You keep going on about the immersion of that ****ty 3D in the context of driving, talking about some weak ass immersion that won't even touch the surface of the real thing and is then rendered completely out of context! YOU brought 3D up in relation to OUR discussion about the thrill of real-life racing.

but 3d glasses is still closer on topic than real life driving, since GT5 will have 3d glasses support

and i really think that there will be more 3d glasses and copies of GT5 sold, than there will be sports cars... driving a sports car will and should remain an exotic and exclusive experience, while GT5 and 3d glasses are relevant to alot of people...

And that wasn't the discussion, you basically took one of my posts completely out of context which was said in a totally different discussion and then you add something completely irrelevant - Please don't ever do that again and learn how to take part of a discussion, that would be swell.

Is that also how you communicate with your peers, take a random sentence in a discussion and then say something totally unrelated?

it may have sounded random to you, but that was assuredly not my intention

your talk of driving experience , while appropriate, is out of reach for the masses, unlike readily available consumer electronics and video games

it is most definitely relevant to the discussion in the sense that 3d will bring the gaming experience towards that of actual driving, i have already made the point that it will not take the experience all the way there...

I was talking about one, single aspect of the driving experience that can't be enhanced or re-created with 3D glasses, ever. I wasn't talking about it in general. So you basically started another discussion on top of mine by taking something out of context, hence the confusion. I didn't mean to be hostile, I just hate when someone takes discussions out of context or completely misses the point, adding something unrelated on top of it.

And now we're just beating a dead horse again and again, I'm off.

lol Sethos, everywhere i go on this forum seems to be after you having a battle :p only joking!

but I dont think GT5 needs 3D, its going to be amazing, especially if I'm right in thinking that it is going to be in 1080p HD?

I was really looking forward to GT5 but after playing the Demo there are 2 things that I really don't like about it at all.

And that 1 being the control. I think it just plain sucks! I can not for the life of me keep my car on the track! I keep hitting into the walls. This is not how people drive in real life. And my second issue is what is with all the screeching noise? There is was too much screeching noise going on in this game.

Other then those 2 things GT5 looks amazing!

Its just very sad if this is how the control is going to be for all cars ireful2.gif

Anyone here agree with me?

I used to play a game call World Racing on the PC which had great control and you were able to stay on the road most of the time. I wish GT5 was like that.

It's explained perfectly cleary the demo is on professional physics as it's purpose is for GT Acadmey to recruit people who can actually drive. Winners go onto actually race a real car.

It's NOT a proper GT5 demo.

ps. Sorry Seth buddy, no time.

GT5 isn't designed to be a game where you pick up the controller and become an expert in 10 minutes, it takes more practice than other games. having said that, you should be able to get the basics sorted fairly quickly...

first thing i did was change the throttle to a trigger button, then you can adjust it as needs be. wheelspinning is generally a result of too much power too soon. try to graduate it slightly.

A suggestion to the new racers, map the keys to the R2 and L2 triggers, as that's the only mappable buttons on the controller that let's you have the full control over the throttle and breaks. The standard controls, the X and square button works like an on or off key and they are completely useless.

AB: Okay (Y)

Would GT5 be a lot better control wise if I used a racing wheel?

I have never owned a racing wheel before but if it would make playing GT5 better control wise then I would get one.

If you can't drive with the controller, no chance with the wheel either I'd think. "Upgrading" to a wheel will only help you take lines more accurately and control your speed and breaking a lot more precisely.

They're not that useless (and certainly aren't on/off keys). It can be tricky to get fine control of the throttle quickly but it is certainly possible to control the throttle/brake with the normal X/Y keys.

Well, you go ahead and use them then :p

yeah i don't get why GT by default maps the accel and brake to those buttons when you have pressure sensitive trigger buttons... Especially in a simulator where hitting the brake to a certain point or accelerator can shave off seconds here and there.

Sorry if this was posted elsewhere, i did a quick browse and didnt see it.. i just saw this and was left in awe...holy **** it looks better than i anticipated. it just looks....REAL!

-snip-

It looks amazing, but that's the replay mode...so it's unscaled. The actual game play will be different.

i think the comparison between the ingame graphics and real life , that was the point of the video

and there's only one or two points in the video where i can definitely say for sure if its in-game or real life, like the birds arent realistic and the reflections are abit pixelated....

but other than that...

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

Regular Updates – Community-driven development with new features and fixes. WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      Tor Browser 15.0.17 by Razvan Serea Protect your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody from watching your Internet connection and learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained.
