Just a new circuit, eg:- Monza! nothing else, you need the original
demo to run the circuit.

Is the Monza track in the demo the new version Papyrus made, or is it the
old one?  From what I heard Papy redid Monza for the full version.

Later,
John

It's redone..
Looks "painted" like F1RS.. as opposed to flat "photographic" feel of the
Glen.
Looks very good, but "different".. will take some getting used to.

Well, that's mainly because Papyrus Design Group has some new artists
working for them.

I like more the painted approach... even if I liked the pastel green/blue
colors that it was before.

I liked the old dressing up at start/finishline,
there were lots of Ferrarisigns and flags, also
the adboards are changed, Pepsi is now Coke.
I would like to see the screenshot of the multiplayer race,
last one of the serie, where John crosses start/finish,
but it seemed removed from the Apexsite, or it just won't d/ld.

Take a look at what happens to the trees in Watkins Glen if you watch a
replay from the gearbox (i.e. looking backwards). They are really just
billboards. Same goes for spectators.
Also, if you come close and go slowly, spectators retain the 'blurred' look
that they have - and should have - when you see them from a fast going car.
But as long as you race along the track at normal speeds, looking forward,
everything looks great.

I have a SoundBlaster awe64 and when I turn up the sounds to 16 they run
great on the Monza track. However in order to get them to work right on the
Glen I have to turn them down to 8. Anyone else experience this?
