NFS:PU speedometer

4 posts by 3 people · 09 Apr 2000 - 10 Apr 2000

I seem to have a problem with the speedometer in NFS:PU. In the Boxster S, for example, the maximum speed in the speedometer is at times 250 km/h, sometimes it's 300 km/h, even when I don't change the car's setup at all. Does the game control my choice of gearbox, or is there just a bug in the speedometer? The 2000 911 Turbo speedometer's maximum also seems to be totally random, 250 km/h or 300 km/h, regardless of the setup. - Juhno Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Never noticed this -- I use the "MPH" setting, rather than "KPH," plus, I watch the tach more than the speedo. If I'm passing people and they're not gaining on me, I usually don't care how fast I'm going. <G> -- JB In article <8cqj9g$mkr$[email hidden]>, Juha Virtanen <[email hidden]> wrote: > I seem to have a problem with the speedometer in NFS:PU.

Yes, I see the same things sometimes, and a few bugs here and there when leaving the race in a tournament (and gettin dumped to the menus), but overall, I love this game, so.... Anyway, you're not crazy...;-) Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

In fact, this didn't start to bug me until the last Evolution-race with the 2000 Turbo. I had noticed the fact that sometimes the maximum in the speedo was 250 km/h, even with the 911 GT1 in the Factory Driver-mode, which was strange, but I just thought some cars didn't exceed that speed (which was quite hard to believe of the GT1!). But when Boxster's speedo sometimes had a 300 km/h max, and 2000 Turbo sometimes only 250 km/h, without changing the setups at all, I thought I should ask someone if they've had the same problem... - Juhno > In article <8cqj9g$mkr$[email hidden]>, > Juha Virtanen <[email hidden]> wrote: > > I seem to have a problem with the speedometer in NFS:PU.
