I love NASCAR 3 but once in a while I love to branch out a little. This is why I also love GPL and SCGT. I also run NL, Viper Racing, SBK, the SBK 2000 demo, SCGT, DTR, GP 500 demo and MGPRS2. Last night I found a new demo on 3dfiles.com and what a great demo it is. It's called Rally Masters. I'm really enjoying the single race mode, racing in the snow. My best time so far is 1:56:28 What a blast! And damn, the replays are so cool, they are almost as fun to watch as driving the car. I don't know when I've ever had more fun with a demo, I hope the full version will be available in the U.S.

It will be available under the name Test Drive Rally. I'm looking forward to it, too. :)

This game is a lot of fun indeed. And more than that, it's looking to be one of the best sims to have come out in quite a while IMO. I'm really suprised why there has been so little said about this game. I've played the demo for a couple of days now and the amount of control you have over the car is stunning. Using steering and brakes effectively, you can make the car go into a slide that previous rally games can only dream about. Furthermore, the in-car view is amazing, including the sounds that come with it. Controls are a little too sensitive in the demo, but I'm sure the full version will have that sorted. All in all, a higly underrated game/demo sofar. Heimen Brons "Tranny and Trampa" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

How does Rally Master compare to RC2000 (Mobil1Rally) and Colin McRae?

Hey, that sounds promising! I saw Rally Masters on tv in one of those computergame shows, and on first sight it didn't impress me that much, I thought it would be just another rally game with arcade physics. Going to download the demo tonight, I'm very curious... Much better physics than RC2000? According to David G. Fisher that's impossible...

Well, in Rally Master you FEEL the cars ( weight, grip ). It's really good, even with the keyboard :o), and YES the car has slide inertia... IMO. Andre Warringa wrote:

You make me curious Sebastien! Does the demo have ff by the way? Anyone else tried the demo? Other comments? Andre On Wed, 29 Mar 2000 13:03:06 +0200, Sebastien Tixier <[email hidden]> wrote:

The game does have FF, and it is fun to drive. My only complaint is that you can not drive off of the track like in RC2000. You can go full speed into a 2 ft high dirt berm, and you will bounce off of it instead of launching into the air. Paul.
Sebastien Tixier 30 Mar 2000 06:35 UTC#282672
The demo has FF, and it's not great like Viper/GPL but you can feel the grip pretty good. You can completly configure the devices and even edit the reactivity curve of each function that is analog device ( accel/turn/brakes ... )! Like i read in other post, in the demo ( Canari twin tracks challenge / Stage in sweden ) you can't go off the track, but i' hope it's because in these two track in real life you can't. Anyway, i can't stop playing it :o) Andre Warringa wrote: > You make me curious Sebastien! Does the demo have ff by the way? > Anyone else tried the demo? Other comments? > > Andre >

If you check the game's parameters, it say difficulty is Novice, maybe in expert mode it's different, also i notice that when you flip over the car always return on his tyres. Hope in expert mode the colision/crash will be differents. For the graphics, in game, press ESC then OPTIONS, you can change visual details.
