ZoomEine Woche nach Bereitstellung des neuen Builds 982 für rF2 gibt es für Simracer zur PC-Rennsimulation schon wieder Neuigkeiten. Image Space Inc. hat eine umfassend modernisierte Version 2.0 des Portugal International freigegeben mit der die bislang das Fahrerlebnis trübenden Performanceprobleme endgültig ausgeräumt sein sollen.
Dazu haben die Entwickler von rFactor 2 sich nahezu jedes Objekt das für die Streckenerstellung verwendet wurde vorgenommen, es optimiert und überarbeitet. Der Download der Installationsdatei des Portugal International V2.0 ist mit 322 MB normal groß. Das Änderungsprotokoll macht die Arbeit die ISI in die Strecke gesteckt hat jedoch erst wirklich deutlich, lässt das ware Ausmaß dennoch aber nur erahnen. Denn bei den aufgelisteten Punkten handelt es sich lediglich um einen Auszug der vorgenommenen Änderungen. Hätte man die vielen Überarbeitungen in kleinen Updatepaketen veröffentlicht, stünde eine 3 am Anfang der Versionsangabe.
