I just got GTR. I have patched it, reinstalled without the patch, repatched it......and I get the same thing every time. I get it so when in cockpit view......it jiggles and jumps like crazy. I have set all my world settings to zero and get the same thing. ANy other view is rock solid......very annoying as I use the cockpit view almost exclusively and it gets to be TOO much trying to run more than a few laps. I posted at RSC GTR forum and so far no responses. I hope somebody here can help. Thanks V
Dont the bumps come from the track ;) Meybe we can get humpy over here and do a bit of grinding for ya :) IMO GTR has the bumps modeled correctly and is much more realistic than a nearly smooth track and like some "older" racing games. It takes some time to get accustomed to the head movement but once you do it becomes nearly as important to the "feel" of GTR as sound is. Matter of fact I dont even notice it anymore and I have it maxed. Mitch "V "fnugen"" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1nMre.4091$[email hidden]...

I know what you're saying. But with all my world movements set to 0, should there be exactly that much movement?? zero ? It gives the same amount of jitter movement at any setting I give it. There's touches of realism and there are glitches, this seems to me to be a glitch. The funny thing though.....at standstill it is motionless, but if I so much as breathe on the gas, it starts jumping.....even though I may only be doing 5KPH. Not right IMO. So this is what I am looking to find out. If somebody else has noticed this. I really hope in the end it is head movement, but I am thinking it might be something else. A friend of mine had zero movement with settings at zero. Between the 2 of us, we can't get it to stop. Thanks Mitch_A wrote:

Got it working now. Had to edit the TrackIR settings in player.cfg file. I don't even HAVE a trackIR.......go figure. All good now. thanks V

That wasn't neccessarily a slag - just one of the funniest jokes ever told really. GTR stinks worse than sloppy dogshit - there, there's some slagging! Though that's pretty funny too really isn't it - hehehehehehe.

I think that if you seach the main GTR forums, someone was complaining about the same glitch. Not sure how he fixed it, but it got fixed. Might want to go there to find out the cure. Alanb
