What I've found to help with this is to switch on the Throttle Help for most of the GTR's (except FXR) and the Single Seaters. The side effect of course is that off the line you can be stranded a bit, so you still need a few double-clicks thrown in there.
Mouse definitely. I still use a mouse and you'll get far more precision with it over the keyboard. Just practice, practice practice. I can now just about control the single seaters with a mouse (you'll need an S2 license for those cars).
Some tips though when using the mouse with the XRT - set the button reduction rate (I think that's what it's called under the control section) to a low value, that way the acceleration increases more gradually and helps prevent wheel spin and the backend snapping out.
Fantastic setup you've got there, I really like the video footage you posted earlier. Any chance of more??? (LFS maybe) especially with that new screen!!
Yes, I stayed a little longer (have another replay) and yes he was still wrecking, sitting on the racing line etc. Didn't change his name funnily enough.
Yes, I'll probably do that, once I've worked out the server we were on! Thanks for the player name tip guys.
I can confirm this as I was on the same server as Kajojek PL (even got the replay somewhere - auto save replay does come in handy every now and then ). Was a real pain in the ass and this person spoilt a lot of fun we were having.
Sounds a bit like the old Car Wars role playing game, remember those - you had an arena laid out on paper with paper cars, hit points, weapons etc! Really enjoyed that.
It maybe me (probably!), but I've extracted the gloves into the data\dds folder (taking a backup of Gloves_A.dds) but they don't appear in game. Where do I select them from?
