N4 Minor Complaint and Kudos for patch

by Therron Thoma » Fri, 27 Apr 2001 14:15:13

First off let me say that I truely anjoy N4 and HEAT.

I want to give Papy a pat on the back for this patch.
Unlike so many companies, at least they put out a patch that addressed
90% of the problems with this sim.
I am very happy with the new AI behavior and the other items.

But leave it to me to try to***things up.

Here's how I revealed a flaw that will likely go unoticed
by 99.99999999% of you because it happened because I was
screwing around. Tried a short race a Darlington.
Smiling from ear to ear with the new behavior. Three laps out we go
yellow due to a little nudge I gave Hamilton. Since I am running in
20th and the race will likely end on yellow. I gun it to drive by all the
cars and check out the nice paint jobs I got from BHMS.
Next to last lap I pass Dale Jr and Martin...and the pace car.
Cross the finish line all the while being told to "LET EM BY!"
 I go to the pits about 20 seconds ahead of the pace car hitting turn three.
Change views to watch the pit behavior changes.

"WEEEEEHAAAA YOU WON!!" I hear in a loud red-neck crew chief tone.

Click out and what do I see?
The race finish screen showing ME as the winner??!?!?!?

Now granted this will likely never happen to anyone else in a million years.
I am
pretty sure that the willing could climb ladders left and right scoring like
this.

Papy? Anyone?

Other than this again I really like the patch and again thanks Papy for
great support.
