Well it looks like this is a slow and painfull death. From the 12,000 posts per month in 2000, we're now to almost less than 500. A thread or two per day if we exclude non-related cross-postings. Perhaps we shall all move on to rscnet, and sacrifice our freedom of speech on an ugly web...

>"Xenon" > wrote > Gran Turismo 4 has both 480p *and* 1080i HDTV gameplay modes. Those 480p vs 1080i comparison screens show very low-resolution textures. I mean really low-res, they look like something coming out of the 3dfx patch for Nascar Racing 2. Shameful for...

rFactor : 40, perhaps 50 people online MAX at peak times. Leagues are careful not to switch yet. Plenty of "possibilities" for mods but how many of them will 1) ever see the finish light 2) be of an actual quality and 3) be worth if it there's nobody racing them? GTL : Great cars on washed out...

Do you have any news about Geoff ? Any website / blog ? He was just so successfull with his Grand Prix series, I wonder if he's working on a new one or on something else ? Cheers, Y.

Just grabbed GTR for £5 for my new laptop - just played it and what a bargain! I wondered if anyone could advise on visual set-up for best performance? My laptop has: Core 2 Duo T5500 1.66ghz 2 gig RAM ATi Mobility Radeon x1400 I'm usually a console gamer; just bought few games as my nephew...

I'm trying to understand the resulting torques that act back on the axle. For a free rolling wheel travelling purely in the longitudinal direction and with a slip ratio > 0, it will output a force of say 100N. As well as pushing the vehicle forward it also creates a torque on the axle which is then...

I was wondering when a developer creates a game based on a licensed race franchise, how much control the franchise has over the developer, such as allowing track editors and so fourth.

I'm travelling from Canada to Brussels on business next week, and since I won't have time to pop over to Germany, just wondering if there's anyplace in Brussels where I can buy GTR. Thanks, Zim

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 folks, I'm a long-time racing simmer (started with Indy500-The Simulation by Papyrus) who usually lurks here. I'm not up to date on the latest sims, since I still have much fun with GPL and Nascar2003, and more recently, RBR. Recently I got talked into trying a projector on the computer. I...
