All: I would like to suggest somthing: How about Papyrus/Sierra and Pynosis team up and make the BEST Racing Sim out in the Market. With the combonation of the Papyrus Cars/Tracks, and the Pynosis Car Damage sun Glare and flips etc... They would be able to make the BEST Racing Sim out on the Market. This is JUST a suggestion and I would like to HEAR EVERYONE'S reply and Comments to this! THANKS, Tom Wardell [link lost in import]

Flipping cars is a waste of rendering time and does not enhance the simulation in any way (IMHO). /===================================================\ | John Simmons (Redneck Techno-Biker) | | http://www2.connectnet.com/users/jms/index.html | \===================================================/

I didn't just mean FLIPS! That is ONE of the LAST thing on my list of things needed in the NASCAR Sim! Tom Wardell http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/2171

says... My comment is,"Good god I had to reinstall my newsreader and forgot to add your name to my kill file". It had been so nice to read this newsgroup and not have to read you posts after the noise you made here a few months back. So bye bye Tom!!!!!

>I didn't just mean FLIPS! That is ONE of the LAST thing on my list of >things needed in the NASCAR Sim! >Tom Wardell What the dope means is that, PSYGNOSIS with Destruction Derby 1 and 2, has perfected the way the car is damaged. I think that is one main problem in Nascar, the damage seems unrealistic. Also, in those games, the car physics seem exact, and the cars even look a bit realer. I'm not talking down to Papyrus, heavens no <g>, but i'm just making a suggestion. --Keith http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/2172

It is ironic that Psygnosis' most recent development, Formula One for the playstation, has virtually no crash simulation at all. It seems Psygnosis decided to stick to car physics while driving, not crashing. But it is definitely true that they know how to make cars crash- DD2 proves it. | I'm not talking down to Papyrus, heavens no <g>, but i'm just making a | suggestion. Hey, I think Psygnosis' new Formula One for playstation and the new NASCAR for playstation by Papyrus (sort of a hybrid of the old NASCAR with a little NASCAR2 added) stand as the two best auto sims out at the moment, at least on that platform. But they are apples and oranges when compared to each other. I hope NASCAR2, which looks amazing, comes out for playstation relatively soon- now that I use the playstation, I find it hard to go back to my 486dx4-100mhz, and even harder to spend $3000 for a new computer! Playstation was only $200!
realer???????????

Why not upgrade you PC to a P166 for $345.00? It's a far cry from $3000. -- Lannie Schafroth

How do you figure $345? It's more than the CPU... KS

If the pentium you get is PCI and you've got VLB video or something, those cards won't work.... theres more to be considered than simply the CPU. bill -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Papyrus Indycar Racing - It's not just a simulation. -- ------------------------------ Bill Pogue Deep In The Heart Of The South
