*the screens are not my work but that of race sim central members.

[SilviaEvo]

hmmmm id get this game but my computer would prolly explode trying to run it, plus i dont have a wheel too bad for me :?

[maxbg]

It's a work of art...... Must get for classic car lovers.

[ARMAN]

I cannot imagine this running on my PC eather :( from the screens I consider it to be a to die for game :P 911 have to be a blast to drive

It is mate, it's one of the best cars on the grid.

Oh and mate. I forgot to show you this

[ARMAN]

STOP IT! IAM GONNA HAVE A HEART ATTACK!!!... :mrgreen:

[SFDMALEX]

What are your specs mate? You can run it in DirectX 7 mode take it easy on the details and Im sure you will be able to run it. Just make sure you have a wheel.

Its the physics not the graphics that makes this sim what it is mate :wink:

The problem is my geforce fx 5200 - the shittyest card in the universe, even NFS U1 worked epileptically wich made impossible to play the game cause in game every msecond counts and when you have 1-2 seconds lag you wanna smash the crap out of PC :x

[Banchi105]

Holy :twisted:

I'm going to have to get a new computer now.

and one of these to go with it http://www.thomas-superwheel.com/prods.html

[SFDMALEX]

/\/\/\TSWs are solid wheels but sadly no force feedback. And in a modern sim no force feedback is the same as driving pole position on Atari...its going back to the stone age. :wink:

[vexor]

I have to cpu to play it, I have the wheel with force feedback, now I just need the game.

When is the release date or is it already out?????

[Banchi105]

As I've never used a very decent wheel I can't say anything from first-hand experience, but I was under the impression (from both their site and 3rd party reviews) that in the end the force feedback just isn't a big a deal as its made out to be. Have a solid and accurate Wheel and pedal setup adds more to the driving experience than having the wheel try to jerk the opposite direction. :?:

Well I've been into simracing for over 6 years and owned/own many wheels.

Anyone who says FF is not a big deal is a stupid old fart.

Force Feedback is absolutly essential. Whats the point of a sim if you dont have force feedback? :| Force feedback effects these days are nothing like they used to be(vibrations). You cant drive withouht FF. YOu just cant. Its like driving with no audio or blind folded. THe wheel provides with all of the vital information. Tire state, road grip, track surface infromation....List is endles.

In a modern sim FF is absolutly essential.

And there are solid FF wheels. The Logitech Wheels are solid products. The GT4 wheel is 900 degrees, and ball bearings. Solid product. The Logitech MOMO is built like a truck. I own both. Both solid accurate products.

BTW none of the non-ff wheels TSW and the rest included beat the Logitech Driving Force Pro as far as resolution/accuracy goes.

In North America its Q1 2006. Its out in Scandinavia now, and its out in UK in 4 days. If you want it just import it from amazon.co.uk or somehting.

[st-anger]

...running into store buying a new PC :shock:

:mrgreen:

[st-anger]

...running into store buying a new PC :shock:

:mrgreen:

Well - I think I'll wait for Christmas... asking for both the game and the new computer :mrgreen:

...seriously - to those who´ve alreadey played it quite some time - is is that good, graphics already looking very promising but u mentioned that the SIMULATION is also quite impressive.....is it !???

i bought a PSII and GT4 only because of the NS driving as i wanted to check it out but i have to say that - of course it´s "just" a game - it´s not very close to the real thing, the real driving impression/feeling - to say it - not even close :? it´s quite good to practice the track a bit but a guy who only "drove" NS on PSII and then thinks he can go and ride the real thing will be quite surprised :wink:

from what i´ve seen i already love that GT Legends game and my serious question now - is it worth (to buy + new high-perf. PC ) !???

thx for your input guys... :P

[Fleischmann]

:drool: at the DeTomaso Pantera. graphics look really awesome, gotta finally upgrade my PC :(

[Gilles27]

Impressive screen shots. Bunch of nice cars to ride though it´s virtual...
And what about the tracks. Wich are aviable?

[Gilles27]

Certainly the Halloween ambientation has very good aspect. I have been charmed with it. Congrats!

Cool. Thanks for your thoughts on it.

I'm still kind of shying away from investing money in a nice computer and wheel setup as I know I wouldn't get anything done anymore. Maybe I could put like a 30 minutes a day restrictor on it or something.

