Hi I constantly hear the call about yellow flags and spins but has not once seen any flags which sometimes has me thundering right into a pile up ( which was not caused by me ). Which graphic settings will allow flags to actually show up ?? I am using a TNT card. Thanks

I believe there are none. I would go with the yellow light on the wheel theory that someone else mentioned :-) -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com * Leong <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Hi > > I constantly hear the call about yellow flags > and spins but has not once seen any flags > which sometimes has me thundering right > into a pile up ( which was not caused by me ). > > > Which graphic settings will allow flags to > actually show up ?? > > > I am using a TNT card. > > Thanks > >

Soi guess that equals F1 a lot safer for flagers. Wow I never knew that. =)

I'm not 100% sure, only because I havent seen it yet. But, I don't think that there's actually yellow flags. There is supposed to be a yellow LED that lights up on your wheel, when you come into a caution area.

The new regulations for 2000 state that all cars have blue,yellow,and red lights on the dash or wheel.these lights are controlled by FIA officials only,this is mandatory for ALL cars this year,so no more arguments from drivers about not seeing the flags.So ISI did get this right! Dave K KP wrote:

The FIA still mandates corner workers during Formula 1 races. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.

I heard during the Melbourne GP that there have been a few problems getting the lights to work properly, and in Melbourne at least, only the red light was going to be used.
