I Can't Load Downloaded NASCAR Car Sets!!

by Buddy Morriso » Fri, 11 Aug 1995 04:00:00

I have downloaded several updated car sets for NASCAR but when I go to
the Car Sets menu and enter the new car set the game responds by telling
me that either there is an incomplete installation or I do not have
enough memory.  I have downloaded several sets from different places so I
don't believe it is a bug in the sets, but I also have a ton of
conventional memory and extended memory so I seriously doubt that it is a
memory problem.  Does anyone know how I can get around this problem??  If
you have any advice please respond or e-mail me.  Thanks.

Well, I've download a the IWCCCARS and haven't had any problems... Thanks, by
the way!  

BUT! I have download a carset once that just didn't work, didn't want to
work, and wasn't going to work.  It got deleted.  Oh well!  BTW, has anyone
released a new car set with the latest paint schemes for 95?  like the 37 of
Andretti in the purple scheme? How about that Silver Earnhardt car?  Or the
new Mark Martin paint scheme for 96 that they raced in Indy?  Or Bill's
Thunderbat?

Thanks!

I get this a lot at IWCCCARS, and it's almost always an incorrect
installation;  most often, people copy the new set into the wrong
directory, or over their CARS94 set (a BIG no-no) or something.  Check to
make sure that you installed the set as it specified wherever you FTPed it
from.

Well, IWCCCARS has had the purple Andretti machine since it came out.  I'm
considering doing a "promotional" set and detailing the Thunderbat, the
Silver Car, and the Valvoline 100th Anniversary Ford.  If interest is high
enough, I'll start work on those within the next couple of weeks.

These are fine, but I think the following updates are also important:

Current large font Genuine Draft rear bumper for Rusty
Pop-Tarts rear bumper for T. Labonte
reduce scale of #25 on sides, increase scale on roof for Schrader
add Spam can logos & correct number to Melling-style #9 for Speed
"Get Your Burger's Worth" rear bumper for Nemechek (if resolution allows)

Also, I'm VERY curious as to how you incorporated the scanned logos into the
pcx files.  I can't get Paintkit to read any pcx files I've attempted to
manipulate in Windows Paintbrush, Photoshop, or Dabbler.

Thanks,
Earl
