When I start multiplayer I get a message that my game version needs to be updated. But I have the latest patch so when I let the game search for an update he can't find any. When I click to continue anyway I can access a race, I can even see other cars racing for a few seconds but then I get a message: your install has been corrupted, you've been ejected. What is going on here? Everything else works fine, it's just multiplayer. I'm playing with WON. Do I need to re-install it? (not a thing I'm very keen of because most of the game is patched and customised)

are you sure you have the latest patch. They are up to 1202 last I heard. dave henrie Tim Vanhee wrote:

I just jumped out of my new reader and headed over to WON. No problems for me. My N3 is unpatched at all. Last I knew there was no patch, other than the beta.

How can I see what patch I have? I played online for the last time friday. All worked well. sunday it didn't work anymore. What's the URL for the latest patch? Is it the one with improved AI, 3d tires, etc... because that's the one I've dowloaded last week. I think it's the latest. Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> schreef in berichtnieuws [email hidden]...

(friday) It sounds like you dont have the latest patch. To check if you have 1202, go to the Papyrus\Nascar3 folder and right click the Nascar Racing 3.exe file and choose properties > version Go here for the latest patch: http://www.sierra.com/sierrasports/forums/motor/nr3beta/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Skotty Flynn skotty20 on Won Nascar-Racing-Sims.Com: http://www.nascar-racing-sims.com The Ultimate Sim Racing Directory: http://www.nascar-racing-sims.com/directory/

Just wondering if having other tracks will cause this problem I had the same problem with the patch -- |^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ || | D U P O N T |_| ||'""|""\___,_ | __.. ||__|__|_| _ll | ([""(@)'(@)"""""**|(@)(@)*****|(@): Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > are you sure you have the latest patch.
