Any of you guys using Game Commander 2 with Nascar4. A friend of mine told me about it, but I haven't seen it or tried it, can any of you comment on how good or bad this is, etc.... thanks

i use it in n4 and generally like it. it always recognizes my commands so that's not an issue (no noticable degradation in framerates either). the only thing i don't like is that i like to crank up the volume in the game and some times when my spotter says something, my view (or whatever) would suddenly switch (this always happens to me coming out of the pits). minor, but annoying. i recomend it.

Hi, Ditto Todd's comments. I got it with the headset and it really is pretty cool not having to use the keyboard! I would definately get it for online racing. I have a similar problem as Todds in N3 where my motor sound will cause the last autochat message to appear ("Slowing for caution") Yeah, right! My only question is how do some online racers post chats that are so specific? They can't be typing all those letters and race too! Any advice? -Brian www.brianmclernon.com "ToddT" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:p00x6.64$h%[email hidden]...

Using either version of Game Commander, you can pre-program any NUMBER of 'canned' messages. So in addition to the 10 autochat messages that are available via N3 and N4, you can also include tons of extra messages... So if you GOT REALLY CREATIVE you could have commands that would type out every car # and link that to a series of 2nd messages that would work like this.. <say> Twenty-Six <pause> <say>blocking<pause> <say> high<pause> <say> Jerk <say> Enter. the game will type...if you configured all the messages to match this...then all the other drivers would see the following. Hey #26! Quit Blocking. I'm passing you high, stay low. You Jerk. dave henrie of course that would take a-LOT of pre-programed messages and that could possibly bog down your system's performance.
