Anyone with intimate knowledge know when NRO is going public?

Nascar 3 will be on the shelves before they ever begin NRO on Ten!

Perfect or not, let's get it on!

Kirk:

I think you got it.  NASCAR 3 and NRO.  What has been the
problem all along.  NASCAR 2 is a DOS program and we need
WINDOWS 95 version for NRO/TEN.  The reason i believe that
PAPYRUS has stopped work on NASCAR 2, as per, adam L, is
they must be busting ***trying to get NASCAR 3/NRO out
the door..  Who really knows????

I think they are realizing its not going to work over the net....!!! Its
a dial-in or nothing like hawaii...!! If you cant run more than three or
so on kali (and thats with good pings!) How are we going to run 39!!!
Just my thoughts.

I agree it probably is not going to work over the net, but comparing to
Kali
is not quite proper.

Kali's limitation is that the host of the race is PROBABLY running via a
modem.
There is a bandwidth problem as well as latency.

In NRO it will just be latency.

Currently in modem racing the packets are transfered 15 times a second.
I don't think the internet will be able to provide the same kind of
performance.

To maintain 15 packets per second, your pings would have to be stable in
the 130 range.  I don't see this working for too many people.

My pings to www.ten.net (right now) are in the 300 range, and I am using
Concentric as an ISP, 28,800 USR Sportster, P-166 computer, Win95 O/S.

I have a Nascar 2 icon on the desktop. Just click and its running. Same for
Nascar 1 and IRC2 also.

People.. I think we need to work on our logical thinking process.

Nascar2 IS a DOS program.  It runs in a dos box under windows.
Do we NEED a win95 version.. I don't think so..

Just because you have an icon on your desktop doesn't make it
a Windows program.

And finally "brilliantly"...  If you only knew how much CPU
horsepower you losing up by running under Win95.

Don, what we probably would want is a way to access the TEN
servers while staying out of win95.

That could be a solution.  But for all of us bird brains that bought
off the shelf computers, or win95 modems, that wont work.  My modem
just wont work in dos at the typical settings dos multiplayer games
want, i.e. com 1-4 with Irq's lower than 7.  I had to borrow a friends
modem for the short period I played on Hawaii.  (Until my phone bills
got to high and the wife pulled the plug).

This is beginning to sound like another one of those "I don't believe
Papyrus really is working on a patch!" threads...

Come on!

Like really this is productive.............start an argument with the
most influential man in history with respenct to NASCAR hacking
issues.......about whether or not N2 is a DOS app.

He wasn't arguing that if it was a Win95 or DOS app.  Instead he pointed
out that N2 runs fine for most people through Win95, which is all you need
to play on TEN.

If you re-read his post, you will notice he said it runs fine under
Windows95.  This means in a DOS window.  His statement was to prove that
Nascar2 will easily run within Window 95.  (DOS window)
