Re: another NAscar Heat Bug

Rewind to before the accident, then forward through the accident. Same thing was in N3 and N2, but it's only a bug when it's in NH?

When you damage your car in a crash, and watch the replay, the damage is not visible. So the replay does not show any damage. I remember a similar bug in Grandprix Legends where the shifting in the cockpit view was not visible in replay. I still like the game, but i am waiting for a AI patch (other cars never crash), and a damage patch (you hardly see any damage after a crash). My favourite track in Nascar Heat is Watkins Glenn. I really like this 'street'circuit and hope there will be more tracks available soon ( maybe track editor?) R.Denessen

In one of my beat the heat challenges I was supposed to keep Dale Earnhardt behind me and finish at least 3rd. It was either at Daytona or Talladega. He got by me, but spun out going into the trioval! (No I didn't push him) I was able to win because the gracious AI made a mistake in my favor. :o) ~daxe

Snot really a bug unless you like going in slow motion through accident replays... the wrong way... -- Tim, [email hidden]|[email hidden] http://legends.sports-gaming.com/forums.shtml FREE forums for your league... http://legends.sports-gaming.com Sim racing website loosely based on gpl...

I haven't really had enough time with NH yet to agree or disagree with your statement. Most of my races have been 20-30 laps. But I definitely CAN say that there are many many times that I or other drivers have spun into a wall (sometimes with cars flipping!) and yet no yellow flag comes out. This just is not right...

I'm going to go wayyyyyy out on a limb here and guess that a yellow flag PROBABLY didn't come out... More than any other potential "fix" for NH, I desperately want to see a fix to cause yellows to come out way more often. As it stands, I basically have to drive the wrong way on the track to cause a MASSIVE accident (involving 5-10 cars) before I ever see a yellow. I know some of you might consider driving around half the race under caution is quite boring, but it would be much more realistic and also allow for better racing, since the field tends to get quite spread after many green laps. Please MGI/Hasbrow/Ed Martin... I'm begging you! :o) n article <[email hidden]>, [email hidden] wrote: > On Sun, 27 Aug 2000 22:01:48 +0200, "RD" <[email hidden]> wrote: > > > > >I still like the game, but i am waiting for a AI patch (other carsnever

Ummm Tim, he didn't say anything about N3 or N2. I consider that a bug in all of them. High priority fix?? No. Bug?? Yes.

Run a Season at say 50% race length and watch how many yellows you get. Not saying it is perfect, but yellows do happen in longer races than say 3%. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8ogcne$4f5$[email hidden]...
