I just got GPL (little late eh?) and I have a few questions. Do any of the graphics/ and or tire patches over at the Pits include 3d tires? (like SCGT) I'm very impressed with the graphics as is (especially for 1 1/2yr old game!), but do the track updates make a difference? It's hard to read the instrument panel (@1024*768), but I have seen "fixes" for this too. Do they change the entire cockpit, or just the gages? Does it help? btw, I can't believe how well they implemented FF in GPL. I'm using the ACT Force RS wheel, and for the first time I can actually feel the wheels spinning out and losing traction! It's a big help. Now I'm just waiting for the RS Shifter support! tia Ivan Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

I downloaded some replacement gauges from: [link lost in import] They make a big difference. Not only do they look much better, but they have a red-line on the tach. If you're using OpenGL you need to set "TossHighestMip=0" in the core.ini or they won't work. ...Colin
