Nascar 4, is it out?

Hey everyone, Dave Molloy here. You might remember me from all the N2 cars I painted at Simulator Cyberworld and SimSpeed. I just got a 700mhz computer to replace my old 133mhz and am looking at N3 and N4. Can anyone tell me if N4 is ready or where I mught find a demo to download? Thanks.

Yeah, the demo's available at www.papy.com "David T. Molloy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Hey everyone, Dave Molloy here.

> Whaddya wanna bet this don't happen? > > Dave Casey Since the closest to the sim industry I get is CompUSA, I have no inside knowledge. But N4 debuting in time for Daytona is about as much a lead pipe cinch as they get. They are using 2000 for a season so licensing issues should have all been taken care of long ago. Multiplay was debugged thanks to the efforts of the N3 team. AI uses the smarts from GPL so the blocked track wiggle should be gone, the Tracks are all done...the cars are generic so thats no problem...there may be minor hardware issues.. like the Soundblaster sound problem that was noticed in the demo, but that has been addressed and corrected(according to Papy's Eric Busch) so...since time consuming things like Dynamic Weather aren't included, what would be the hold up??? dave henrie

What video card will I need? I have an Intel 82810 ver 4.12.01.2604 My audio card is a SoundMax Integrated Digital Audio card My computer has a Microsoft Gameport Joystick, but I want to get a new steering wheel and pedal arrangment. Any suggestions out there? Thanks! Dave "David T. Molloy" wrote: > Hey everyone, Dave Molloy here. You might remember me from all the N2 > cars I painted at Simulator Cyberworld and SimSpeed.

That and Papyrus has been suprisingly good at hitting their target dates, which are normally late fall, but I'd bet this date was put down because they knew they had a good shot at making it. Can hope anyway... ;-) -John On Mon, 15 Jan 2001 07:31:45 GMT, "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote:

According to papy, get a card with as much memory as you can afford (textures are larger than previous versions of the sim), and the sim will use T&L. This tells me that any GeForce card will be adequate. However, if you're in the market for a new card, and are willing to spend some money, wait until march when the NV-20 based cards are released.
