Does anybody have any idea why my car dissapears for a few seconds when going down the "corkscrew" at Laguna Seca only? Any similar experiences? Thanks in advance, Mike

I think Papyrus has been secretly working with the Romulans to develop the first gasoline-powered cloaking device.

Papyrus fessed up at the start but I don't know the progress of a fix (if any).

I believe that in the readme there is a mention of the car disappearing momentarily in the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca when using the overhead ARCADE views. Erick J. Davis

Any similar experiences? > Thanks in advance, i've noticed the same thing (in both arcade modes) the only thing that saves me is that the computer always keeps the car in the center of the screen so all i do at the corkscrew is keep the road's center in the center of the screen until my car reappears. what's your method for this? 1/21/96

MW> Does anybody have any idea why my car dissapears for a few seconds MW> when going down the "corkscrew" at Laguna Seca only? Any similar MW> experiences? I was going to ask this too. I remember odd mentions of this from ICR but assumed such a "bug" would have gone. What's so complex about the corkscrew for replays, arcade views, etc? And why do the skid-marks at the top of the hill lie about 30 cms above the road? Does significant elevation changes upset the 3D graphics system?

It's a known problem - I guess you didn't read the README.TXT supplied with ICR2? <G> Steve.

Disappearing in an ICR is simple, flying with it is easier (also possible with ICR2!) ----------------------------------------- - This message was brought to you by - - - "Kik Na, Da Leg Un Kla" -----------------------------------------

Well, here is what I found in my North America version of the readme.txt: ***** Laguna Seca Arcade Views ***** When driving Laguna Seca in the Arcade Views, your car will temporarily disappear when going through the corkscrew turn. This will not occur if you drive from the***pit view. -- **************************** Michael E.
