Monaco Grand Prix

I still love this demo. In case sme of you haven't tried this already. Pull into the pits and change to soft tires. Apparently the cars have hard tires which accounts for some of the slipperiness. I know you'll lose the race but you will get better grip and a better feel for how the cars will feel when you can change the setups. One note about the demo, I was cycling through the cars during a race and all of a sudden I saw black smoke billowing from one of the other cars. Then I heard a loud boom! The engine blew and caught on fire and I have to admit I was impressed with the how the graphics engine made this look so real. Dave DmndDave

Once in the pits, how do I select a different tire type? I don't understand much German beside "Ja" and "Nein," so the help menu is worthless to me. Thanks. On Fri, 25 Sep 1998 01:18:09 -0400, "David G Fisher"

Alert the pits you are coming in by hitting "enter". Once in, the menu will appear and you must use the "insert/delete" keys to cycle through the 3 tire choices. w=wet s=soft h=hard The english version of the demo came out yesterday and you can get it at http://www.monacoracing.com/english/ which is the Ubi Soft site.

Is it still a mix of Wheel/Keys/Mouse. Darn! They don't seem to learn. An area where GP2 still is better. Remco

You can also select pit strategy while driving by using F11 and F12, and using the insert, delete, home, end, pg up and pg dn keys to alter the settings. -- Spudgun
