DGSotW Hall of Fame Week 59 Theme: Free Round Chosen by: MrLolololXD Winner: Ozzmcom

Harley has neglected to post a new thread so it's a free round this month. If you've forgotten the rules read an old thread.

tduck has got bits missing from it (horizontal lines and deprecated text) for the last week or so. Ctrl+F5 isn't helping (maybe on individual pages, but the problem is intermittent anyway). Chatbox reveals others are having these issues, using Chrome.

I'd say ban all the cars, but then I know what the 2nd most popular topic is in the chatbox, so that's probably not a great idea

Yes the delay stung a little bit when I found out about it due to telling friends and colleagues to look out for it in November, but it's easy to tell that it's the right choice to make given the numerous gaming choices even in just the driving/racing field. I won't be going into details here, but the delay is potentially VERY good news for turboduck. You might find out more about this in a week or two. Regarding performance and optimisation, please keep in mind that while the Griff is working on improving performance (already doing a great job), other devs such as the weather/effects team are still adding features and experimenting which can play against that in some builds. Also keep in mind that the 'Ultra' mode in pCARS is purposefully beyond what a lot of gaming PCs can handle, so don't panic if you have to turn things like Detailed Grass off to gain FPS, it'll still look as good as other modern racing games. If you play a 5 year old game now, it looks 5 years old... but if you play pCARS in a few years time it'll keep looking better and better, which I think is a great way to make PC games.

NOS, obviously :cheeky: Either that or an urn for morning tea

You may need to add -gold to the Steam launch options to get Ctrl+F and other dev options working at this point in time. You can also press P to pause the gameplay before moving the camera.

I think a lot of people use the terms 'realism' and 'simulation' interchangeably when they're not exactly the same thing. Realism refers to the final result, simulation refers to the process of how the game got to that result - i.e. has the physics engine calculated tens of parameters hundreds of times per second in the areas of engine performance, suspension geometry and tyre contact/heating/wear. For example, a game might have a supercar that accelerates from 0-100kph in 3 seconds... which compared to information on Wikipedia about the real car, is realistic. While a game (i.e. NFS) could easily set how quickly a car accelerates through the gears, a simulator might actually calculate parameters that could influence and change that 0-100km, such as the weight of the onboard fuel, the altitude of the track, time of day, air temperature/density, etc. As computers become more powerful more of these parameters can be simulated in real time, depending of course on resource allocation.

...until you work out how to replace it with a Supra mod :cheeky:

Didn't really bother to look at the car due to lack of photomode, but you're not wrong. Same deal with the interiors.

From what I've seen, for general cruising we need Dirt spec as a base for handling wise - but this reduces power and top speed when on road so the car needs to be tuned to compensate. Hopefully with max tuning cars are plenty fast. I hope supercars in Full stock spec are easy to drift in H mode.

Why can't you crash the car at other tracks and not worry about it? :)

So engine swaps are possible, because that Mustang sounded more like a Lambo V10 at the start

Pete Morrish has been posting in the comments section as well there

Video interview from some even somewhere in Africa

and that he'd kill everyone that knew he was the Stig if it wasn't illegal :lol:

Up early, big day.

I think ETS2 is popular enough (and now has a multiplayer mod) to be included in Cruising Central (Freeroam)

We've had multiple Milli's before.... don't tempt Camel again

Drivartars hook info from FM5 as well iirc.

In some ways it kinda is. But I wasn't going to buy an Xbox One so it's better than nothing I guess

Having just playing FH2 finally I can sort of see why they'd do this, the cars look pretty ugly.

Either buy a wheel that also works with the new consoles, or get a really cheap G27 of someone who is upgrading now that their wheel isn't PS4 compatible
