It may surprise one or two of you but I actually bought N2002 yesterday. :-) The whole sim seems excellent. No bugs on my system: P4 1600, GF2Ti, Avance AC '97 audio, 320megs, XP, Ferrari FF wheel. FPS are good in D3D and no sound problems. Connecting to multiplayer was simple with my cable modem. No complaints at all, but just one question.With the ff, I don't feel any bumps on the tracks, and there is no engine vibration like in F12001. Is this right? David G Fisher
Well, come to think of it, I don't recall feeling any engine vibration either - at least not like in F1 2001. But, as for bumps on the tracks, I feel 'em. Try entering turn three at Coca-Cola on the preferred line at speed. I definitely feel a transition there.... This is with an LWFF. Bert David G Fisher wrote:

Papyrus has never modeled the smaller bumps with the frequency of the ISI tracks. They do get the bigger dips and humps but the bumpiness of the F1 tracks by ISI just isn't there. dave henrie

Yes, I notice that as well. Although with my windows settings on my Momo set to 120%, and the ingame FF set to 100%, going through the grass will certainly give your wrists a little workout. The FF in F12001, while much more complicated and tweakable, is certainly better imho. I still prefer driving N2002 with FF on though. Don Burnette
Because the "resolution" of our FFB wheels isn't high enough to process multiple forces, so if you are feeling the small bumps and engine vibration (what is it, a 4x4?), you are missing something else. Marc "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:klFc8.95531$Pz4.385872@rwcrnsc53...

Yes you are, I just wish I could tell you what. Honestly I have gotten so used to the FF in F1 2001 that when I go back and play a Papy game it feels sluggish, unresponsive, and downright unrealistic in comparison. For me at least F1 2001 is the new standard for FF. I honestly don't know why you and a number of other people are having trouble with it, I certainly wish I could help.
