N2, 3dfx support :( - Well, if you have a Stealth II : MUST READ

by Ron » Thu, 25 Dec 1997 04:00:00

Just to add my disappointment also in the latest debacle involving the
much anticipated N2, 3dfx port & patch. Sounds like the kind folks at
3dfx did their part and now we are being jerked around by
Sierra/Papyrus. I think if we would just get better info on the delay
or problems they're having with this port it would make things more
tolerable but anticipating a much sought date of Dec. 22nd to only
hear the famous, "Early next year, blah blah blah" obviously insults
our intelligence and tells us absolutely nothing.

Anyhow, as I stated in the title of this thread, would like to pass
along just a bit of encouraging info regarding the Stealth II and N2
support in Dos. Found this info on the message board at:
http://www.racesimcentral.net/
not working in Dos with certain "Speedy3d" titles including N2. To sum
it up, here's my reply with the info to point you to this great little
conversion utility:

"Just tested this and can confirm that it indeed does allow Rendition
Nascar2 play in Dos with the Stealth II. Just go to
http://www.racesimcentral.net/~liaor and get V2DOSFIX. Txt file included with
instructions. Thanks to the original poster for pointing this util.
out and especially to the author, Royce Liao. Great work!"

Agreed. Not only are they failing to provide information, but they
promised specific information would be available on a specific date
and then didn't even provide that. No surprise that pisses a few
people off.
