F1RS on a P100

6 posts by 5 people · 10 Jan 1998 - 12 Jan 1998

Anybosy had experience of running F1RS on a P100 with a 3dfx card will it run ok if I turn some details off? is this possible, I heard the game is pretty slow on the lower spec machines so this is putting me off a bit until i have the cash to upgrade, I've also got a Digital Edge F1SIM wheel/Pedals setup anybosy had good results with these? Cheers Chris Livesey

However, add a few cars around you and it's best to shave off some overhead. Don't wait... It's great... IMO, of course. Bill -------- "NASCAR is the Professional Wrestling of Motorsport." -Me-

Can you recommend the Digital Edge wheel? Is it relaible? --
I've Never had any problems with the wheel, It's a great setup. The only possible problem you may encounter is changing the wheel from two to three axis opperation so you can use the break and accelerator pedals at the same time; the switch to do this is internal on my version so you have to unscrew a metal plate to get at it, which can get annoying, other than this problem its great. > On 10 Jan 1998 18:37:07 GMT, "Chris Livesey" > >Anybosy had experience of running F1RS on a P100 with a 3dfx card will it

With a P100, 24 Mo it is OK when you are alone. But the first lap is quite unplayable, even with most details off. At the end, you will really enjoy driving with your current computer. But racing is only possible if you wait 1 or 2 laps at the last position. Obviously, you need to reduce the number of opponents to a max of 16. Francois.
