I downloaded a car named (budice.pcx) and put it in the "cars" directory
of N2.I also d/l cars in the *.car  format and put them in the "cars"
directory .The *.car format show up in the game ,but the *.pcx cars
don't.Can I just change the .pcx to .car  or what?
                             thanks

You need to place the PCX files in your main Nascar2 folder (not in the
cars sub-folder) and rename them to match the driver you want to import
them for.  This name is composed of an X, followed by the drivers first
initial, then an underscore, and then the first 5 letters of the last
name.  For The Player, the PCX needs to be named Xt_playe.pcx.

The *.pcx files need to be imported via the paintshop in order for the
game to use them.

(Nettiquette 101:  Since many different sims are discussed in this
newsgroup, it would be extremely helpful to include the name of the
product in your subject heading.  For example: N2 import help?  This
would indicated that you are seeking assistance with NASCAR Racing 2.
Since there is a lot of traffic in this group, many people will just
pass over posts that do no specifically relate to topics they are
interested in.  NOTE:  This is not specificially pointed at you but to
all reader/posters of r.a.s.  Do no take it personally.)

*.pcx files must be placed in the main directory for paintshop to find
them.  Then the *.pcx files need to be imported via the paintshop in
order for the game to use them.
