That's one of only a couple of Italian words I know the translation of

Why would Frankie Boyle's kids know who Diablo is?

Post fairies? I thought we were tea thingies

Only Super Moderators and Administrators can muck around with post counts. There is no need to write the post number below - whoever fixes it will just add 100 to your current post count (i.e. 100+6 = 106. Knowing how evil/cheeky some of the mods around here are - they'll probably take their sweet time fixing it since you've complained. One of us will delete these o/t posts later on.

never, EVER "celebrate" your post count in here ;)

I also had fun with NFS6, but as the printed game manual for it said, the 'handling is predictable, so don't blame us if you crash'. If anyone is looking for the 'post count' discussion it is here.

1st and last one are epic.

Encrypt or decrypt?

I would set Fraps to record at Half and at 25 or 30 FPS. Once you've finished recording you can use any video eiting or conversion software to reduce the filesize. There aren't many audio settings in Fraps. You could try updating your audio drivers by going to the website for the maker of your sound card or motherbaord (if you have onboard audio).

It depends on a few things - what FPS you currently get in game (how good your GFX card is and what resolution you play at). It also depends on how much HDD space you have (a few minutes of 1080p video could easily be 50GB or more), and how quickly Fraps can write to that HDD (ideally you want to record to a HDD where Windows and the game you're playing is not installed). I have a nVidia GTX 480 and play at 1920x1080. I set Fraps to record at 40FPS and at half my resolution, for output of 960x540. I then use Sony Vegas Pro 8.0b as my video editor, and output the finished product at the same resolution and aspect ratio at 4mbps MP4, as this tends to work best when uploading to YouTube. My YouTube channel is here and I share another channel with Leadfoot here.

Short answer: no.

Or just make a new duck flag icon

There's a special subforum for requesting car mods that you can post in once you get about 15 or so posts here. We ask that users don't post requests in other threads. :)

Hi New, good to have you with us :lol:

The 1st three look new. What's the link to the site that shows the pics?

What :confused:

You never told us the time anyway :p I think there's a cruise scheduled on Dusty's forum anyway, Dan.

It doesn't have to be a sim, it just has to be comparable to driving an actual car. If there is no skill needed to play this game, then there is no aspiration, no point to playing it. If they move the slider closer to the sim side (not all the way), at least after playing it for 3 years, most of you would be better drivers in the real world. If you try to take a 90 degree corner at 100kph in real life, you won't be here tomorrow (and unfortunately, stuff like that happens all too often). There is no need to be a professional racing driver to play this game, but by the time you finish, maybe you might be an ameture one. :) Balance is obviously needed here, and is being sought. After all, turning driver aids off should mean 'use the brakes or crash'. If I drift around the north-east part of O'ahu in TDU1 with aids off in Hardcore mode you get a sense of achievement. 'I did that', not some computer algorithm that makes the car feel like its on train tracks. That's all TDU2 needs to make me happy. I drive in real life every day, so I shouldn't have to learn how to drive in TDU2, because that's how different the physics are. That's just my 2c - hopefully the rest of you see that as a balanced opinion. I don't care how arcady the physics are with Driver aids turned on full, you can have that if you want, even if that means you're at the top of all the leaderboards. I'm just happy to cruise around with friends. Shift is alright in my books, just not enough tracks to hold my attention. The main reason people play sims still is usually due to the modding ability (sounds familiar). :)

Seems like NGR has a few Shift mods - might go try some of them out and post screenies later

Nice pics (although the first one looks like it came from an ArmorAll commercial). :)

I got RBR a few months ago. Handling was good (difficult), but the graphics are in desperate need of a refresh. I'll also be getting WRC whenever that comes out. They've been quieter than Eden just about.

I wish there was a way to export Dirt2's physics into Dirt 1 :( At least Dirt 3 isn't too far away.

You have a car that he doesn't have, so he see's this basic placeholder:

Just noticed Motormax Offroad Extreme is now on Steam for an insanely cheap price (you'd put it in the 'this must be a crap game based on its price' basket if you didn't know any better). If you're not playing in Ibiza, it might fill the gap between now and when the next few games come out http://store.steampowered.com/app/34860/
