[QUOTE=waylander;30148530]dunno if this has changed but it really annoyed me how older games didnt support the dfgt (GRiD and DiRT2 are two games that didnt support it) and the clamp is terrible it wont attach to a lot of desk and is fragile, on the other hand for the price the FFB is great, try it with shift default settings and a muscle car its so powerful it snaps the wheel out of your hands[/QUOTE] DFGT works with both GRiD and dirt2, and you can use a knife or something to tighten the clamp if your desk is too slippery

Richard Burns Rally is the best ever, albeit kinda outdated now
a remake/a richard burns rally 2 would be awesome

Buying a wheel is so far the best decision I've made this year. Landing a jump gives bitchin' FF on the wheel! If only Dirt 3 would stop crashing to my desktop every once in a while.

[QUOTE=Ollih;30158649]Try live for speed, it feels amazingly natural on wheel[/QUOTE] isnt live for speed practically a ghost town now?
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;30144609]I wonder if they will have the Pikes Peaks course as DLC since they have the cars[/QUOTE] They need to make it the proper length though, The world record is almost exactly 10 minutes, and in the first DIRT it took me less than 7 minutes.

Is it just me or is DiRT 3 downloading a 615mb update?
[QUOTE=icemaz;30163344]Is it just me or is DiRT 3 downloading a 615mb update?[/QUOTE] Yeah, can't find any patch notes.
[QUOTE=Ollih;30154784]DFGT works with both GRiD and dirt2, and you can use a knife or something to tighten the clamp if your desk is too slippery[/QUOTE] unless they have been patched since f12010 was released out the box the dfgt does not work with grid or dirt2 you have to find control maps to enable it, and its not that my desk is to slippery i cant really describe the problem without a picture but with my office style desk its impossible to attach the clamps securely, tightening them with a knife or other object is a bad idea i broke one doing that (the clamp not a knife)
Uh I've been using dfgt in grid and dirt2 since forever [editline]31st May 2011[/editline] you're doing something wrong

It worked for me straight away in both
[QUOTE=icemaz;30163344]Is it just me or is DiRT 3 downloading a 615mb update?[/QUOTE] Same :v: Must have been an update. It said my download, "time initiated" was 21:30ish and it's like 22:15 now. Possible.
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;30164053]to make the DFGT to work with dirt2 you go into the registry and change some values it definitely didnt work with me until i changed the registry[/QUOTE] iirc your correct you have to make the games think the dfgt is a dfp [editline]31st May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Ollih;30164101]It worked for me straight away in both[/QUOTE] [url]http://community.codemasters.com/forum/dirt-2-game-pc-1313/394874-pc-dirt-2-supported-controllers-steering-wheels.html[/url] no it did not it isnt on the supported wheel list
We have a DiRT 3 PC patch scheduled for release in the near future, the following issues have been addressed by this patch: • Time of day and weather options are now correctly saved within Jam Session save/restore slots. • Fixed an occasional loading screen hang which could leave the player with a black screen. • Fixed a soft lock when removing the Ethernet cable on some screens during a LAN session. • Battersea Compound – Parking Lot environment updated to ensure that smash blocks are always present. • Resolved specific instances of the player being able to drive into areas of crowd. • Corrected a rare issue with online staggered start team events which could lead to incorrect team scoring. • Fixed a very rare physics issue which could lead to the player’s vehicle falling through the world. • Fixed two graphics issues which could lead to a crash when changing resolution or resizing the windowed game to a height of 0 pixels. • Resolved an issue preventing Player 2 from re-binding their controls if using a keyboard within a split-screen event. • Fixed an issue which, in specific circumstances, could lead to a spectator seeing incorrect progress during a multiplayer Transporter event. • Minor corrections to track boundary and reset lines. • Fixed an issue which will occasionally cause the green ‘infected’ effect to be applied to the player’s car during loading between Outbreak events. • ‘World Record’ and ‘Personal Best’ symbols now correctly appear within all circuit-based time trial events. • Correction to particle behaviour during high speed collisions, avoiding any instances of them spawning in the wrong direction. • Minor finish line adjustments to avoid the possibility of bypassing them in some routes. • Fixed an issue which lead to the driver’s hands clipping when in the interior camera ‘brace’ position. • Resolved an issue which would occasionally prevent the ‘World Tour’ tetras from spinning within the front end. • Resolved an issue which could lead to some vehicle cards flickering within the front end vehicle select screens. • Adjusted a small number of text references and menu options for the ‘VIP Pack’, which should be referred to as the ‘Free Car Pack’ for PC. • Various stability fixes. Patches for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game along with an additional patch for the PC are also currently in development, and further details regarding these will be provided at a later date once the patches have been completed and passed the submission process with Microsoft and Sony. Please keep providing your feedback on any game issues you encounter, as this is of great help to the dev team when they attempt to replicate and resolve these issues in-house
saw this a couple of days ago, still not got around to installing it [url]http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst115ahotfix.aspx[/url] improves performance for dirt3
They really need to add how long the tracks are to the singleplayer menu, I can't be bothered memorizing the names of all the long tracks.
i think it should show you a map so you know what sort of gear ratio to pick
[QUOTE=waylander;30164426] no it did not it isnt on the supported wheel list[/QUOTE] It did
I tried the Pikes Peak Quattro, man that cars insane. The acceleration from 0-100

[QUOTE=venom;30165734][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-AF9V7TFck&feature=player_detailpage#t=50s[/media] (around 50 seconds in)[/QUOTE] Ken Block is so shit at rallying, it's like he has no confidence in the corners which is strange when you consider his Gymkhana videos. Some of his Gymkhana stunts look much more harder than that rally track.. is he just in for the sponsoring?
