Picked up F1 2001 today !!

Well got my little mitts on EA's F1 -2001 today. For those interested I live in Queensland ,Australia. Initial impressions very good. My system ..P2-400, 192 MB RAM, 32MB Voodoo 4 -4500. As you can see, not a very powerful system but seems to run well at 1280x1024 with medium detail levels. Can't wait to see it on my soon to arrive P4-1.8 and GeForce 3 :-) Anyway, It has a rather skimpy 32 page manual which doesn't go into too much detail about the menu settings. Car setting are quite good and allow control over Fast and slow bump stops,Rebounds,Spring rates,Packers,Ride height,Camber,Type pressure,Wings,Diff lock,Brake Bias,Anti roll bars,gearing. Sound. Adequate ,pit crew communication nice,has the doppler effect as you go under bridges,signs etc. Graphics. Running at 1280x1024 @ 16 bit is very detailed. Very good impression of speed. Starts to get a little bogged down when more cars on screen but that is probably due to my system inadequacies.Will go up to 1600x1200 32bit for those with the computing muscle. It has a automatic detail setting or you can set everything yourself. Rain effect is good with general shower or monsoon level. One thing I do like is the training mode where every track is divided into sections and you are co-pilot ?/ in the 2 seater Arrows or Minardi.The driver will take you through each stage using the optimal speed and racing line then hand control over to you. If you perform the tests well you are awarded grades to go on to the next section. The general "feel" of the sim is good with powerslides possible and lot's of tweeking possibilities for controllers and car alike. Anyway this is only a brief account and I have really only spent about 1 and 1/2 hours with it so far. Will keep you posted !!

Thanks for the info Sparks....say weren't you the radioman on Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea?(an Irwin Allen Production)(in color) :) do send out some more feedback after you've had some time to run it some. dave henrie "S.

Hi, thanks for the short review, especially since it's done on a lower range system such as mine. I've heard rumors of no force-feedback being implemented; is that really so? -Gregor "S. Sparks" wrote: > > Well got my little mitts on EA's F1 -2001 today. >

That scares me a bit as the force involved in Force Feedback comes quite easily from the physics if its done correctly. Hopefully it was a case of, "we will do it later when we have time" and they never got round to it. Either case, i'll probably be outside EB on Friday morning :) Ash "Gregor Veble" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I tried the game, and it runs REALLY bad compared to all other F1 games....No, make that all other racing games...maybe even all other games. I get about 5fps at most with most of the things set to high on my P3 1ghz and geforce2...and things like mirrors aren't even on. The game does run pretty good if you turn it to medium everything, but then the picture quality is blurry and your missing tons of scenery and even then its not exactly running that smooth. The game was supposed to run like 3x better than F1CS, but its more like 3x worse. There is no ForceFeedback in the game. Besides those things, the game is way better than F1CS in every way, The track is ALLOT more detailed than F1CS or F1RC as well. Although I think F1RC track is more accurate. They have a 3 seater arrows in there to. The cockpit is the best in any f1 game. Suspension is the best as well.

Thanks Sparks......sounds pretty good.. DC S. Sparks <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:jjdu7.13721$[email hidden]... > Well got my little mitts on EA's F1 -2001 today. For those interested Ilive

Ahh, I found out why it ran so bad! The game has a problem with some Geforce cards running the newer 12 drivers. You have to go back to old 6. ones or run it in window mode. Now the game runs like normal.

I'm sure they could have released a patch a long time ago, but they are keeping it under wraps to try and make us buy the next version. That's my conspiracy theory anyway and I'm sticking to it.

Just to let any of you guys who run Kyro hardware know, F1 2001 is simply amazing.. everything maxed out, at 1024x768 2xfsaa, liquid..No slowdown even at the back of a full field at the start of a race...The sound is also simply the best I have ever heard in an f1 sim...Now if they just fix the FFB!!! Running Monaco at full detail is just awesome...From my limited 4 hours of play so far, the AI also looks pretty good, no more jerking around the track etc....Best part is the mirrors don't put a fps hit on my system anymore... Multiplayer - Can't comment, when I tried it, it crashes to desktop.. And yes I have the full retail version, not warez.. Thumbs up.

The only site that seemed to have heard of F1 2001 for the PC (as opposed to Formula One 2001, which is the PS2 title) being released earlier this week was F1 Racing Online (http://f1gamers.com/), but my local EB (Rochester, NY) said it hadn't come in yet.

EA Sports: Madden 2002 is fantastic for the PC even for some who really isn't into Football. Maybe that's because no FF is required? LOL. Joe62 wrote:

The PC version is basically a year behind. You should find a place where you can try the PS2 version, you won't believe how far ahead it is.

You won't believe how far behind I am on my Football knowledge ;) The PC 2002 series works fine for me and my buddy for some online gaming action. Joe62 wrote:
