 Any chance you can capture video Wiz?

Funny you mention this as I looked into it last night.  I think I got it figured out and will be posting some videos soon.  :)

And here's a short race around Watkins Glen...




Keep in mind this game is still in Alpha stage so you might see some goofy stuff.  Like at around 3:19 where some weird shadows that don't belong just disappear.

... I'm going to try and get signed up for this today...

So I tried to sign up, found out I have to pay them to help test their product.  I think I'll pass on that for now.

That was AI.  The multiplayer portion of the game isn't available yet.  At this point in development, the AI isn't very intelligent, especially when you get lots of cars on track, which is why you only see a few cars in my vid.  Depending on the track and your graphics settings, you can have up to 64 cars in a race.  I started a race yesterday with 46 cars in an attempt to create a vid to show you guys.  Problem was, the AI was crashing into each other like mad.  There are some AI settings to mess with so I'm going to play around with them today to see if I can make them less "crashy".

you might see some goofy stuff

Like at 2:24 :laugh

Exactly.  The crash physics have a long way to go but they are getting better.  On a somewhat related note, I think the damage modeling is looking pretty good.  Parts fly off and shit.  I'll see if I can find a good vid of this on youtube.



Also, a quick note for everyone...  if your PC is struggling running iRacing, you have no chance at being able to run this game with any kind of good graphics settings and maintaining a good FPS.  This game requires quite a bit more power than iRacing does.

Understandable.  Just so you know though, whatever money you put in now, you'll get a voucher for the same amount to put towards the retail version once it's released.  In other words, if you plan to buy the game, it's a wash.

Project CARS (Community Assisted Racing Simulator)

Funding for the game is raised entirely by the community and the developers themselves. Through the purchase of Tool Packs players can aid the development and gain special perks, depending on their financial contribution. After investing they are able to influence the project through its community portal and also receive a share of the game's profits after its release.

I did see the discount equal to the tools pack you purchase but that is also interesting, I expect it wouldn't be a terribly big share if all you invest is 10-45 euros but it's interesting nonetheless.  Might be too early but I don't suppose you have any info on the discount voucher Wizard, like is it just a credit to the account you purchased the tools pack with when the game's released or maybe like an Amazon voucher code or something else?

I am interested but I'll probably get it for the PS3 when it's released given my computer is kind of borderline spec wise (3+ year old 2.4Ghz Quad-core, 3Gb ram, 2Gb Nvidia card), so I don't want to drop too much money into it and get stuck with a discount or rebate I can't use :).
