Just been doing a few benchmark runs with different settings. DX11 and DX9 look absolutely identical to me and using DX9 I gain 7 FPS. Post processing does nothing as far as I can tell, can someone tell me what this is for in game. It doesn't add bloom or any other noticeable effect that I can see.

As far I can see, sweet FA

I would be interested in what DX11 actually adds. My fps is similar in dx9 mode as dx10 mode. Water effects and reflections are the same in dx9 mode as 10. :confused:

I reckon they have just put 'dx11 mode' in the options menu so it looks like dx11 is supported

Its a good game for gameplay, in terms of graphics, it certainly doesnt look like a 2011 (PC) game

How on earth can you do that and not get a single warning about cutting?

They'll fix it next year, thanks for your money though.

Grand Prix 4 is still a far better simulation, the only thing these new games have on it is a modern 3D graphics engine.
 
From looking at it a bit more closely, it seems if you just coast through the corners you don't get penalised. Seems like a massive oversight from CM there :(
 
Well for no apparent reason at all my F1 2011 now crashes when loading at the local storage check (hit enter screen).

Any ideas?
 
Backup your data and settings in docs/app data whereever it's kept, delete them, and try running the game again, see what happens

Its what I'd try anyway

That worked, it would appear my savegame has become corrupt. :confused::(

Oh well, start all over again!
 
Now try putting the folder you backed up back, and see if it starts crashing again. :)

If you changed any options settings it may help you narrow down the issue.
 
My dvd doesnt work (cant be read), but there are no scratches etc. is it possible my dvd player (which still reads all my other dvds) cant read the format?

Won't be any good but would be interested in trying it out online, what kind of distances/tracks are you planning on?

We usually do 10% and multiple tracks, generally which ever one most people agree to.

Don't worry about being bad, aslong as you can handle the first few corners without wrecking peoples races and can move out of the way if blue flagged its no problem.
 
Reminder - 9pm for some online fun. Come on guys, join in for some practice! Be nice if we had a full grid :D

Murray - If there's no qually can we do some 20% races? More of Suzuka,Yeongam, Valencia, Shanghai, Istanbul please :D

Someone is going to have to explain Grumble to me. Is it normal I don't see other users when I logon to the server? I can't hear anything either? :rolleyes:
