: Hello,
: I have read a couple different messages here in r.a.s that
: there isn't any sounds from other cars in the GP2.. ..is
: this true?? Is it a bug or has it been left out intentionally?
--clip--clip--
Looks like 3d-sound has been on the chop list to boost overall game
performance. At least I haven't experienced '3-D and Doppler Sound, and
digital music- completely absorbing sound effects' but spinning a la
Eddie Irvine in Monaco. And 3d-sound was restricted to rear wheels, I
was spinning on all four after Loews :-)
There is too much game in 486dx4-100 and SVGA mode on. Single practice
gives pale impression of the graphics. Frame rate is about 12fps at
best in qualifying, with other cars ot the track. With all details
turned off! And definately no sound from other cars, even thou the
manual states 'Other FX' sound option
With S3 Vision868 board and vesa-mode (640x480x256) there is
some palette distortions: In Monaco's track profile the sea is golden.
Can't complain, maybe they have really fine sunsets in Mediterranean or
some serious overflow at ***.
Anyway, game is an absolute fun to play. Watch out the first and second
gear in acceleration and be very carefull in braking... There's lots of
smoke in your mirrors.

: P.S. I read that GP2 is out here in Finland.. ..have to wake up
: early tomorrow.. :)
There's plenty of boxes in Suomalainen Kirajakauppa, but according to
pre-prices Suomalainen cashes 30FIM more by being the firts one in
Finland.
