Shiny new PC is now up and running with a copy of GT Legends....

Wow, what a game! Only at the stage of hooning Minis and Cortinas about at the moment but great fun.

A few questions though;

DO the interiors look really dark as standard or is that my monitor? I can see the dials but no detail at all?

Can you take screenshots from inside the game?

Any particular tracks that the PH lot use for multiplayer? Just so I can hone the skills if you have a favourite track/car etc.

See you online once I have had some practice!

Join us online any time!

You can take screenshots using a program like FRAPS (www.fraps.com/)
It's free to use just for the screenshots etc.. but only saves them as .BMP so you would have to convert manually to JPEG
The best bit is you can take multiple shots. Otherwise you are limited to just one if you use the PruintScreen button on your keyboard.

You could try increasing brightness of your screen, but couldn't really tell you without seeing your game running.. plus I rarely use Cockpit-mode.

And no, we just pick any random track.. when we host our own games we usually have a vote as to which track we run on.

F12 takes a screen shot in jpeg format without having to mess with fraps.

Fun isn't it!

Thanks.

Tried brightning up the monitor - does not really work. I think this old thing is failing...

How do I join you online then? I had trouble getting GPL to work online - I hope this time it proves easier!

Never knew that Dobbo... Oh well :P

You can join us online by just going to the 'MultiPlayer' section of the game..

Use the online key on the back of your handbook to setup a Username and Password etc..
Then if we are online we will usually have a chatroom online, which will be called PistonHeads and will be somewhere around the top right of the screen. The password for all our online things is: PHLeague

You need to get the caps in the right place.. case sensitive.
Sometimes we might be in a game already, but you can see where we are as the game name will be listed next to our usernames...

All a bit complicated sounding but will be a lot clearer when you get into the Multiplayer bit...

Dave.
