Does anyone know where I can go to get something to make my N2 Car flip? If not do you know how to in the game?

Or he could just roll his monitor across the room. That would be the easiest way to flip the car. :) -- "To all you villans out there I say, knock off all that evil!" -The Tick The Rusty Wallace Miller Lite stock car, awsome when opened up! GO#2!

All right. To flip, in the middle of turns you can flip. Happens a lot at mrntsvll and watkins. probebly could happen at all the tracks. -- Sincerely, Mark Come And Visit My Very Own Page Of "SimGo"!!! With Cars, Setups, Utilities, And more to Come!

Speaking of smoother, can someone tell me how to do that? My framerate doesn't seem to be very high. Whenever I get more than 2 other cars near mine the game becomes jerky and I usually end up Spencering one of them. I have a P100, 32M RAM, my video 'card' came with the system and is on the motherboard. For some reason cyrix rings a bell. It has 1M RAM. I am running from WIN95. For race options I have SVGA, 13 cars ahead, 3 behind, with 39 cars racing, I have turned off all graphics except the car paintjobs and dirt/smoke. I'm really not willing to reduce these options further. Any help you can offer would be much appreciated. Thanks. AD

I used to have a P90 and basically ran the same setup as you. However, I may have gotten a slightly faster frame rate. If I am not mistaken the P100 has a slower bus speed than the P90, slowing down your graphics. You might (notice the might) gain a frame or 2 by running in DOS mode. Your first real option is to consider a better video card. But, if you have a cyrix chip a Rendition based card may actually make your control just as jerky, even if you do get a better frame rate. I usually ran with car textures at automatic and set the threshold to about 18. With this setup I was able to have car textures except on starts or in heavy traffic. -- **************************** Michael E.

<snip snip> "Whenever I get more than 2 other cars near mine the game becomes jerky and I usually end up Spencering one of them." <snip snip> LOL LOL LOL very good verb there Arthur! They should teach that in English class. "That guy didn't stop at the light and Spencered my a*s all over the intersection." -Bill
You are mistaken - it's the other way round. A P90 runs a PCI bus speed of 30MHz, a P100 one of 33MHz. For Intel processors, the relations are as follows: board speed PCI-bus speed board to CPU ratio P60 60 30 1 P75 50 25 1.5 P90 60 30 1.5 P100 66 33 1.5 P120 60 30 2 P133 66 33 2 P150 60 30 2.5 P166 66 33 2.5 P200 66 33 3 (Note that things like 3*66=200 are Intel's marketing arithmetics, not mine. Maybe they used an early Pentium processor for their calculations... :) The reason there never was an official P180 is that it would have been slower than a P166 because of the bus speed. It's also the reason why there is not so much of a difference between the performances of a P100 and a P120, (or P133 and P150), but a huge difference between a P120 and a P133, for instance. With Cyrix and AMD chips, you never know, because the names of the processors (p166+ etc.) do not reflect the actual frequency the chip is set to. ObRAS: Car sims need both a fast processor (for simulating physics) and a fast PCI bus (with resulting faster graphics.) Most often, however, the graphics part is the bottleneck. I made better experiences with a P100 than with a P120. To the person Michael responded to: If you can afford only one upgrade part, go for a decent graphics card. Check first whether the on-board graphics adapter can be disabled. -- Wolfgang Preiss \ E-mail copies of replies to this posting are welcome. \ (Not necessary if you're posting from Europe.) wopr"at"stud.uni-sb.de \ To reply by e-mail, remove the second ".de" \ from the address as found in the header.

Well, Maybe to the word spencered could be added gordening (to win or loose all), earnarding (to loose all), waltriping (to kept doing something even if not able), irvining (to mistake always) and to grissoming (to be very very very unlucky). Did you know that Irvin and Irvine are wreckers? Are they twins ;-) Thanks a lot, P.S.: I'm only trying to be funny Good race at the Brickyard, (Old'Indytrack guy in rec.autos.simulators) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ =ymenard now!!!
