how do you do it? the sound isnt there (like in the papyrus games) and the feel isnt there, so how (apart from either massive understeer or oversteer) can you detect brake lockup? pez
That's a good question. I noticed this too. Very hard to tell.

In the player.plr file under sound is a line called Vehicle scrubbing multvol or something like that. Change the line to 1.5000 or to your liking. Mitch "James" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:409ec415$[email hidden]...

Yeah, it's difficult. The Papy games use an exaggerated screech sound and at least in F1C, because it's an open wheeler game, you can see the when the tyres lock up. There _is_ a scrubbing sound though in the demo and if you know what to listen for you can hear when a tyre locks.

I changed it in mine and it does help a bit. For me 1.5000 is a little too much though, so tonight I will try a slightly lesser value. ;) Thanks again! -- Pete Panaia Animator \ 3D Artist Faster... faster... faster...

Could somebody post the original Skid/Scrub VolMulti values? I'm too lazy to do a reinstall, and too stupid to have left comments with the original values ;). TIA! Kendt
