HELP: CART and Rendition 2100 (stealth II)

by Paul Godfre » Tue, 23 Dec 1997 04:00:00

How do I get rendition version of CART racing (Papyrus, old ICR2) to
work with Stealth II. I've tried the icr2_v2k.zip patch and renaming the
spd3d.uc file to spd3d.uc2, but no luck. HAS ANYONE BEEN ABLE TO GET
THIS TO WORK? I bought CART to replace my old non-rendition ICR2 to get
the rendition graphics, but I can;t get it to work. HELP PLEASE...

Paul,
 Use the indycar2.exe and the original uc...Lot more things you can do, but
this should at least get you into the game. And ...Run it in DOS.

1) Run it in a DOS re-boot.
2) Read the readme file.
3) Command lines for Rendition version are different  to the
non-Rendition version.

>The following has worked for me on the ICR2 Rendition version.
>1. Copy the patch files into ICR2 root dir.
>2. Edit the indysafe.bat file as follows.

>rem INDYSAFE.BAT - Runs IndyCar II Rendition in FIFO mode
>rem FIFO mode is slower than DMA mode, but works on almost all machines
>rem * Expects game executable INDYCAR.EXE in game directory
>rem * Currently expects 9/10/96 version of SPD3D.UC
>rem * ICR2's DOS4GW will not work if Quake's QDPMI is installed
>C:
>cd C:\ICR2
>rem set SPEEDY3D=C:\ICR2
>rem set SPEEDY3D_DMA=
>rem Only use this if your machine fails to recognize the correct amount of
>rem memory installed on your board.  Set it to the number of megabytes.
>rem set SPEEDY3D_MEMSIZE=4
>if exist INDYCAR2.DMP del INDYCAR2.DMP
>echo.
>echo INDYSAFE.BAT: Redirecting output to file 'INDYCAR2.DMP'
>echo.
>INDYCAR2 -gRN1f > INDYCAR2.DMP
>mode co80
>echo.
>echo INDYSAFE.BAT: Displaying file 'INDYCAR2.DMP':

>type INDYCAR2.DMP
>echo.
>3. Create a shortcut to run indysafe.bat from Windows95. (I have heard that
>the card will only initialize properly when the program is started from
>Windows.)

>You will have to do some file renaming  and further edits to the batch file
>since you have CART and not ICR2.
>Also there is a problem with the mirrors in spd3d.uc or spd3d.uc2. I can't
>remember which. I have both in the ICR2 root dir. Works fine. Frame rates
>about the same as with Rendition V1000 cards.
