Anyone else notice a typo in autovista for the Delorean? If you click on info about its wheels the onscreen says 14 inch but the announcer says 15 inch.

I would do, but i'm already part of a club with my mates. I don't think you can join more than one club can you?

So with the shared cars in the Neowin club, how does that work? I have not tried anything yet, just have seen them, so can I use them, or if I use them, does that mean I am the only person using them? If that makes any sense. :laugh: I am home sick today from work, so I will probably get a few hours in a bit later on.

Anyone can use the shared cars, but only the owners can modify them. I have to look and see if there's anyway of putting notes on the cars, I was going to share my A-Class drift cars, but they're nearly un-driveable as race cars.

Thanks for the reply. I am still on a Level 13, so once I get a bit higher up in the ranks, I will share any good cars I might have as well.

Pretty much the one downfall for using the wheel is the same downfall one has always had while using the wheel, it just does not have all of the buttons, such as LT. Also it is near impossible to apply any custom decals etc, as one cannot spin them using the wheel, at least not as far as I can see. I may be better off though, as I remember wasting hours with Forza 3 just playing around with decals. LOL

heh heh you're using the wheel again? is it the same one from the previous two Forzas?

and what's all this with the neowin club? nice initiative. as for the game, really love it, better racer even than the previous one and glad they incorporated some of the wacky PGR stuff, like the bowling pins. also glad particle effects are back, finally some dust and stuff flying around, unlike in Forza 3. my only disappointment is the soundtrack. it's still good and ambient, but nothing like the sheer epicness of the menu music from Forza 3.

I haven't really heard the music much until yesterday. I was streaming music from TVersity so I was just listening to what I wanted, but since my 360 and laptop don't seem to want to stream I've listened to the game's own soundtrack. It's pretty good, actually!

Yep same wheel. I have had this wheel now for awhile, a good 4 years now if not longer. Only downside with the wheel is they did a recall on the power supply. I called MS as instructed way back then, twice actually, both times I was told I was getting the new power supply mailed out to me, but I never got it?? Which was indeed odd as there support was always super responsive, etc. Maybe they deemed I had one of the okay wheels, but I am constantly feeling the power supply just to make sure it is not overheating. :s It does seem to be fine though, I have never even come close to seeing smoke, etc., so I am pretty sure it is good to use. Still, would have put my mind at ease if I got the replacement power supply. It makes the game so much better though, like there is not even a question if it is better with the wheel or not.

Great. So I kicked the 2 remaining members of my club so I could close it but if I try to leave it I can't. It tells me that I must promote someone to leader before I can leave it. is there no way to close a club?

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Still hate Windows 11, I stuck it on my gaming machine again just for a nose to see what they had done, still as bad. Will restore Windows 10 back on it, suit MS anyway, they don't want me to run Windows 11 on it.
    • Ms did go with the you must sign into an account thing with Windows 8 for a while. The same sort of thing they are doing with Windows now and the MS account.
    • Hello, What sort of Microsoft Authenticator account login approval requests are you getting?  It is a generic authentication app and can be used with all sorts of services (Microsoft Account, Google Account, websites and services that support multi-factor authentication, etc.).

    • Windows 8? Nah. I found Window 8 worked well, get a third party start menu to get rid of the start screen, I used Start is back and windows 8 was pretty good. I used it even when Windows 10 came out as I found Windows 10 was iffy on my machine at the time was AMD FX Bulldozer based. It was only when I updated the innards to Ryzen that I had no choice but to go to Windows 10 as MS made it difficult to stay with Windows 8. ME, yes, that was not great, I liked the look of it, but it was not stable, shame really because Windows 98SE was the best of the dos based Windows.
