[xbonez]

just started. as of now, only beaten UK stage 01

*s2.supload.com/thumbs/default/uk01.JPG

 

[s18000rpm]

use car setup.

with right car setup, the time improves.

 

[xbonez]

i play chellenge and then select stage. i don't get any option for car setup. where is it supposed to be?

 

[s18000rpm]

after you select "Challenge", in the Challenge menu, goto "Options", here you can select "Setup -On/Off", Damage level...


btw if you're free now, can you come on hamachi @10:30, i wanna try the LAN play in CMR05, never tried before

 

[xbonez]

coming online

 

[s18000rpm]

me & xbonez played CMR05 over LAN (thru hamachi), was fun.

anyone who wants to play CMR05, tell the timings when you can play it.

------------------------


CMR05 runs without any FPS issues ONLY in RAINY Stages, now how weird is that? LOL, asaik games become slow when Rain effect is there, but GMA X3000 says otherwise LOL

tried runnin it at lowest setting, but still FPS issue is there in dry stages, maybe the SUN (light) causes the FPS issue.

it runs smooth in dim lit stages (afternoon settings) too, yesterday i raced in Finland stages with rain & thought that this v14b of beta driver solved CMR problem.

anyways lets race again after 9:30pm

 

[W i d e S c r e e N]

Is Impreza only crdible car for this game?
What about the SUVs?
Lancer.?
Cult Cars?

 

[s18000rpm]

nope, but Impreza is a legend jus like the Lan Evo VI , Audi Quattro & the Lancia Stratos.

the fastest car is Citreon. in 4x4.

 

[W i d e S c r e e N]

Stratos is difficult to control...
I try audi. thx

 

[Harvik780]

I would be happy if someone discusses about Colin Mcrae Dirt.

 

[s18000rpm]

^its a killer game.


gfx. card & CPU Killer that is.

wud hav loved it if it had the old CMR05 type handling & a LOT LESS min. system requirements

btw why do these Codies & EA guys make unmoddable games

it gets a bit boring after playing all stages/tracks in all cars. to top it all codies have put a lot less Stages in DiRT wen compared with CMR05.

atleast take example from other games, like SimBin's GTR2, GTL, RACE: WTCC... in which we add the TRACK , Car... mods.

as of now i've installed 18 Addon tracks in GTR2. so it (gtr2) doesnt get boring, as we can keep adding our favourite tracks...& keep playing.
