Dear Brett,
I have a Monster II 3DFX Card with 12 MB of RAM.
I have a slight problem though with the Winston Cup 98
car set that I downloaded from Summer Brothers Racing.
I unzipped all of the files into the appropriate directory
(by the way I have the Nascar Racing 2 - 50th Anniversary set
which includes the Grand National Series Expansion Pack).
All works correctly with the regular version of Nascar 2, that
is the new cars show up, and all of the controls function properly.
However, now when I use the 3DFX Version (which ran flawlessly before)
the mouse will not respond properly (it's jerky, and will not go to
the bottom of the screen, only 2/3 down). I did replace the original
CAR.DAT file you provided to use the new sleeker designs. I also
do not have over 128 cars in the "CARS" directory.
I really want to be able to use the new 1998 Winston Cup cars
that they did an outstanding job on. However, I really
prefer the 3DFX Version of Nascar 2 for the outstanding graphics.
Any help or suggestions that anyone could offer would be greatly
appreciated! Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work!!!
