I can't find Dale's #3 car in the Nascar game. Did Papyrus forget to program him? If so, is there a way I can get him? I tried to paint it my self, but I'm not much of an artist. Any help on this matter would be appericiated.

My guess is that any beer/tobacco cars are not in the game for legal reasons, and the others like #3 are missing because they wanted too much money in licensing. cj

Check FTP.WEBCOM.COM for a rendering of DE's car and most of the '95 NASCAR paint jobs. It's called IWCCCARS and it's in the pub/zyllyx/iwcc/updates directory. -- IWCC: http://www.webcom.com/~zyllyx/welcome.html MM#6/JA#07/RM#1/DW#17

Organization: IQuest Network Services X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.91.6 Take a closer look at those graphics -- It says something about Ford Motorsports or something. The colours are right but the words are wrong.

>Uh, Rusty Wallace is there...complete with the Miller sponsorship.... Not in the default NASCAR Racing car set. You'll notice that his sponsorship is Ford Motorsport (just like on his die-cast). The only way to get the tobacco and *** sponsors, as well as Earnhardt and other missing drivers is to either paint them yourself or get the IWCCCARS.ZIP file from FTP.WEBCOM.COM (pub/zyllyx/iwcc/updates, for anyone who wants to know). -- IWCC: [link lost in import: /~zyllyx/welcome.html] MM#6/JA#07/RM#1/DW#17

-------- That's simply awesome. I wonder what it would take to require licensing rights for using my license plate number in race games or movies. Should we, as members of a litagious society, keep a careful eye out for such b***abuse of our personal identities, and attempt to capitalize? Mike.

I stand corrected. I took a quick look at the cars and saw something that wasn't there. I did get the iwcc cars - wow! Great! Thanx! -Steve -- The opinions expressed above are those of the author and not SPSS, Inc. ---NASCAR-#7-#28-#51--- Steve Adams "Space-age ***nomad" Fax: (312) 329-3558

I think it was probably a licensing problem. Did you get a load of the license disclaimer at the end of the credits? They did, however, mention him in the test version that was reviewed in CGW...
