rec.autos.simulators

I just moved GPL to my ACER laptop and I have the following problems :

1) Game is running at double speed eveyrthing is going at 2X real speed
2) for the moment I'm playing with keyboard and the only active keys I can use for direction and speed control are the function keys (F1-F12) and it's not really convenient.

Thanks for the help

1) Apply the CPU fix to take gpl to version 1.2.0.2

2) get a little joypad maybe?

I "season 2" maybe, but right now I'd like to be able to play with R and F for throttle and J and K for steering for example

Thanks for the help

There is no patch or anything special you need to do to make gpl compatable
with an A64, aother than the CPU fix for CPU's over 1.4Ghz or so. Suggest
you re-apply the fix since your symptoms are exactly what the CPU fix is
supposed to fix. Don't apply the Disco Fix after the CPU fix since the CPU
fix includes it.

for throttle and J and K for steering for example

You can pick up a cheap joypad for about a fiver, other than that your are
probably stuck with the limitations of your laptop keyboard. You could try
gplshift though, might help.

If you use the latest GEM utility for starting GPL, in the
configuration window you'll find a setting to disable these
powersavers.  SpeedswitchXP at http://www.diefer.de/speedswitchxp/ can
be used too.

OK, thanks for the help, installing GEM and playing with the speedstep wolved my problem

Thanks again, now my rank will go down again (he says full of hope)
