Theres always Mono and from what I see is a pretty good port of .NET to other OS's. Though from what I understand Mono isn't a perfect port just yet.

If you run a Intel based Mac though then you can just use BootCamp and run Windows. Free (yes you must buy a version of Windows though) and VERY easy to use.

I see the USB adapter on their website, but don't see how you actually purchase it.

I wondered the same thing when I wanted to pull the trigger on this simulator a few months ago (wayyy worth it!!). When I signed up for the full game I believe I got a free month for ordering the usb with my purchase. It got to me in the US in 1 week. Keep in mind that they ship on Friday only, I of course ordered on a Saturday so I had to wait another week for it to ship lol. So order on or before Friday and you can get it in about a week.

Will an Intel graphics card work. If not, can you post a link or publish the video cards that do work.

Which intel graphics card? They have a few different models!

Min system requirements
- Windows XP SP2
- .Net framework 2.0
- Hyperthreaded Intel CPU, AMD Athlon 64 CPU
- 256 MB Pixel Shader 2.0 graphics adapter
- 2 GB system RAM
- 2 GB free hard disk space
- Soundblaster compatible soundcard
- DSL internet connection (512kbit/s)
- VRC USB adapter or controller (optional)

If you can play Half-Life 2, you can run VRC Pro. You may have to turn down some settings, but it should be OK.



I'm trying to get 3dMark06 onto the computer that I run the game on....I'll let you know what kind of scores I get, and that should be a decent starting point. Then you can install it on your computer too and see how it compares before shelling out for a better video card.

Heh, I tested and helped with design suggestions. The Physics were very good, the graphics were fairly basic, but that was a tradeoff for the 4 Wheel physics model, so the coders kept saying anyway
