Ive been battling the (very impressive AI) at 94% Psycotic and its about the best racing experience to date imo. Maybe if the RFactor team would give us a more powerful car to try Id agree. As it is now RFactors rice rockets (LFS'ish) are fun but the GT's are real race cars that require finesse, patience and skill not bonzai Track IR is an Infrared tracking device. The standard TrackIR uses single reflective dots and gives you right/left up/down tracking. The vector expansion uses 3 dots and gives 6 full degrees of freedom. Id suggest if youre interested dont even bother with the standard and get the higher resolution of the pro. Big difference in lag between the two. The only games I have that support VE are MS-FS2004, MS-CFS3 and NSR. It really is impressive moving about in the virtual cockpit, though it takes a bit of getting used to. GTR will support VE when it ships in a few weeks. Not sure about RFActor though. Mitch -- Remove "nospam." to reply. SuSE 9.2 Pro KDE 3.3.2a |
