ICR2 Car sets problem

4 posts by 3 people · 14 Aug 1996 - 20 Aug 1996

Hi, I am trying to use the car sets found at "The Pits" for ICR2. It does see them but as soon as I try to select one from the game, it tells me it is not a valid car set. It did work with one (CART95 I think), but the other 3 or 4 (F196_40, CART96,...) won't work. It is not a faulty download as I initially thought because I redid it and same results. Anybody has got an answer for me? Thanks a lot JFD

ICR2/CARS/F196_40/F196_40.DAT ICR2/CARS/CART96/CART96.DAT Besides you are missing the PPG96.DAT carset ;-) Which of course can be found at my web site: http://www.teleport.com/~mcarver/autosim.htm Sorry about that plug folks, but I haven't put in a good plug for awhile. -- **************************** Michael E.

also make sure that you downloaded either the US or European version according to where you live Mike Lewis >**************************** Michael E.

: also make sure that you downloaded either the US or European version : according to where you live Actually I think this only applies to NASCAR car sets. I am not aware of any difference between the various DOS/Win95 releases of ICR2. -- **************************** Michael E.
