Ok i another Qs for you lot in RAS if you dont mind, first off me and
a buddy did some N3 lan play of our own tonight to get used to setting
it up and finding the server and stuff, right we didnt use any custom
cars this time in N3 like we were going too as we thought we would
pick a car from the list supplied. Ok so first off i picked a car
from the list called f99_101 and went on to the game my mate picked
f99_102 and joined too, now the promblem was once we were in the game
there was 2 cars with the number 101 & 2 with 102  with cars of both
numbers haveing the same paint jobs ???, the only way we could pick a
car that would be diffrent was to pick the the cars t_play2 & t_play .
Now when we get the 16 guys at the network session playing and they
start picking from cars f99_101 to f99_117 are we going to end up with
doubled up numberd cars like we had with just the 2 off us.

I thought If we picked another AI drivers car in M/P we would end up
in his car as if we had kicked him out of the driveing seat. Also we
have decided to not put any custom cars in our first try at a lan race
either as i figure it should make one less hassel to be without :).

Thanks Hotdog

It actually may be easier to use custom cars. N3 will use its default multi
list and it doesn't care about having redundant cars. If you distribute all
of your custom cars to all 16 of your racing buds, and everyone signs in to
multiplayer with their correct car file name, you should be all set.

Let me know if you have any further questions...

Sorry Alex this has confused me more than ever, really we dont want to
stsrt using custom cars sets just yet, not untill we know how well the
game plays.
