GPL: Did you knew this?

7 posts by 7 people · 05 Jul 1999 - 07 Jul 1999

By accident I found something out that I never knew before... Maybe the rest of the world does know it, maybe it's printed in capitals in the manual, maybe it was on CNN, but I didn't knew about this. So for all the people who didn't know either: In the replay mode, if you click in ff or rewind, and you click a second time, the replay rate doubles. Click again and the replay rate is 3. You can speed up the replay x 16! Now everybody's probably laughing at me cause this is a well-known fact, but I found it quite a nice feature.... Andre
Thanks. I did not know this feature. Great for capturing your pole lap replay before the start of an online race... =:-D Robert

What about the opposite effect - repeatedly pressing the up arrow on the number keypad progressively slows the frame rate down to practically nothing for slow motion replays. I confess it took me a long time to discover that one, and I bet there at least some other people who haven't spotted it yet. Mark Croasdale

... There are also keyboard shortcuts for the replay controls. They're in the readme.txt... C - Change to Next Camera V - Change Focus to Next Driver SHIFT+C - Change to Previous Camera SHIFT+V - Change Focus to Previous Driver Keypad1 (END) - Fast Forward to End Keypad4 (Left Arrow) - Frame Rewind Keypad5 - Play/Pause Replay Keypad6 (Right Arrow) - Frame Advance Keypad7 (Home) - Rewind to Start SHIFT+Keypad4 - Rewind SHIFT+Keypad6 - Fast Forward Keypad. (Del) - Switch to Live Feed Mode Also, CTRL+Keypad4 (Left Arrow) rewind to start of session CTRL+Keypad6 (Right Arrow) advance to next session. Keypad8 (Up arrow) Slow motion. Randy
Thanks for that Mark! I went out and deliberately caused a crash (offline of course) so I could test it........
I already Knew about this and, yes, you can got to 16 times backwards too Something people may not know is that you can press v or shift v when in your car, then press escape then enter, make sure you are on direct , not on replay, and your car will still be in the pits. If you are in your car when pressing escape enter, your car will no longer be in the pits. I seem to remember this not working offline though, but the sequence i mentioned has to be correct, so I may have to check that out one day( i never race offline nowadays). Obviously this is a "useless peice of information) but i just thought it was worth mentioning. :o) Cheers Ross MacGregor Randy Cassidy a crit dans le message
