Hi all,
3hours 44minutes and 4seconds later........
Brilliant!
I have just finished playing F1GP2 for the first time and i must say it
has left
me speechless, breathless and someotherless! ;-)
My computer setup is P166, 32MB EDO with a Diamond Stealth 4MB VRam
Card and i must say the upgrade from a P100 seems to have been worth it :)
Monaco with all detail on at SVGA is wonderful to look at but absolutely
unplayable! Turning off the mirror details, sky, road etc. didn't help at
all
BUT turning on Automatic detail came up with an average frame rate of
16 and at that setting it definitely is playable! Even when close behind
the
other cars (ie. up the exhaust pipe!) the frame rate didn't change at all.
(Only when Automatic is on though, the manual settings seemed to give
a max of 8fps although it showed an average of 12...)
The other tracks are equally beautifully drawn and the cars just have
to be seen to be believed!
The best point for me though is the way the car handles. Drive over the
kerbs and prepare to take off! The sound is fantastic too, close your
eyes and you are there! :-)
I better stop now, too many exclamation marks and besides, i want to
get my first season started :-)
It has DEFINITELY been worth the wait! (There's another one....) ;-)
Broady
PS, one thing that REALLY surprised me is the fact that the Game here
in Germany is actually in german, not just the manual either but the whole
game. I would have thought the english version would have been available
first?
Hi Steve,
I thought you had died or something... failing to answer my e-mails over the
past 9 months or so. Please e-mail me.
