Video game development is full of names that have made groundbreaking steps you’ve never even heard about. Shawn Nash is a behind-the-scenes pioneer responsible for SODA Off Road Racing’s incredible physics, Papyrus’ graphical advancements and iRacing’s use of laser scan data for the physical track surfaces.
This interview with RSC, published in 2021, details his early life and career, through both his own company, Papyrus, Electronic Arts, to his time at iRacing.
Better known today as the developer of Skyrim and Fallout, Bethesda once had a well-respected racing game franchise and were deep into development of a licensed Skip Barber Racing title that never released.
Kylotonn have released the slightly underwhelming previously announced patch for WRC Generations that does move the sim forward, but doesn’t apparently fix the main issue people are having with the unresponsive throttle. Console users will not get this patch until 2023 and all platforms appear to still be waiting for the throttle fix.
