Re: f12001 mirror problem

I don't use the mirrors much, I just use the look behind key if I need to. I could be that the mirror are very small. Some F1 drivers say you can't see much in them at all.?

Guys: I received f12001 as a late christmas pressy and it seems to run fine - with one exception. Got it patched with the latest version, however, the mirrors are not drawing the cars correctly - I can only see a small portion of the cars behind at best. Am I missing something in the settings? System as follows: Duron 800 on an Asus A7V 133 Geforce2 Ti running 23.11 drivers do the mirrors work properly with other driver sets?

I'm using the 23.11 drivers and still have the same problem....until the cars get very close behind. I can hear them long before I can see them. But then, they go by me so fast that seeing them......well, its a "relative thing" and mostly useless....lol... What a great sim this is (by the way). As soon as I can manage a sub 1:20 at Silverstone....I'd like to try out the other F1 modern tracks.....pretty cool stuff.....and I'm definitely "not" a usual F1 fan.

Thanks Tom; That's what I'm experiencing with 23.11's as well. Guess I'll live with it for now and not worry about the mirrors so much. Probably less important than for GPL anyway, as I hear the multiplayer isn't so hot. Willard.
