Apparently gt5 with the latest patch is pretty good and much better than before.

I havent personally tried it but i will.

The problem i have with iracing is that i never quite feel im in control of the car they just seem to be made harder drive than they should. Maybe its my hardware not correctly configured or a setup im using is crap but i just feel like there is something missing.

I can jump in a car on lfs and straight away feel the car, can feel its limits and just get a general good feel factor. Same goes for gt5, nkpro, rf2 even gpl!

Dont get me wrong tho i dont hate iracing i think its decent enough but when you see stupid stuff going on with the physics like on some of the videos it just makes you think.

And why would they not create a flat physics engine which all cars use then change attributes to the cars, why have every car using seperate physics? Just seems a bit old school and possibility of so many issues.

Im sure gt5 just has 1 main physics component and they just change the cars attributes, weight, power, heights, widths etc and the physics engine just sorts the rest out.

I saw that earlier, looks promising.

Im going to try it out this afternoon after work.

I wish.

I'm in Meanwood/Headingley, get a pretty good view of them heading in to land though

im in yeadon just opposite the runway

i work in meanwood sometimes, a place called greenwood mount near the new waitrose.

Maybe.. But its just so blatently obvious in iracing!

Awesome! Saw one heading for Leeds and Bradford so clicked it to see what colour/kind of plane it was. Went out into my back garden and there it was!

Were you live?

I tried the rf2 on old spa with the f1/2/3 cars.

I didnt think it was bad at all.

Yea but no matter what car you drive irl you can always feel alot through the brake pedal and its easy to get good braking without locking etc. I feel iracing have just made it harder than it really would be.

I did feel that the v8 handled much better but i still have that steering problem so ive been avoiding playing it.

Quote from Bose321 :

This game looks like a winner to me already. Just for the fact that they already seem to support the Fanatec leds and it's the only game I have seen in a while that has an animated steering wheel in the cockpit that goes beyond 10 degrees like most new games.

and moves as quick as your real wheel.

I want to know why my wheel feels shit.

At 900 degs in windows and 900 in game i can turn say 90degrees left or right and it feels ok but if i turn 100 degs it feels like 130, 120 feels like 150, 130 feels like 170 etc etc.

Its like the first 90 degrees are perfect but then its trying to cram everything else in the last part of the turn.

Its always done this but not noticable on some..

What am i setting up wrong?

Cleaned the garage and tucked it away for the night

I just posted them

i like it, nice work

im actually writing this for a friend but hes having issues atm.

the problems he is having is stuttering in windows 7, he is using DPC latency checker to check the lagging and he gets massive red spikes.

you can hear crackling through the speakers everytime you get a red spike, the pc will freeze sometimes for a couple seconds.

after a while the red spikes become less frequent but still kicks him out of LFS for apparently laggin when he is driving round and makes the sound go all crackly

his system specs are

win 7 64bit
Q6600 (default)
not sure on m/b
4gb ram
net gear network card
nvidia graphics (fairly decent)
650w power pack
2 monitors

all drivers are up to date and its a fresh install of win7

we have tried;

disabling audio enhancements
disabling wmpnetwk service
removing 2nd HDD
running a wired connection to the pc rather than wireless


he didnt have this problem on vista but as soon as he swapped over to windows 7 it all started to happen.

:P

people moaned about the monsters in farcry 1 but i loved it, 1st has been the best so far in my opinion.

Ive had my Imperator for a while now and run without fault.. but just recently over the last comple of days its been giving me a headache!

the mouse will just stop responding randomly.. ive tried it in different USB slots and sometimes it will work for 10 mins sometimes 10 seconds and the lights just go out.

atm i have the G15 keyboard plugged into the USB and the mouse plugged into the G15 and so far its not hadan issue (this was the original config when it first went)

i was just wondering if it was something to do with the mouse itself or software causing issues maybe?

love the mouse, dont want to have to buy another

...oh look at that... just as i go to click submit.. mouse stops responding and lights go out on mouse and g15.. mouse still not working.

adam, are you on corsasport?

my snow shots from last year

I would use it, IF there was a decent amount of people populating it.

I fear that normal race servers just wont be used because people either drift, cruise or want stats to work their way through..

I think the days of just racing for fun are dissapearing slowly.

team rules wouldnt know :P

i want to know why is it that when im trying drive round corners the back end always tries to oversteer at 50mph.. no throttle, infact its usually when i come off throttle and coast into the corner.

i assume its setup related because people can not think this is a good thing..

not tried many other cars apart from the c6r and ford gt both of which suffer from it..

also why is it that i can go out for 10 laps and set a fast time then if i pit and go back out the first lap i do is much quicker? are the tyres still at their best from exiting pits? i thought they sorted it out.
