I joined the party at Donington. Wasnt too bad - for some reason when you chat my o key repeats a loooooot and it's difficult tooooo type a wooord with an ooo in it withooooout it cooooooooming ooout silly. Strangely - the host's warmup session showed as being over - yet everyone else had 20 minutes more to go. That, and it kicked me out twice. When it was working though -it wasnt too bad - but we should expect more when other programmers got net code down pat 4 years ago Doug

that chatting gizmo is truly awful, yes. :) I suppose it only snarfs the keyboard once for every frame. > Strangely - the host's warmup session showed as being over - yet everyone > else had 20 minutes more to go. especially strange since it was only 10 minutes to start with. :) > That, and it kicked me out twice. no idea why that happened. > When it was working though -it wasnt too bad - but we should expect more > when other programmers got net code down pat 4 years ago the racing was good, imho. afaik, only the interface and menu-crap stirred up any problems. well, that and a few not-so-good decisions like running a 360 amongst GT-cars, loading the wrong setup, and forgetting to fill up on the old petrol :) still 'twas fun. I'd like to try a full field tomorrow. -- Gunnar Cougar#02748 #31 SUCKS#015 Tupperware MC#002 DoD#0x1B DoDRT#003 DoD:CT#4,8 Kibo�: 2 gitaren er en sjingke
