Inclusion of Force Feedback.
Some (minor) bug fixes.
A lot of Multiplayer stuff, like unattendent server, max latency,
allowed car types, maximum players.
And rumour is, they include Giant Nuclear Chickens. Yippie!

I heard they would include also Hornballs, an option to create a mode with
Monster Trucks (two wide into the Masta Kink!), oh yes and finally a wheel
cam. The wheel cam is incredible. It is mounted inside the wheel, and
starts to pivot on it's axis when the speed increase..
It spins and spins and spins and spins and spins. When you are on the long
straight at the Nurburgring, you will start to do a temp***space voyage
like at the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

It's still worth downloading the patch however, once it's available,
as the small bugs which it will fix might do good for you.

Apart from making all the pre*** settings available from a single
screen (the Race Central tab), here's a sampling of the things that GPaL
will do, from the interface, for the offline racer:
-Allow for simple adjustment of the AI speed...down for the beginner or up
for the expert!
- Allow for the simple adjustment of AI field speed diversity. Want a wide
range of speeds in the field or prefer a wild tightly-bunched field?
- Increase or decrease the probability that AI drivers will make driving
errors
- Enable or disable the inherent random modifiers that affect AI performance
- Allow you to conduct a spec race in which you and all the AI drive the
same car
- Randomly reassign AI drivers to different teams
- Specify a starting grid that may better suit your needs
- Select a car type (Novice, Advanced Trainer, or Pro) in Single Race mode
from the GPaL Race Central screen
- Specify a race length independent of Level (Novice, Intermediate, or Pro)
- Select the full range of GPL force feedback settings from the screen
All fields in GPaL provide easy point-and-click adjustment as well as
full-keyboard support for keyboard fans. In addition to click adjustments,
numeric field values can be increased or decreased with Up/Dn, +/-,
PgUp/PgDn, etc. Take your pick! :)
Just a taste. And there's more in the pipeline! :)
Get a preview of GPaL at www.RaceLive.com/GPaL.
Enjoy!

So basically, Not Much for the offline GPL user w/o a FF wheel?

That'll do me fine! ;)
All the way up for me!
I wonder if there's anything on the way to allow one to chose all the
keyboard commands, instead of only being able to select a few, like
the NUM pad.

In addition to what he has stated here, I hasten to add that he has managed
to join some of the HMRC crowd on a European server in Belgium on at least a
couple of occasions (admittedly with varying degrees of success). I remember
one occasion where his pings were way in excess of 600 but had a rock steady
connection with no warps. Sometimes connections are just the luck of the
draw.
The point is that online racing from Aus is not only feasible but highly
probable

Sometimes drivers aid are selected when entering player screen.
With a certain amount of setups, you can't select all of them.
At startup all your netconnections are checked, even if you don't want
to multiplay.
I wasn't being facetious or sarcastic.....I honestly cannot claim to have
experienced any "bugs" in this product.

BTW, you should try online play at least once...it's a blast.
I know, that's why I answered.
That's why they're small <g>

>>as the small bugs which it will fix might do good for you.
When installing the FULL install, you still require the CD-ROM
when you shouldn't do. There is however already a fix for this, but
it's still a bug which was left in the product.
For some slower PC's, increasing the resolution poses no
problems, except when running a replay in full screen. The controls
are then inactive.
I was speaking to somebody else about this a while ago, so I am sure
that there are a few other things which could do with being changed -
I forget exactly what though.
