'free (=user designed) tracks available' would be a good argument for
buying Papyrus simulators, right?

Do they really develope the tracks on a PC? I don't think so...

This would be quite helpful.

True for me too!!!

Agreed, look what some have done with the PaintKit program that comes
with NASCAR Racing. I personally don't have the time to paint a bunch
of cars to look like the real things, but somebody did! And what
a wonderful job they did too! Kudos...

First, I am not and idiot. Second, my first post stated why I
wanted a creator/editor. Third, playing DOOM makes me nauseous and it
sucks; Heretic is much better. Lastly, I never suggested boycotting
Papyrus. I just had it in my .sig file that I was leading the charge.
I do have a Sega but I never play it any more, but I do not have
an Amiga. And when I want to, I play "smash 'em up" without a figure 8.
Ok Ralf, get out your Harbrace.

The statement/arguement was bogus... You want a track editor? I suggest ROAD &
TRACKS Grand Prix Unlimited. Of course the whole game completely sucked. But,
you have to put up with that if you want a track editor.
