Oh, boy, don't I feel honored.... My very first problem with Nascar2...sometime today, I downloaded fastlap97, and when I tried to run it, it told me I didnt have the correct version,,,so,,,I went to sierra's site, and downloaded the version upgrade patch...ran it, and had to get several files off the original disk, since I had installed other patches which had altered some of them...anyway, it all worked fine afterwards, and I started playing with setups, and changing car bodies, so I could get my best lap figured out, when All of a sudden, right after I switched bodies for the last time, and went back to race, it did a few STRANGE things,,,for one, it told me that it could not find T_player.car ...it also was trying to read from a driver list called "none". anyway, I tried all three of my valid driver lists, and my name was nowhere to be found...I clicked "race" anyway, and it gave me the error on that screen, too "could not find T_player.car" also, on this screen, while this error message was up, you could see the driving mode selection,and it said "Simulation" instead of the usual "realistic" or "arcade" modes. I thought this was a bit odd, especially since when I clicked "OK" on the error message, the word "simulation" disappeared, and left you to choose "arcade or realistic" once again. Twice,,,I have taken the original T_PLAYER file from the cd, and reinstalled it in my cars directory, and repainted something which vaguely resembles my old car (wish I had made a copy of it somewhere) and TWICE, it has been deleted forever from the game and the computer (without a trace, I might add, I did a COmplete search) any suggestions???? it's probably one of those stupid little things I personally overlooked somewhere, but I need some H>E>L>P LOL :) -- Sit down,,Strap in,,Shut up,,Hang on,,Go fast,,Turn left,,Kiss Trophy Girl GGGGGGgoooo #3,,,31,,,28,,,94,,,6,,,5,,,18,,,8,,, Handy^man
