Has anybody come up with a way to fix this spotter's message. At Indy in N2 if there's a wreck. the spotter refers to every place on the track as "down there". -Pat

Here's the Indy.txt that was posted from the thread incase you missed it. --begin cut-- FVERS 2 TNAME Indianapolis SNAME Indy PIT 115344 70402757 2710804 71725504 2161143 345023 27517184 39 41275904 70402757 2710804 PITSP 65 SPDWY 0 27 35 LENGT 2500 LAPS 160 160 FNAME Indianapolis Motor Speedway CITYN Indianapolis, IN COUNT USA PACEA 2 393857 100208 26736 -46736 75 QUAL 2 2 BLIMP -15242263 -6176609 GFLAG 78198652 TTYPE 3 CARS 39 39 TEMP 778 79 TEMP2 822 62 WIND 2684354560 268435456 80 50 2147483648 WIND2 2415919104 268435456 80 50 2147483648 RAIN 00 00 BLAP 52542 RELS 99 TIRES 61113 5800 75000000 61113 4800 75000000 0 SCTNS 8 5 3 DDLNG 12 38 72 113 150 177 213 265 344 427 464 498 558 621 657 709 733 DIDNT 17 1 14 2 3 16 4 5 36 32 38 24 23 25 10 30 11 COLOR 44 244 ASTRN 140 APOWR 115 --end cut-- Ron L.

That still doesn't completely fix it. I intentionally caused a wreck, got to the pits to fix the damage, and what do I hear but "The pace car is in the esses" along with "The pace car is coming out of the esses" Needless to say, it still needs work. I thought maybe by copying other values from a similar sized track (Michigan, Atlanta) might work, but Michigan's values didn't. <sigh> DNR Enterprises http://members.aol.com/dredick825/index.html =============================================== Home of the largest BGN site on the 'Net...49 cars and counting!
says... well i have played with the vals around a bit in indy and figured out how it works. add these two lines to your indy.txt and you will have spotter to all 4 straights and in all turns. works perfect i tested it for nearly 2 hours. man crash after crash, but spotter allways told right position. cu at indy robert DDLNG 66 131 196 261 457 522 587 652 DIDNT 30 1 29 2 18 3 31 4
