Yeah, I thought it was just NV that didn't do mixed res triples.

On the chance that it doesn't, would it not be possible to have the 1440 screen running at 1080 to go with the other two?

TonyTurbo78 · 29 Jul 2016 at 19:54

drop to peasant res? :eek:

can you hear yourself lol.

jokes aside, no way and I dropping 1440p Freesync, its to good. I thought you could have different res screens, I was sure of it.

Uncle Petey · 29 Jul 2016 at 19:58

But you don't mind having 1080's on the side?
How were you planning to have 1440 freesync alongside 2x1080p screens all running the same thing?

Different res is ok (I think), but I doubt having freesync and non-freesync mixed triples is gonna fly.

Devrij · 29 Jul 2016 at 22:32

The problem is the pixel pitch. You might be okay if the monitors are the same size though to make it playable, but playing at a non native res generally looks terrible.

TonyTurbo78 · 30 Jul 2016 at 13:26

hmm ok guys, you are right...would be a problem as I cant afford to buy 2 more Freesync monitors, and like you said I can't mix and match.

On a side note, been playing this a lot more, difficulty set to 95% with no assists what fun it is starting in the Clio Cup. Having some incredible races, plus really dialled in the G29, it's never felt so good. Not AC good, but very very good.

The AI are a real challenge at 100%...at 95% I've gotta work my socks off to get top 3 which is what I want from a driving game. Just been laping low 1:14s at Silverstone and still can't catch 1st place on a 100% race. I refuse to drop the difficulty or turn on any aid though lol, it's so nice.

Anybody still playing Project Cars on PC? Interested in some Time Trials (could do this cross platform), or some weekend racing?

Physics are the same on console? I must admit I prefer Assetto Corsa even though I only have them on PS4. Just a shame Assetto Corsa doesn't have Bathurst and the Abu Dhabi track.

I take part in PC TT on pistonheads using default set, and the times are close between PS4 and PC, not sure if anyone plays on XBone though. Occasionally there is an obvious difference between players who are usually close. I have both PS4 and PC, but haven't got around to trying them out on PS4 yet, only just picked up a G29 in the recent Currys/PCWorld price drop.

I've played PCars more so AC feels strange to me. The FFB seems to "chatter" and rumble a lot more in AC. Don't know whether that's my settings though because I leave everything as default. I find AC a bit glitchy on PC as well, running triples the screens jump all over the place moving through menus.

V F · 20 Dec 2016 at 13:43

All I can say is curb, road and slip FFB on Assetto are forced exaggerated effects. Should be set to 0 but on the T300RS I have the FFB set to 44% and understeer off.

I find the physics quite alien on PCARS but love the FFB options, calibration, telemetry and extra tracks.

Potential Jack of all trades, Master of none. Situation on our hands?

markoboyo11 · 1 Feb 2017 at 08:26

Having got pcars1 a few months after release, I missed all the bugs and performance issues and enjoyed it immensely.

Cant wait for this, but will not pre order.

Some of those moments are just jaw dropping. The McLaren going around the corner, almost real!

Cannot wait

DAIR · 1 Feb 2017 at 11:07

I think the most impressive looking this is the weather system. And the changes to the track condition.

Dj_Jestar · 1 Feb 2017 at 11:19

Humble bundle has pcars + all dlc if you pay more than the average which is £6ish atm.

TonyTurbo78 · 1 Feb 2017 at 12:25

I'm one of few that actually enjoys Project Cars these days, I think it's a bloody fantastic racer now the handling is sorted. Also, with the FFB mods you can find on the forums, the game is very very good, actually a lot better than Assetto and iRacing for content anyway. I'd easily recommend it to anyone today for the crazy low price it is now, there's a ton of hours in there.

Project Cars 2 looking nice looking at that trailer, get the tissues ready for the 1:00 - 1:05 minute mark

We shall see what the game has to offer though, big year for racing games this year, Forza Motorsport 7 on PC might be something very special.

How much more taxing is running 3 screens as opposed to 1?

This is my mate having a blast on my rig with my old SLI 1.5Gb GTX580's, settings mostly high and it ran very well IMO, despite my aged i7 870.
I now have a 780ti 3Gb, same CPU,triple monitors 5760x1080,and it's pretty much maxed out and runs beautifully.

Wrong thread. Should be posted on the pcars 2 thread!

BallisticGT3 · 2 Feb 2017 at 12:54

I've just watched the trailer, this looks amazing, especially the ice racing!

Anyone know a release date?
