Yes, we'll pick the slowest car in the sim and race that. illepall

Just like the S2 release, we'll all jump in the fastest car and promptly crash it, then crash it again, and crash it a few more times. That's what I'm planning to do anyway

definitly the slowest is the best , close racing etc ;]

I'm in too - i'm one of the nobrainers who preordered an unreviewed product

Greets!:eclipsee_

And then You will be wandering around in doom mode , and wait till your pit crew gets your car repaired

and oh there will be ventrilo server available.

We have a teamspeak server people are welcome to use. At the moment it's passworded, but I can get that changed for a day or two (although it will still have a password to keep the lame teamspeak bandits out).

cool! i've got both ts and ventrilo, but we really should decide on one of them though.

I also have Ventrilo, but I don't like it And I don't have a Ventrilo server, I only have it for playing with my South African buddies

So long as the demo runs (which I can't imagine it won't seeing as I actually have the recommended specs for the first time ever ) I hope to be there, maybe just posting an IP and password (or server name if it has to go through a lobby like LFS) and just leaving the server running much like an LFS public server, I think trying to run league style races will probably be too frustrating when we don't know the cars/tracks.

You won't, because the demo has no multiplayer

Dan,

I think he means if the demo runs he buy it and be online in a matter of seconds.

Kunos posted saying if you can run v0.99 Namie then you can run nK pro.

Keiran

I went to pre-order nK Pro but I can't see where to click to buy it, guess I might be too late to pre-order.

Yeah Preorder special price expired April, 3rd http://www.netkar-pro.com/eng/home.html so you have to wait 2moro

Well I think he means it will at least be compatible with any machine that could run Namie - say in the way some games now won't run with older cards, my gf ti4200 for example. But it won't necessarily run with great FPS on older machines. I'm expecting to struggle.

Don't worry about specs... http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?p=2948791#post2948791

Perfomance with the following configuration:
AMD 2600 XP (2Ghz)
1GB RAM DDR
ATI 9600 Pro 128

At 1280x1024, without anisotropic filtering and Anti Aliasing (which are not of great use anyway as the image quality is always high), in Trackday mode (only one car on the track), with all details at maximum, you get approx. 50/55 fps and never below 45. In doom mode you get 70 fps. Testing multiplayer with 4 more persons (5 cars in total including my own) you stay always over 40 fps, mantaining the smoothness also during race start. And this is without LOD's, that means that all cars were being drawn at maximum detail independant of the distance

And Kunos has said that the minimum requirements are actually recommended specs as he don't want screw players. There's also a rumour that the official screenshots have been taken with that 'minimum' specs machine.

Will server details be posted in this thread or by pm?

Is it 6 minutes to midnight in Italy?

Any indication of whether it's coming out in the early hours of the morning?

I was hoping for a 12:01am release... Guess that didn't happen :P Man I wanna try this thing out!

Some guys speculated (or said that Kunos had said :shrug late Monday evening release (European time).

I thought the original release date was April 11th anyway?

I don't know but only official date I've heard is 10th.

ps. Get ready and install .NET 2.0 Framework from Microsoft as nK Pro requires it (because of interface system).

i am thinking they are waiting untill the whole USA and rest of the world get to 10th of april before release....

dont want some people getting their hands on it on the 9th now do wee

Midday GMT is the only time the whole world is on the same day, so maybe it will be released then (Evening 10th is what I heard too).

i'm a bit surprised the server hasn't been released tbh ... oh well

edit: oh, we're in #netkarpro on gamesurge
