Recommended Posts

WOO my copy just dropped onto my door mat!! installed and had a quick blast the game autosets to 1680x1050 with everything on either high or ultra, no vsync atm but the game is even smoother than the demo and is really really good!!!! 10/10

To all Logitech Cordless Rumblepad? 2b> owners !!!

Just to let you guys know, there are problems with the Logitech Rumblepad 2 that we're aware of. I've posted here explaining the problem, and I've mentioned there that it will be fixed in a patch.

I think now is a good time to also mention that we're adding full support for the Logitech Rumblepad 2 in the patch aswell, so there will be a default setup, and you'll be able to control the menus too.

I got it today :)

I love it! it made me realise how important analogue throttle and brake levers are though so will buy a 360pad for it shortly :p

Runs amazing on my machine (q6600 8800gt vista32 4gb ram) at 1920x1200 max settings with 4xFSAA. I get an average of 45fps or more with Vsync enabled, very smooth.

I watched some of the gameplay videos of GRID and was quite impressed with the visuals. It seems it has an arcade feel to it like Need for Speed: Carbon. Everyone seems to be complaining about the controls. How bad are the controls really compared to the past two games from the NFS series and DiRT?

It's a combination of a lot of things.

The turning seems very 'soft', like driving a bag of marshmallows, not a heavy car.

Also you tend to drift a lot and the camera angles in the turns are crappy at best, so overall you feel

like you are driving a shopping cart with a camera man trying to follow you.

Most Arcade racers I've played, the controls have been very firm and responsive, this just seems 'wrong'.

But some people love it, so I guess It's just a matter of downloading the demo and trying it out.

It is too aracdey i think to give you these real cars to race around in. PGR4 gave you the right blend of sim and arcade racing. I was hoping for something like that with GRID but instead we got Ridge Racer.

Everything else about the game is brilliant, graphics, presentation and sound. Just the handling is terrible and ruins any fun you'll have from the game.

I got a 360 gamepad today and it rocks, wireless freedom!

I also am playing much better now!

First of all I came second with some rough driving:

And then I came first with skills!

I ended up getting it from HMV as it's still not on Steam, runs better then the demo on my rig.

One minor annoyance is that the install didn't create a start menu shortcut so I had to fart about creating my own.

you have vista right?

you have to go into the games explorer and copy the shortcut to desktop.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
