rec.autos.simulators

Announced release date is JANUARY !

There was a introduction of F1GP2 at Supergames on a wide screen (with
BIG speakers...) (hey... forget the F1GP 1 intro...)...

AND there was also a demo , a workable demo (you know, something you
can play with.).

Well, as it were told earlier, the game doesn't seem that smooth...
(forget the 25fps  (or more) of F1GP1 in VGA mode). Quiet
disappointed... I hope that I have seen an (very) old pre-version
alpha-and-beta (as they don't want to make a demo...).
Yep, I forgot to tell you that the demos were running on Pentium 75
machines. (damn... is Destruction Derby smooth on P5-75?)

Now, I realize that I forgot to watch a lot of thing (cars, processor
occupancy (if available)...). Shit. (yes, but I was Disgusted...)

Disgusted because I really like F1GP1...

I think I won't buy this game as long as I won't see the final
version...

Well.... I think it's time to go back and play Need For Speed (yep,
not the same kind of simulators, but it's smooth in SVGA)...

                                BYE.

PS: Virtual Kart should be available this week... (in France...)

        The demos were running on Hp Vectra 500 P75. In VGA, full detail,
        the fps rate was around 14 (estimated by the demo itself), and the
        processor occupancy (still available) was around 125% ....

        SVGA was not available... try to guess why !

        The graphics and the car behaviour have been improved, and the
        driving feeling is great. It will be the *94* season.
        A detail: your car "jumps" when off-roading in the sand areas, like
        the real F1.

        The sound was the same than in F1GP.
