Unfortunately, from what I have seen in the demo, it looks like absolute
tosh!

It appears to be using the same engine as Nascar Racing 2, which was very
good AT THE TIME, and sure there are new cars and tracks, but the game
itself, and even the layout of the whole system, looks just like it did
before.

This isn't to say it's a bad game, and who knows, I might even end up buying
it (although I doubt it will be for quite a while), I'm just very
disapointed, in that, when compared with games like Grand Prix Legends, it
really doesn't seem to have any power behind it.

Never mind, at least I have Nascar 3 to look forward to. :-)

I really feel that N1999 was a "keep em' busy, we need development
funds" release :(

It's ok.  It just should have never been.

Hey, can someone re-post those instructions for editing the ini file to
make it work better with V2 12MB cards?

Thanks!

I believe it allocated more memory to the game from the card.

Thanks!

|Here is what someone posted earlier:

|Well the problem is now solved on my system. Thanks to some good
|advise, I made an adjustment to the nr1999.ini file. Added the
|following lines at the bottom for "3dfx specific preferences":
|
|N2FXAA      2
|N2FXLOAD=0X200000
|
|These setting are for my 8mb Voodoo2 card. Higher mb cards will
|probably allow you to increase the 2nd number.

Also, fog can be added with the following variables:

SET N2FXFOG=0.005
SET N2FXFOGCOLOR=0xa8a8a8

which originally were used in N2 with the 3dfx beta patch.
