Hi my fellow racers,
I like everybody installed the patch yesterday (thanks to some people
here in r.a.s who make me HAPPY!HAPPY!). In the readme10.txt file it
says that 39 players are now allowed in multi. I was wondering if there
will be a difference betwenn NRO and 39players on Kali. I know from my
experience that with 4 or more players (on a 28.8modem) it's starting to
be slow on Kali. 39 players should be awful. If people here try to
race a 39player on Kali, please post here how was it. I would not spend
my money for Ten (NRO) if Kali with 39players is fast. I don't think
that Kali is faster than NRO but for only 20$ it's cheap. Thanks a lot,
Good race at the Brickyard, (Old'Indytrack guy in rec.autos.simulators)

Let's see. Kali used the IPX networking included with N2. This is
limited to 8 players. The changes you discuss may have to do with the
computer cars used for 2 player and IPX races, and probably will also be
used for NROS.

total cars in multiplayer (including AI cars) to be same as in single
player.
Aside from that, you'd need a pretty good fraction of a T1 connection to
get a 39-player "Kali" race; you'd need much more than 56K baud of
bandwidth ...
