i can run the GPLea cars... most of the time
the ferrari causes some screen/sys freezes at times but the
eagle&honda and Bruce Johnson's Brabham are fine - THANKS ALL!

but when i try Micha's Lotus i get 'can't load track'

would you guess this is more likely a video card or sys preformance
issue?

video is voodoo4
sys is p3-500 with 256MB ram

thanks for you input

i would say its a bad mip file in the lotus.
your vid car seems fine for your processor

[Here's the solution, pasted from Vroc-F2 mailing list -- rms]
FYI I have just discovered the .dat of the 2D Helmet version of the
MichaLotus from the FredFaster site contains 16bit arms. Extract the .dat
with DooDat and replace with 4bit. FYI a 4bit arms.mip is 11k, a 16bit
arms.mip is considerably larger at something like 47k I think.

Regards
