1. Anyone heard a peep out of their Spotter? Not me. None. Sound is all
the way up. It's like he's not there. I can hear the Crew Chief but not a
single word out of the spotter. I ran a few online races and everyone else
said the same. No spotter!
2. VOIP doesn't seem to work.
3. Can you turn off the "Eject on Crash" nonsense?
4. Any way to adjust the Gamma? I just installed a new GeForce 6800GT and
it works great, but it's darker than my old 9800 Pro. I'm sure I can adjust
the overall in the GeForce drivers, but I prefer to adjust this in-game.
That'll do for now :)

Missing spotter and other NSR settings questions
Larry asked why NSR's spotter was silent, why VOIP did not work and whether the 'eject on crash' option could be turned off. Others said the spotter only spoke during race sessions and was very quiet, though some never heard it at all. Settings fixes in the player .plr and .ctl files were pointed out.

No spotter here either (with demo).

I can hear the spotter, at least I think I do. I hear two different voices
on lap times. If the last lap was my best, then I believe it's the crew
chief that comes on and says something about it being the best lap yet. If
it's slower, then a different voice simply reports the time.

Don't know about this one
Sure am disappointed in EA for not providing detailed documentation, either
as a readme.txt or .pdf file. Sure looks like they rushed this to get it
out before real Daytona race. Hopefully it's something they're working on
as part of the patch.

Larry, somewhere in your Player_name.plr file, it is just like the papy
files we adjusted, your looking for the line that says something about AI
control... do a text search...
Im betting it is the same as the demo that is...

There is no spotter though. What you are hearing is your Crew Chief and
maybe an announcer.
No car low, high, etc... Not a peep.

Needs to be louder though. What do you have the spotter voice set to in
sound options?

High.
I just did an offline race and heard the spotter too (though the volume is
way too low).
I think the spotter only works during RACE and no other sessions. That was
the first actual race session I had run.

What about the Framerate indicator disappearing Larry? Still having that
issue? I noticed mine did it last night. Not sure if it is something I
did or not thought because I was chatting while driving.

Could it possibly be disabling features when the CPU load goes up?
I'm just guessing as I don't have NSR yet.

The spotter works ONLY during the actual race- not in any of the practice
sessions. I have no idea for the reason for this- it makes nom sense to me.
The same is true for the waving pitboard/ pit box indicator. Who knows?
No, I figured out that it isn't persistent like it is in NR2003. You have
to turn it back on if you leave the track or race (not sure which yet.
Haven't been paying attention).

The spotter would be the wrong feature to disable anyway, unless it's your

There's all kind of chatter about cars entering/leaving the pits, etc... but
ZERO instances of "Car High/Car Low".

It works fine here. I have a Hercules GTXP and 5.1 speakers and the spotter
comes in loud and clear from the center speaker. I haven't been able to find
any 3D sound options that might help others yet.
