F1RS Questions ...

5 posts by 5 people · 30 Mar 1998 - 31 Mar 1998

I just bought F1RS on Friday and have been playing with it over the weekend. What a great game! Runs really smoothly on my PPRO 200 system with a Pure3D 3DFX board and 64 MB RAM. The graphics are outstanding. Couple of quick questions though: 1. Is there any way to edit Driver X and replace it with J. Villeneuve? 2. How can I tell which version I'm using ie. 1.00 or 1.08? I downloaded the 1.08 patch and ran it and things appear to work ok, but how can I confirm the version? I can't find an "About" option anywhere. 3. When I first installed the game, a controller setup screen appeared. I'd like to change things around a bit now that I've played a little, but can't seem to find this screen anymore. How do I reconfigure the controller? 4. How does the multiplayer mode work? Does it run on the Internet with Kali? How are the framerates? Thanks very much in advance, Gary.

>1. Is there any way to edit Driver X and replace it with J. Villeneuve? Yes there is a converter on www.f1racingsim.com. About the only way is from the date & file size of the executable. I believe this is on the OPTIONS screen at the bottom of the window. -- Header intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes.

Gary, You should try pointing your browser at http://www.f1racingsim.com This is probably the best site on the net for anything regarding F1 Racing Simulation. There is also an editor for the driver names, horse power settings etc. Give it a try. Simon Gatke

Yep, at www.f1racingsim.com there is a name editor, and a patch that will simply put Villeneuve's name in the game. Dunno, apparently you can type 'ver' while racing or something, never tried it myself though. Go to config in the bottom left corner of the menu screen. Everything can be changed from there. It runs ok over Kali, but I've found a lot of warping. Still it's the best we've got. You'll tend to find everything goes to pot when racing against humans, and you'll start crashing loads, or at least I did :) Pleasure :) -- Spudgun
