Hi, I would like to know if there is any cheats (hidden cars or tracks) in Spirit of Speed 1937. Also, is there a way of changing the screen res by editing a file? The only choice in the game menu are 512x384 (ugly) and 800x600. I would like to try 640x480. thanks

This won't be of any help to you, but with 4x4 antialiasing turned on with my GeForce256 card, SoS looks pretty good at 800 x 600 resolution on my system. FWIW, there's a VERY good thread about SoS on the High Gear forums: http://forums.simracingnews.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=9&t=000316 This thread talks about a small utility called "CTFJ!" that allows you to adjust your joystick or wheel dead zone, and it REALLY makes a difference with SoS. I've been playing with the demo a LOT this weekend, and I ordered the full version on Friday. This game may not be the tops when it comes to vehicle simulation, but as a nice little historic racin simulation, it does seem like it can be a lot of fun. I'll report back when I have the full version, but I think I'm going to be spending a bit of time with this. It won't improve my GPLRank or my F1CS2K Rank any, but it seems like it may offer the same kind of fun that I found in NFSPU, which sounds like a good thing to me. -- JB F1CS2K Rank Handicap 57.790 http://f1cs2krank.dhs.org/ On Thu, 08 Mar 2001 00:44:34 GMT, [email hidden] (Richard marchand) wrote:

With the new 1930 era cars it would be a blast. > Sorry the Geneva Convention prohibts us from 'cruel and unusual' >torture.
