I dunno if the Fanatec 911 Wheel is out but i have heard its a lot cheaper but better than G25. It also has 900 degrees of steering and 6speed gated shifter+reverse.

Its more expencive, comes with cheapy platic pedals and the shifter is all ropey and wobbles... G25 is as sturdy as the table you attach it too.

you're paying for the emblem. though, I cant help but like the actual wheel

I hate driving with sequential

If you are running Vista dump it, and put Xp on the PC But get the 2GB anyway...

Couldn't agree more...

apollo1600 please leave the "new thread" button alone. At least try to stay in the beginner's part of the forum.

Ya gotta love this attitude...

I like Rice with my curry.

Quote from Krammeh :

Actually, first one is a screen shot of a pre-release version of Race Driver Grid, I believe.

It is, its also an awful awful game.

I'm newish

I joined up about this time last year when my had my new wheel on order, but my PC blew before it arrived so I was forced to trade it for parts to get me back up and running, I did and I rebought my G25 last week, anyways I got myself and my mate s2 yesterday and I'm in love with this game.

I'm just new to using the gears and clutch and stuff, but you might catch me on some nooby servers!

say hi!

nothing like a old fashion bodge job

Thats so gonna be in fashion with that NFS game coming out! whos for car body stitches?

Sweet!!1!11!

Now all you need is a burberry Cap, some brainless 16 year old girlfriend in the passenger seat and thee worst dance music ever pumping out the windows and your away!

Is your Name Jayoh? lol

classic

I LOVE the british rally in this game, Chirdonhead 2 is the best in game rally track ever! I obsessed over it so much that I actually got it down pretty good on keyboard. now if my dam g25 ever gets here i will really own it.

Queens of the Stone Age are alright... I hate the rest of the "artists" you just listed.

"lol"

Quote from zeugnimod :

Wu Tang Clan? Mika? Avril Lavigne? :chairfall

As much as I detest Rap, Wu Tang are actually good live, w/e about Avril lavigne and I never heard of Mika, but, Queens of the stone age, Arcade Fire, Kings of Leon Muse and DJ Shadow! at the same concert is like heavan!

I'd rather Kill myself, Oxygen... now thats a lineup.

erm, i set up my G25 in a matter of minutes...

Yea I had the axis on accelerator/brake linked in the logitech properties, so I probably would have been there another 5 weeks had I not read the other post

You've been playing RBR using the keyboard? I don't envy you .

Welcome by the way .

Believe it or not I cut good times out too..

and thanks

Ah theres the fix! woohoo!

I spent 45 minutes trying to set a g25 up on my friends computer for him last night, 45 minutes!!! we eventually gave up. The setup seems a bit of a nightmare compared to say Toca 3 :/

Im aware Im missing something. but is there a g25 setup guide I can be pointed toward?

Quote from Viper93 :

Well the only way to truely simulate something is to have EVERYTHING about a car simulated real-time. This would mean everything down to how the hoodpins on a tintop would disrupt the tiny little bit of airflow, or how rivets create disturbances in airflow, the lise could go on and on of items that have not even begun to enter into simulations. What about driveline load and flex? Proper Chassis flex? The best chassis setup in the world will not perform if the chassis moves with an increase in forces. Gearplay is also not calculated so ATM everything is solid. This isn't even mentioning that nothing for simulations are calculated "real-time" LFS does calculate some of the basics but even then it's only at 100hz IIRC and thats nowhere near a RL clocking speed.

All in good time I'd wager. they are pretty close to simlating a mouse brain, the future will bring faster and faster computers capable of simulating all these things, where theres a will theres a way, and there is a will.
colour me an optimist if you will.

Quote from Mc21 :

RBR FTW!

nuff said.. why bother with any other rally games when this games out, and runs on a calculator?

Ive played the PC version, for about an hour then stopped, was initially impressed with all the incar functionality, free look radio lights horns all that crap, but the drive is boring.

Cant you (not 100% btw) minimise the program in question, then CTRL+ALT+DEL and finds it process right click it then set its affinity?

I know thats what we had to do with SL for a while to have use of duel core :o

feel free to flame me if Im talking out me arse.

Id definitley get the extra 512 of ram, but if your looking for a good AGP graphics card check this out http://www.elara.ie/products/r ... sp?productcode=MMEM310469

ordered this the other day, and since a PCIe card would need a new mobo and chip this card made a lot of sense.. lots of ram and quite fast and decently priced

Quote from tristancliffe :

I doubt any computer simulation will help an F1 driver ever

Those are big words, they lept off the page at me. look how far simulation has come in the last few years? look at the test restrictions in f1 now.. so it would make sense to push the technology as far as it can possible go. as far as i see, the only thing they cant simulate is the danger. and yanno if they really wanted to they actually could simulate that too. but thats silly talk. crash the sim and it will break your back lol

sry if this was said already tl;dr and all that.
