Daytona conversion

No, I'm not looking for the Daytona track. I've converted the Nascar 1 Talledega track to Nascar 2 because I needed a slightly different 2.5 mile superspeedway for my Daytona track. I've repainted everything on the track but I've come up against a problem I can't solve. The asphalt on my track is a mixture of dark greys but as I drive around the track the track up ahead keeps changing colour from a dark blue to a pale aqua green. In the "Asphalt.mi4" file the pallette contains only four shades of grey and I can't figure out where these other colours (the blue and the green) are coming from. By the way, I'm running the rendition mode on my rendition card when I drive the game. If anyone can help me on this one maybe I can return the favour. I'm in the process of converting the Nascar 1 Atlanta for use as the Homestead track, so I'll probably have the same problem again. Roy

Wish I could help you with you asphalt problem, but I can't. However, I am interested in obtaining the Daytona track if it can be used with Nascar2. Any idea where? Thanks

Don't expect me to teach it, but I'll try and point you in the right direction. =) What you'll need are the 3do-editing tools available at The Sim Project. You'll need to get into the 'dega.3do file, and going through the FLAVORS.TXT change the goofed-up colors. A fair understanding of what the values are is required, so carefully read through the readme.txt. Prost!...er...Cheers! Marc
