No, not possible right now.
@Darkdeus Beautiful shots, this one is my favourite (wallpaper) for the reason mentioned about this car/track combo earlier in this thread

DEM PICS. You guys are good.
Maybe misunderstood, but to be clear, my pic is also from Darkdeus

I can only switch between in-car/helmet cam views - is this a bug? It happens with every car.

Once again I find myself commenting on the beauty of someone's Project Cars screens!

The cams are bundled in categories. Hold the button down to move to a new cat.
Still don't understand the reasoning behind this :/
The idea is far from intuitive. The first time I tried it, I reset the game two times and thinking about reinstalling because I thought the camera got broken. I had to search the forumsjust to find it was a new feature.
Heh, I didnt know about this.
Btw, when will pCARS-GAF gather online for few races?

Wow, does the image quality look this good at 1080p?

WTH are the DSX AA modes all about?
It's downsampling, so DS2X is 2x the resolution and DS4X is the game rendered at 4 times the resolution you have the game set to (don't expect to run either very well unless you have a complete monster of a pc)

Thought as much - 2160p w/ DS4X lol - DS9X refuses to boot.
Still appears to leave some jaggies over, though. Is their algorithm not that great atm?

Anyone know if this'll get a Japanese release? (Thinking of my WiiU).
It's not resolution, but pixel count.
2x = Is double height/or width, don't know which of the two = pixel count 2x
4x = Is double resolution (both hight and width x2) = pixel count 4x
9x = Is 3x times hight and width = pixel count 9x

Not sure what you're asking. Of course, it could look like that in 1080p, with downsampling and/or other AA-methods, but it sure would be demanding.

Yeah, hopefully we can get something going again. Online is always tough since we live all over the world, but the TTs had good participation. Kind of a shame they've locked the new blood out though.

I found an interesting article about Project Cars http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-04-18-driving-ambition-pcars-crowdfunding-and-the-fsa

Yep, but not when downsmapling resolution wise - the game refuses to boot at x9.
DS9X @ 1440p w/ a Titan/2500K nets me around 25-30FPS: VRAM usage sticks below 3GB.

I'm glad somebody is covering it.

The author of the article sent me a PM over at Race Department many months asking if I wanted to assist with his story. I looked at his one post history and decided to decline his offer. I'm sure quite a few people were contacted this way.
Check them out for yourself. Original 1080p versions:

What framerate are you able to run it at, Dd? I'd be super jelly if it was anywhere near 60fps (though having said that, I could well be able to get it to run like that as well... it's been a while since I bothered firing it up).
True and also in this matter, not just a few paragraphs. Do hope they get it sorted out, as I do like the "develop in front of you" model more than I do the "kickstarter" one and would love to see more games being developed like this one.
heh no where near 60fps. I only have a dual core e8400 and a gtx 470. I just turn the graphics up for screenshots. I was probably getting around 15-20 fps when these shots were taken : (
i think its time to upgrade from my gtx 260 lol

As do I. Gaming's version of the sushi bar. That part is very, very cool.
I'm sure i've said it before, but I'm just uncomfortable with the investment/dividend portion of their business model. It's pretty Wild West with no legal obligation to anyone. It's not really a precedent I'd like to see happen. Obviously I hope the British government doesn't axe the project though. I really like the project and virtually everything else they're trying to do, but the money thing needs some oversight.

Really sad to discover the game's been pushed back again to sometime in 2014
A moderator has said that will be released in Q2 2014.
Here a new 'Overlay Effect' video and helmet cam effect of Project CARS build 451, it's a lap in Nürburgring Nordschleife, the "Green Hell" with the Pagani Zonda R.

I hope you like it.
And new Formula for the next week, the Formula C:

thats very cool, i noticed though the framerate is lower for your arms than the game?
I though I read Q1 2014, but whatever it turns out to be, I do hope they take their time. (that is if if the budget allows it of course)
And nice vid Adrian, but you have the wrong tire on the Zonda R. I could not resist trying out the road tire (option -A) and it was pretty mental as expected. One lap video and new sun flare gif, first time I entered Beau Rivage I saw nothing and I crashed hard

I hate that kind of lens flare. Photography enthusiasts will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that kind of flare can only occur through a camera with a complex lens array. Certainly not your goddamn face anyway. Put it on the other views by all means, but first person? Makes no sense.
The flare "bits" themselves might be a bit much but the general aura of the sun is pretty good at sunset/sunrise. There hasn't been a game out there yet where driving into the sun actually makes it hard to see the road like it is for me in real life. I was driving at Lakeville/Sonoma earlier and was surprised at how well the sun setting affected my vision.

GTR2 did it in 2006... and while they put unnecessary artifacts in their flare too, it still seems a damn sight more realistic (when I think of how it looks to drive towards a low sun).

Augh YouTube is so SLOW to load anything now, even on low resolution.
And 16 seconds or so in, the sun seems to have that weird full radial effect practically through solid trees even past the gap, which doesn't seem super realistic to me.
I was going to add it to the post, as I figured someone would post this
, but forgot. They already have four different flare options (incl. non, as was the case with GTR2), I think in next weeks build, so don't worry to much.ConstructMe

Man i am so relieved i got into wmd now lol. They can take their time from my perspective.
