Thanks

That chrome color is the third from the left on the top row. However some depends on your gfx too, on lower spec cards rims won't look shiny. And also rims DO NOT shiny very well inside a garage, on the streets they do.

Ps. That particular guy has some weird filter problems with his card (very pixelated road surface).

Probably he's playing on 800 X 600.

He can't be... the picture size is defaulted to 1024x768... right-click and properties to check

Nah, that's simply chrome. I get the same chromed rims ingame, and like vellu said, chrome paint is the third from the left on the top row, maybe it won't look like chrome in the garage, but it looks like chrome ingame.

That it does. It's a reflection thing...in garage there's nothing to reflect so the rims look kinda dark. But on the streets there are light sources and the surrounding environment which reflect of the rims making the look the way the do (like in the picture above). In this case though they look extra shiny, could be contrast enhanced...

As far as that pixel road issue goes I remember having something similar the very first time I ran the game. Only the roads looked like crap (like in the picture). I updated the game (at that time to 1.1) and the problem went away for me.

Oh I haven't noticed the pixel road! I get that road almost every time I open the game, and then I max out all the display details, close the game, re-open it and readjust the display options. That WILL repair it.

Could be your gfx then, what card do you have?

mohsan1988 · Post by **mohsan1988** » 25 May 2005, 14:02

Ok, vellu's right, either you got an old card/ a screwed card or you've turned your brightness all the way down on your monitor and turned down your contrast to.

Go to your desktop, right click and then click on Properties. Then on top, click on Settings on the upper-right.

Here is it

Ah, integrated graphics on the mobo. Most likely will not shine no matter what settings you use (i'm kinda surprised it's fast enough to even run the game).

Killerz · Post by **Killerz** » 26 May 2005, 14:03

It won't have problem run a game bcoz i got p4 2.8 ghz processor and 1gb ram

Dragster · Post by **Dragster** » 26 May 2005, 14:27

Yes, but you have an integrated graphic unit, it's on your motherboard, and in most cases, those gfx units are weak. No amount of ram or cpu can replace a gfx card.

oh well,this is what Dellâ„¢ capable of(giving lousy gfx card)
