Hi all, Does anyone know whether there's a way of convincing the floppy-installed version of Nascar to play in -h (high res) mode ? I don't quite see why people without CDROM drives should be punished for it... Thanks. -- Paul Smyth, Dept of Medical BioPhysics, University of Manchester. Telephone: +44 (0161) 275 5157

That is why NASCAR -H doesn't work with the floppy version. Rick Genter Technical Lead, IndyCar Racing II/NASCAR Racing for Macintosh/Windows Papyrus Design Group, Inc.

Hi Paul, Sorry but there's no possible way of achieving this, simply because the data for the high definition graphics isn't stored on the floppy disks (if it were, the NASCAR package would be on around 10 disks I would guess) - there are separate VGA and SVGA track files and car files, so you can see it quickly adds up. I think *** might offer a cheap floppy > CD exchange deal if you were interested in doing that. If they don't, try Papyrus themselves. Regards, Mike.
