Hello all,
In Nascar2 I wanted to use my calendar I made using the Fantasy tracks.
So I made up a calender with 31 events. I even put the last line in with
all the x's and put that as 32. So I then put my calendar in the Nascar2
DIR and tried it out. Well, The two fantasy tracks never show up on the
quick race menue and when I try to start a new season, I'm always
getting the old calendar. Thing is, that file is nowhere in the Nascar2
DIR. But now here is the problem. Now when I try to load the game up it
won't start. It says it can't load the screen and I get a bunch of words
and numbers. It just won't load. So I when and put back the original
calendar file in the Nascar2 DIR and now it still won't load. I get the
Payprus logo screen then it goes wacko on me. Giving me a buch of
numbers and such. My question is...How can I get the game to load up
again? And How can I use my Calendar file I made in the game to run a
season. I never had a problem like this before and it's freaking me
out!!:-) I didn't mess with any other files, just the calendar file.
Someone please help. I really don't want to have to re-install the game,
then I would have to get the patches again all the cras I downloaded
ect. Anyone know what might of happened?
Thanks,
Matt
Okay, it sounds like you have some problems in the TRACKS directory.
When you installed the Fantasy tracks did they get put into directories
under the TRACKS directory? Did you unzip the files properly (with the
-d option)? Even if you did the latter you still need to move the
fantasy directories to their proper location under the Track directory.
I've also encountered this type of problem when I had a directory for a
track under the TRACK directory but all of the needed files were not in
the directory.
You should have the following directories for the Fantasy tracks under
the Tracks directory:
BULLRUN
REDROCK
If these directories are not there look in your NASCAR2 directory for
them and move them under your TRACKS directory.
The BULLRUN directory should contain the following files:
*ACE.STG
*BIGLOGO1.PCX
*BULLRUN.DAT
*BULLRUN.TXT
*DEFAULT.ST1
*EASY.STG
*EVENT1.PCX
*FAST.STG
*MAXPANIC.LP
*MAXRACE.LP
*MINPANIC.LP
*MINRACE.LP
*PACE.LP
*PASS1.LP
*PASS2.LP
*PIT.LP
*QUAL.ST1
*QUALIFY.STG
*RACE.LP
*RECORDS.TXT
*SPOT1.LP
*TRKLOGO.PCX
*TRKSHOT.PCX
The Redrock Directory should contain the following files:
*ACE.STG
*BIGLOGO1.PCX
*DEFAULT.ST1
*EASY.STG
*EVENT1.PCX
*FAST.STG
*MAXPANIC.LP
*MAXRACE.LP
*MINPANIC.LP
*MINRACE.LP
*PACE.LP
*PASS1.LP
*PASS2.LP
*PIT.LP
*QUAL.ST1
*QUALIFY.STG
*RACE.LP
*README.TXT
*RECORDS.TXT
*REDROCK.DAT
*REDROCK.TXT
*SPOT1.LP
*TRKLOGO.PCX
*TRKSHOT.PCX
