If N3 is released around middle of next year, they'll HAVE to dumb down
the AI
or the physics of the AI cars. A Nascar field with 12 cars isn't really
a lot
of fun...which is what you would have to use with GPL's settings.

That's no problem - all the physics for the right turns can go
immediately, so there's a 50% saving already... :-)

Cheers!

No, it just wouldn't have been much of a joke if I'd added that in.
You know the old saying, never let the truth stand in the way of a
good story!

Cheers!

The one thing i didnt like about n2 1999 is that in order to play network
play between
2 computers, you have to load n2 via dos mode instead of win95/98 mode. This
sucks
since you have to load the ipx drivers for the network cards and you know
how imcompatible 2+ different brands of network cards can be.
  I trick n2 into loading into dos mode thru window shortcut but now on 1
computer,
the steering wheel wont work in dos mode... argh

Hehe! John, in some states of the U.S. (warm climate) you would have
been beaten up for a sarcastic joke about Nascar... ;^)

Might want to change the subject line on these posts.  I've been following
this string for a week off and on, and it's always been about N2000.

Not trying to spit in anyone's lunch, just an observation.  :-)
