After a year and a half of n4/n2002 I am thinking about vernturing on-line for some multiplayer racing. On several of my tracks I have adjusted some of the AI values in the track.ini file. For instance I bumped the AI qualifying speeds at daytona down a bit. Do I need to restore the orginal values in the track.ini for the AI values to race on-line? Can I simply comment out the modified values or does the file need to be indentical to the server version both in settings and comments? Brian Brian Oster

If you join a server online and you have modified your track.ini file for the venue the server is hosting, the server will change you INI to match its own before letting you into the race. I think that is how it is still done, unless the server is set to max security (3 maybe?) then it may refuse to let you in...
Unless you've turned off the restrictor plate at the superspeedways, you don't need to modify anything. When you connect to a server, the tech inspector will let you know if it is restoring any values (the changes are not permenant - that is, it will not overwrite your .ini files).
