REVS and LWFF

I've just got REVS running on a BBC emulator and I want to know the best settings for my LWFF. Does anyone know if Dave Noonan has edited any tracks for it? Any improved 3DO's from the GPLEA? The original cockpit is poor, surely the GPLSF have come up with something better. Can someone give me the URL for REVSRank? Which is the best processor/graphics card for this game? Tony Whitley P.S. Did I really once spend hours playing this game? Where will racing sims be in another 15 years time?

Allmost all emulators support joysticks... Andre > >Tony Whitley >

Tony, how is the physics compared to GPL? JensSchumi <vbg> On Sat, 9 Sep 2000 09:07:57 +0100, "Tony Whitley" <t o n y . w h i t l e y @ n S t P l A w M o r l d . c o m> wrote:

I'll have to look around again. I said the above from memory, pcBBC certainly doesn't. Tony Whitley

I must admit I never tried a BBC emulator, but every single emulator I've tried (C64, amiga, nes, snes, genesis, etc) support joysticks or gamepads. And Revs is also available for the C64. Originally the C64 version of Revs only supports keys, but there is a modified version (by one of those warezcrews) which adds joystick support. And I'm not sure here, but there also was a Revs+, I believe that one also supports joysticks. Andre >Tony Whitley >

Thank for the steer Tony. I must admit though, that I'm having great difficulty in getting Revs - or anything else :( - to work. So any further help or email attachments would be greatly appreciated ;)) Cheers Gerry
