It doesn't really affect the gameplay, but it's kinda annoying. I get about 45-60fps when I'm driving the car, either in bonnet or in-car view. That's with a 9800 Pro. But anytime I try to get an outside view, from either the kite view behind the car, or especially during the replay, I go back to about 15fps and it really suffers, going into the low 0's and so, skipping lots of frames. Anybody knows, or have had the same results? I tried to put all the graphics off in the startup, it didn't change anything. Either any other resolution, or 16-bit. Or Tripple-buffering. It's still really jerky. It all seems to be related to the car graphics ,or model. Seems like whenever it's on screen, my fps goes bezerk. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...
Funny that - I get the opposite. Frame rates are visibly better with bumper camera or behind views. Anything from inside the car slows doen on my system - P4 3.2GHz/1GB DDR/GF6800 128MB with 66.81 drivers. Recently upgraded from GF4 4600Ti to GF6800 (base model, not Ultra or GT) after finding the same thing. Now I can run 1280x1024 with excellent frame rates. I prefer the bumper view anyway.
