The brake pedal has inexplicably been coded to behave exactly like a handbrake, so even the slightest steering input while braking for a corner will send you into an instant and unrecoverable snap spin. Simply lift off the gas to enact the auto-braking feature, and the car will slow down sufficiently for almost every corner in the game. Hint: If you find yourself getting into trouble after entering a corner too fast, you can avoid disaster by hitting the Pit Speed Limiter, which you can map to a convenient button on your joystick or wheel beforehand. This will slam you down to 75 mph in a heartbeat without upsetting the car in any way. (Just remember to turn it off again immediately.) Hint: The car-setup options are a bit of a joke, but down-force settings and gear ratios do affect your straight-line speed and should be adjusted appropriately. Most of the other options are nothing more than sugar pills, because you can easily set lap records on a wet track with slicks. And the brake-bias settings are redundant in a game in which employing the brakes is a recipe for disaster. Hint: Even with the Rules Enforcement option turned on, you can still get away with shortcutting many of the chicanes at most tracks. Keep experimenting to determine how far off the track your car can go without incurring a "shortcut" penalty. This is the only way to keep pace with the AI cars on most of the tracks at the higher difficulty settings. Other Formula One '99 cheats hints faqs solutions: |