Well I have the same problem, I have the right setup but no more then 2 hours a week to actually use it. But trust me. Nothing better then cranking up the speakers on a sunday morning and hotlapping spa in the tail happy 911 :wink:

are those shots used taken from an SLI pair of cards?
besides that.... 2 of my 3 favorite classics! :shock:

im guessing the 3rd one may not be there... the Lancia Stratos?

-Not sure if its SLI, not my shots. I can manage better my with my rig actually :wink: Which is a single 850XT

And no, no Stratos, it doesnt race in the FIA GTC TC Championship which GTL simulates :(

Here is an example of a high quality shot I took :wink: Clean no editing at all. Keep in mind that there is some quality loss when a screen is taken, it looks better in game. This is from the demo, there is a slight change in color in the full release, it doesnt have this cartoony glow in it in the real thing, but just shows you how "clean" the sim looks.

alright then, my 6800 ought to do that no problem then :)

[SFDMALEX]

alright then, my 6800 ought to do that no problem then :)

Is it an Ultra?

You still need a killer rig to run this baby full force :wink: Actually you need the best of the best to run this smooth with all the deatails.

People are actually having better results ATI cards with GTL, they seem to have an edge in this particular sim.

But a 6800 ULTRA or an OCed GT should run it just fine, with a few things like track side characters off...

Plus you have the choice of running in DX8 mode instead of DX9. Thats 30fps right there, but you do miss out on the DX9 goodies, but it will still look ace. :wink:

[nthfinity]

nah, its a GT but for $270 or so; it was quite the deal back in june :)
http://www.bfgtech.com/6800GTOC.html

i still havent tested my limits for o/c with the card (actually, right now my HDD is my biggest limiting factor... running about 1/10th speed... and the CPU is the next limiting factor @1.667ghz AMD xp 1900... which im almost 100% sure i could o/c to 2.0ghz.. but i didn't unlock the chip way back when.

Your card is up for the job but that chip is a major bottle neck for the card and for the system in general :|

You can pick up a 3200 for like 120$ these days :wink:

requiring a new MOBO, new chip, new HDD =too much $$

[SFDMALEX]

Eh, they just do a proper reformat, and run GTL in DX8 mode and you should be fine :wink:

[SFDMALEX]

Ya'll dont like my pics? :| Mehhhhh

[RC45]

I like em... but how is the incar-ingame...? experience.. not the replay eye-candy... :)

Some times in GTR it wasn't as polished as it should have been.

And the control - is it as exagerated in the under-steer department like GTR?

The part of GTR I found unltra un-realistic was the tendancy to plough like an Audi at 5mph ;)

In game is the best part, not the eye candy. Just go read comments people make, it feels stellar. Nothing like it. The fluidity, the feel...But keep in mind these cars are nothing like GTR. Tires dont have sharp slip curves, are much slower, much easier to drive, you can slide them around thanks to the tires they run. But they are still extremly hard to drive fast and on the limit...Trying to get a decent time out of an overpower Mustang is not easy, nor is trying to max out all you can from the underpowerd Lotus.

This trully feels polished, and with the patch in the works right now it is looking to be very stable and solid.

And there is no low speed understeer any more. That was an old engine issue...anyway anyone who experianced it was just driving too slow, because that was a a problem at extremly low speeds.

Anyway only you will know if its good for you or not by trying it.

Everybody loves it, even the online magazines do :lol:

OMG!
stunning car :-D
ok this is looking extremely pre-rendered, more likely... the T+L engine is far beyond that of any other racing game ever.

just to bring up an old topic... how many poly's per car were used in general?

[RC45]

How intrusive is the copy protection?

[SFDMALEX]

How intrusive is the copy protection?

Same old :cry: to be honest thats my only beef with the whole package is straforce...but the publishers just wont say no to it.

Nah man just so PS motion blur.


Oh and youd be surprised how low the polys are. I will tell you for sure tomorrow maybe, SimBin boys are not online to ask right now.

But it's lower than any other car game/sim out there.

[nthfinity]

But it's lower than any other car game/sim out there.

i dono, NFS 1 was pretty low poly count :P
oh, and dont forget carmageddon :lol:
just jocking w/you.

hehe. Carmageddon! I used to play that on LAN a lot. THat was a great game. Classic!

NFS1. Another classic. Its the game that really got me into exotics. I loved the Lambo.


