Racing Games :Which and will they run....??

[Shalu_Sharma]

Hello I am a racing game fan (But I like Sims more).

Can anyone suggest me good racing games in budget (No more then 1500 rs.)

And they must be playable in my config.

Intel 865 MB.
256 MB ram.
80 GB hdd.
Ac97 onboard audio.

## And PLZ dont suggest to upgrade. I am not in a situation to upgrade. Hope I will get a reply soon. ##

I have seen s18000rpm mentioning game like CMR 05, and F1 and RBR.
Will they run on my PC with playable FPS.
Or atleast name their older version which will run.

[Third Eye]

Need for speed most wanted - will run perfect in low settings

[Quiz_Master]

I have a similar kind of config. I too wanna know that McRea rally will run or not..

[abhi.eternal]

that config is good enough to play most of the games at low settings if you have updated driver for your VGA

[s18000rpm]

CMR05, F1C ('99-'02 Challenge) will run for sure without any hick-ups :D

F1C will run at even 1024*760 resolutioin :D

NFS MW will have usual hickups every now & then one has to wait for 5 minutes when game/race/safe house loads.:))


RBR will have some FPS issues:( (256RAM)
btw RBR is a game i'll not recommend, unless you're a hardcore WRC & Sim. fan & yes you'll need a Steering Wheel to enjoy this game. (gamepad wont be enuf, trust me:)))

other soft sim. racers are NFS Porsche Unleashed (NFS PU), really nice game, imo the BEST NFS title so far.

you can also try Live For Speed (www.liveforspeed.com)

F1 - ~Rs.500/-
NFS PU - ~Rs.500/-
CMR05 - ~hard to find:(
RBR - same, hard to find.
NFS MW - ~Rs. 1200

[Goten]

Actuallly running games at low settings doesnt give u the rush n feel of that game.

Its better if u opt for Need For Speed:Underground 1 n 2.

CMR05 may run fine on ur pc n same goes for F1.

Peace~~~!

[Shalu_Sharma]

So I am going to buy
CMR05
NFS PU
and F1

and
I will get
RBR and
NFS MW (I have sources. :grin: And a unlimited connection too.)

Are there any more Racing games.
Do anyone played Safari Biatholon.

[s18000rpm]

you'll have really bad time with RBR & NFS MW.

each game's brilliant, but playing them on 256MB RAM..., serioulsly you'll be hating the game (coz nobody blame their PC :))).

in RBR the control input will get delayed. NFS MW-> you'll miss the gorgeous gfx. of the game.

anyway, if you still go with NFS MW, then have a look here -> Advanced Game Tweaks (http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34121), might help in speeding up some process :D

any suggestion for me...
i have
AMD 3000+
1gb ram, 7300GT

i can only play with keyboard

what does RBR stand for?

[s18000rpm]

RBR- Richard Burns Rally.

with your config, you can try out the BIG BOSSes of sim. racers,- GTR2, RACE - The WTCC Game, Test Drive Unlimited [TDU] (arcade, but great gfx.), GTI Racing (all VW cars), OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast (all ferrari's)


but with GTR2 even a gamepad is in-effective, so i think you'll have to skip GTR2.

[vish786]

AMD 3000+

what does RBR stand for?
u can play any game man ppl who have processor running with 3Ghz and 512 mb ram with a decent graphics from fx 5200 can play any game but not at max settings:D

u hav a good gfx card which will reduce the load on ram

[blackleopard92]

thanks people, but i am not a hard core sim fan. NFS series is waay too arcade for me.(excluding porsche) I like tuning my car, but my experience with sims have been very bad. they arn't even half keyboard friendly.

so which of the above mentioned are playable with keyboard?

[s18000rpm]

TDU, CMR05, Outrun 2006 - Coast to Coast.

try to get a gamepad, starts from as low as Rs.250 (Chinese makes) to Rs.1000+(branded).

with a GamePad, the gaming experience would be a bit better.

[prasad_den]

Can someone help me...?? I have a P4 2.4 GHz with Intel 845GVSR MoBo, 512 MB RAM, 80 GB HDD, only KB and mouse, and no GFx cards, and no provision to upgrade it any sooner...!!

[s18000rpm]

GTI Racing , CMR05, GTR (not GTR2), ToCA Race Driver 3, Evolution GT...

[prasad_den]

^^^ thanks mate.. Which of the above do you recommend..?? Its preferable that I be able to play with good settings, if not the best.
I have a limited BB connection...:D:

[s18000rpm]

Toca is good, has loads of games in it, like GT(road car) racing, buggy races, F1 like races.... [1+GB installer size]

cmr05 is 3+GB (install file), caters only WRC races, but better gfx.

