Well I haven't driven it so I can't really comment. However, based on that movie, it looks very much like an arcade. I don't think I saw any lateral movement, looks like the car would go anywhere you pointed it without even putting up a fight. Still, thats just my opinion from the movie.

Don't worry CART, it is far from an arcade game. Better and more capable physics engine than F1C, support for some really nice gfx if you have enough hardware, and an MP engine that actually works really good for at least 30 drivers.

The F3 mod that is out has provided me with the most fun I've ever had online, by far.

you can set the export to a codec, i used DivX, so when you export the replay, it compresses the vid automatically, it's the 2nd to last line in your .PLR file, heres what it looks like m8. And to get it to look good, just make sure you get an ATI card, hehe


[ Miscellaneous ]
Key Repeat Rate="1"
AVI export width="640"
AVI export height="480"
AVI export framerate="30.00000"
AVI export quality="80.00000"
AVI compressor fourcc="DivX" // Changes compression algorithm <-- here

to do this you'll have to install the DivX codec on your machine, if you haven't already

And Cart, to give you a comparison, it feels somewhat like RH04 physics wise in the F1 cars, more grip than RH03, but if you make a mistake, you WILL pay for it, believe me, lol. To me RH03 is way too touchy, just watch a real F1 race, they constantly hammer the curbs in corners, and do they spin the instant they touch them like you do in RH03? i think not :twisted:

Maybe, but you have to realize that the real F1 drivers on TV are using '05 physics... :wink: :P :wink:

true, with LESS downforce than in previous years, lol, i think it's because we use super high physics, but hey, it's the same for everyone, so it's all good :D I just think hitting a curb should not be a definite spin :evil:
