Agreed. I've just got it working on Win98SE after a week of trying. Seems changing from Asus to nVidia drivers did the trick for me. I've got 512MB and it's no problem. I'm running at 800x600x16 on ~30fps almost all the time.by downforce - Grand Prix 4
Can you post a URL for where you got these updates LS? Also, if you really want to upgrade GPL, I can highly recommend getting an Active Labs GPL shifter. I got mine delivered last week and it's fantastic! Unfortunately, it adds another level of difficulty to an already difficult sim The top pic looks like Crowthorne (sp?) at Kyalami??? What tracks are the other pics from? Check outby downforce - Grand Prix 3
Does it annoy anyone else that the screenshots are all from outside the cars? I'm much more interested in what it looks like from the cockpit. After the long wait for GP3 I just can't get excited about GP4 until I'm unwrapping the box. Cheers. -Nickby downforce - Grand Prix 3
...but most of all Jack Brabham. Well, I spent the weekend at Phillip Island watching the historic racing and the real bonus was that I got to see Jack Brabham drive one of his own GP cars as well as a car he used way back when at Indy. That was a monster. It only hada two speed gearbox, but a big Offy V8. Not only that, but we also got to see Paul Stoddart racing a way old Maserati. Shame Iby downforce - Grand Prix 3
I really want a joystick to use as a gear shifter. I used to have a T2 which had a gear shifter. I added two paddle shifters to the wheel and life was good. But the T2's wore out really quickly. Anyway, I now have a LWFFGP wheel and the excellent Redline Race Controls pedals(http://www.wave.co.nz/~lakewood/Redline2.htm). I've looked around for joysticks and all I can find are hi-tecby downforce - Grand Prix 3
I'd be happy with no pics at all. Just links to pics are fine. In fact, I much prefer usenet to www forums, although usenet has its faults too. Hopefully sense will prevail and images won't become out of control like the alphaf1 forum. Of course, the only people you'll hear saying this stuff are those of us with dialups Cheers -Nickby downforce - Grand Prix 3

Thanks anyway dave. I just recreated the profile from scratch and it works ok now. Cheers -Nickby downforce - Grand Prix 3
Wow this thread has really grown overnight ! This week has been good, mortal - 207kms in total. To Zscott - I have plenty of idea how lucky I am. Imagine how I felt when we got the news that Albert Park was getting an F1 race. I work in the Melbourne CBD which is only about 5kms or so from Albert Park and you can clearly hear the F1 cars from there. Although I haven't actually experienby downforce - Grand Prix 3
I live about 7kms from Albert Park, which is well within cycling distance. (Actually I rode 70kms last SUnday on by bike) But today I was on my motorbike - I jus stopped by the park because I was in the area anyway. Ahhhh....the grass is always greener isn't it? I'd love to be able to go and watch F1 tests Cheers -Nickby downforce - Grand Prix 3
Finally I'm making an on topic post. I had to rebuild my PC last week and I can't get my LWFF profiler to apply the profile in GP3. I backed up the profile so I know this profile has worked in the past. I have "Apply profile to game" turned on, but it doesn't map all the buttons on the wheel to hte funcitons I've assigned. I can drive OK but I had some buttons seby downforce - Grand Prix 3
Hi All Just reading morbid's post about going through withdrawal has inspired me. I just went for a quick blast down to Albert Park to check on things and I have to say I just love riding around the circuit while they're building it. Most of the stands are up and the signage is being painted. Huge piles of gravel are waiting to be raked out into the gravel traps. You can just _feel_by downforce - Grand Prix 3
