Type "FRAME" while playing the game. Check out The APEX http://www.quiknet.com/~joja for more information about CART Precision Racing.

>it sometimes gets in the 15's, others in the 8's...........is that a >horrible frame rate?? Well, that's a matter of opinion... some people here will tell you that any sim is "unplayable" at anything less than 30 fps... Personally, I think a frame rate of 15 is very playable and very enjoyable and I wouldn't complain about it... I'll sacrifice frame rate to add more graphics - i.e. I've only got a P-133 and the last thing I'm going to do to get better frame rate is turn off the ***pit... to me, it's just not fun anymore if you don't have a ***pit... Now, I'm not a real serious "simmer". I play for fun. Some people need a fast fps to judge braking points and turn in points and to get into a good rhythm... so, if you're like me, I'd say 15 fps is pretty good... if you're a die-hard,you might say 25 fps is the absolute minimum "good" frame rate... Anyway, the bottom line is, are *you* happy with what you've got? And, as with so many other things in life, it doesn't really matter what we think....... :-) - Mike. ==================================================== Mike Holthouse - Indianapolis, IN I'm sick of spam!!
