Just had a look - absolutely gorgeous, better graphics than GP2 IMHO.
Lets hope it is a real sim, and not a game.

Indeed enjoy !
Those pics looked very promising.
What do you mean by realistic scenaries ?
I'm only waiting for some moving images.
That could prove weather it's better or
wurse then it's biggest opponent.
I wonder when the official realise of GP2 will be.
Here in Holland I have already discovered the 21
zip files with GP2. There was only one comment.
The virus it carried is a Burglar-virus with some kind of code number,
so don't take your changes unless you now what your doing.

I really agree with Neypert! The name of this new F1 "game" (I hope it
won't be just a game) is STARTING GRID. And it looks much better than
every existing racing simulation games!

Visiware has made available 11 screen shots at www.visiware.com.
You'll certainly recognize the Monaco Grand Prix on some of them...

I think it's really worth spending some time to have a look at them!

Best regards,

Christian

Hi all.

I agree that the screen shots were quite impressive. The background (buildings
mountains, water and so on) is extremely well done, but am I the only one
who had the impression that the cars weren't really on the ground? I think
they should reword the shadows. I really had the impression they were floating
a few inches from the track.

In the refuelling shot it looks as thought the fuel is
being put into the drivers seat !!

Very nice...but I do agree, the cars look like they are floating. That,
and I fear that this is going to be an arcade (PSX, etc.) game, and not a
simulation....

hi,
thanks for taking a look a it.

As you're concerned by the program
being a game of a sim,
i can assure you that we are doing
our max to have it feel a good sim
(F1GP2 is really good at it...)

The pics you saw are now 2 month old
and the cars are far better now...

AVI/MPEGS will be posted soon on our
web site with complete lap.

If you have any questions do not
hesitate, as we are very intested by
players point of view on F1 games.

thanks,
til next,

Nicolas Eypert
Developer
F1 Game
Visiware France.

Ta for the info. I had a look at the page, thought it looked like the F1
game from Sony Interactive coming soon. Anyway I wrote to them and got
the following reply :-


Date: Thu, 22 Jun 1995 08:57:26 +0200

Many thanks for your support on Starting Grid, here are more infos :
We are working on it from 2 years now, and we just starting to give some
info. This game is before anything a simulation we worked with Peugeot
sport team for the real datas and the 16 tracks are very very close to
the real ones, closest than any other sports sim yet. Our photographs
took thousands of pictures on the races for the texture mapping.
We will give more info on the web within 10 days.Stay tune.
Thank you again.

        That version was one from last year. It does not work as you cannot race.

Looks good, and at least you keep potential customers informed !.

Hope that you release a playable demo, unlike some other company I could
mention !!!
