I've posted before I have never got into the feel of the GTR demos released and theorised that my dislike of FF may have something to do with it (i.e. it is designed to provide principal feedback via FF). Having persevered with the V2 demo (the one with the Saleen) I found a tip which referred to being able to change the FOV with the mouse. I like running a low FOV in GPL (50) as I find it more immersive. Changing the FOV in GTR has transformed the sim for me, the braking points feel right now whereas they seemed too far away before and the feeling was that I was driving a lesser car than my road car. This has made a huge difference. The entry is under [Graphic Options] Allow Mouse FOV Movement ="1" This may be old news but I hope it helps someone. I was disappointed because I have heard many praise GTR here. Now I have will have to get it! Cheers Tony
