New Drivers

There is a small software patch that allows you to maximise/calculate/perfect your view, and also somewhere a way to move your seat fore and aft, or up and down.
The end result is that you can get to see both mirrors fully, and have a "realistic" forward field of view.
Unfortunately I cannot recall where these are hidden, but I'm sure that someone will post the info. In the meantime, if you want to see both mirrors you can adjust your "field of view" angle by a few degrees within GEM?

I think you are describing the Head Movement Patch Clive. I've recently updated the first post in this thread to include advice about the Head Movement Patch and Nvidia GPU settings.

Yes, the Head movement patch 3.0 on Lee#s page - but be carefull with the Head movement, you get seasick... but to move your POV its perfect.

I think I will need it for the 55mod, as I have to run 2560x1440 to be able to see
and Cookie thinks my graphics card is being lazy, so I need to give it some work to do
in F2 and 67GP I can run 3440x1440, and I can see things fine.
It's less width, more height that is the problem for most cars.

I have been testing at a couple of tracks with F2, and 3440, and so far I have no CTD
I live in Hope. (which is in Derbyshire)

Happy Christmas everyone.

FYI...  Peter is well known to me and is a fine GPL pilot.  He'll be a credit to the league.

Welcome aboard, Peter!

Matt watch in 67season.ini if there is the track. I use it for all mods and drives.

Thanks FUlvio

I have sorted it. I have had trouble previously trying to install some things that the links on here point to
windows has blocked install to protect me, apparently....

Had tried several things but no effect. I was not able to install the "GPL65F1_Alternative__2.0.2"
so I installed the 2.0.1 (not aware it was .1) So I removed the .1 and turned off UAC with regedit
rebooted, and now I can install 2.0.2, and everything works. I have 5x 65 seasons now 
I am assuming the one called "65SEASON" is the one to use. So thanks for any words of encouragement

Can we replace the link for track gap freeze, as the link is not working, please?

[Cookie]

I put it in the "replay" folder - so get it at every race post

Thanks for spotting this, I'll fix it ASAP. In the interim Cookie has placed a copy in the Season 44 replays folder.
