Hi, after having played F1 2000 a little more I have to say that the graphics still look great -I do have a system that can handle it, with the mirrors off, with basically everything on and up maximum, though- and everything seems pretty decent so far... EXCEPT FOR THE DARN FACT that the computer controlled drivers can't seem to contain their glee at ramming me in the back and trying to nudge me off the road. Two out of three race starts with major smash-ups seems a bit worrisome too. The start of an F1 race is quite damngerous and big messes do occur and it is nice to see that in there but I have a bad feeling that it might occur like 80-90% of the time or soemthing. Is there a way to make the computer drivers not drive like kamikazees? This really brings the game WAY down. Sure, it's not perfect otherwise and I haven't had enough time to notice everything yet, but it really does seem to be pretty good aside from the nasty mess of the crazed computer drivers. I think I could really get into it if this were to be fixed.

Are you playing the Warez version by any chance? The retailversion has much better AI... Both the Warez and the retailversion are 1.04, but after installing the retailversion I noticed that my tires didnt lockup as easily as they did in the warez version. Also the AI's didnt lockup their tires under braking and as a result of that they stopped ramming me in the back.... lbaum <[email hidden]> schreef in berichtnieuws [email hidden]...

I have no problems with the AI 'ramming me in the back'. I'm using the retail version at 100%. Iain lbaum <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

No, it is the full retail version.
