While it is a great effect...does anybody other than me think the guys who wrote RT over use the sun glare? **** "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass!

I think it's perfect. It's blinding just like it would be (is) in real life. I keep a pair of shades handy. Helps quite a bit. -Tim "TlgtrProd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I'm a fan of it. I don't think it's "over used". If it was over used, wouldn't it be in every track all the time? It's quite the opposite really.. some tracks don't even have the effect, while some others only have it for certain sections. Take Russia 1 for example, there's that one big uphill straight, where you get blinded by it! I think it's great, and it looks awesome in the rain too :) But, I do see what you mean though. Especially since a lot of people complain about taking a big performance hit with that whole sun glare thing. There -should- have been an option to turn it off, but there's ways of doing it from what I've read on the RT message board.

I did find a way to turn it off at RT Relay...just a new file to put in the folder...haven't tried it yet..but by using the 'rename' function you should be able to turn it on and off...though it would be nice if there is a future patch it was in 'options'... **** "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass!

Wasn't that a toggleable option after the patch? I thought I saw that in the readme for the patch that was posted here.... dave henrie "TlgtrProd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I did find a way to turn it off at RT Relay...just a new file to put inthe > folder...haven't tried it yet..but by using the 'rename' function youshould be > able to turn it on and off...though it would be nice if there is a futurepatch > it was in 'options'... > > > **** > "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per > second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass!

You have to move the effects slider in the options menu all the way to off to get the sunglare to disappear. You will also lose the rain, the dust and the dirt on the car that way.

According to the description at RT Realy this patch ONLY effects the sun glare...as I said I just got it this morning and haven't tried it yet...will post how it works if I don't see it from anyone else before then... **** "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass!

Saw the interview as part of a show at the time of Dick Schaap's death...it was too good not to use for something... **** "Here we are on a planet moving and spinning though space at 500 miles per second...and look...my beer stays right there in the glass!
