N4:Patch available

by Colin Harri » Mon, 03 Sep 2001 01:47:00

www.sierra.de have a new, European-only patch for N4, upgrading to version
1.3.1.4, making it incompatible with the old 1.1.0.0 version. The question
is - is it compatible with the US version? And is there a US version of the
same patch coming?

I get so confused!

A beta version of the International patch was sent to the European
Sierra divisions so that they could QA the installer, however there
seems to have been some miscommunication as they have posted it for
download.  The final patch will be available for download for both the
US and International versions when it is ready.  I'd suggest you refrain
from using the beta 1.3.1.4 patch, as most likely the final patch will
not be compatible with this interim beta version which will force you to
do a fresh install of the game before being able to apply the final
patch.

Any word on a new CART sim from you guys?
We've been forced to make our own CART sim now from F1 CS 2000, and now F1
20001.......

Have you tried the CART beta patch for F1 CS 2000?

I agree that he overdoes it.  But why do you hate CART?

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you

IIRC, this is not the first time the German Sierra office have screwed
things up by releasing beta-versions of patches etc.

Mainly because I'm tired of seeing it posted everywhere like this.

Oh, and the fact that they really stink as a racing organization, ie Texas.

I thought so too some time ago, but now the guy just astounds me with
his persistence :) Even the papy folks start to wonder when he is not
shouting for a sim badly needed...

Texas could be handled better, but according to american hero Michael
Andretti the g-force problem could not be forseen, and his story about
Franchitti walking about in the pits without finding his own pit box
because of vertigo is a bit scary.

But do look forward to the European races, there's a new aero package
wich will reduce the turbulence behind the cars and give more
downforce. So finally we will see a proper race.

  I couldn't agree more with your statement.  I too do NOT want to see any
CART crap.  I would prefer a quality CART product.  (yes I am being bad)  :)
