The Copy Protection bug leads to massive returns, sierra cronies don't want to take the blame, so they tell the boss that: "See, those damned GPL physics are just too hard, and people aren't buying. We gave them 2 titles including a NASCAR game that should have sold..." So then the boss tells papy to tone it down, and so we end up going back to the old Indycar 1 physics model. sheesh I hope not! We'll be driving GPL forever!

I think you're assuming that most people are haveing a problem when in fact it is probably a small fraction that are having this problem. I believe they are working on it and hopefully will be able to solve the problem. -- Mike Grandy Precision Racing www.precision-racing.com "Kai Fuller" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Pyph6.15882$[email hidden]... > The Copy Protection bug leads to massive returns, sierra cronies don't want > to take the blame, so they tell the boss that: > > "See, those damned GPL physics are just too hard, and people aren't buying. > We gave them 2 titles including a NASCAR game that should have sold..." > > So then the boss tells papy to tone it down, and so we end up going back to > the old Indycar 1 physics model. > > sheesh I hope not!

A distinct possibility if the suits running Sierra are as out of touch as they sometimes seem to be!! Marc.

Well, the fact that they put it in there in the first place tells you how out of touch they are :( -Larry "Marc Collins" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:XFxh6.220841$[email hidden]...
