i think the game is still good but custom tracks and stuff and be able to import ower own cars and parts would be cool like custom bodies or making a newr gen esc or somthing i get the engin is old and would take alot to rebulid it but someday people are just gonna get bored and wanting a new update of vrc and theres plenty of programer's out there that would be willing to try to open source the game or like make new stuff for the game
I have written many times before that VRC was not designed as a kind of open source project. It would take years of re-programming and would be extremely costly. Therefore I am stuck with what we have. The structures and authorization procedures are so complex that just giving the source away would end up in a big mess. This is a very big concern to me, how VRC can be continued, even as is, when I am no longer able to run and continue what we have now. And I am turning 73 in 2 months...

I think there is no right or wrong way. I just think that if the media side is not developed, it will be difficult to bring other people to VRC. you have to inspire, attract people.
what works best is a game that is alive, that comes up with new stuff all the time.
today the only pilots left are real people attached to this game or to training but that doesn't go any further.
I don't have a miracle solution, RC IRL has also been impacted by a wave of departures for almost 10 years now. it was off topic, suddenly the idea is good, the novelty always pleases. 😁👍

Hi Pieter,
Have you ever thought about using the VRC Ranking system in conjunction with Live RC to rank real RC Drivers?
Like a separate Member Ship to use for Ranking against your friends and clubs around the world.
I don't know exactly how it would work but I have a few Ideas. https://rcgarage.info
has a system that draws from Live RC they have not tied it together yet and I have not had any luck getting a hold of them.
The Way VRC ranks drivers would be a handy tool around the world to help people drive in the appropriate class at least.
Lets have a discussion about this if your at all interested.
I think there is a way to have:
1. track champions,
2. District Champion
3. State Champion
4. National Champion
in all the countries of the world that use a live track transponder system.
Maybe this is too crazy but I wish the real world was more like VRC.

I love the Game Pieter, always have you know this. It has actually proven to be a great training tool. I Started racing real cars last year January 2021. I make the A main most of the time my only practice is VRC I don't go to the track for Practice. I use VRC and then I go racing. VRC is really that good. I would love to have some form of Track editing plugin. I know we talked about this years ago, Duratrax Real Race Generation 2 had a track editor plugin that was fairly easy to use. Use a grey scale height map based on photoshop gradient grey scale drawing for the jumps and then you used the plugin to set the track pipes and boundaries. Seems that in this new age of technology this would be easy and would take VRC to a whole new level.

Donald, problem is that our whole game architecture was never designed for member involvement in designing tracks. The whole structure is very specific and too complex. Rebuilding this, if at all possible, would take years and would be very expensive.
