With the announcement on the Blackhole Motorsports page (www.bhmotorsports.com) that Papyrus has joined forces with Project Wildfire, my question is, what do you guys think is the most significant thing that they bring to the Papy team? This combination has me confused.
Gee, that is a shock LOL "Joe Blow" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:bncKc.1384$ml.1135@lakeread05...

Probably artwork and 3d modelling, under Sierra a lot of Papy's artwork and 3d modelling was outsourced to a firm in Russia I think. "Joe Blow" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:bncKc.1384$ml.1135@lakeread05...

One thing that is 'kinda' disconcerting...they have both been Oval Centric these past few years. I'd like to see them break out of that pattern if possible. dh

Their updates to Mosport and Riverside were stunning and the built-from-scratch Trois Rivieres is probably the best non-Papy track in the sim.
A agree, but AFTER they release NR2005 or NR2006 or whatever it might be. They had a LOT of changes ready to go in that never made it because of the screwups at Sierra or Vivendi or whoever screwed it all up. Personally, now that they own the code again, I'd LOVE to see them release those changes in a 1.x update to what we have to tide us over until their next masterpiece is ready. -Larry "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I would be happy if they would just fix the road course RF tire temp bug. The rest of the code is pretty damn good already, but I'm tired of having to work around that temperature problem at every new track. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:cfaMc.8572$_K2.4495@lakeread02...
