GTR2 Conversion by ZWISS
Track Infos :
Helsinki Thunder was a temporary street circuit located in Helsinki, Finland. The event was conceived by former racing driver Robert Lappalainen. From 1995 to 1997, it hosted events in the FIA GT Championship, Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft and International Formula 3000 Championship. The layout was slightly different every year.
You can find some footage of the 1996 ITC race here:
The Sim track:
This track was made for rFactor by Riku Sarpila (Riks).
He gave me permission to convert it to GTR2.
I made new (simple) shadow objects and a new collision wall.
I edited terrain and track in 3DSMAX.
I edited the road and wall textures to suit GTR2 better.
I added rain reflection and animated marshalls.
ISSUES:
The track is rather heavy on FPS.
I will try to improbe this in the future.
There is an error in the AIW, causing a strange glitch in the racing groove at one point.
