i am having serious fps problem at Valencia, during practice still not too bad dippin in the 30+, but during qualify dipped in the 20+, could be somethin to do with the roarin crowd sound?? guess i have to scale down graphics more
[Sempron64 2.2Ghz oced, 1G, 6800Ultra, driver 93.71NGO)

btw i just discovered this cool software (trialware) cam2pan which works with a webcam, and lets u free move in game with ur head movement - so ucan free look left and right (n up n down too). There is this trackir device which does the same function (RM600++) - but after trying this cam2pan with GTR2 i dun think ill be using it though, distractin my drivin - maybe try tweakin the settins could be good when doing close racing??

Try also to lessen the audio fx, its might help

lol......let's vote...every weekend also OK, can finish the 1st season early & can start WTCC/RACE/rFactor F1 league.

i vote race every Sunday....


looks like Valencia track is FPS killer.......everyone plz reduce your graphic setting...turn off the AA....switch to directx8.....test with 10 cars ahead...see your FPS...

Valencia's a very tricky track.
That last corner really suxx.
I reckoned a few drivers might not survive with me the 1st to crash out

Need a very very good setup for this track.

u r right - tricky, coming out with a good amount of fuel, i managed a nice 1:33, but as my car gets lighter im going slower 1:34-35???? and the bad framerate is not helping - im turnin off shadow n more tonite

btw just realized that u can check tyre wear during pitstop (the clipboard) my front right tyre is wearin out very quickly - i may be going for harder compound front

Hope tonite will get more racer tonite

Raikkonen : maybe you can ask setup from pccrazy?

and please lower your settings for tonite race.

we are considering this format :

2 weeks consecutive racing

1 week rest

2 weeks consecutive racing

Guys try running with DX8, it solve mine now back to normal fps (80++). Now I really missed rfactor fps

lower settings?
please provide details.

was in the server just now, when qualify session starts my fps dropped bad, so reducing the visual details is not helping!!?? in my case??

practice session lowest i get is 39 (no cars around) n up to 70, but qualify dropped in the 20s

maybe the extra ambient sounds (crowd) killing the framerates?? now i need to try disabling that somewhere??

just liek redline and izznatta post.

In the Audio option the defult sound fx is 16 try reduce it to 12 or 10

Official 2nd Round @ Valencia started..........plz join now...dedicated server automatic countdown....be early..!!!

Good Luck All....

Congrats to Madnoren, PcCrazy & Kimi for podium finish

Good race all....

my race was ruined with frequent visits to sand traps
but my start was great

well we had many retirements today

somethin wrong with cokpit view (shakin up n down??), i had to use bonnet view all the way with no rearview mirror
Made a big mistake final 8 laps, luckily i had a 20 seconds advantage - i dun even know who was attackin (can only hear the Ferrari engine), had to block the racing line to keep that 3rd position

btw is the graph correct - me on pole??

**************************************
how about we keep the race schedule as is, during the interval weeks we race slower NGT cars, all drive same car make - Porsche or Lotus etc

Yup, I thought it should be I was on pole.

I do recommend you guys put some rest in between races like evohahn recommended. We have some "tired" racers in our F1 league and I had to add a break in between to prevent fatigue. You guys are using wheel...your fatigue is probably worse than ours

Good point.
Even real F1 drivers needs 2 weeks break.
