Having problems with the Indycar demo would appreciate suggestions. 1) Video is very dark at one end of the track 2) Can't hear the spotter unless the car is completely stopped. And that sux since there are no mirrors! thanks

Spotter sound & sound effects are set 100%,music is 0%. > > thanks >Here are my system specs: Video card: GeForce 3 Ti500 Sound card: SoundBlaster Audigy OS: Win98se Btw: I like the demo, especially since I dialed a bunch more front wing into the car. Has a lot of potential, if my sound & video problems are gone in the final release. Hopefully the engine sound quality will be better, also. Oh, and split-axis pedal controller doesn't work for me in the demo, either. I'm very disappointed that there will be no mirrors. Official post from the Codemaster forum: "There definitely will be no mirrors, unfortunately. This was a design decision to ensure that we could have a full Indy grid with reasonable frame rates on today's PCs...We could have put mirrors in, but we would have had to reduce graphics quality somewhere else." Someone on the design team didn't do their market analysis! I wish they would give us the option to turn mirrors on/off instead of other graphics options like almost every other racing sim ever released! :( It will be good to finally simulate the Indy500. Now for a CART sim to run the road courses like Laguna Seca, Burke Lakefront, etc.
