ICR2 Car sets problem

by Jean-Francois De Rudd » Thu, 15 Aug 1996 04:00:00

Hi,

I am trying to use the car sets found at "The Pits" for ICR2. It does
see them
but as soon as I try to select one from the game, it tells me it is
not a
valid car set. It did work with one (CART95 I think), but the other 3
or 4
(F196_40, CART96,...) won't work. It is not a faulty download as I
initially
thought because I redid it and same results. Anybody has got an answer
for me?
Thanks a lot
JFD

Make sure that the directory name for the new carsets matches the name
of the carset (minus the .dat extension).

ICR2/CARS/F196_40/F196_40.DAT
ICR2/CARS/CART96/CART96.DAT

Besides you are missing the PPG96.DAT carset ;-) Which of course can be
found at my web site:  http://www.teleport.com/~mcarver/autosim.htm

Sorry about that plug folks, but I haven't put in a good plug for
awhile.

according to where you live

Actually I think this only applies to NASCAR car sets.  I am not aware
of any difference between the various DOS/Win95 releases of ICR2.
