its a tad bit too easy to control the car for my liking but when you hit the tarmack your basically screwed as it aint easy to come off it

did you do shanghai yet? one of the corners on that circuit gave me a bit of trouble and catalunya at the last chicane was a right ballache if you hit the kerb on the exit of the chicane wrong it seems as if your almost garunteed to lose the back end unless your going in a straight line towards the wall

btw codemasters issued a copy/paste fix for anyone with a 6core cpu so you dont have to disable 2 cores or force dx11 for the game to not crash
cut the CPU bit out of hardware_settings_restrictions which is located in the folder "F1 2010/system/" and put this code in its place

Code:

<cpu>
<restrict_info>
<restrict_if name="cores" op="int_eq" value="2">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap2Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="1" dvdStorageProcessor="1" dataSetMonitorProcessor="0" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="1" fileStreamProcessor="1" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_if name="cores" op="int_eq" value="3">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap2Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="1" dvdStorageProcessor="1" dataSetMonitorProcessor="0" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="1" fileStreamProcessor="1" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_if name="cores" op="int_eq" value="4">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap4Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="3" dvdStorageProcessor="3" dataSetMonitorProcessor="1" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="2" fileStreamProcessor="3" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_if name="cores" op="int_eq" value="6">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap4Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="3" dvdStorageProcessor="3" dataSetMonitorProcessor="1" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="2" fileStreamProcessor="3" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_if name="cores" op="int_ge" value="8">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap8Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="6" dvdStorageProcessor="7" dataSetMonitorProcessor="4" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="2" fileStreamProcessor="5" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_if name="hyperThreading" op="bo_eq" value="true">
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="true" workerMapFile="system/workerMap2Core.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="1" dvdStorageProcessor="1" dataSetMonitorProcessor="0" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="1" fileStreamProcessor="1" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_if>
<restrict_else>
<restrict_add>
<threadStrategy parallelUpdateRender="false" workerMapFile="system/workerMap.xml" forceFeedbackProcessor="0" dvdStorageProcessor="0" dataSetMonitorProcessor="0" renderProcessor="0" updateProcessor="0" fileStreamProcessor="0" />
</restrict_add>
</restrict_else>
</restrict_info>
</cpu>

RavenXXX2 · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:03

Some gameplay vids from Monaco, even with fraps a solid 60 fps.

zytok · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:05

Jonney, are those screenies DX11 or DX9? Look much nicer than other screenies on here. 2nd one looks like a photo.

Marky · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:06

What happens in a race if you get a warning for cutting corners?

Resized screenshot no doubt makes it look better than it is

only because they are probably downsized from 1920x1080 resolution

every image looks better when you shrink it

even so, lighting looks very realistic. I know downsizing hides jaggies. Any chance of posting then full size?

Just found this I took from the codemasters forum earlier, copied and pasted from chatlog:
"IF YOU HAVE A 6 CORE CPU THE GAME IS NOT CODED TO DETECT IT AND IT WILL ONLY USE A SINGLE CORE

START MSCONFIG AND IN ADVANCED BOOT OPTIONS SET CPU'S TO 4 IF YOU DONT YOU WILL EVENTUALLY ENCOUNTER A BUG WHERE THE GAME WILL CRASH TRYING TO LOAD A RACE AND YOUR GAME PERFORMANCE WILL OBVIOUSLY BE POOR."

Other posts I've found have said using this method fix's the problem

I'm getting appaling GPU usage! My 480 is sitting at 450MHz playing the game.

And I hate to say it, but the damage model is terrible!

RavenXXX2 · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:46

My GPU usage is at 75% with 4xAA and ultra settings, what usage are you getting to have 2D clocks kick in? sounds like you have a problem.

MOOGLEYS · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:47

A few DX11 Screens.. I cant tell the difference tbh..

.one. · 22 Sep 2010 at 15:50

I am convinced this game does not like my gtx460 runs the same at low setting as ultra setting fast but stutter like many other people are having > tried the sound thing and v-s options but no joy it will all come out in the wash soon
