After more than year I'm finally happy to release a new version of my old WRC Essential pack.
The pack is a large overview of the whole WRC era (first period 97-10, second period 11-16). Despite the high number of seasons I've tried to make it simple to be played; I've included only manufacture's cars for each season, but I made some addictions, trying to have at least 6 cars per season. Only seasons 1997 and 1998 have less than 6 cars.
WHAT'S NEW?
1)Everything
2)Many new cars, liveries and seasons (from 1997 to 2006, seasons 2009 and 2010 are now separated, and 2016).
3)Small errors on cars included in the old pack are fixed, some of the models are updated and all the vertexes positions are simplified.
4)New physic, made to be simple to use on hard stages (I hope!)
5)Switch from a low value of brightness to a normal one.
6)Release format, each season now has it's own separate pack rather than an unique huge pack.

MORE ABOUT THE PACK:
Tricks
Often manufacture update their cars on the middle of a season, but in order to have a simple-to-play pack I want to avoid to include two different cars from the same manufacture on the same season. So I set up some tricks to have both the versions of cars used on a season even if only one is officially included:
Here some tricks:
1) 1999 Cordoba *or with trick--->Cordoba Evo2 from 2000
2) 2001 Lancer E6.5 *or with trick--->Lancer WRC from 2002
3) 2003 Octavia Evo3 *or with trick--->Fabia from 2004
4) 2006 Focus 04 (M-Sport) *or with trick--->Focus 06 (M-Sport) from 2007
5) 2008 Impreza S14 *or with trick--->Impreza S12B from 2007
6) 2008 Focus 08 *or with trick--->Focus 09 from 2009 or 2010
Useless cars and team's liveries not included
Some cars were pointless to be included because they were identical (on shape and livery) to others:
1) 2000 Cordoba Evo3 isn't included bacause it's identical to 2000 Cordoba Evo2
2) 2002 Lancer WRC2 isn't include beacuse it's identical to 2002 Lancer WRC
Often Junior/II etc.. teams have their car with identical livery to the one of the main manufacture from the same year (for example VW Motorsport II/Hyundai Motorsport N/Qatar WRT '13 etc..), well these cars are obviously not included to avoid doubles.
Team cars not included
Van Merksteijn Motorsport's DS3 from 2011 is not included due to impossibility to use purple with a normal value of brightness. I'm sorry about this.
WRC Testing Pack explanation
I built this pack only because of the existence of Yaris WRC, but then i caught the idea to create a pack with test cars which can be added as part of carlist on their related season. In this way Polo is playable from 2011, i20 from 2012, and Yaris in 2015 and 2016.
(NOTE: I named it "2016Test" only to have it after all the others, it don't have sense "2016").
