Guys do you know what the lock camera to horizon (or something like that) setting does?

 

[Bob Luneski]

You're all doing wonders for my will power.

Resistance is futile!

What about Vertical Sync? You guy's use it?

It locks camera to horizon.

The more I drive it the more I like it. The feeling, the FFB, just great!

I want to buy this so bad, but I'm really undecided whether I should or not because of my PC specs. Here they are:

MSI 770-G45
AMD Phenom II X4 925
Radeon HD 5750 1GB
4GB RAM 1333MHz
Windows 8 64 bit
1920X1080 Resolution on 32" TV

Can I handle the game?

Told ya mate! all bad feelings about beta etc. will be gone after touching it! And it is great. But 458 is more harder to control with all aids off than I thought. On the other hand Even Jeremy in Top Gear turned ESC ON. And he's not the guy who fears ALL OFF option

Easily enough, you wont be able to crank up the graphics, but it still should look quite good.

Edit: Mhm, I overestimated that HD5750 a bit, so it could actually be a bit tight, but I can run it ok with a hd4870 with 512mb and and older double core.

Go to Menu click on Drive and then click on assist and there you have it

thank you!

Really? You are making it sound too good to be true. Well, time to get the wallet ready.

This game is fantastic. The replays look so real.

Edit: sorry that may not be the default ones but that's where I've installed new ones.

Ye I've found that too but the "shipped" ones don't seem to be in there. :/

 

[Frederic Schornstein]

I don't know tested some diffrent ingame FFB settings with my G25 and for me it feels terrible. I have absolutely no feel for the front and just a tiny bit for the rear and the wheel moving ingame is very nervous.
Maybe I can find something in the profiler, but the first impression isn't good for me...

 

[Tom Michelmore]

Hey I too would love to know if my specs are up to at least the minimum required. I'm a complete noob at computer specs as all I do know is that it can run Race 07 easily and that's a much less demanding game I guess.

Thanks for any help!

Results of fiddeling:

*Uncheck "lock camera to horizon"
*Uncheck "vertical sync"
*Set graphics as to get as much FPS as possible.
*On track, press home key, type: "set fpsCap 60" (or your monitors refresh rate) press enter, press home key again and press c key until you 're back at the right cam position. This caps frames at the value of your choice and doesn't seem to add lag.
Unfortunately you have to do this every time you start a new session. Edit: I think I remember this feature supposedly being in official settings in 1.0, dont quote me on that though.
*On track, use +- keys for FOV

Fantastic Beta. Loving it so far. Well done Kunos.

You have a better GPU and more RAM but I have a better CPU. Also, I am running higher resolution. I guess I shouldn't be too worried.

Thank you guys for all the help. Time to buy Assetto Corsa!

 

[Jos Swarthoff]

my game just hangs at the loading screen, what to do?

 

[Bob Luneski]

Has anyone tried it with ATI Eyefinity & triple monitors @ 5760x1080 ??
