Nascar --> ICR2 Track Conversion Question

by Jo » Thu, 08 Feb 1996 04:00:00

Is there some reason the conversion program only supports a subset of
the Nascar tracks? I'm wondering if it can convert the Nascar
TrackPack tracks? Is there a track pack for ICR2?

Not really. SOme people have siad they can't convert the originals.
However, thats because they are running it from CD. IF you want to
convert a track fron NASCAR to ICR2 you need to install the NASCAR
track to your hard drive.

No problem.

The only track missing from ICR2 is Indy. Licensing problems have
prevented them from adding it. However, I wrote a small utility which
will convert the Indy 500 track from ICR1 to ICR2 using NAS2ICR.

Hopefully the relevant files needed will be on The Pits this
afternoon.

OR...just set the NCAR2ICR path to your CD-ROM drive (i.e., F:) and
the NASCAR path, like this:  F:\NASCAR

All that's missing when you try it without the CD-ROM is the .DAT
file, but if you give it the CD-ROM path everything works fine.
