SVGA NASCAR?

I have a really, really dumb question. How do you tell if you're running SVGA or in low-res mode? The graphics I see are about the same as in Indycar: ugly jaggies and all. I ran UNIVESA, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Is there something else I need to do to get it to work? Or is it already working, and it's just not apparent? Mike.

To be in SVGA mode, you have to type nascar -h at the dos prompt. h is for high resolution. -- Rich "It is a far better thing I do than I have ever done before. It is a far better resting place I come to than I have ever known." -- Sydney Carton

Start NASCAR by typing nascar -h to load the SVGA version. Type nascar to load the VGA version.

The answer to that question is in the manual. You _DO_ have the manual which came with the game when you _BOUGHT_ it, right?

Yes, and thanks for the precise reference...
