More NFS Shift, more movie action, more... ZZzzzz......
Yes, I know, get a life! But once in a while something comes along and gives you
permission to have fun again. At my age that usually involves taking a double dose of ibuprophen for my dodgy back, or being a devil and eating a whole packet of cookies instead of just half. Shift continues to make me smile, and the camera control util released by Racer_S has added a new dimension to the experience. Now I can set the FOV at about 0.7 for the most spectacular TripleHead experience in (my) sim racing history. It's just... well, amazing! Sadly I can't persuade Fraps to capture that as smoothly as I'd like at a decent resolution, but I have -- fairly predictably -- made this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgAA-CPNLVU .... to show some of the additional fun Racer_S has brought to the party. The cockpit shots there are set at about 0.7 FOV. Imagine the rest of the cockpit either side and that's what's making me grin this week. It even makes up for the fact that this mod adds horrible delays to all the loading sequences. They're annoying, but the mod's free and on balance it's worth the hassle.

Watching it made me come to this conclusion, all the AI drive the same. It doesn't matter which car you drive, they all drive they same way. I'm driving the McLaren F1, and I swear, the AI drive the same way with me at the 'Ring, as they did in your video. Same mistakes, same turns, etc. There may be some randomness in it, but it really strikes me they drive the same. I'm now anticipating how they will screw up, and take advantage of it. |

Why is that sports car rotating around its center like a noodle on a wet plate? Yikes... |
