I got into the 1.24 again few days ago!

I had this problem. Go to controls menu and set brakes and throttle. I have a DFGT and even when the axxis was correct, it only uses half of it by default. Once this changes, driving is much more forgiving (and gratifying).Orgun said:What!? That's batshit! I feel much more confident in 2011 than I do in this, in this I'm scared of the throttle - though that could be because my throttle doesn't register until its half depressed.
Oh and I guess the difference in feel could be because of F1 vs Formula B

Lately I haven't been able to play too much. Today I've played 74 build for the first time and somehow it feels better. I don't know why, but it feels better. I did 1,27,x at Imola. There're lots of turns that I still don't really know how to take, but that's part of the fun, isn't it? Now having played many sims doesn't help either.
Anyway, I'm having a lot of fun and the AI is entertaining in its own way. Kind of retarded, but entertaining nonetheless. I think it's a very good starting point.
That's not what I mean. When you go to controls, select configure buttons. Then go to Throttle and Brakes and set the buttons you want to use, pedals in this case. From then on, the game registers them to their fullest instead of only the second half. The game recognises the pedals by default, but for some odd reason, the vanilla configuration is set so it only registers the second 50% of the pedals. That's why you have to overwrite it.Orgun said:What did you set brakes and throttle to? I tried messing with them a bit but couldnt find a setting that worked.
I don't think you will have any problem with that. Me and a friend of mine got the refund without any problem. I'd recommend you the Team Member, although remember that you can sign as a Junior and upgrade at any time by paying the difference.gragy10 said:Tempted to jump on this when/if Steam refund me for the F1 2011 clusterfuck tho looks like a wheel is mandatory

I had lag too, at least with the different vision options (looking behind you etc.), possibly also with controls. Hopefully it's something they can just find and fix. If not, I guess we have to donate $25,000 and jump into their meetings to bug them about it. Though technically I guess team members can create forum threads...maybe?Kyaw said:Oh my gawd you guys...
Can you guys post the steering wheel settings please?
I have quite a bit of lag in steering and throttle inputs.
I signed onto the project to support it even though I don't have a wheel and am not a big racing person. For what it's worth, it automatically detects, maps, and supports a wired 360 controller, so you can probably play it that way if you wish. For that matter you can even steer with the arrow keys, but that's NOT advised. =Pgragy10 said:Tempted to jump on this when/if Steam refund me for the F1 2011 clusterfuck tho looks like a wheel is mandatory

Dilly said:Build 74 is out and has some Formula B tweaks, I feel like I can really push the thing now.
Just did a 1.23.045
Lucius86 said:Wow, very impressive!
Any chance of a vid or two??
¡Pero qué locura es esta!Dilly said:I'll upload a new one tomorrow.
I can really push the thing through corners now with build 74, fastest lap 1.22.1xx.
Interesting. We should inquire how they plan to pay back based on sales, then, since "sales" would not correspond to normal sales in that case.fresquito said:The business model is F2P with DLC. That's as far as I know. You get a free copy of the game, but that's a bit silly, considering the game is F2P, so I asume all Team Members get all the content for free. That said, maybe the DLC that hits down the line will not be for free... I don't know. I should ask :-/
Blizzard said:Hmm, I just noticed the "discounted items" thing in the tier list. Have they announced if they are planning microtransactions/paid DLC?
At any rate, I think I am going to make a silly challenge if anyone in this thread is interested, assuming Evilore/mods don't mind. Can someone (the OP?) volunteer to track how many GAF people have signed up for the project, and what their level is? Here's the deal:
If enough GAF people sign up to total 1000 euros ($1366 USD or so), at whatever level, I will match that by upgrading my own account to the 1000 euro level. Then if any graphics people at GAF can chip in, we can get our own billboard, livery, and so forth. I don't know how the discounted items and track day stuff will work, but presumably that bonus might be something that works for everyone.
Anyway, if no one is interested, that's fine and I'll save money, but if anyone is interested, it would take 100 junior member accounts, or 40 team member accounts to reach the goal. Thoughts, anyone?
Maybe I don't, but don't worry, we'll never get enough GAF members to match! ;pLucius86 said:You have 1000 euros to spend on this? Are you sure?!? That's a lot of money....
I'm a team member too.
Well, if things go right, he will triple that money if the game makes money equivalent to 1m units sold across four platforms.Lucius86 said:You have 1000 euros to spend on this? Are you sure?!? That's a lot of money....

The final distribution method isn't decided yet, the F2P model is just one possibility. It's up to all of us to decide on the best approach as the game takes shape, as well as how the gaming market stands a year or so down the line. In terms of your return - this is quite simply a proportion of the total income generated by the game.
I don't know the answer to the "who gets a free copy" question yet, but I'll find out.
What Andy said, plus the intention is to ensure that everyone gets the equivalent of a 25 Euros worth of free content come ship date regardless of the monetisation method. Your fees will of course be paid on top of this.
The 50K is just for the rights to use the track name. The scanning would be an additional cost.
Thanks for looking into it. That means that the payment back to the "investors" (even though they have lots of legal wording saying it's not an "invesment") would be out of whatever monetization scheme they decide on eventually. Hopefully it works out. Worst case, everyone loses their money due to tax fraud or something. =Pfresquito said:Thread on WMD Forums (if you're willing to take part on the discussion): http://forum.wmdportal.com/showthread.php?668-Discounts-free-to-play-free-copies...&p=8580#post8580
Yeah, it's one of the hot topics. They're well aware about input lag and are working hard to get rid of it.Blizzard said:Thanks for looking into it.

Anyway, if I get some spare time I should look into the forums again. Did you happen to spot anything about input latency? I would like to at least make sure that's an issue they're aware of.
Sweet. Drop us a thread link if you come across it, please.fresquito said:Yeah, it's one of the hot topics. They're well aware about input lag and are working hard to get rid of it.
