GPL questions and thoughts

2 posts by 2 people · 13 Jul 1999 - 13 Jul 1999

hiya, I bought this game when it was released, never really played it (i'm a flightsim nut), 4 - 5 laps every evening or so, then got a MSFF wheel from my wife for xmas, played it some more, now with the new patch i'm putting serious time into it, but i'm still far from being any good (1:31's at monza). Some time ago some ppl were posting in this group about doing around 1:20 at monza and i was wondering how this was possible ? I know there is plenty of room to shave off some time with me, i brake to early for the parabolica (sp ??) for instance but it's not worth 10 seks !! I was looking into the .ini files and there is alot of stuff like physics etc etc. Do these settings have any effect on the player or only on the AI ? What keeps ppl from cheating in online races if these settings do have an effect on your car ? I still need to see the 1:20 replay !!!! The guy who posted it, please do it again and mail me the replay ? Cheers RogueRunner
Relax. NOBODY'S done a 1:20 at Monza. The World record is a 1:26.8, done with a low-rider setup in 1.0. With the new ride height, times will be off that (by a few tenths probably). So your 1:31 is fine. If you can get into the 28-29's consistently you'll do quite well in most online races, and you'll find plenty of drivers at your current speed level. And no, the ini settings don't affect the physics of your car or other human drivers. Cheers, Steve B. remove "edy" from address for email
