Gonna try it tonight !

[krakbuis]

just tried it, it
Only played single-player so far. Will try multi tonight.

If you want the other cars just race 1 lap races on the level you can still beat them easily.


....on-line works great !!
when you're connected to a host, press escape, this will reveal your options (pits/join/options etc)
You might want to get the fastest car before you get online ,for the obvious reasons ofcourse ;)

[AndreasNystrom]

Hehe.. i prefer the Suzuki Swift over the rwd and turbo car!

especially at the rallycross track, its just so much fun!. The physics is better then GPL, especially the tirephysics and collision-detection.

If you bump into another car in GPL, it generally explode and cars flies to moon, but in this game you can even drive fast into the tirewalls and it just feels so real!, or bump into other cars without risking too much (except for a spin)

the multiplayer.. well.. it works great!, even for modemusers.i think its better then GPL too
you see nametags over the other cars when you approach them, easy to tell who is who then, aswell as each car is personalised aswell as you see their licenseplates

it gives the cars a personal touch!. great idea of them.

the only bad thing is that the program freezes my computer once in a while when hosting etc.

i'm downloading it as i type... on isdn it will take some time however..

Very good game! Love it!

[mahelgel]

can't find a way to get it to recognize my joystick, so i had to test it with a mouse.. seemd ok, but hard to tell driving with the mouse :

Ive tried setting my joystick as a wheel with two axis in the controllpanel, but no difference. anyone who has an idea?

[krakbuis]

you can only use combined pedals (single axis)

[mahelgel]

well... acceleration/brake is on one axis, and steering on the other... shouldn't that work?

[krakbuis]

i guess it should

It feels like I'm driving through jam, there is absolutely no sensation of speed eventhough I'm going 150+ kph.

[A3]

I drive 160km/h on the highway everday, and on my computer is seems fairly accurate.

My god, how much fun is this? Especially multiplayer, it rocks !

[AndreasNystrom]

karlth might use a ATI card pheraps?? sounds like FPS problems.

I feel it has great speedsensation too!.

it crashes a lot for me.. , you use the same systemspecs?

[AndreasNystrom]

strange!

anyway. There is a new version "L" out now.
No more crashes on my computer

Just played it for 1.5h nonstop

[karlth]

It seemed slightly better when I ran it windowed.

The physics feel nice apart from the fact that no road car that I know of understeers at 70kph.

Can somebody say West Brothers little test project...?

A hint for those who don't have the turbo car!

Play singel player with as many AI you can set the level at PRO and you will get 48 credits each race, and then you only have to do 4 / 5 races.

[The Kanisteri]

Woah!

I hope they add some snow and ice someday!

Alteratively, just hack around a bit in the cfg.txt

[A3]

Man, online play is AWESOME! Just won a couple of races, clean racing all the way !

[A3]

Stickshift, I saw that you're hosting, but somehow i don't get a available games list anymore. :

[The Kanisteri]

Hey. Should we establish our own game with password?

[The Kanisteri]

game: AtlasF1 league
password: Atlas

?
How does that sound?

[Chrissy Boy]

Great Kani!

As it seems that the list of games is sometimes not displayed, and there is to servers to use, we have to say wich server to use.

The one that works for me now is : 213.93.222.114

The normal server is : 60.30.60.159

[Viktor]

Good fun to drive online with "real" drivers (even if I get beten with 20+ sec )

/Viktor

[Viktor]

If you have problem with FPS then press "F" during the game, now the chassi will be removed and you will driva a buggy with only a driver and 4 wheels, very cool

Open cfg.txt and find the line that starts with "selected car". Change it to "Selected Car XR GT TURBO".
