The Story:
BMW 1600 TI was dual carburated group 2 homologation model of 1600-2. TI version was manufactured from September 1967 to December 1968. The release of 2002 model in January 1968 started the coundown for the 1600 TI as 2002 being single carburated could pass the US emission tests while 1600 TI with it’s dual carbs could not. 2002 TI was dual carburated group 2 homologation model of 2002 and it was manufactured from September 1968 to April 1971.

In 1971 BMW did major overhaul to all 02-series cars. 1500-2 and 1600-2 were renamed to 1502 and 1602 and as the same time the group 2 rules were changed drastically, need of homologation specials was reduced quite bit. Rules now allowed homologation of modification kits, in which manufacturer needed to show that at least 100 kits has been produced. This ment that there was no need anymore building 1000 units of car with different carburation or injection system, but just making 100 units of modification kit to change standard car full fill the requirements. 1602 became as good base for race car as 1600TI and 2002 as good as 2002TI, making them obsolete. BMW however did 2002 Tii as replacement to 2002 TImeventhough there was no need for such car in terms of motorsport.

This mod presents both cars in 1970 performance. 1600 TI, though being dead as dodo in terms of production, showed it’s full potential by winning the ETCC Division 2 Championship. Cars running in ETCC were tuned and ran by Alpina. 1970 was a bit “middle drop” for the 2002 TI as it had glorious days in 1969 under Group 5 rules and while the 1970 Group 2 rules were said to be close to previous years’ Group 5, there were few major differences. One of them being that Induction had to be same as in production model. And BMW’s Group 5 success was based on 2002 TI with turbo on it. So no turbo for 2002 ment that the tuning of the engine had to be done completely different way and while 2002 TI had some success in 1970, the major effort went that year to 1600 TI and 2600 CS which were ran with great success.

Production 2002 Turbo versio did follow 3 years later but oil crisis cut the wings from the project almost instantly.


Notes:
In December 2017 when I was working on with new online championship cars, BYL had BMW 1602 and 2002 in works. As my car set was set to earlier than 1971, I did alternative physics for simulating 1600 TI using the same 3D model and structure as the BYL’s mod, so that when BYL releases their mod, I can use it with changed physics (and set of new skins) to my series. It would been okayish although the 3D model incorporated newer eblems. However the BYL’s mod got stuck due several different reasons and stayed a stand still until 2021. As there was now couple of guys finializing unfinished mods with Papag21’s permission, I decided to give a go to make the changes to 3D model to also look like 1600 TI. Even though the changes were not that big, there was a lot of work as I wanted to make the templates for the skinners and these were very first templates I have ever done. The original templates were long lost so making high quality skins would been too hard. In late phase I was asked for include also 2002TI, which I did in it’s 1970 spec.


Skinning & Modding:
You can find templates, genstring and skinning guide (pdf) under the templates folder.

Und? Wie gefallen euch die neuen BMWs? Steckt ne Menge Arbeit von Lasse drin, er würde sich bestimmt über Rückmeldungen freuen...

Glück auf!

Moin,

sehr schöne Autos, schon im Standardsetup sehr gut zu fahren. Optisch auch gut gelungen und da es ein Template gibt dürfen wir auf weitere schöne Karossen hoffen

Ganz herzlichen Dank an Lasse/Nappe1

Ich hab grad den 1600er getestet.

Sehr schönes Auto.
Ist schon mit dem Standard-Setup sehr gut fahrbar.

Vielen Dank, Lasse.

...Der 1600TI scheint ein richtig schönes Auto für Rookies zu sein.

Hallo,
warum ist es nicht erschwinglich?

Hiho,

ich verstehe nicht? Was meinst du?

Glück auf!

Hi Nappe,

sehr schöne Arbeit.

Fahrzeuge sind gut zu handlen, macht Spass damit zu fahren.

Vielen Dank.

Tolle Autos, danke dafür

Gruß,
Kris

Vielen Dank für Ihre netten Kommentare.


These cars, especially the 1600 TI was fun to work with and I learned quite few new things like making the templates. I am not biggest fan of BMW but I do have a soft spot to 1600TI and when you start making a mod, you have to throw your personal preferences to side and do the car as good as possible objectively.

I have plans to make 1.2 version with DucFreak sounds and few additional skins, but I have the online championship(s) to run and also 1970 Nürburgring (Nordschleife, Südschleife, Betonschleife and Gesamtstrecke) in works that has to be continued, so we will see when the 1.2 version happens.

Not avalaible to buy it

not avalaible to buy

The same for 2002

In the autoupdater tweaks you must activate "unlock" all cars (maybe you need to create a new profile in the game (then delete your and you can create your again).

Anyway you can participate on thursday and sunday races and earn credits

Nappe, great cars, grats for the work!!

To unlock all cars you can create the file "TG2001.dyn" in your GTL mainfolder.
then save and delete the folder with your driver name in the userdata folder.
start gtl and create a new driver with the same name as your old driver name.
Exit gtl and copy the saved *.plr file and the settings folder to the new driver folder in userdata and overwrite the existing one.

Hello,

have a look at your credits - with 0 credits you can't buy any car If you drive a race online until the end you will get some credits.

Hello, if you don't play the cups in singleplayer, then you can still try the following: You create in the updater or via editor in the GTL directory the file TG2001.DYN. Do not save it with the extension txt if you do it with the editor, but as DYN file.
After that, go to your GTL directory, then Userdata, then your driver name. In this folder you delete these files: Career.blt cupstats.stc garage.gar and Monello.gal
Then restart the game and see if it works.

Glück auf!

Thank you very much, it works.

Good News Have fun with the new cars.

Glück auf!

These cars are really fun to drive, congratulations to the development team!!
