I think the mod is either love it or hate it. I like it, some of it is a bit bright but then I went to Monaco and it was just brilliant. It certainly makes the 5 tracks looks better.
 
i cant say ive had any problems so far, i did get a warning from steam on first attempt to run that my game files were defragmented and did i want steam to fix them, which i did and its ran flawlessy since

Defragmentation and corruption are different things, Steam did the same for me. The bug seems to strike randomly, but from reading it either happens at Monza or China a LOT.
 
I'll be honest I haven't read all 98 pages but noticed a few posts about graphics performance.
How is it likely to run on an ATi HD4850 512Mb card? I know it WAS quite a good card at the time, but must be couple years old now.
CPU is an E8400 @4Ghz.

Just experienced a race at Sepang (Career Mode) where some of the AI didn't make their mandatory pit-stop. I was leading in the Virgin from the start until my pit-stop. I built up a gap to Hamilton, but as I proceeded into the pit-lane, I accidentally hit the curb and span. This gave Hamilton a massive lead (the others were miles behind, so I was still 2nd, albeit only just in front of Massa as he followed me into the pit-lane). Anyway, I managed to catch everyone up (Hamilton included), and by the penultimate lap I regained the lead from Pedro De La Rosa. At the time it didn't bother me that he was within a few tenths of me so close to end, as the only reason he was that far up the field was because he hadn't pitted.

On the final lap, just after those two fast-sweeping right-handers in sector two, I span again, giving De La Rosa the lead again and very nearly losing 2nd place to Hamilton. As it turns out, De La Rosa never once pitted and remained in the lead for the final few corners. He won the race. A few other drivers who you wouldn't normally see at the front end also managed decent results, but this one stuck out the most as it cost me an easy victory, despite a couple of school-boy errors.

Should be fine, a m8 of mine has same card, un-clocked dual core running at 1680x1050 all settings on medium.

Get hold of a 2nd card to crossfire if you can, i have 2 x 4850's running this game at 1600x1200 on ultra, used the MSI Afterburner tool someone mentioned a few pages ago, both GPU's running at around 70-85% utilisation, give you a good performance boost for not a lot of £££'s.
