Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to play GP2 over the modem. I
was quite disappointed. The frame rate was around 12 fps. It was very
difficult to drive.

Here is the setup:

SPECS Computer 1 Computer 2
----- ---------- ----------
CPU P90 P166
RAM 32MB 48 MB
VID ATI 64 (2MB) Number 9 (2MB)
Comm 16550 16550
Modem US Robotics US Robotics
(28800) (28800)

We were racing in SVGA mode with the graphics set to AUTOMATIC and the
detail set to min, (1 tick).

Does anyone out there in GP2 land have any clues on how to make the
modem play any smoother?

Did you use the uart switch on loading it on both machines?

Well it is good to see that nothing has changed from GP1 to GP2 as far as the
modem goes. Just another example of MPS products going down the tubes.

-- Right Set your baud rate at 1900 and st frame s at 8fps then switch off
most of detail in mirrors this should work fine.
