My only complain to this game is the absence of the hood camera angle. Bumper camera is too low, you can't see a shit from the drivers seat and 3rd person camera is too "arcade" kind.
These 2 stages were fucken hard in advanced mode. Took like 45 minutes to get it right. If only i knew S5 and S6 were easy i would've settled for 4th or 5th in S1 and S2. All in an effort to avoid UK and blind driving there lol.
OH, great game, I arranged the championship on local network in august of 2009 (between F1 rfactor seasons, he-he :), was cool. But the game has some lags with on-line =( Freez during the race, didn't know, how fixed its.
@topografer i dont think so. They know us Americans don't care for rally. They have to add X games style gameplay to market in the US. I would love it I ordered CM 05 for my old Xbox, its gonna be new to me
By far the best Colin McRae game to date. I have it for my Xbox but I had noooo idea this was on PC. I'm getting two of these cards(XFX Radeon 5770). Will and does it run on Vista 64bit without problems? What did you use to record this?
@ChronoDog Okay :) I have the same, without occlusions. (How do I enable them? Well, i don't think i'm using it anyway, my HD4830 can't handle occlusions that good .
You also should try ENB Series! I'm uploading a vid with ENB Series soon, it has effects like motion blur and bloom.
Yah, your CPU would bottleneck the performance, aka not be able to throughput enough data and "starve" the videocard, resulting in the performance being affected only by the CPU.
Not the best example I could come up with, but it's kind of like putting a really powerful engine in your car, but limiting it to only the first 3 gears :P
I drove this stage not long ago with this car on Advanced... freakin' hard one, no matter how hard you're hittin' that "Go Button", you're just a sec behind :D
> The downside is, obviously, that rendering any recent game at, suppose, 1920x1200 with 4xSSAA, means practically rendering the game at 7680x4800, which results in pretty crappy performance - hence why this feature is only useful on older games :)
Another is that the whole image looks dimmed, and out of focus akin to what digital imagers do as opposed to olden film cameras. I likes the modern ones better, when they work.
The downscaling algorithm actually makes it look sharper than the same image rendered at the same resolution, while being smooth in motion at the same time :)

@steafun67 Regedit -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Codemasters\Colin McRae Rally 04 -> Change the "Height" and "Width" values accordingly :)
It's gonna reset once you change the resolution in-game though.

Codemasters really should do a game like this only with new graphics/sound and driving physics. Wouldn't be an instant succes??

Dude forget HD resolution if you squeeze the bitrate down to handheld rates before uploading to YouTube

It's google's recompression problem, first of all it doesn't work normally with anything the least bit above the "Main" profile.
Secondly, even though I uploaded the video at a really high quality (8k bitrate), it re-compressed it to this.
Found no way to bypass re-compression yet, tried a plethora of settings already.
ChronoDog 2 years ago
Hmm what container formats did you try?
79Yamato 2 years ago
MP4, MKV, MOV, AVI, FLV
Googled my ass off trying to find a way not to trigger re-compression, but even with perfectly matched bitrate it still digests it :(

ubergamer19 2 years ago

It's basically like a Radeon 4870, minus all the heat and power draw.
Wich means Crysis @ 1920x1200 full detail @ 45 fps.
