    I have only done a few races with the AI so far, but I actually thought they behaved really well even before the patch.
    Although it's really nice that they have stopped braking all the way through the corners, much better flow on them now! :)

    Sector 3 / Raceroom - I love you guys!

    Just had a quick blast in the GTR3 cars - LOVING the new liveries!! MarcVDS and Ecurie Ecosse cars - Having to point cameras at these cars regularly, I always apprieciate a great skin/remake!

    And the sounds!! Amazing.

    Can't wait til you release the extra content (Buzzing for GT3 cars round Macau)! :D :D

    Damn. The described workaround was tried three times during the session in which it was first implemented. It launched the game three times reliably. But after having had a cold reboot (with a several hours brake for kitchen work and eating), after rebooting the system the game again locked up - and this time the workaround did not function anymore, doing nothing. Its once again all messed up, locking up the system.

    There sits a solid amount of anger at my end of the wire.

    One really cannot praise the sound of this game enough, it just sounds amazing.

    A++++++
    Finally got some serious time tonight. Didnt have any issue getting into the game. I did a Cache refresh just in case and it did install flash before the first start. after that everything was perfect.
    - new menus and drop down experiences a huge improvement.
    - overall speed and feel of menus is really fast.
    - sounds are just nuts...in a really good way.
    - driveline improvements very noticeable - helps a lead foot like me out of corners.
    - not sure what it is but the braking sensations are much better - sound, feel and FFB
    of a lockup are much different but way better than before.
    - load time in SP and MP much quicker.
    A couple of quirks on the start line before a MP race - its like it places you on the grid really early and then after a minute goes through the grid as normal but all the other cars disappear - once you are in the cockpit before the start all is fine.

    Great work S3!!

    Maybe your timing is off?
    How do you start your task manager?
    You can do it really fast pressing Ctrl, Shift and Esc at the same time!

    Tried it today, wonderful sound, guys. Also, my old computer can hardly handle it (I did a race on Nurburgring with DTM '92 and I had to lower it down to 7 opponents because the CPU wasn't quick enough). Besides that, I haven't playet it so much because of the long loading times.

    I haven't checked the opponent number issue yet, but I'm happy to say that the game loads very quickly now, even on that computer. It could just as well be as quick as GTR2 or Race07. So I'm looking forward to shredding more tyres :D .

    There is no set date for release but is very close, will be for vrp's. Cars are well worth it, definitely will provide good racing.

    Thanks for the reply ;) The WTCC is my favorite series and it is worth it to pay any amount of vRP points ;)

    Why there is nothing in the changelog about new liveries (gtr1, gtr3, volvo 240)? Maybe is a mistake? It's better wait for liveries packs por bundles to buy it?

    Okay, found out why the game is freezing, but without the workaround, don't know how to solve it.

    It seems that if you start the game, it say's "Raceroom has already started" . You have to click okay to continue.
    Because of the taskmanager start, you can do this. Without, it blocks and you can not start it, it freezes, or not so much freeze, but nothing works anymore.
