I was using a Voodoo 2 when I installed NASCAR Heat and IRL Heat. I
overcame the "white cars" problem in IRL Heat by renaming "paint.res" to
"paint256.res". Since then, I've installed a TNT 2. I tried renaming
"paint256.res' back to "paint.res' and got the white cars again. I put
it back and all is well which leads me to believe both NASCAR Heat and
IRL Heat are still using the Voodoo 2 which is still installed. I want
to keep it for Red Baron 3D. How can I tell the Heat games to use the
TNT 2? Anybody know?

If memory serves me right, and I am getting old, at least t feels like
it the day after you get in bed a 4 am, anyhow, somewhere in the
properties for your V2 there should be a checkbox for "use V2 card for
D3D" or something like that, if you unchkeck that it should only run
glide stuff....
Sorry for being so vague, but it *has* been a while :-)

a good way to leave it set in the current configuration. However it didn't
cure the "white car" problem in IRL Heat, so I guess I'm still looking for a
setting in NASCAR/IRL Heat. Hints appreciated.

memory, not the type. The TNT2 card should use the paint256.res not
paint.res sionce it only has 16 meg of memory. I belive you need a min of 32
for the game to use the paint.res
