But it supports TCP/IP, why add another layer?

Through the use of Kali in IPX at 19200 and 38400 with cablemodem and ADSL. The game was set with no AI cars for 2 persons and framerate and occupancy was OK. The last test, i have tried was with 3 players, so you must choose the option 2 players or more. Either the code wasn't optimized in this Beta GP3, because the framerate was very slow and occupancy when up to 350% !!!. Maybe at the time of the test, one of ping of the player was bad and this has caused this. I will surely retry when i got the final GP3. I have also played it through a LAN with 10/100Megs Ethernet cards and everything was very smooth. So you can play GP3 with 3rd party program like Kali, exactly like F1RS did before !!!!

It doesn't work through TCP/IP through the internet, with my LAN no problem. AndrewS wrote:

Oh, c'mon. You connected through Kali, so did we. But, it was strictly a hit or miss proposition, and even with 2 players over cable with really low latency, it was a pig. This BETA (we hope) is simply not optimized at all for online play, as is discussed in the readme. Please don't even begin to give these guys hope that it will connect at a reasonable rate. It was a slo-mo fest with a full field for us even on a LAN (733 & 500 w/V3's). Let's just hope this whole warez thing was a big joke.
