IS anyone currently trying out the TOCA Racedriver 3 released by COdemasters? Its got alot of cars in it. Anywhere from gocarts,dune buggies and vws,touring,rally cars,F1 open wheels,Nascar trucks and cars to sprint cars. Numerous tracks to race on. I wouldve liked a few more tracks but hey there is alot there to run on. THe physics look like toca2 era, not my favorite but not half bad to run on. its got multiplayer via gamespy or IP. I havent test the MP yet. THe graphics looks pretty good, not evolutionary but adequate to achieve decent frame rates.
> IS anyone currently trying out the TOCA Racedriver 3 released by Codemasters? I have it for the PC. I liked the game, but I rarely play any game online anymore, because of limited gaming time and so many good games out there. If you have a PC, I have a couple of downloads: This one fixed world tour tier 32, which normally places you in the slower F18 against the AI in the faster F27. It's a replacment file for \Program Files\Codemasters\Race Driver 3\gamedata\chamship\champ.big http://jeffareid.net/rd3/rd3champ.zip The other one is a completed savegame with all bonus unlocked and a program to change the bonus code to your bonus code. Unzip RD3FIX.EXE and RD3FIX.SAV to a temp folder, run RD3FIX.EXE and enter your bonus code. It will create a Profile001.sav with everything unlocked. http://jeffareid.net/rd3/rd3fix.zip

Umm, WTF is up with all these racing SIM games using starforce!! How ghey is it that I've had to skip two recent demos (TOCA 3 and GTR 2) just because they like to infect users PC with malware. NO THANKS!! I suggest others customers join suite to get these developers to listen to their customers and use alternative copy protection systems! http://www.gamespot.com/pc/driving/tocaracedriver3/show_msgs.html?topic_id=m-1-26301084 UBISOFT got the message and dropped starforce protection from their games. Times for others to follow!

I think you should be particularly warry of GTR2, where the Starforce protection is so cleverly hidden that it cannot be detected by any known utility or person ... I tell you, it's almost as if it's not even there. Scary!!! Be afraid... Be very afraid...

How could SF protection have been removed from GTR2 when it was never there?
