SEAT Leon Super Cup Hungary mod for rFactor

Unique modification for the rFactor racing simulation that brought the Hungarian SEAT Leon Super Cup into the game.

Situation

Task

Coming up with the idea, putting together the design team, managing the development and delivering the final product. Promotion, stakeholder management.

Action

Before the work began, we had to contact the original author to seek his permission and support for the development of this extension. We captured detailed photos to analyse the looks of the cars, contacted the teams and drivers for background information and fellow modders to incorporate their ideas and processes into our package. We also needed to promote our work on local and international simracing websites and offline platforms before and after the release.

Result

Thousands of downloads from various websites following the release. An online racing league decided to host a championship using this mod. Recognition from Porsche Hungaria, general distributor of SEAT in Hungary. Commercial requests to create race car livery designs for the 2008 season.
