I can no longer run the rFactor demo on my pc, as the time limitting/copy protection code (Trymedia) disabled the program when I manually changed the date on my pc. This "bug" was acknowledged by ISI on the RSC forums a few weeks ago, and they stated that they are working to resolve the problem. ...

link to OLR forum, to follow.. http://www.onlineracin.com/forum/tm.asp?m=40869 Mr Nobody, did a dang fine post... here is a copy of the text, but you should check out the link too... :) Well, I got really curious after I started to get mad about the "ALL NEW GAME ENGINE" claim that EA...

Hi, I thought I should try the rbr demo, and I looks very interesting. So, I looked up my ancient Thrustmaster Formula T2 wheel (analog, with separate pedals for throttle and brake) Removed the dust from the wheel and hooked it up to my precious game station (pc). Added and calibrated it in...

This happened to a buddy of mine, fuzzy dash and gauges. Turned out it was a problem with the TextureSetSize variable in the rend_dxg.ini file. The information below was copied directly from a post by Bill Anderson to this newsgroup some time ago. It should solve your...

Hi guys, just getting back into NR2003 and trying to play with my dad online using IP... we both have 3meg cable connections. I show he connects but then get the "receive throughput fell to unacceptable level, error, what causes this, I use to race a lot a couple years ago with another friend and...

its official, gtr2 is in development :o) http://www.blimeygames.com/games.php

I just tried the GTR v2 demo and man what a piece of junk! It would not load properly and when it did it would not calibrate my wheel. What I did manage to see looked like a very bad arcade game. As far as I can tell, GPL is STILL the best. What a disappointment. If I am missing something, someone...

My cheap LCD filmed by my lousy camera... Not a recipe for success. But maybe my barely controlled lap at the Ring will show non PS3 owners why I have been converted by the Sony Borg. So much of GT5 is a disappointment. But this really does feel as good to drive as it looks in the...

With rFactor now the most central part of sim racing, it seems to me that one of the hurdles for it to overcome is convincing the public of the authenticity of it's "Mods" - both the tracks and particularly the cars that will be depicted via rFactor but created via 3rd parties. Will it be perceived...

"The Regulars" have been running since the fall of 2001 and when the season opens in Mosport Oct 4th it will be our 7th year of running open wheelers. We've stuck with low power cars that don't require hours of setup fiddling before each session and have a proven handicapping formula that allows...

Thanks Bill, on the strength of your reply I just ordered it hastle free from Sendit.com. It was cheaper too, so thanks a lot cheers Glenn >>>> >>> >>> >>

Looks to fill the niche that was just talked about here on RAS. Looks interesting and Im looking forward to some reviews. ---------- For racing at home, Logitech at E3 introduces the G25 Racing Wheel. The system includes a six-speed shifter and clutch pedal, two force-feedback motors, an 11-inch...

The dirty little pedophile bitch Michael Jackson is dead and gone = good riddance. And behold his popularity - speaks volumes about this ******** of a planet. (newsgroup relevance on) And Max Mosley has at least 1 foot in the grave but the **** is still kicking a little. (newsgroup...

Not sure if this is a bug or intentional, but in a race yesterday I got some good acceleration out of a corner and moved in for an overtake. As I got nearer the opponent's car just disappeared which was very disconcerting. At this point I realized there is probably a high chance that said...

I updated the NVIDIA driver to 195.62 on my GeForce 8800GT and it screwed up my rFactor graphics big time. Anyone else experienced problems? I rolled back to version 182.08 and all is restored as before

A picture of the G25 pedals outside of the casing he http://tinyurl.com/rnkw5 Maybe not so good for the warranty but there could be some scope for cockpit builders looking for optimum pedal spacing?

For a long time I am searching for the correct way to setup FFB, and finaly I got it. To set things rightly, I first have set my FOV correctly, the hight of screen correctly, and latency (it turned out that this wasn't necessary) correctly. I determined the latency very low, at 0.000715 in...

So what's up with Racing Legends? I see that the forums are gone. Does this mean the thing's finally been put out of it's misery?
