*******C.A.R.S - Community Assisted Race Sim*********

From one of the earlier beta's, I had everything maxxed out fully on 1080p, and it ran about 80FPS constant with dry weather, and about 65fps with heavy weather/rain etc.

Was with with an fx8350 @4.4ghz and SLI 770 4gb GTX's so maybe it is an AMD driver issue?

Im hoping for the same, if not better performance in the real version.
 
pcars/textures/vehicles/customliveries. They are DDS files.

\pCars\Vehicles\Textures\CustomLiveries
But im sure it wouldnt stop ppl finding them.

Im disappointed that they dont seem to have created a proper skin solution, as they claimed they would. It looks like we're still left replacing a blank skin, meaning we can only have custom livery per car :(

Ive no idea if any of my old skins will still mesh correctly, but theres only 1 way to find out i guess :D

Dated ‎10 ‎June ‎2012 :D

I've used that design in LFS, pCARS, Assetto Corsa and iRacing. oh and Trackmania too :D
 
Anyone got any tips on setting up a g27? Suffering from horrendous understeer here....

GFX are lovely and runs like a dream, but drives like my wheel is not even attached.

Was this from GMG like you were commenting previously as I'm hovering over the buy button and would prefer both DLC packs, just don't know if I've left it too late although tecchnically its released tomorrow.

Anyone got it from cdkeys today and got both DLC packs?

I bought it from the mentioned g2play instead. Like I said though, only one DLC is in my list and that just says LE upgrade.

EDIT: Just looked to check if I have the cars in-game and I can't seem to find them?

Seems like some skins are fine, the Radical above was, but the RAC looked like the air intake was out of place.

As far back as i can remember, there used to be a free-cam mode, but now it seems like thats been replaced with the locked on camera. Anyone know if free-cam is in there somewhere?


Overall, i think its been rather hit & miss. About 10% of my race starts the car is rolling on the grid. Until you're in the race camera view, shifting has zero impact (throttle/engine can be heard though) so i'd love to know how the instance the game does the trackside camera i can see my car... or kart, rolling forwards or backwards. When theres 'no restart' mode available, its an absolute joke to get punished by a glaring game issue, especially as the game seems fixated on giving you 2-3 lap races and i keep having to insist it does 5+ laps.

I was getting the black screens again earlier. I'd just completed my first season in Clio and then the Kart tourny, and went to do some road car race (Mclaren F1, RAC, Caterham, RUF, R8, SLS etc) around Brands Hatch GP. I did 1 lap and had the black-screen FIVE times.

Here you can see it at full blackout, clear, and mid-fade back respectively.

I've rebooted, tried again, and it hasnt done it since with a couple of sessions, but im not entirely convinced that its gone for good either.
Not convinced about it yet. You remove the superior graphics, and the fun of day/night transitions and weather, and its nothing special. Maybe thats cos nothing is actually new to me, i think Nurburgring GP was locked away but i could be wrong, otherwise ive done all the tracks & cars, at various stages of their development, and so it feels flat and the really basic issues it has are still there - theres still a section of one of the kart tracks which voids your lap and its about 1m from the grass on the inside-exit of the corner, so if you take a wide line its invalid - thats easily 2 years old, probably 3.
 
Handling doesn't half feel light and feedback-less in the gt4 cars. Really light and way too grippy for my liking. I'd say even an arcade game like driveclub feels weightier with more road-feel. Also anyone bored already because there is nothing to unlock?
 
Guys how the hell are you taking such lovely shots? Are they being photoshopped at all? They look so much "smoother" no jaggies or edgies (even if I turn up AA its still not perfect).

Also is there a way to apply graphics settings without having to restart the game? So annoying!

No, it's always needed a restart.

I have SMAA on ultra and then DSx4, It still doesn't get rid of all the aliasing, but it looks good with everything else maxed as well.
 
what graphics settings are recommended for 670GTX and any tips to setup G27 - cornering felt like I couldn't turn wheel enough on tight corners...
 
Yeah, it's a picky, picky world :(

Anyway, who gives a **** as long as you're having fun? :)

It is, but end of the day, each to their own! ;)

I think its awesome. If you have a setup like that why not go for the full experience. After all that's the reason why some of us spend so much on a racing triple screen setup.
I would myself if I had the room but I don't.

Well, I have a bedroom converted to full office, so I have the space and I use my office daily as I'm a freelance photographer.

You got a nice helmet :cool:

Great setup though, if you can do it, do it!

Thanks, luckily I can still fit in my race gear after many years and yes, I love my helmet!

If it makes it more immersive/better for you then fair play :)

Nice looking rig indeed. Personally I prefer my monitors closer to me for a more realistic view but changing all this has not made me any faster so it's all down to personal preference!

I'd love space for a setup like that Muska, but I use my current setup daily for work at home and many other games, so it's the best of both worlds for me.
 
I'm getting this too, not sure what it is. But when it happens my sound good mental and cuts out, like there is lag.

I've not noticed any issues with the sound other than it's poorly done. It doesn't seem to cross fade very well. For example when you drive through a tunnel it's like the audio just swaps to a different sound byte instead of fading between bytes.

The pad issue is annoying the hell out of me though.

What cpu do you have?

from looking at youtube videos Xbox seems to suffer from audio issues because of a lack of cpu power and seems like there is some controller lag when it happens
