Hello Everyone
My name is Carl, and there is a heavy clue to my occupation in my name.
Have worked on the Microprose series of GP games, specifically GP3 and 4. I'm a 3D Graphics Artist of 15 years experience, with 10 years of engineering before that.....and it was pretty much my fault that your machines all ground to a hault when you first tried to run GP4s Monaco. (Those recomended minimum specs were a joke eh? lol)
I no longer work in the games industry, but I still make simulator content for "motorsport", the top World and US series of motorsport events, but I can't give too many specifics as I am sure you will understand.
I'm a refugee from the Autosport forums, from which I was banned this week over looking at the similarities between human rights abuses in China and Bahrain. Had been a member for some time, but as I don't really follow any particual teams or drivers, and I'm more interested in the cars and tracks, it is no great loss, this seemed a perfect place to get shipwrecked.
I've heard there is much less "fanboyism" here, which would suit me perfect as I have great respects for ANYONE who makes it to forumla 1....and I cant believe that one person can be a driving god, and the next man is a neandethal cave dweller who should not be near a car, as some fans try to say is the difference between their favorite and the guy who came in second.
Looking forward to reading, learning and sometimes contributing.
Cheers
