My understanding is that the version of ICRII for DOS on the new
w95/dos package is 1.01; the patch out for old (1.00) DOS ICRII takes
it to 1.02. What is the difference between 1.01 and 1.02? How can
folks with the new 1.01 patch it to 1.02?
thanks,
jeff

You can find the short-patch 1.01 to 1.02 at Sierra's ftp site (their
web link is broken at the moment).

From the readme file with the 1.01->1.02 patch the major changes seem to
be with the mouse conflicting with the joystick input and a "minor" fix
to the yellow flag bug. It also supposedly fixes the
"traction-weight/shift" bug. But, I am under the impression this was
taken care of in the 1.01 patch.
Also of note is the fact that the instructions for the 1.01->1.02 patch
are OVERKILL. There is no need to do a complete hard drive install. As
far as I can tell the only files being patched that are not installed
via a partial install are: OBJS.DAT & ROL.DAT. It then should be
possible to simply copy these files from the CD-ROM into their
perspective directories on the Hard Drive and then run the patch.
OBJS.DAT goes in the ICR2\OBJS directory and ROL.DAT goes in the
ICR2\ROL directory.
