I got my beta key a couple days ago, been playing a lot, not a bad game but it gets really old there is only like 8 tracks right now, hopefully there is more when it is fully released. I really don't like how everything is done on the website, sometimes pages won't open and stuff. My username on there is SealedGecko lol. (I know it's a shocker huh.)

you want 2? when you first get it get your monster truck then get out go somewhere else (but close to the track) and go to top there will be a bar and says simulator click it and there you go and next time put it in help and support

That only works in 0.38.xxx. To get multiple trucks in 0.37.xxx there has to be a truck shop on the map, which most of SM tracks do not have. You can add them using toolkit, it's really easy. (Don't ask me to help.)

also..a week ago i was able to get on the sm monster multipler servers...the first night i played by myself for about 30 min then fell asleep.when i work up another guy had come in.and tried chatting with me.ended up saying he was gona boot me..what i'm getting at is the past 2 days i am not seing the server when i hit update..has it been up..or somehow am i blocked from it???

if anyone can help me in more detailed fashion please hit me up on AIM at - JasFon426

I was the one who kicked you and I did it just in case if six people wanted to get in the server, all of them could. I also host the server, the reason you haven't been able to see it because I built a new computer and haven't got around to movie my files to this one. It should be up again within a day or two.

What do you mean it doesn't work? Does it work for other games? Do you have the correct drivers for it?

While I don't currently use it for RoR (that will probably change soon) http://www.amazon.co...7933819&sr=1-18

That wheel looks so familiar. Didn't that one used to come with MTM2?

That is a power overload lol. No mouse drag was used.

Try completely redownloading the pack, which might help, try clearing and regening your cache first.

If your going to make a topic posting on the matter please do so correctly, it was NOT an attack on megaupload, it was a take-down by the FBI like they've done to numerous sites in the past that host illegal content such as music, movies and games. I highly doubt it has anything to do with PIPA and/or SOPA because it is nothing new unless you've been living in a cave for the last 5 years. I don't really see how it will affect us either since you can (and should) upload your file directly to the site and I wouldn't be shocked if there are more to come.

Even look at LimeWire, you can't even download the software for it anymore. Only website I know of but it's a good example lol.

But where would one find the area to change your avatar? I cant seem to locate it under my settings =S And my avatar has been reverted to one of my older ones without me doing so.

I don't think there is a way anymore.

the only thing i see wrong is the steering wheel isnt put on straight so it looks like hes turning when he isnt......the V4 pack looking good

The wheels are turned, looked at the left one.

Well, I would suggest the AMD to save money, but you've already shot that idea down for the quad core intel. But anyways, the card's really good even by it's self..for the price, I was reading reviews and benchmarks on it, and it out performed cards that were more expensive and "faster"

I am thinking about an AMD processor, I've switched back and forth like 5 times lol. I will look into that video card.

EDIT: That does look like a nice computer, does it come together because that would be a plus because I'm a dumba**.

dude, if your spending this much money already, just go SLI on the vid cards..so 6 months later your not nice ladying bout upgrading. SLI has helped me out massively in everygame I play, rendering videos etc.. The cards the LF recommended are badass cards, take a look at mine that I suggested earlier in the post, that's what I run both 1gb cards SLI..they run really quiet, and don't get hot.

I have around $1000 dollars to spend and 2 of those you suggest would add like $80 and I'm already $60 over budget.

Yes.

Alright I just wanted to make sure.

Can a SSD be installed later? I don't currently have the money to buy one but I might later.

back when monster jam was good. NOSTALGIA!!!!!!!!!!!

This is nostalgia.

Three kids in the crowd at the beginning waving the Grave Digger flags are me and two of my nephews. I am the one on the right lol.

I think I'm going to stay with the i5. I decided to switch GPU's to this one: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16814102948 Only like $10 dollars more for it and it comes with DiRT 3 for free.

Edit: I'm also switching to this PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371050

First and maybe it's just me but I think you'd be better off ordering it all from the same place and not multiple sources.

Seems decent, make sure your power supply is adequate (Newegg has a calculator for it) the other thing is do you have anything in your current PC you can keep/use with the new build (HDD, OS, CD drive).

100% IMO but if you have parts you can keep from your current PC then you can take your price down or set more into something else.

Also, when Mr.Liquidfire sees this can we get a Computer Tech section added as a sub-category/forum such as under the PC Gaming section?

It's a tower build only not complete system. but for a good mouse for gaming you'll likely be looking in the $20+ range.

I had everything on newegg but i transferred some to tiger direct because I don't have to pay taxes on tiger direct. Made build cost go from $1150 to $1030.

I was planning on keeping my current computer usable. I have a spare monitor and stuff.

Over All looks like you have a great build, just some of my tips/hints if you wanna try em out good, if not I understand, Its about $70 difference without the SSD.

PSU looks nice but in some reviews it says it has short wires, others say long. I'll look into that one.

The ram looks well made, I like it because its faster lol. I'll look into that too.

What exactly does a SSD do? Because I have no clue lol.

Only getting the anti static thing because I don't wanna fry something on my first build lol.

Well I am building myself a gaming computer and I was wondering if this was a good setup.

Case ($70)

PSU ($90)

Mobo ($115)

CPU ($225)

CPU Cooler ($30)

GPU ($175)

RAM ($47)

HDD ($80)

Optical Drive ($19)

OS ($100)

Thermal Compound ($13)

Anti-Static Wrist Strap ($5)

Shipping ($21)

Tax ($36)

Total = $1026

Which is awesome.

Do you see any problems with this setup?

Or the transferring losses files during the transfer.

I got it....

and HOLY CRAP IT IS EPIC, vintage f1 cars are absolutely insane, graphics are unbelievable, they basically took the best racing sim (rf1) and made it the greatest racing sim that will come out for a while and will definitely give the middle finger to iRacing once some mods start coming out for it

I sat there for 5 minutes waiting for a video lololol, hopefully when I get my new computer I can get RF2.

Floaty Floaty.

it wouldnt hurt to check best buy too. i personally dont like buying ready to run computers online beacuse of they way packages get handled during shiping

I don't think I'm going to get that one anyway, planning on building my own.

Also I'm not trying to hijack this thread just answering stuff lol.
