I just noticed that the newest patct for Live For Speed is out bringing them
up to version 0.1E which supposedly adds multiple controller support. If I
had more than one controlled I'd let you know how it works ;)

It works great. I haven't been running the dirt track much in FWD (or
anything else).  Hooked up the Performance Pedals and immediately knocked a
second off my lap times.

I was able to set-up my multiple controllers, apparently without a problem.  But
now the demo doesn't allow me to select a track.  It simply says "No Track", and
does not allow me to select the Blackwood Track (although it's listed).

Anybody have any thoughts on what could be wrong?

Thanks,
Bert

Multiple controllers working great for me.  Can't believe what a slideshow
LFS is, even at 800x600 with a PIII-1Ghz and Geforce 2 GTS...grrr.

Speaking of that, has anyone found any graphics options
besides mirrors which can affect LFS frame rate greatly?

I prefer to drive in-car with mirrors, and I get
low 20s on a Celeron 1200/100MHz motherboard/Ge3 Ti200/384 RAM.
This is against 3 or 4 AI.  A full field puts the frame rate
in the ***s.  Would like a little higher, but don't want to
lose the mirrors.

Thanks

Got it worked out.  Had to re-install the entire latest demo (with the new patch as
part of it), and everything works great.  Not only do I now have the use of multiple
controllers, but the lower 2 buttons on my LWFF now work, as well.

Great Stuff, Guys!

In my case mip filter and dither give me 6 to 12 frames in all cases when
they are both set to 'off'. All cases being on an empty track, field of four
offline, and field of 4 to 6 online. The difference between lone practice
and racing with humans or AI is 12 to 20 FPS. Pretty hard hit, but on my
machine I can keep it above 30 at 1024. Reducing it to 800 doesn't seem to
add a lot in the way of max FPS but sure makes the number consistently
higher.

FWIW 1.4gig Athlon, 266hz mobo, 256mb ram, SB pci512, and a Voodoo 5.

Dare I say that having this card would invalidate your views on GP4 vs F1
2002? ; )

YES!  Split-axis *and* FF for us LWFF owners!

this:

Switch to simple track / simple cars... IIRC this was in options/game
or options/misc (I'm at work now, can't check it). It disables some
lighting/reflection effects. This gave me a few more fps. Setting LODs
to 0.4 (mirror LOD 0.25) also helped... I'm getting about the same fps

resolution 1024x768, and lower resolutions don't improve fps.

Has the Radeon problem be fixed yet (i.e. without the registry tweaks I
mean)?

Dare I say that F12002 runs perfectly with nearly everything turned on and
GP4 runs perfectly with nearly everything turned off?
