1920 x 1080 still requires a decent amount of beef if you want twinklies enabled where as 1680 x 1050 can give good performance at a very good bang for buck ratio.

I'm in a minority. 1920x1080. \m/
And I can run this game with a 4850 with a lot of stuff cut out but mostly post processing stuff.

No 1920x1200?

Was in the middle of downloading rfactor and then seen this so decided to try this instead.
Hopefully i can get used to this. looking and sounding amazing from the videos i've seen

something wrong with the latest hardware survey probably a glitch 1080p took a 16.35% drop in one month? are you stupid or blind? or perhaps both... 1080p is still listed as the primary display resolution so it must be a glitch.

Jesus my god with headphones on that touring car sounds nuts
Only thing i dont like it how you dont need to use the clutch, apart from that it seems better than a LOT of finished games and it's not even beta yet. props to the developers

LOL - At least I am not as angry with the world as you are.
Get off your horse and go back to your cave.
I was aware of that, but even if you add the 16.35% onto the current figure, that is only 24.12% which makes it FAR from the average which you intially quoted.

You can change it to use the clutch if you want to.

It won't let me change it and i've got it set on pro mode :S maybe the newer build allows, im not on the newest as i have the cheapesr member option
Soldato
Oh, weird.
There's an auto-clutch option that is turned on by default. Can you turn that off?

That's the one i mean, it won't select that option, does the one above and below haha

Sorted it, it thought i had a driving force gt haha, heel toe doesn't work well though

£600 on a monitor? I hope that's exaggeration for effect.
As that money would get you 2560x1440.
yes, i was stating £600 because i would say thats the minimum i could spend to get something similar to NZXT30's monitor, and i was trying to point out that just because he can afford nice stuff, not everyone can
ps, if you read further in my post you will see that i say a similarly sized monitor to my current one will cost ~£300, perhaps a bit less, but thats still £300 that i cant afford right now
if you actually read my post you will see my explanation for my resolution not having an impact on the FPS drop vs no FPS drop. my FPS on both builds at the same (admittedly low) res didnt change. hearing people complaining about FPS made me thing i should also have had a proportional FPS hit, since my hardware can run my res at ~60FPS but i had no difference whatsoever, hence my confusion and my post

guys, someone on the forums has just pointed out a small problem with the tuning setup screen that makes a MASSIVE difference to the feeling of the cars. the great news is its a 30 second job to fix it
the problem was that some of the tuning screen values are reversed. ie, if it said you had 1 degree of toe angle you would actually have -1 degrees of toe angle. if you put a bigger value for downforce on the car you would actually get less downforce, etc, etc.
with that information its painfully obvious why the cars are handling strangely to anyone who knows a bit about: they are all running positive camber
so, if you want to fix the handling of the cars, just put the opposite amount of camber on the car compared to the default setup for each car. ie, if the default says -2 degrees, then change the setup to 2 degrees
i was gobsmacked at how much of a difference this made.

I'm interested in playing this but just had a question I was hoping someone could answer. From what I understand, you are paying for early access to the alpha/beta game with periodic updates and a chance to get a share of the profits for the game.
What is a little confusing for me is that once released I have read that the game will be free to play but you buy add on's such as car's and tracks? So during the alpha/beta you will be able to play those cars/tracks but will have to repurchase the cars and tracks upon release? Is that correct?
Thanks.

me too am like wtf at paying to play alpha
You're really not getting the idea of the whole project here mate. The whole thing is being developed with the full integration and assistance of the community. So basically you get to say what cars/tracks/graphics etc you want in the game. They're not just expecting you to pay out just to bug-fix. Some of the guys on the WMD forums have even had "promotions" based on high levels of good work. It's a totally new concept and one you really should consider if you're even slightly into racing games.
Of course there are still loads of things to sort out but the latest build is a serious step in the right direction and today's build promises even better FFB and should start to address some of the input lag that seems to bug a lot of people.
