I saw a video online the other day which showed the BMW's from GTR2 racing... However when I choose a grid of BMW's in my game they are all the same color..? Is there a web site that is hosting different skins for this car.. as I can't find any on RSC..?

Well, If all goes to plan.. next week I will be sitting in my Nixim Polecat... Along with my Frex DFP.... Shifter etc etc !!! My visa card is moaning.. my misses is moaning... but do I care...

Hello all, Received GTR for X-mas, went to install it, read the biz about Starforce Copy Protection and decided to abort the install. Is Starforce a bad deal? Research on Google shows good and bad. Some folks claim it slowed their PC down and screwed with cd-rom burning. While others say it...

Hi, Unfortunatly, there isn't too much discussion in other forums about the progress in Racing Legends. Does anyone know if the developers have taken advantage of the delay in their work by utilising new technologies such as hardware Physics Processing Units? This would surely aid their goal of...

Anybody care to share impressions? I have a DFP, which is a smooth, precise wheel, but the cog slack kinda drives me nuts (clicking sound when changing rotation directions; 'dead', no-tension feeling when on a straight; etc.). Does the G25 eliminate that, or just reduce it? How does the FF feel?...

I want a wheel that is precise, has no (or minimal) slop or "dead zone", and is capable of providing good road feel through the FF. The DFP supports 900 degree mode. This is supposedly a lot of fun, and combined with DXTweak it provides a lot of flexibility. That's easily worth an extra $50 to me,...

Hello, I am unable to create an account when using the multiplayer mode. On the other hand, on my serial number card, it is indicated that I have to register on gtr-game.com website first but I don't see anything like registration procedure. If I move into GTR game and try the registration knob...

What are some of the most active car sim forums now? Type of sim doesn't matter. Thanks!

eScrew Welcome to eScrew! eScrew is eScrew and this is eScrew story. eScrew will tell you eScrew story if you promise eScrew to consider eScrew story as joke. eScrew story is very funny. eScrew story is so funny that eScrew will have to take break from time to time because eScrew needs some rest...

in my sim, i calculate the torque in this way: torque = input.Throttle * GetMaxTorqueAtRPM(currentEngineRpm) * gearbox.Ratio * DifferentialRatio * TransmissionEfficiency; wheels have mass, so they have some inertia. but there is nothing that models the engine inertia. this causes the engine to...

Howdy All I've working on my retirement project which is an auto enthusiast website called Cat's Ass Kustoms: Parts Performance, Passion - News for Motorheads. It is safe for work (no porn) and geared to those passionate about cars. http://www.catsasskustoms.com All the latest news on cars from...

Just some FYI for anyone who is considering an 8800 purchase. I picked up an 8800GTS on an eVGA trade-up for my 7900GTO, since the trade-up window was going to close soon. First off, you can crank some unbelievable levels of AA and AF at high res on this thing. The Anandtech article was not...

Thinking about picking this up - just can't decide if I want to get it as a sim for my PC, or a fun couch racer for my PS2. Cockpit view or only bumper/hood/kite view? Kendt

Nothing spectacular (apart from GTL itself) - only interesting if you don't have the game or want to see what it looks like in DX9 mode with hi-res textures (all full except high-detail wheels and trackside characters). For reference, I'm running on an AMD Opteron 144 oc'd to 2.6Ghz, 1gig RAM,...

So I'm super excited to try the new rFactor and mods, and one of my AL ForceRS paddles breaks! I don't see any spares available through ActLabs - anyone got a source or dead wheel they want to sell? I'd snap up a LogiG25 if they were out. Also - has anyone seen 1150 of rFactor to be *much* less...

Track editing is apparently becoming possible: http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?t=215231 As the "GPL of rally sims" - it'd be great to see it get the same level of modding support and long life. Who'd like to see RC2000's stages in RBR :)? Kendt

I'm watching the AMA superbike race while I'm downloading rFactor, and those idiotic popup sounds for *every* damn info popup (and a whole selection of annoying sounds) have me ready to turn the damn thing off. What are these stupid producers thinking?! This isn't Pop-Up videos or something. I'm...

Just a followup to my whining about the X800XL - Put my 9700Pro back in and installed the Omega version of the 5.7 cats, I got a 13MTri/sec boost from what I was seeing the last time I ran it (45->58, was on 5.4 or 5.5, I think)). Running 1280x960 2xAA/4xAF and everything is great. Kendt

Long story short: Had a 9700Pro in my box, Cat 5.6 gave 50+ FPS in practice easily even w/FSAA. Upgraded drivers to 5.7, but never tried GTR. Just upgraded to X800XL, now GTR is giving less than half that! Ran the ATI cleaner after removing drivers before the card swap, GTRConfig ran...
