allright then,stop punishing gp4 because it is after all the best f1 sim
there is around.
I have played f12000(what a joke),f1 2001(not even close),f12002(it is
better,but weather effects are awful if a compare to gp4).
,gp3 was dissapointing i admit that.
And those losers who cant get their wheel configured in gp4,i have microsoft
ff wheel and it is working perfect(yeah split axis and everything.)
Sorry about my bad english...

H?kkinen rules ok.

I FULLY AGREE !!!

I have GP4 & F12002 and GP4 is much much better imho.
I'm aware of the shortcomings but overall it pleases me a lot more.

It even runs in full detail on a modest 1400 XP+ with a GF4 on 1280*1024

Dude, an Athlon XP CPU, and a GF4 are not exactly modest PC's IMO
(especially if your GF4 is not an MX series).

You call that modest? That is really friggin' close to the top end in
my book.

Sorry to tell you this, but your PC is not what I would classify as a
"modest" PC.

Maybe I need a new computer, but what gets me most about GP4 is the lack of
"speed sensation".  The only time it seems I am going more than about 30 mph
(even when the speedometer says 200) is when I run it without any***pit.
I'm not talking about bad frame rate here,  just how slow it feels I'm
moving through space. This is especially noticeable after playing F1 2002.

Anyone else notice this?

Perhaps the last sentence about a certain non-driving Finnish driver
gave it all away. ;)

missing "Speed sensation"??   ME TOO!!!   Until....

try this:  I have a AMD 2100XP, 512RAM, GF4ti4600,.... still sleeping
behind wheel....  UNTIL  I set GP4 to 1024x, ON: TV -***pit -
mirrors, ALL advanced graphics options to highest (except shadows to
'low' -no loss).... sounds tough right?   then I set frame rate to
22.. that was the kicker!

Your eye/brain only needs 20-22 fps to percieve fluid motion, let the
game play at 22, even if your machine can peak at 29-30 like mine does
(P.S. $400 GF4-4600 later just to play GP4).       ----- AAARRGHHH
$400!!!

I also tried it on my GF2-64MB, AMD 1900XP, 256RAM....  all I had to
do was lower a few graphic options (AND KEEP THE GAME'S FRAME RATE AT
22 -or less, 19 min.) and everything worked great!   -Really!

TIP #1    #1   #1        If you can turn off AA, the frame rate
increases by 50-70% depending on your card.  Yes, looks better w/AA,
but do you want to play or not??
