GSC Extreme v1.25 is out - now also on Steam!

Steam Release Info

If you already own it you may now switch your Serial Number for a Steam key from the official GSC Extreme website:

This is valid for purchases made from release until February 9th 2015. New non-Steam purchases will NO LONGER warrant Steam keys.

Existing NonSteam installs will continue to work even if you do switch your Serial Number for a Steam key, but you will not be able to use the Serial Number again for an install in a fresh system.

Moving to Steam is recommended, but not required. Just like in this release, the plan is to continue updating both versions simultaneously. If you do prefer to keep multiple installs of the game for mods, be advised that for now is not possible with Steam.

INSTALLATION (Non-Steam users):

Update to v1.25 by running GSC Sync.

If you are having any trouble updating via GSC Sync, you may download v1.21 to v1.25 update package from this link, and then add the v1.251 & v1.252 update package from this link to bring your game up to date.

I haven't read all 7 pages of posts, so forgive me if this has been asked. Since the update, the V12s and the Mini no longer have launch control (there may be others, I've not checked). Have these been removed on purpose?

I really like the update by the way. The Metalmoro is great fun, I keep taking it for a spin around Jacarepagua. Thanks so much!!
 
Only had a few hours driving with Steam v1.25, have to say Reiza has done a fine job with it. The grip and car handling physics are lot more enjoyable on all cars now. The audio is seems a lot more realistic at high speeds with the wind effects, also along with the improved engine sounds. I can't compare to other next gen titles like AC- rF2 ect, as I don't own them but a lot of boxes have been ticked now with GSC :thumbsup:
 
Hi guys,
i have a problem.
I downloaded gsc installed in steam.
Pressing the GSC icon, the simulation will not start.
The configuration window opens up, I put everything on and pressing OK, the window is built on new and all the settings were not included. :(

I uninstalled everything and filled with new but helped it has not.
gsc not start.


I hope you can help me.
 
on a different note... Is it just me that doesnt like the starting light sounds? sounds like an old c64 racer.

sorry reiza.

Also trying some Fextreme races with ai at 100% especially at interlagos it was like a destruction derby, carnage at the start. The Ai seem to be tvery unbalanced across cars, almost like they cant handle the overpowered cars.
