Re: Who was the first to aquire FF in ras??????

> Yeah who was the first lucky fellow/fellowess to get FF for GPL? I'll claim the honor. Most of the people who had access to the 1.1 patch didn't have a FF wheel, and didn't have any hope that FF would be worthwhile. > What was it like? It was a lot like when I got my first pair of corrective eyeglasses. There were details that I'd never been able to see before. FF was the same sort of experience, sensing things that weren't present before. > What did the FF feel like? Same as now :) > Tell the story!!!!! I had an ACT Labs Force RS setting around for months, but had only used it briefly in CARTPR and the Viper demo. GPL and N2 were my main sims, and neither one supported FF (N2 doesn't even recognize I-Force wheels). Despite being a GPL online racing zealot, after installing 1.1, I didn't run another online race until it was released to the public. That was more than a month, probably close to two months. FF was worth a lot more to me than online racing :) I let those responsible for 1.1 know at the time that the FF was something special, and is nice to have that confirmed by so many other people. -- Pat Dotson IMPACT Motorsports http://www.impactmotorsports.com/pd.html

Funny question. I already had my MSFF for 6 months before the 1.1 patch arrived. I had my parents visiting me for the weekend, and on the friday night after they had returned to their hotel I logged into VROC finding the place all mad. I immediately downloaded 1.1 at once, set the core.ini right and was totally blown away by the FF effects. I was actually able to feel what the car was doing, and i also did a lot of lucky saves i would never pull off without FF. I guess I was not the first one, but the experience of suddenly finding out the FF patch was out was pretty great. Now, some 8 months later I can't even think of racing GPL without FF. -- Olav K.
