% I have just raced for the 1st time on the 'net'. However,
% the opponents cars disappear, even when close, and then
% reappear again. Do I need to turn down the res or detail
% level?
% I have a PII 450 with 256 Ram, and a 56k connection, playing
% at 1024x768 (2xMonster 3dfx II cards)
The disappearing cars are usually caused by the player's connection that
is disappearing. Their latency connection to the host is too high and
when the host doesn't get a response for a long time, it simply blanks
the car. If your latency count is low (below 400), you should be fine.
and changing your detail level won't help the players with high
latencies.
