rec.autos.simulators

I'm post some mirrors ASAP.

http://www.bhmotorsports.com/download/1157

The Server has crashed! Was 11% through download. Now the entire site is
down. Must be popular download!

Uh..yeah I may be an idiot but what's so great about this game?

who knows yet....it only came out today.

MIRRORS:

Fast Server 1  http://www.brainerd.net/~simmods/GTR2002.exe

BLACKHOLE MOTORSPORTS  http://www.bhmotorsports.com/

Driving Italia
http://www.nkfunpage.net/download/GtMod/GTRMOD2002/index.htm

M4 Driving  http://www.m4driving.sm/filesingle.php?id_f=2379

SimBin  http://www.simbin.com/download/GTR2002.exe

Cheap Exchange http://www.cheapexchange.com/download/GTR2002.exe

And BTW if you are really determined to get this today I would highly
recommend using GetRight or something similar so you can link multiple
mirrors and so you won't lose anything if one of them crashes.

I tried every one and half of them were transferring at UNDER 1KB/Sec, and
the rest didn't work at all.  Only one could even be considered at 17KB/Sec,
but at that speed it would take 6.3 hours to download.

I am downloading it right now from racesimcentral.com at between 90-
95k/second. I am 25% done and 35 minutes left. Woohoo! I can't wait!!!

  Started DAP(download Accelerator Plus) and went to work.  Came home, DAP
had crapped out and the dload was barely started.   Turned off DAP.
Checked out the threads..saw at least 4 or 5 "fast" servers.  None
responded.  Check email.  Found another server...could not display the dload
page.
    Finally got a good dload going from the Racesim server.   ate Dinner.
Checked the dload progress, made some silly posts, cleaned up some of the
upstairs.  Checked the dload....checked the dload.   HEY!  it's stopped!!
stopped with only 4% left  arggghhhh.  Cancel  restart....What NO RESUME?
click click two boxes dloading....cancel the slow one...wait the 2nd box is
resuming the big dload...thanks MS(did I just say that?) dload
complete...double clik on the icon.....hmmmm double click on the
icon.....errrrrr  dammit icon I'm double clicking on you do your
thing.....aahhhh the box has been on all day...dloads all over...just
re-boot...BEEEEEEP!!!  disk error...run scan disk....
ok ok  there scan disk fini...what?  it's doing the full disk surface scan?
no whay in heck I can wait that long...cancel...reboot.  double clik on the
GTR 2002 icon...nothing...except the HD light is going BONKERS!
wait...wait.....LOGO!  Install...new driver....blech!  yellow
Porshee...change car...hmmm screen's a-bit fuzzy..clik ok...blech yellow
Porche still...change car & driver...ahhaa crapola  just get it on the
track.  Yellow Porshee crawls out of pitlane...FPS counter on...16?
Six-Freakin-S***?  make a note...turn off the stoopid Nividiot fsaa.  now
hit the gas..........
......
....
shouldn't the rev counter lights be---whooooaaa!
turbo!  I've heard of these things..I think the Millenium Falcon had one
didn't it?   FPS still 16  turbo seems to be one from a worn out
Yugo...exit...fix graphics...check fsaa off, vsync off...back to sim.  <wife
wants something>  ahhhh much better fps now...change car...hey it works this
time...now the 360 Modena....nice very nice...seems to attract gravel traps.
Now the big boy...You know I could only hold out sooooo long...rumble rumble
rumble   ohhhhbayyybee the Viper is hungry.  Squirt, turn, squit slide hit
something...slide..handling seems funny...slide,  diggin into the
curbs...what?  Flat tire?  yup  flashing on the dash..left front is gone.
back to the pits...then some real laps...feels sorta like FIA V3 but
more...more of just about everything...Closest comparo I can think of is
N2k2.  Change cars...hey the Lambo sounds gooood...but SUGO still has the
***ING chicane at the end of the lap...PUHlease somebody edit that ***
out of there...(oh and short versions of Brands, Donney and Mugy would be
nice!)  Change to the Beeg Ferrari :: 550 is a screamer.  (early
votes...ViperRumble 1st...:Lambo 2nd...gonna have to revisit the turbo with
better framerate to guage that one)
  OK whats to gripe about...??  The car change screens seem dodgy..like they
aren't fully re-drawing.  some overlap from previous screens  maybe.  My
driving sucks.   all else seems better than good.
  It lacks the 'throw the car at the curve grip of SSM & SCP, but isn't as
ICEY as FIA GT was.
<better go see what the wife wanted>
(broken toe?){tape it sweetie}
off to dreamland...thanks Simbin(ISI)

Try 32-bit color in your 3D Setup...

Good story Dave...  But if you like the Lambo sound, you really need to do a
turn in the Marcos. Even if it is too ugly for words. :-)  And be sure to
try the Viper in monsoon conditions.  With TC OFF, of course...

Q: What's your take on how driving an N-GT car compares with the V2.0 DTM
mod for NH that you guys used for TPTCC; say, at Mugello?  I don't have Heat
on my current PC, but the RWD cars are quite similar and memory has that mod
comparing quite favorably.  Am I just being sentimental?

Thx,

SB

By the way; great job, SBDT!  I'm running 30 cars at the moment and getting
better FPS than with 22 F1's in the original game, and the AI seems MUCH
improved so far.