But seriously the poly count is much lower then anything in GT4 or Toca or any of the car games. SimBin has top modelers on the team, these guys know how to make a low poly car that will look the same as a 60 000 poly model :wink:

[RC45]

But they still seem to have that "computer graphic" look that GT3 and GT4 managed to hide.

[nthfinity]

But they still seem to have that "computer graphic" look that GT3 and GT4 managed to hide.
im going to have to disagree with that based on the stills. even in photo mode it still looks like a computer graphic.

also dont forget your tv (if ps2 supports it, i dont think so tho) is at max running 720p, where your pc (at least mine) is running most games at 1600x1200

[SFDMALEX]

But they still seem to have that "computer graphic" look that GT3 and GT4 managed to hide.

Put it on your tely and it masks the "computer graphic" look.

Tried numerous computer games on the TV and the whole look changes since its not as sparkly and you cant see any details.

I was seriously considering this game, but anything with SF protection gets no attention from me. Too bad.

Your in a tough spot, more and more games are using it.

Sadly the only ones I do play use SF.

LOMAC, GTR and GTL.

well,that gt40's sky reflectinos are wayyy too bright for the background lighting... other then that, awsome :D

My Lada 2106 http://www.arman.xz.cz/webpics/2106_18.01.04_01.jpg for NFS4 had 4000 poly's :P NFS1 had around... 15 poly's :mrgreen: no, maybe 50-80 :)

Thanx for vids Alex 911 is in dl...

HAHA I remember, I used to download your cars way back in the day when I played NFS :wink:

Oh watch the drivers feet in the video.

See how he modulates the throttle and left foot brakes sometimes, sometimes right foot brake :wink:

[ARMAN]

:cry: you are KILLING me :!: Awsome sound, awsome looks, he passes CSL in vid... shame shade was off it would look even better with them :wink:

HAHA I remember, I used to download your cars way back in the day when I played NFS

really??? :shock:

[SFDMALEX]

really??? :shock:

Yep :wink:

[Minacious]

Thanks for the videos SFDMALEX!! :D The Pantera looks amazing... but what I've enjoyed most of those videos is the sound - it's bloody realistic!!! :shock: :D

I agree. The in-game visuals are nice, though I'm not blown away, but the sound is spot on.

[blinkmeat]

cool 911 vid - was hoping for some more power-slides and donuts :mrgreen:

Next one?

These guys are not running with all the settings maxed or even high :wink:

Ill get around to making my own vid when I get the time. Should be capable of running full deatal whist capturing since I can capture straight to the other hardrive.

[SFDMALEX]

donuts :mrgreen:



anyone ask for donuts? :wink:

My sig :wink:


Well you can do good with a 6600GT 1gb of ram, 2.8 P4.


But as all race sims its is very heavy on the system, very.


Oh and how do you like the start up smoke in the pantera vid? Cool eh :wink:

[blinkmeat]

actually the pantera vid hardly worked - just frozen primarily. But the porsche vid worked fine

with, or w/out starforce?

really, loading times are already enough of a pain in the ass...


BTW, the video of the 911 is great..... it reminds me a little of WR running his rally 911 in that 'one' video ;)... although, not as extreme, i'll be seeing the De Tamoso running in a bit :)

[SFDMALEX]

Well I dont like how the guy in the video put on a very fast steering box in the setup. Its not how the 911 should be, their steering racks are dead slow. I my'n up so I use my a lot of lock, WR style, just like in that vid :wink:

I need to get a digital camera and shoot a little video with everything in action a pedal cam a shifter cam a wheel cam....BM style :lol:

No I it got long before the release date as a gift.


Check out RSC for some links, there are places in the States who sell the import :wink:

[RC45]

Why can't it be purchased online?


Looks like Simbin are upto their old shit again.

What a pity - they didn't learn last time out. The game came and went from US retailers in about a month last time. The only people who bothered to buy it were the people who went and looked for it.

Do they not comprehend the importance of going on sale before Christmas?

OK - you cheap bastard - you always get the Simbin games for free and then promote them around here... which results in me spending $50 to buy the fucking things onlne... ;)

Which I just did... this better work... :)

I've been playing the demo for the last few days on my brothers computer. Its alot of fun so far. Although, I'm trying to play with just the keyboard. :roll:

I should have my new Logitech Driving Force Pro in a few days and will have a much more overall impression of the engine.

Why can't it be purchased online?


Looks like Simbin are upto their old shit again.

