the simproject icr2 enhancements

there are so many messeges that get posted here everyday so i'm not sure if the 3d enhacements from the people at the simproject has gotten the recognition that it deserves. they have "made" 3d enhancements for the tracks that papy didn't do in the release of the rendition enhanced version of ic2 or cart racing. anyone that has a rendition board should pick up these enhancements. most noteably, the enhacements add sky to the tracks, but there are new textures for most everything in the tracks. Clevland is especially nice in the horizon/sky area. the setup is pretty much automated, so go pick it up, but be sure to read the readme file. http://www.simproject.com/ i think the people that put that artwork together should contact papy about a job. the game looks and plays much better than cpr even though cpr was a valient effort imo. the enhancements give some new life to an aging game and will keep me playing icr2 until papy releases icr3. thanks marc and the guys at the simproject.

Thanks, Tim! Putting the 3D track packages and the installer together was a lot of work, but a lot of fun, too. I know it was a lot *more* work for the artists! I'm glad some people are enjoying these great-looking track enhancements. With these track enhancements and other free user-developed tweaks like the sound patch and updated carsets, the Rendition version of ICR2/CART is still one of the best racing sims ever published, IMHO. The user-enhanced ICR2 is keeping me happy till the release of the next Papyrus CART sim, too! Alison Eagle Woman Remove the spam blocker NOSPAM to email me. http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~alison

I only wish I had a Rendition card. Maybe they could port it to 3dfx :-)