GTi racing has only VW cars (less than 1GB (install size)), but better gfx., u can turn on/off lights....(just like NFS PU)

GTR (1GB), but not recommended.

you can try the new X-Pand Rally Xtreme, its a two-in one, you can manually select whether to play in "Arcade mode" or "simulation mode", car gfx. not good, but heck, has the LONGEST tracks.

Ok I got CMR05 running today...
Now I know why s18000rpm is this games FAN. I amazed of the level of customization it offered. Very good game indeed.
But graphics are not as good as gameplay. (Perhaps because of my slow machine.) but still many many thanks to s18000rpm.

Wait for dirt. You will be more amazed with almost all aspect from gameplay to graphics. :)

Try Toca Race Driver 3 too
It is better than CMR2005

:D

you're the FIRST Girl, i know who liked Colin McRae 05 :D & a Simulation fan :D, i guess you're one of the only FOUR ppl. (here) who play CMR05.

btw, for CMR05, check this post-> Simulation Racing Games Discussion - some useful Tips for CMR05 (http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=478025&postcount=207)

& a general tip, LISTEN CAREFULLY to what your Co-Driver says.

btw is the "reflection" on cars working.
& does the game crash when selecting "Car Set-up" ?:))


you may find some useful files/utility/MODS for CMR05 & other Sim. racers here

[Shalu_Sharma]

^^ No I am playing game on low settings so reflection is not working (I guess thats the reason.)
And Game is not crashing at car set-up. I installed Car-Setup crash fix.

And yeah thanks for those tips. they really helped.

I completed 42 Races.

Can you tell me which is the best Car in NFS: MW

[Third Eye]

^McLaren is the best car

[s18000rpm]

c'mon man McLaren ?

Its BMW M3 GTR :twisted:
http://www.supload.us/thumbs/default/nfsmw018_NFS.jpg (http://www.supload.us/free/nfsmw018_NFS.jpg/view/)



next to BMW, its Gallardo :D

[Shalu_Sharma]

I mean to say the best car I can pick at the game's start.
But I heard McLaren is faster?? Isn't it?


@s18000rpm. You are really a BMW freak. {No pun intended.}.:grin:

Cops are giving me headaches in MW, any suggestions?

[vish786]

@shalu sharma....

use trainer u can download from megagames.com

[s18000rpm]

best car at the very start-> VW Golf GTi. (costs 35k)

to buy this car, if you have NFS U2 installed, then you're awarded $10000 as bonus (total = $40,000). if you dont have NFS U2, then just put a NFS U2 save file in "My Documents". [those who have NFS U2, help her out , for where to put the file at.]

NFSMW Guide @ GamePressure.com (http://guides.gamepressure.com/needforspeedmostwanted/guide.asp?ID=490)

====
i assume this is the first time you're playin NFS MW, if yes, then dont use Trainer 8), coz if you use trainer, by the time you complete half of storyline races, you'll become bored of this game.

[Quiz_Master]

Yeah VW golf GTi is good.

[shashank4u]

i ve seen a girl here at thinkdigit forum for a first time
anyways welcome to Thinkdigit forums

and i am Gallardo Fan..
about cops there are some tricks so you can get very high bounties..

the trick
find the busstation get over the buses adjsut your car position on the buses
thats it ..the cops get buried into themeselves crashing against each other..
give it a try ..

i ve given this trick long ago to someone at thinkdigit forums ..search the forum maybe you ll find the thread ..

goodluck

[Shalu_Sharma]

^^ But how do I get over the buses...???

Thanks s18000rpm for the MW guide...

[s18000rpm]

use the ramp from inside the Bus Station.
Bounty Increase
You can raise your bounty as much as you want and complete that part of your milestones. First get in a pursuit and then find a ledge (ex. on top of the buses at the bus station) go as closes to the end of the buses away from the up ramp as possible without falling off and without a cop following you up the ramp. Then sit there and watch the cops go crazy. It's better if your heat is 2 or up as the lower level cops will sometimes lose sight of you and you'll cool off. At higher levels though the police will hover below you ramming into each other and everything else. This destroys their vehicles which in turn raises you bounty and length of your pursuit. You can sit there as long as you like but check behind you periodically just to make sure one of them hasn't gotten smart enough to come up the ramp. The highest I've gotten off one pursuit is almost 6 million bounty.
