Does anyone still drive Grand Prix Legends? - Page 3

Arcade dudes don't like RFactor.
It is not a game you just press the loud peddle and steer round any track as the cars do have to be driven.
One thing you will probably need to do is reduce your steering wheel centreing in your options as this will give you more feel and better responce. Also make sure you do Not have combined pedals ticked in options as you want to be able to use the pedals independantly.

With the understeer you are suffering try shifting the weight of the car to the front just prior to entering the bend.
Basically you brake hard in a straight line then the weight shifts to the front/front wheels then you have more traction at the front and it will turn better.
Also decreasing the rear wing will make it turn better and increasing camber nad lowering ride height. Also do 5 laps then check your tyre temps, if not at optimal say 90-95 then reduce pressure to get the tyres to run hotter or increase pressure to make them run cooler.

This was something I meant to ask about but forgot - I noticed that it's on by default but didn't see an option to turn it off. It seems a dumb default option as if I brake while my foot is on the throttle all it does is reduce the amount of gas, and only starts braking when the gas is fully off. I've not been able to effective heel-toe (or left foot brake) at all.

Where's this option?

And Malc, can you PM me your MSN so I can add you and we can chat on there?

Go to control panel/game controllers/
Select your wheel then select properties the option is in there just untick the box.
You can then tweak the break to control the back end and help you turn using brake fading techniques.

Arrrggghhhh. The MSFF wheel doesn't support seperate axis

Justsomebloke · 27-11-2006, 14:50

Did you add me to MSN Feek ?
If not do so as that dude doesn't want my spare MOMO so there is a deal to be had there. I have 3 as i said so can deal you the one i am actually using now. It works perfectly and has had around 5 months use.
As i said beforer a no cash deal as that wouldn't be right so you will have to find something i want to deal me with.
Off the top of my head a DVD player as my one don't read every once in a while and i have to do the old in out with it.
What you reckon, any deals ideas or do you not want it ?

Got a link to the MOMO?

I do have a DVD player in a box doing nothing, can't remember what it is apart from being multi-region.

I'll have to dig it out, but sounds like we could be on a winner. Will add you tonight

That's the baby, there about 80 quid over here and a quick search found the cheapest for just under 80 quid. Damn good wheel mate you just have to take them apart after around 5 months. The fixxes are easy and have been done to this one with the pedals. Basically the pots on the pedals move about, if they wear you just take the 12 screws of the base resecure them and away you go for another 5months. The wheel is even easier to do as you just reposition a cog secure and away you go remembering to apply Proper plastic greese before you reassemble.
I have links to websites with the Momo fix with pics etc i got from google.
As i said the one i will send is the one i am actually using now so i know it is perfect. I will get my new one out the box and still have a spare, good a.
Odviously you cannot take advantage of any warranty and only a swap deal would make it right.
Seems fair to me
