Hi folks, a couple of questions/comments (=3) 1) Bristol with full field is absolutely crazy! Great! 2) The AI at Martinsville seems to be not functioning: at least quickrace doesn't seem to work. Any advice? 3) N4 seems to freeze every now and then? Needs resetting of Windows? Any advice? Thanks in advance. Arto
Martinsville is being worked on by Papyrus. Dunno when the patch will be out though... I had the freeze problem in W2K Pro a couple of times, but never in WinME. I've upgraded to a new setup, so it may not be OS related... On 16 Mar 2001 21:25:55 GMT, [email hidden] (Arto Wikla) wrote:

Unbelievable but that really helped! I really could race after that change! And I managed well (with the 70% AI, though... ;-) until I happened to make too many mistakes... ;-/ Many thanks, indeed! >good luck grasshopper.... With my limited English I guess that was something positive? :) (I do know the insect, but I do not get the idea here: perhaps driving the mini-ovals is called "grasshopping" in USA?) Arto
Its a shame when a perfectly good grasshopper comment goes w/out understanding. -- Brian Grrrr baby, very grrrrr "Arto Wikla" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wikla.984790201@kanasaari... > "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> writes: > > > Pull out that NVIDIA vid card and put a REAL video > >part in there.....hahaha(don't let Tom P see this...) > > I did not get that!?

He is clinging to the last threads of his Glide card. Pretty soon, he will have no choice but to purchase an NVidia based card. So right now, his hobby appears to be trashing NVidia based cards....as his Voodoo card will no longer be supported and will be put into a museum shortly. I think that is happening right now as we speak!!! <G>

Most people would not know what Dave was referring to. It is a saying from an old liberal Martial Arts sort of TV show called " Kung Fu". -pw

How do you spell, "Full Screen, 4x4 LOD Anti-Aliasing.....with no ("no" as in "zero") performance hit?" "GF 3" Dave....does it look "greener on the other side" now? TP lol
