Computer Sim Project Cars (caterham)

[KiwiBirkin]

A small 3 lap race in 720p from the race car simulation Project Cars which I have just got. The latest alpha build has nearly finished the Caterham R500 physics and made it such a fun car to drive on the track, with the force feedback on my wheel the car feels very much like my Seven replica does on a track now and behave's quite similar. The AI in the game still find it hard to drive the cars and are a very much a work in progress but never the less fun to race as you will see just before the first corner If your interested in computer racing sims this is well worth checking out.

Click the video to go to you tube and watch a larger screen version (well worth it in 720p)

I meant to add some in game screen shots to show how good the cars look in game as the video has lost a lot of quality.

 

Some of these are very large

Looks good. I just had a quick look, (at work) but I'm interested in giving this game a try. I still play GT5 every week, and could always use some more simulated seat time.

 

I joined the forum on my phone, and see the different packages that can be purchased, but I did not see a system requirements page. I sold my soul to Apple long ago, and hate the idea of running a flakey bootcamp.

 

Before I purchase a tool pack, Is WMDCars available for the Mac?

Aww. That's too bad. I'm glad that you got back to me so quickly before I purchased a tool pack I couldn't use. Thanks.

 

I guess I'll have to build a computer to use this Sim. Many good programs often don't run on Mac. A flight Sim I used to use for RC helicopters, and Iracing both seem to omit the compatibility with Mac. That's a shame too, since the Mac has a good amount of horsepower to run these programs, and seems to be gaining on market share.

Jackal if I didn't play computer games and needed a new PC I would certainly be getting a Mac now, after using one while on holiday I was very impressed by the Lion OS. But I play a lot of computer games rangining from sims to FPS so a Windows based PC is a requirement for me.