What a pity - they didn't learn last time out. The game came and went from US retailers in about a month last time. The only people who bothered to buy it were the people who went and looked for it.

Do they not comprehend the importance of going on sale before Christmas?

OK - you cheap bastard - you always get the Simbin games for free and then promote them around here... which results in me spending $50 to buy the fucking things onlne... ;)

Which I just did... this better work... :)

Yes it can be purchased online.

I agree, they loose a lot of money by not selling it in the States at the same time, but I guess they just cant do it. :| It will be Q12006 for the States...dont ask why, they heard all the complaints with GTR about release dates, guess its not that easy :|

And no Im not a cheap bastard, I also bought a copy from Sweden. And trust me, I dont get paid for any promotion work. I just happen to help out with some things here and there and I know the guys from the days when they where a mod team.

Here is my proof that I also bought a copy :wink:

ah well, my loss. :(

[1zippo1]

The videos and screens are very impressive. I'm going to ask around if someone I know has the game.

[TransAm]

I just picked it up from my local Frys for $29.99

Just installed it, going to have a go after I finish this post.

I might need to buy a new PC for this bloody game though :twisted:

edit: Love it! It's good fun on beginner, and quite challenging thereafter!

The Cortina must be RWD by the way :wink: pretty quick for an old girl too lol

I haven't enough post to put some pics, but new custom addons cars,not only skins but new mods start to be release.

[sameerrao]

My brother had this game. I recently played it for the last few weeks. This is an awesome game with a fun selection of cars from the 1960s and 1970s. You have Pantera, 275 GTB, Cobra, Corvette, Renault Alpine and many other cars.

In the semi-pro/pro mode the racing is quite realistic. The cars are on the knife edge and need finesse with the throttle to avoid spinning out. Awesome stuff!


Not much modifications options though. Its good in a way that you experience the car as it drove back then. But I am left wondering how the 275 would have performed with more modern slicks. Ah well you can't have everything in life. :)

The engine sounds seem pretty realistic except for the 275 which is a bit shriller than the real thing.

If you guys can get a hand on this game, go buy it. Its really fun!

I want to try this game, a more hardcore race sim, not the usual forza and GT.

I don't think it is as hardcore (read difficult to master) as GTR or GP Legends. In the amateur mode, the cars are quite easy to drive. With the semi pro mode, it gets more challenging and fun.

Buy it!

[HeilSvenska]

It can get a bit hairy in the highest difficulty settings, though. Wheel spins galore.

Try the Pro mode and get back to us about that one - especially when trying to race the Pantera hehe


Buy it!

This is the only comment needed though - and better yet, Buy GTR2 and get GT Legends for free in the box - Fry's and Best Buy still have the double retail pack for sale for $20.00 to $29.00

[nthfinity]

The ONLY way to go is full on simulation! Everything else feels silly to drive. Same with GTR. The most fun cars to drive are the "easiest" to spin...

And GTR's only $10 at regular stores now too!

Well $10 or $20 bucks for a game is a bargain compared to the 50$ or 60$ you pay for a PS3 or 360 game, but we are forgetting that in order to enjoy a sim game like this you need the proper tools "sim wheel", the new Logithech would be it, but that thing is 300$ or 400$ bucks if I can remember...

If you really want the sim experience to the fullest, the budget can get VERY big.... $10,000..... even $30,000+

But, for the casual sim racer, a Logitech GT, or MOMO is all that one needs, and they can be had for under 100$ now.

You need a decent processor to run the online racing (which is much more fun) so a pentium 4 or similar would work, a gig of ram would be recomended, and a Geforce 6xxx series is good enough to run full hi-def in the game.

Word is, that Simbin is working on a Ferrari ONLY sim that will work even better with a PCI physics card.... hardcore!

[nthfinity]

nth, I guess ill stick with my 360 and Forza 2 LOL

360 for $400
Forza 2 $60

PC - already have
Geforce 6200 .... prolly 100$ or less
FFB wheel less then 100$
GTR/ GTR2/ GT L combined price of 30-40$

you're really missing a lot :P

(BTW, I'm playing on a VERY old processor, and it only can't handle online gaming in the rain)

physics card game rumours have been aorund for a while - and each time theywere tested, the reality was "not much improvement" for the price and hassle. I'll believe a decent one when I see it onsale on the shelf making a decent difference :)

oh - and for the GT Legends fans, here's a little video I cooked up a year or so ago, that stayed under wraps till now...
