SCGT qualifying

Having recently purchased SCGT, I have a question that has probably been beaten to death on this NG, but I'm asking it anyway- until I bought it, I didn't pay a lot of attention to the tech-type posts. Is there a cure for the problem with the framerates in qualifying, or does anyone know the reason for the big hit? In practice or during a race(even with 16 cars), it runs smooth as silk. Qualifying, however, gets downright undrivable at times. Detail levels and resolution don't seem to change anything. I have a K6/2-300, 64 MB SDRAM, and a CL Banshee AGP card. I've also tried disabling force feedback(ACT Labs Force RS)to no effect. Any help for this? Scott Moore Sports *** Network [link lost in import: /***.com]

Have you tried patching to version 1.551? [link lost in import: /***.com/downloads/upgrades/1551patch.shtml] They said the problem was addressed. Jason

Whatever they mean with "addressed", it does NOT mean "solved" CU Zolli

I've applied the latest patch, but didn't notice any difference. Just kind of odd that it only affects qualifying, I think. Guess I'll just start at the back of the grid.... -- Scott Moore Sports *** Network [link lost in import: /***.com]

Funny, i've never experienced this slowing down in Qualifing, could it be that it's only a specific 3D card thats doing it?, mine is a Phoenix Banshee.

I don't know, but I've played the original and patched version on both a K6/2-300 with TNT and V2, and a P2-400 with a TNT and V2, and never experienced the problem. Weird. Tim
