Hah I'd like to spoon around with you on the track

Sp00n · 28 Sep 2009 at 16:19

Yea... I have some anger issues to deal with during races, however on the flip side, If i nudge someone then I will generally hold back and let them gain the place back, not sure if this is the norm but that's how it was done in PGR4.

Can a console play vs a pc?

There are some good clean racers online..but not many...if i want to smash people up i play demolition derby on grid, im getting bored with shift now so i may go back to GTR evolution for some proper racing.

Just installed the demo (from GamersHell) and it simply crashes and reboots my pc - any known issues anyone can tell me about?
Thanks.

I spent a few days trying to find these, and conceeded with the opinion that this game is best played with a wheel.

Richy1204 · 28 Sep 2009 at 20:56

When i played the demo with the wheel it is more fun to drive with compared to the 360 pad. I've only tired the pad on the full atm which its not too bad really.

Richy1204 · 28 Sep 2009 at 22:11

Any ideas how i get the Clutch and the H shifter working on the G25 ?

Edit: I done it now don't worry its all done it the game.

LOL at all the keyboard comments. I'm surprised you guys even have the internet. I mean come on? WTH? Keyboard on a game like this?? you gotta be kidding. There is only one way and thats with a decent wheel and shifter.

Brake Dead Zone-10%
Steering sensitivity-5%
Acell Sensitivity -5%
Brake sensitivity-5%
Speed steering Sensitivity 100%

These settings are putting me within a couple of secs of the podium on the OcUK NFS time trial on the notoriously difficult Laguna Seca with a notoriously tail happy Porsche.

Agreed, I tried with a cheapo analog pad and got frustrated, for fun I tried it with the keyboard and that was even worse, not surprising.

I will try one more time with the settings zytok gave but I feel like an uninstall is coming.

Ok, so i ordered a Logitech G25, Gonna put my Logi Driving Force GT on the Bay this weekend. Not a bad wheel but the small shifter buttons were starting to get on my nerves and i want the shifter on the 'proper' side lol.

I am using this config for the DFGT atm, even though its for the the G25, works really well.

I could be wrong, the cpu could be your issue 2ghz is low for this game.

also latest gpu drivers, and make the gpu settings in game lower.
as a test.
