ToCA Race Driver 3 'Tier32'

[KaneUK]

Hey everyone,

I have finally reached the end of ToCA Race Driver 3 World Tour upto Tier 32!! I've completed EVERY World Tour challenge and finished first in Tiers 1 to 31

If I attempt to qualify for any of the races in Tier32, I am finding myself starting last on the grid. My opponents also appear to have superior cars. This is especially noticeable down long straights! Has anyone beaten this game legitimately? If so please tell us how you completed ToCA 3!

Many thanks!

Could be the copy protection kicking in in an unexpected and nasty way? Try with the original DVD, for a test. (No, I'm not kidding. There's a similar nasty trick in Motorhead, a relatively old arcade racer...!)

Daemon Tools simply bypasses the copy protection, it shouldn't (and I can't see why) it would interfere with the game itself. Bearing in mind I've completed all other World Tour championships, it seems to me Codemasters have raised the difficulty level to maximum.

I think as well as a pit strategy, maybe tweaking the car will be necessary to give me a chance of qualifying in a decent position.

That's it!
Codemasters has its own special protection called F.A.D.E.! Codemasters itself describes it as a protection that fades the quality of the game when it is started by image or crack. This usually means that the game shouldn't run stable and fatal bugs should appear. The newest version of FADE includes an unbeatable difficulty level.
So use ur original
