Sega Rally Revo PC

Loving the game, but the AI is rock hard, shame there is no way to change the level of difficulty.

yes .. been on the Console thread discussing SR for a while now, but glad to see people are enjoying the PC version too

That's a great job to have. What nature of role do you have at SRS mate ? Any jobs going ?

I'm happy to start out as a "Junior Refreshment Engineer" l (read: tea boy!).

I love the game, it's everything I hoped for from an arcade racer and it remains faithful to the Sega Rally name.

The only quibble I do have is the game BSOD's when running Hardware sound. Software emulation runs fine though, this is with an Audigy 4 card with latest XP drivers. (dxdiag showing full acceleration for sound).

Si.

Hardware sound runs ok for me with x-fi fatality and vista 64.

Just been playing the demo.

Looks great and plays great just like the classic Sega Rally. Love the effects, add to the gameplay.

1680x1050 @ 4AA

might be a funny question, but how come you can see the side of your car when drifting ? :confused:

i know this is normal in most driving games for but me in Sega Rally the camera seems to be suck to the rear of the car, all i ever get to see is the boot which makes it as if the car is sliding about rather than steering and makes it hard to steer :confused:

anyone else having problems running the launcher part of this game, i can run the main program fine, but the launcher fails everytime, which means i cant adjust graphics settings or sort out controls for my DFP a tad annoying, have tryed installing several times now, same happens every time.

dissapointing to say the least, i reckon if i could get things set up i'd quite enjoy the game, it looks quite good and was a laugh even if i did have to play with keyboard and tiny resolution, but until i can get things set up i wont be touching the game agian.

anyone having this issue, heard of anyone having this issue or have any ideas for a solution?

This install was literally just done with the latest patch (4.06 I think)

ohhh I am having real problem with the controller part of the launcher, cant adjust keyboard settings at all - otherwise its a great game

SpudMaster · 2 Oct 2007 at 18:56

dunno how you lot can say its like the original, the cars in the original handled really well, in this they all feel like xxxx!! Almost wept a tear when i played this, so disappointed!!

SkeeterUK · 3 Oct 2007 at 10:37

Love this game the more i play it the more i want to play it more.

Patch i think has made steering a bit easier tho i cant pinpoint where. Its great as well using my momo racing wheel it just ROCKS!!

Great job sega you pulled a great game out of the hat.

Dyson · 3 Oct 2007 at 10:40

Got used it a bit more now, the AI aint so hot anymore. Actually able to win most races. Still not easy, but great fun.

wellibob · 3 Oct 2007 at 13:15

I think i need to be Colin Mcrae (god rest his sole !) to get first position on some of the tracks in this game. Some i can do easy, others are stupidly hard :eek:

SpudMaster · 3 Oct 2007 at 14:38

still think the handling is nothing like the original and completely ruins this version

Dyson · 3 Oct 2007 at 15:07

Haven't played the arcade version for over 11 years, so can't remember how it "felt", but this new one is nice and arcadey. Exactly what I was hoping for.

NVIDIA_x64 · 3 Oct 2007 at 16:55

Me to love it to bits :cool:

^^^^^^^^^^^

Rockchef · 3 Oct 2007 at 17:33

Another person who loves this game here just superb, And i find the handling very nice indeed simple as.

Jasebta · 3 Oct 2007 at 19:57

Handling of the modified cars is rubbish. All the others are great though, and online play is awesome.

Amnesia · 3 Oct 2007 at 22:08

yeah online play is fun...i even won a few races

jarvisjarvis · 4 Oct 2007 at 10:55

I reckon the handling is fairly close to the original

SpudMaster · 4 Oct 2007 at 21:40

i have a problem, for some reason when i use my wheel (logitech formula force) the camera in game isnt right, it sticks to the boot of my car so cant see the side when drifting and makes the game feel weird n harder to control. If i use keyboard the handling is normal.

Anyway got a fix cos i like then game when the handling is normal

but dont like using keyboard!

FrankJH · 5 Oct 2007 at 00:15

still cant change keyboard settings on the launcher - and sound always defaults to software, even though when I turn it to HD sound it works fine

Also crashes regularly (ie gets stuck on one frame of a track, sometimes audio continues sometimes it just repeats until you kill Windows - and my mouse doesnt work on the second screen I have to use tsk manager shortcut as is occasionally useful in CM Rally)

Otherwise its a great game

Have you installed the direct X that is supplied on the DVD, even if you think you have the latest it adds a few files. Might possibly sort your audio out but might not.
Unfortunetly at present there is noway to change the default keyboard keys, hopefully we can in the next patch if indeed there is going to be another.
