Nothing to do with calibration, controller is calibrated and it doesn't happen with the SBK/stock/GP/Moto2/etc. It just feels different in all bikes from the WSBK 2017 set (love the WSBK 2017 bikes by the way, not hating, just trying to understand them more)

It is understandable that brakes will perform better at higher temps, but no matter how cold brakes are, if you pull the lever completely in, you should flip the bike at mid speeds. that's not  what happens with these bikes, it almost feels like if they have an assist turned on automatically. I actually went and checked my calibration and all assists turned off. Other bikes lock up the front under heavy braking this set does not. Was wondering if that was product of maybe ABS? But then again race bikes should not have ABS, so thought I'd ask you guys what was up with that?

Thanks for the quick response always. 

Guys, quick question, why do I pull in the brake all the way in and in some instances the rear comes off and in some it does not? like going at fast speed I can only touch the brakes and I do a flip, going at slow speed I can pull in the whole lever and it slows down smoothly no wheel lock up? it happens with all bikes in this set. There is no consistency.

Hi everyone, been playing the game for over a month now and this has turned into my fix when off the track.   

I'm very curious to know what is Piboso's vision for this game, does he want to keep it small and community oriented or any desire in taking it to a bigger scale op? In this day and age with what's been done so far, I can totally visualize a successful crowd source funding project.   

I see so much potential with this game. It is an amazing piece as it is, quite remarkable in fact when you consider this was the work of a single individual. But I'm sure we'd all agree that what we've seen could turn out to be just the base of a great simulator. (As far as I know, the game itself was developed by Piboso, although content has been expanded by the community, please correct me if wrong) I've noticed it's been In development for years, which brings me to ask if it will ever be a finished product. 

Also, Anyone knows what is the current user base? I've tried going online and the servers always show empty.   

Hawk, thanks for the reply mate!

I will try to make some video clips to explain it. It happens more notably with some bikes than others. Any recommendations on software to record and upload to Youtube? 

Also, passerBy, is that number at the top right the frames per second? how can I display that while playing?

Thanks!

Ok that fixed it. Downloaded it again and reinstalled the bike. Very fun little 600 indeed. A true sports version would be sick! We need more well made 600s in the game.

Thanks for the help guys!

Here are the screenshots, I have the beta 11b.  I've restarted the game, deleted the folder and decompressed it again.

Also, do any of you know why do many of the bike's rear end sinks to the ground?  Thanks for the help!

Guys, tried installing but does not show up with my other road bikes.  I went to see the folder structure and it all looks to be fine, yet it does not show up on the ROAD category.  Any clues?

Thanks in advance!

So I've been playing GP bikes for around a month already. Regular gamer, also a half dedicated track rider, I I'd like to think I have a good idea of how riding/racing should feel like. Understanding that GP bikes is a serious simulator and that the difficulty level and realism is elevated compared to anything else out there (love this by the way).

So on to my point: What the hell am I doing wrong? I always feel like the front end is overly wobbly, transitioning from one side to the other has to be done pussy footing around because it just feels weird, jumpy, not smooth, wants to tank slap. I'm not sure what it is but  it almost feels like the steering comes from the middle of the bike and not from the front. The front end feels reactive more so than a driving factor in making the bike steer (if that makes sense?).

In real life you cure a lot of the steering lightness and tankslapping tendencies by ways of a steering dampener, maybe it would be a good idea to introduce something similar into the game?


Also what is up with the bike sort of freezing when you accelerate hard on a straight while leaning from say left to right? you have to really let off the gas to be able to fully pick up the bike and swing it to the other side.  I can understand the gyro effect will definitely make the bike heavier to lean, but it actually is a smooth experience, not a freeze and snap? 

Having a lot of fun with the game, but it would be a lot more rewarding if this could be sorted. I'm bringing this up not to bash the game, but to understand why it does that and to help make it better.

This thing is a blast! I haven't raced online yet but this would be one of the first ones I'd like to try online. Thanks!

Guys, thanks a lot for the help. This thing is amazing. I have not been able to put it down for the past two days!

I will be uploading some videos to just for the record, in case someone would like to know how to run it on a mac and how well it runs.

Guys, thanks for your response!

I took the plunge, made some space on my HDD and I'm dual booting Windows 10. I'm now running GP Bikes in all its glory!  have been too busy getting my first clean lap in for half of the day!

Now I know there's a lot more to the game than what comes in the installation. I've been browsing around but can't find a place where to get everything setup (Bikes, tracks and everything else). Some threads point to files that are no longer available. Can you guys point me in the right direction?

Thanks again! 

Hello everyone,

Avid fan of the MotoGP and Ride series. Eager and excited to get my hands on the game and be part of the community.

My question is, how demanding is the game in terms of hardware? I currently own a 2015 macbook pro  with the following specs:

i7 2.8Ghz/16GB DDR3/AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2GB and SSD. not an ideal gaming setup, but do you think this would be enough to run it at a decent quality/frame rate?

Are any of you run it on a mac? I haven't played games in computers in more than 8 years, so I have little to gauge from. The reason for my question is that I would have to move a lot of things around to be able to install windows, so want to have a good idea before I decide to go through all the pain.

Thanks in advance! looking forward to racing with all of you!
