Mobil 1 Rally Championship

What a hoot! Just found a used version on Ebay. First couple of stages I've tried around Wales are fun. I've seen the Ralwiz program, but what numbers do you plug in to make the physics more realistic? And I've searched gamecopyworld.com for a no_cd but all I've found are patches for Rally Championship 2000 and 2002...which I assume are European versions. any clues? dave henrie

patchstickygrass=0 patchdamages=50 patchbrakegrip=50 patchslidegrip=80 patchmaxdrawdistance=10 These settings turn off the sticky grass, so you do not suffer major slowdowns when on the grass, they reduce the amount of damage done by 50%, decrease the braking power by 50%, (so the car takes twice the distance to stop) increases the cars sliding slightly, and reduces slightly the amount of graphics drawn in the distance (to speed up the graphics frame rate). *Peter* - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/petergagg/

Thank you both very much...These narrow tracks are great...I'll see if I can squeeze some tinkering time in between my gpl quests :) Too many sims...too little time.. dave henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:aa0le3$377$[email hidden]...

I don't care if the physics are a bit off, blasting through some of the monster stages, along wickedly narrow gravel lanes, with my Act-Labs wheel cranked to 100% is some of the best fun I've had in any game of any genre. I'm firing up my gaming PC to get my physics values (wish I could credit the person who gave them to me): fizpatch=1; physics switch noautoneutral=1; don�t engage neutral after crash sensiblesaving=1; save between stages patchgravity=98; set gravity to 98% of normal gravity patchdamages=200; set damage to 2x normal damage patchbrakegrip=50 patchaccelgrip=110 patchslidegrip=95 patchgriptarmac=93 patchgripgravel=80 patchgripmud=93 patchgripsnow=88 patchgripgrass=85 sparksmode=1; display yellow sparks patchmaxdrawdistance=16; set objects drawing distance nofmv=1; no intro Full Motion View mergejoy=1; merge different input devices ; patchstickygrass=0 ; I assume 1 is normal 0 is no stickygrass I may suck at GPL, but I unlocked the A8's the hard way ;)!

Don't forget to patch this up to Patch 6. The patch can be found at http://www.activescore.com/rally/rc.html among other places. You might even want to join the ongoing rally at this site. It only takes a couple of hours per month. Wayne Hutchison "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9%Tw8.52819$[email hidden]...

They had a link to a site I had previously bookmarked, http://www.rally2000.racesim.net/ but after I got on there a couple of days ago...it seems down now...that's a shame cuz I 'thought' they were working on a 2002 mod for RC. That woulda been fun to check out. Anybody have a clue about the status of the rally 2000 website? dave henrie

Yep - you have to have the latest patch (5.30? patch 6?) for this to work, as well. Just set up your wheel as player 1's steering control, and the TM as player 2's brake/throttle and your should be good to go. Split axis works fine, too. HTH, Kendt

no problem with split axis but every combination I tried last night was no good, either the pedals worked and the wheel didn't or vice-versa. However, I'm assuming that was all for driver one. I'll dig into driver #2 tonight...thanks again. dave henrie
