I just got NASCAR for the Mac, but when I run it, the splashscreen looks fine, but the rest of the game is all gross colours. I mean, REALLY gross. Like it suddenly switched to some different colour palette where blacks and oranges predominate. I've played with my "Monitors and Sound" control panel, and even switched desktop patterns. I have no other programs running. Machine: PowerMac 8500/150 Memory: 64 MB Colours: I've tried both 256 and 32,000 OS: 8.0 Extensions: On or off didn't make a difference NASCAR: 1.0.1 Thanks!

Not sure this will help but try giving the app a little more memory and delete the NASCAR Racing Preferences file in the System Folder. Bob

I'm using a 7100/66, 40 mb ram with OS8 and don't have any color palette problem with Nascar.. I don't know what it could be, but I suggest you to try to repost that on comp.sys.mac.games.action or to ask your question to the MACAR League: http://www.concentric.net/~Bobhall/MACAR/ Jim
