I got kinda forced out of my job in strange circumstances about 2 years ago, it was a shit low paid job that i shouldn't have cared about, but i had responsibility and pride so i was quite happy to plod on with it concentrating on the finer side of life, like not working all the time and getting into modding etc etc. This is me standing in the loch in my track as usuall smoking a joint. And got to meet a lot of fine people along the way, which is an awesome bonus. Best way to spend some quality free time. You can race, you can program, you can model, you can design textures, you need to take photos. When I saw AC, and what it can offer, both for players and modders, I realized it is the perfect platform for combining all my passions. Īnyway, fast-forward a few years (November 2013 ?) and the launch of Assetto Corsa. And hopefully in the not so distant future an OSW, the holy grail. Started with a Momo wheel, then a G27, now a T500. Started learning about racing line, overtaking maneuvers, braking techniques, and what not. Around 2008, started racing online (it was a way to keep in touch with old friends - now scattered around the world) and a damn fun one. It was the first believable "sim" and I loved it. But in 2005, when I tried LFS, things started to change. I always loved racing games, just like the next guy I suppose. I never did any modding, just random projects for fun or for home. I remember I was fascinated by the capabilities of 3D Studio Max back in the days of Pentium 150 MHz. ![]() On the side, my passions remained: programming, 3D and 2D, photography. Initially 2D, but later more and more 3D. ![]() Lots of use of Microstation (just another AutoCAD) for manufacturing lines and workshops. Worked 10 years in Process Engineering for Renault, as industrial system designer. ![]() Later, life happened, so ended up getting into Mechanical Engineering, so this is what I do today. I loved the possibilities, so I went for IT/Programming back then, up to high school. It was something very pixelish (maybe called Grand Prix ?) and shortly after the famous Lotus. My first contact with PC/Racing Games was on some 286 many many years ago.
