Where's the Car??

by Matt Neil » Fri, 20 Dec 1996 04:00:00

I just downloaded a couple of cars. I unzipped them to the N2 cars dir.
Went I went to the driver info screen I could not find one of the cars.
every cars I downloaded is there but #97 Chad Little. I know the cars go
in order from the car numbers, Chad is #97. But when I scroll down to
the car list, it stops and #96, The player. (I made a car to race
instead of using the player.) Chad should be right after that, but he's
know were to be seen. I checked the Cars dir. in N2 and he is in that.
Could anyone please tell me were he might of gone off to.
THANKS!!

 The car should be in the left column,you have to add this new car
to the active drivers list yourself.

Do a directory and make sure you have a .CAR file in the CARS directory
with the appropriate name. Also, you are limited to 128 cars maximum in the
CARS directory (though I doubt this is a problem for many people).

N2 can only show 74 cars on the left.  The cars are still there, but
you'll have to use some creative means by which to get to them.  Try
this:

1) Create a new list (let's say WC97), and then place your own car as
   the first one (or one you would like to be in).

2) From the selection at left, choose enough of the cars until the #97
   shows, and then delete any of the unwanted cars from the right.

Some reason, the list only shows around 70 - 75 cars. I ened up deleteing
the fake cars. Its no big deal

You can only have so many cars in the cars directory. And only 70 some
odd cars show up on the left and some are not shown. I wish they'd fix
that and increase the limit of cars in a list.
