Aloha, Mike +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4AJg-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs-As some will know, I have been very critical of CPR over the last +ADw-br+AD4- month. I got a Diamond Viper 330 the other day to go with existing +ADw-br+AD4- iP233MMX, Aopen AP5t TX MB and 64 meg EDO. CPR is better and I look +ADw-br+AD4- forward to the patch with great caution :) +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- The next day I was lucky? to find a shop here in Sydney with a +ADw-br+AD4- few copies of F1RS. Expecting great things I am so far very dissapointed +ADw-br+AD4- with it. Stutters going around corners and just generally has no feel at +ADw-br+AD4- all. Not of speed or cornering. I suspect this is a poor choice of +ADw-br+AD4- perspective from the+ACoAKgAq-pit view on Ubi's part (reminds me of fiddling +ADw-br+AD4- with keys in CPR). Things seem much better (smoother graphics and +ADw-br+AD4- better feel) from the nose cone view or the rear car view but who cares. +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- Also, where the hell are the replays? I go to page 31 of the +ADw-br+AD4- manual and see what to do once at the replay screen but how the hell do +ADw-br+AD4- you get there in the first place? (Hope I have overlooked something +ADw-br+AD4- simple) +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- I have heard a lot of very good reports about this game from what +ADw-br+AD4- I consider reliable sources and was very suprised to see how poorly it +ADw-br+AD4- performed for me. After visiting Ubi's page I see there are obvious +ADw-br+AD4- issues with the Viper and the D3D version in general. No system crashes +ADw-br+AD4- or anything. Just poor performance and terrible feel. The Viper's going +ADw-br+AD4- back to where it came and I will just have to wait for the Canopus Pure +ADw-br+AD4- 3d's to be restocked here in Sydney (all sold out over Xmas - apparent +ADw-br+AD4- worldwide shortage so one place told me). +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I hope the 3dfx card brings this sim to life but I have read +ADw-br+AD4- about similar issues from even 3dfx owners ie no feeling of speed, etc. +ADw-br+AD4- Unless the 3dfx card wakes this game up substantially it will be buried +ADw-br+AD4- with the Viper and I will be pinning all my hopes on CPR. Poor poor +ADw-br+AD4- pitiful me. ICR2 may be looking good as the offline internet competition +ADw-br+AD4- sim of choice for quite some time yet.

As far as in sim I +ADw-br+AD4- am running it according to one of the cart sites: +ADw-br+AD4- http://www.theuspits.com/cpr.html+ACM-tips +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Frame Rate Tips +ADw-br+AD4- -- Set the +ACY-quot+ADs-draw ahead+ACY-quot+ADs- (clipping) to 15 or 18, using Cntrl-H to decrease +ADw-br+AD4- it and Cntrl-F to increase it. This has a dramatic affect on the frame +ADw-br+AD4- rate, and you may not even notice the graphical difference. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- Make sure +ACY-quot+ADs-poll interrupts+ACY-quot+ADs- is unchecked in your Game Controllers +ADw-br+AD4- control panel (this option is under the +ACY-quot+ADs-Advanced+ACY-quot+ADs- tab. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- Set the Sound Quality to +ACY-quot+ADs-Normal 8-bit+ACY-quot+ADs-. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- Turn off the map (+ACY-quot+ADs-m+ACY-quot+ADs-), the leader board (+ACY-quot+ADs-o+ACY-quot+ADs-), the sky (Ctrl-N), and +ADw-br+AD4- the steering wheel (in the graphic options). Make sure your mirrors are set +ADw-br+AD4- to +ACY-quot+ADs-cars only.+ACY-quot+ADs- Turn off hills and buildings (Ctrl-B). While you lose some +ADw-br+AD4- eye candy, if you are serious about racing, you won't notice it anyway. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- If possible, get a 3Dfx card or a fast D3D card (such as the Diamond +ADw-br+AD4- Viper 330). +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Helpful Tips +ADw-br+AD4- -- If you are working on your setup and are following the familiar routine +ADw-br+AD4- of test driving, returning to the garage, making changes, then test driving +ADw-br+AD4- again, make sure that you are using the +ACY-quot+ADs-test drive+ACY-quot+ADs- button in the in the +ADw-br+AD4- upper right corner of the Garage menu. Using +ACY-quot+ADs-test drive+ACY-quot+ADs- (instead of going +ADw-br+AD4- to the Race menu and selecting a practice session) will keep the current +ADw-br+AD4- track in memory, so that the track only has to be loaded once. It will save +ADw-br+AD4- you a lot of time if you had been going to the Race menu and reloading your +ADw-br+AD4- track each time. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- If you are looking for maximum speed (and who isn't?) make sure that the +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-quot+ADs-race car performance+ACY-quot+ADs- realism option is turned off . If this option is +ADw-br+AD4- left on, your engine's performance will reflect its real-life counterpart, +ADw-br+AD4- which almost always means performance will be something less than optimal. +ADw-br+AD4- By turning race car performance off, all cars perform optimally, allowing +ADw-br+AD4- you to choose the car/driver you like. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- When racing at the Zone, you may not be able to keep up with other +ADw-br+AD4- racers if the host has the +ACY-quot+ADs-race car performance+ACY-quot+ADs- realism option turned on +ADw-br+AD4- and you are using a car which has an engine with a lower performance +ADw-br+AD4- rating. I feel that race car performance should be turned off when racing +ADw-br+AD4- on the Zone to give everybody an equal chance. However, to be on the safe +ADw-br+AD4- side, a wise choice when Zone racing would be Alex Zanardi -- he was good +ADw-br+AD4- at all tracks. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4--- Suffer from twitching handling? Here are three things that can help: (1) +ADw-br+AD4- increase the non-linear steering setting in the Controls menu, (2) decrease +ADw-br+AD4- the steering ratio in the Garage (under suspension - axle), and (3) reduce +ADw-br+AD4- the front wing angle. Many people overlook that last one, and it makes a +ADw-br+AD4- big difference. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Ok so thats about it but.......... I just Dled the new Beta patch at the +ADw-br+AD4- Apex site and guess what I get when using D3D accelleration now? 50 fps +ADw-br+AD4- WOW +ADw-br+AD4- But... there seems to be a flashing problem so I ran at software +ADw-br+AD4- accelleration only mode and I am getting 25-30 fps. +ADw-br+AD4- If you havent gotten this patch yet HURRY cause they are only giving out +ADw-br+AD4- 500 then no patch as this is still Beta. I really think this will be a +ADw-br+AD4- great sim remember this is patch +ACM-1 I think no other sim can match the +ADw-br+AD4- feeling of speed and overall feel so far. I think its worth it and at least +ADw-br+AD4- Terminal Reality is trying to give us what we want+ADs--) I hope you get yours +ADw-br+AD4- going just tinker a bit as its worth it. also be sure and have latest +ADw-br+AD4- drivers.
