It all looks like it's coming together perfectly. The track looks amazing! I can't wait to drive those cars

I sorta agree with Tak on the tyre sounds. Maybe they'll grow on me in time.

You will be able to change the volume of them though same as s1 i would imagine, because i think that they are too loud in the video.

VERRRRRRY nice!
That XFR looks like a bloody fast, fun drive! cant wait

Agree with the skids sounding a bit off.. hopefully these can be turned down in the menu somewhere.

The engine sounds have definately improved.

Looking forward to this....

What i did like - track looks awesome.

What i didn't like - no sensation of speed at all, hopefully it's just the way it came across in the movie ie odd camera postion.
that sound wasn't very nice, sounded like someone making a noise out the side of their mouth. And the tyre noise was very on/off. GPL has a good way of doing it, it used an increasing skid sound, so the more you hit the anchors the louder it got.

Looks pretty good though.

i reckon it looks realistic at that angle, kinda like a real camera mounted in the car. FOV of about 40. i race with a FOV of 75, which some people would still call narrow. it'll be good guys

1024 768 was the best i could do with this pic. (don't ask me why :P)

There's certainly something very good hidding in middle of Blackwood..

Wonder if its another Blackwood config? or a mini go-kart sized track? Could be a brothel?

well if you're talking about another side path going off the track, i took a look at the video and the only side part of the track i couldnt see was after the sharp turn at the end of the straight, around on the inside there.....

surely an alternate route wouldnt bridge off from there thou

Must be a brothel then

Gah, all this teasing and hinting and suspense is starting to become painful

edit: by the way, Tak, did you save that pic? It seems to have dissapeared

Yep same, i can't see it anymore

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Sat Feb 05, 2005 8:18 pm

bugger... hmm, this should be better then

Post by **J_luo88** » Sat Feb 05, 2005 8:41 pm

So where abouts are we talking about? Is it the bit just after the rally turnoff?

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Sat Feb 05, 2005 9:00 pm

Yeah, the section that isn't included in the screen shot

. In the vid as the car comes to the corner at the end of the backstraight there is a tent in the middle section of the track... they are hiding something in that area

Edit: Maybe, just maybe, there will be a paddock autocross section there?? now that would cool!!
