Converted GTR racks in rFactor
"Simbin is the real problem as I see it. ISI also is not the most
consumer-friendly company. " Alan - This has already been said, but maybe with too many words. Simbin and ISI sign contracts with various organizations in order to use the tracks. The contracts undoubtably specify the exact manner in which the tracks can be used. If Simbin and ISI in any way encouraged or even tolerated their use elsewhere, they'd have legal problems. They could be the consumer-friendliest people in the world, but they _can't_ support this. Not even if you already bought the tracks from them. |
