I just got a Reactor card with the Rendition compiled ICR 2. It mentions the 4 bit vs 8 bit car sets and says the 8 bit ones are the better ones (which makes sense) but then says that the paint kit doesn't work with the 4 bit ones. Doesn't the paint kit work with the old style car sets (old style = non Rendition)? What is the usual car set bit depth (as in the ones floating around on the net)? Mark Ferris

Some subset of 8-bit (the non-Rendition game is an 8-bit game; some of those 256 colors are available for painting cars) ---Jim Sokoloff, Papyrus

The paintkit creates and edits 8-bit sets...if you were to try and alter the 4-bit set (and saved), you would in fact be saving it as an 8-bit set, thus eliminating the 4-bit one... If you can run the 8-bit set (indyfast.bat), just delete the 4-bit one...it's taking-up space. Best Regards, Marc Marc J. Nelson Sim Racing News - USA http://members.aol.com/simracing
