Mark Martin, Ryan Newman and Tony Stewart take time out from that “other” track up the beach every February to return to their short track roots.   The ink may still be drying on the contract, but rest assured the high banked .48 track will be joining iRacing’s catalogue.</p>
<p>Want less? You’ll be hard-pressed to find a short track with less banking than Virginia’s <span style="color:Black"><strong>Langley Speedway</strong></span>. Or one with a more diverse array of short track racing, from Late Models, Grand Stock, Modifieds and Legends to Super Street, Super Trucks, HRKC Pro Winged Champ Karts and Enduros. The .395 mile oval with no more than 6 degrees of banking is also under contract with iRacing and will be scanned in the near future.</p>
<p>Mosport. LOR. New Smyrna. Langley.   Short track racing is alive and well on iRacing.com.</p>
<p>And if you’re one those iRacers who prefer more than a half mile of virtual pavement, rest assured we also have some goodies in the pipeline for you. <span style="color:Black"><strong>Oulton Park</strong></span>, <span style="color:Black"><strong>Kentucky Speedway </strong></span>and <span style="color:Black"><strong>Twin Ring Motegi</strong></span> are currently in production, with Oulton Park the next in line for release.</p>

<p>Direttamente da Ian Bell, ecco arrivare una nuova immagine dell'Audi R18 che troveremo nel nuovo progetto degli Slightly Mad Studios, <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=55470&amp;view=findpost&amp;p=650359" rel="">C.A.R.S.</a>. Bell afferma che questi screen siano presi in-game in una sorta di modalità menu/garage, ma contemporaneamente che il motore grafico vero e proprio del gioco sta venendo riscritto da zero: come vengono realizzate allora queste immagini? C'è indubbiamente qualche altro dettaglio da chiarire: trovate ulteriori informazioni nel <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showtopic=55470&amp;view=findpost&amp;p=650359" rel="">nostro forum</a>!</p>

<p>Da diversi giorni ne sentivamo la mancanza ormai <img src="https://www.drivingitalia.net/uploads/emoticons/newemoticons_happy.gif" alt="^_^" srcset="https://www.drivingitalia.net/uploads/emoticons/happy@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">, ecco finalmente arrivare oggi una nuova intervista dedicata al prossimo <a href="https://www.drivingitalia.net/index.php?showforum=326" rel="">F1 2011</a>, fatta a Steve Hood, <em>chief game designer</em> della Codemasters.</p>
<blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="cms" data-ipsquote-contenttype="records1" data-ipsquote-contentid="17592" data-ipsquote-contentclass="cms_Records1"><div>
<strong>What’s your favourite new element of game design for F1 2011?</strong><p>It’s the fact that we’ve got Co-op Championship, and getting those 24 cars online as well so you do feel like that you’re battling through all the teams. It takes on a completely different dimension now when you look across the garage and compare your stats not just to your computer teammate but to your friend. It certainly becomes more personal, even in the practice sessions, whereas you might be willing to give up practice to your A.I. teammate, now you’re thinking I want to waste a set of tyres because I want to finish ahead of my friend. That’s a completely different experience and I hope gamers pick up on that this year.</p>
