Who else thinks this about NASCAR Heat?

Although a great NASCAR game, I have a feeling that Heat will be remembered notsomuch as a NASCAR game but as one of the great expandable racing games. Already Betas of IRL and CART racing are out, with Le Mans and Dirt racing also being worked on. Perosnally, I enjoy NH as a NASCAR game, but I prefer N4 and now use NH for IRL and CART instead. -Pav

I'm planning on buying NH Heat solely for the purposes of running CART and IRL cars, and if someone comes out with a Le Mans version, so much the better! I'm waiting for the price to drop a bit, and hopefully that will coincide with the full release of the IRL and CART add-on's. I've got N1, N2, N3 and N4 and don't really need another NASCAR game, but with all the hard work of folks like John Bodin and Thomas Heineman it should be worth the added expense.

The way I see it, that's only a matter of time. -Pav "ymenard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Wj8C6.581005$[email hidden]... > >"John Pavlicek" <[email hidden]> wrote > > Although a great NASCAR game, I have a feeling that Heat will be > remembered > > notsomuch as a NASCAR game but as one of the great expandable racing > games. > > Already Betas of IRL and CART racing are out, with Le Mans and Dirtracing > > also being worked on. > > > I don't think we can qualify NH as "expandable" until somebody createsmore

Sean Stafford know how to import tracks into NH and can do it, except he was pissed about how some people weren't releasing tools, so he decided to convert NH tracks to SCGT first. Sears Point will soon be done for SCGT. After that, HOPEFULLY he'll put Sebring or something in NH, then my LeMAns Heat patch will be much more realistic :) Thanks, Alex ymenard <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Wj8C6.581005$[email hidden]... > >"John Pavlicek" <[email hidden]> wrote > > Although a great NASCAR game, I have a feeling that Heat will be > remembered > > notsomuch as a NASCAR game but as one of the great expandable racing > games. > > Already Betas of IRL and CART racing are out, with Le Mans and Dirtracing > > also being worked on. > > > I don't think we can qualify NH as "expandable" until somebody createsmore

FWIW, many people are being WAY too hard on Sean, and I think that some things are being blown WAY out of proportion. Sean has already been cooperating with Thomas and myself on the CART Heat and IRL Heat projects, and he was instrumental in helping us figure out how to get the AI to function properly on the road courses. These fixes won't be released until the final versions, unfortunately, due to the complexity involved, but the AI can and will eventually be competitve in ALL future mods for NASCAR Heat, and that would not be the case if it weren't for Sean's involvement. For that alone, the NASCAR Heat community already owes Sean as big a debt as anybody else who is working on the various mods and enhancements for Heat. -- JB On Sun, 15 Apr 2001 03:20:37 GMT, "Alex Kihurani" <[email hidden]> wrote:
