gt3 problems

I actually quite like most of the songs in GT3 (Aisha
! I'm vibrating!!) especially the theme song by Feeder, one of Feeder's songs from the game was actually played on a UK radio station one morning (I got a brand new car...)

My only complaint would be how damn quite it is!! Don't get me wrong the car engine sounds are amazing, but i've had to resort to my MP3 collection on my PC for some endurance races, just to get that buzz u get from thrashing along with ur fav tune blaring out the stereo!! Blasting round to the theme tune would be great, but I have to stop driving just to hear the bloody tune!!

One last thing, on the home straight of SS11 has ne one else noticed the magical building? Look straight ahead and there is a black TVR building, visible all the way upto the start/finish line and which point it disappears then re-appears again

I believe that the 2D rims is an effect of the game engine. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed, but the game uses simpler models as the cars get further away. I have seen this in tons of PC racing games, but not too much on platforms. I'm guessing that the rims are 3D up close, and get simplified along with the rest of the car as the distance from the V-Camera increases.

Yes its called Level Of Detail (LOD) which will be appearing in many PC and PS2 games, Max Payne for example.
