I'm downloading the Demo. Not speaking German, do I have a chance at
running this? -Larry "Tiny Lund" > wrote in message ... >I guess I will have 2 copies. > > http://www.gtr-game.com/index.php?page=news0 > |

>I guess I will have 2 copies.
> > http://www.gtr-game.com/index.php?page=news0 Shame we won't be seeing it for another 2 months. Honestly, the publisher/developers have really screwed up on this one. The game's graphics engine was already dated when it was announced 18 months ago and the delays have really done some damage to the game. It's a fantastic sim in terms of car/track physics and 3D modelling but the sequel will need to improve in every other area 3-fold if it's going to become the king of sims. I hear the netcode is very good in 1.2 but there's so many other oddities that happen in multiplayer mainly to do with the starting grid that give it a very shoddy feel. The Starforce thing is also a major pain which only hinders legitimate users - pirates will just go play something else or use one of the workarounds to play the game. |

Starforce? I'm afraid to ask...

I am very surprised to hear everyone talk about the "engine". GTR is not
the old ISI engine only. Those that think it is are doing a great disservice to themselves and the sim-racing community as a whole. GTR is far and away the best "available" sim right now, bar none(my opinion of course). The net code is the best since Heat, you can rub and it is very warp free and I am most nights that I run playing with people half way around the world. All that being said the release has been a bust I agree, but once it gets into the hands of sim-racing fans look out. On another note if it helps them build GTR2, I will support them. I support everyone that makes an effort to cater to the simracing crowd. Chad "Larry" > wrote in message news:K2MAd.15158$jn.11909@lakeread06... > Starforce?

Copy protection, as in the thing used by Toca Race Driver 2 (and variants).

The net code has been fine from 1.0 to 1.21, I've had no problems, but then I missed the bugged patch they released ;-) Never seen any start grid issues, on or offline. Never had any issues with Starforce either, with GTR or TRD2. Anyone with an interest in the GT racing should buy the German version and with a couple of changes (delete the contents of one file and overwrite the pit speech files) the game is back to English and playable by anyone. Stop complaining and get out there and play! -- Andi. Remove only one zero to reply |

"This news is nearly two weeks old. I think most here are aware of it.
Is there any reason why you posted it?" I'm sorry. Did I waste your time?

Considering that there was no actual release date in the announcement from
two weeks ago and that was an issue, then yes, your post was inappropriate as it suggested that a "real" announcement had now been made.
