I love the close ratio box The drag race off the grid is classic, all you hear is Baa baa baa baa as everyone bounces the redline. Just be sure to smash 2nd and 3rd quickly

I hope to see some good races tonight, still find im being hit off because of some sleepy driver that cant find the brakes.

Quote from keiran :

Loving the little 500!! So much better for racing online, can get away with some contact. Although is it just me or are the collisions a bit strange? I hit a few people in front when graphically my car wasn't touching them. Also having a problem with my momo wheel, I can't use the paddles because if I downshift it turns the ignition off... so had to resort to buttons on the wheel.

Tyre squeal is nice, but is way over the top. I'm struggling to know when I'm locking brakes.

Seems my sim racing driver gets just as fed up waiting for the race start

Ah ha so you were K Smart Yeah I have to say you can get away with some contact *some*, there is an issue of knowing where the front of the car really is. But so far i've been really close with some drivers, I think it does depend on the connections.

As for wheel locking i've dropped the brake settings down alot, and wont use more that half way on the pedal in braking. The car slows down easily its just the fwd grip thats lacking :P

Quote from The Moose :

Your driver and license folders now have to be copied to the netkar folder in 'my documents'

I'm having a few issues... the worst of which is the sim crashing when i try and join a server grrrrr. Waiting for a quick fix.

Same for me, I was wondering about the license stuff.

Should I delete the old beta?

EDIT: ok I think ive done everything correctly. But still have the server issue

Here are Concept Racing's Skins - Cars #10 #32 #13 #15

Hope everything is in order

Ok cheers Moose. I think I may steer clear of the drivingitalia servers for awhile If you could get another event hosted with your team that would be sweet.

Damn and blast to the update coming on Saturday, I've been living for the Friday all week lol.

For Carey. Well there is an option in the garage to allow clutch, and ofc to make sure you have it detected by the game. But as far as I know even with the clutch down and in gear while on the grid, you may find the car roll abit. At least i've had it plenty of times.

This is starting to drain me...

Over the past few days i've been in plenty of races where some drivers seem to think they can just dive down the inside of even out brake the car infront. In result i've been smashed off a number of times, ofc leaving the car destroyed.

Now with the Fiat 500 coming I can only see this happening more often because its a tintop. I will just pray that they have updated the collision detection more.

But I take it the DrivingItalia.net servers are always messy?? Or is it just me?

Also 5haz, is your driver name J.Shaw? I think I saw you on a server with the F1600.

On another note. Everytime I go into a server I always find my wheel isn't centered correctly. After leaving and setting up the wheel again its ok. Is this happing for anyone else??

Quote from logitekg25 :

thankyou now just waiting for the page to load

EDIT: how much does that kit (if i read right :shrug cost? does it come with the gfx card too? i think my graphics card that is coming will have it

What graphics card did you buy?

But it also depends on what you mean by kit? Since the only thing you get with a graphics card deal is the simple red and blue 3D glasses.

The real cinema 3D kit is about $500 since you need a monitor that displays the correct stuff that works with the real plastic glasses.

Yeah was great racing with you guys last night, well to be correct I was just trying to keep up with you. After I got control on the F2000 I could just get into the 1.29's, I shall hunt around for a setup and give it another go tonight

But to my surprise thats the first time i've had one of the front wheels lock under braking. I guess I wasn't pushing the car to the limit under braking

And about Dru, he would have been about in the coming months. He did plan to enter the LFS light cart hosted by NDR, but has pulled out. So I dont think theres a high chance I can get him to come on nKp.

Coming by next Friday

"08/31/2009 – We have the pleasure to introduce some new screenshots related to the next release of netKar PRO v.1.1 (www.netkar-pro.com). These images feature the exclusive FIAT 500 Abarth Assetto Corsa during a multiplayer session at Aosta Grand Prix Circuit. This addon will be included in next release of the public beta of netKar PRO v.1.1, expected by September, 4"

Top stuff Moose. Was wondering about the actual date of release, can we get any inside info on the handling?

My brother has been saying how nKp seems to be built around single seaters, and how a tin top may not feel correct. *But that was only from his observation of the sim*

But still I really can't wait for this update.

Quote from logitekg25 :

do they sell 3-d glasses? i want that same thing, i will just race with 3-d glasses

Well I bought the new graphics card when UK dealers were giving away free copy of the new batman game and a pair of 3D glasses. You can easily make a pair.

But just one note, it does suck FPS away. Even on my 200 series card you can see its just a tad slower. But on lfs its fine since you do 300fps easy.


BTW, Dmt Those are some really nice shots. That Spdo skin in yellow looks great

Quote from r4ptor :

How's the colors with the glasses? In the old days, colored stereo looked gray (depended/varied on what colors were used to create the 3D illusion)

Its not bad, there are some colours that dont stand out that well. I think the blues get lost abit, the already grey areas get darker.. well most the colours are darker. Green seems to stand out well and reds. But it does looks really impressive when you see a group of cars.

Just playing around with my gfx card again.

I know they aren't really RAW screenshots but they may aswell go in this thread.
LFS is not fully supported by nvidia's 3D vision, so it doesnt quite work as you would expect. For instance the in-car view doesnt work as the blue and red channels move depending on your FOV.

But if you have some 3D glasses check em out

Hehe, just got my new graphics card. (GTX260 Palit)

Running pretty sweet on most of my games now and with the Stereoscopic 3D nvidia stuff as I got a pair of free nvidia 3D specs with my GFX today and it's pretty amazing.

I've tried it with CoD5 and the new batman game, also the test shots from the nvidia thing. And it looks great and just by accident it was still turned on when I went to play TF2.

So here are some cool 3D shots from the game, if your lucky and have a pair of 3D specs check them out

Sorry for 2mb png's

Erm, ok...

I would really like to know why you didn't ask for permission to use my ufrc video. You screwed up all the camera work and made it pointless in the first place. The video look horrible now because you changed the music, making the video completely out of sync.

Next time please ask before using my videos, it's not hard to do and even falke didnt find it hard to simply post and ask for permission on the UFRC video thread.

I spend alot of time on them and hate to see that someone has destroyed them.
