indy car racing 2

Does any one know the difference between the regular tracks and the one that say "new" next to it? ((As in Michigan and Michingan New.))

I believe the ones marked new have been specifically enhanced with Rendition support. (ie: smoother graphics, better and frame rate ) if your running the Rendition executable of the game. The rest are the stock tracks that shipped with all prior versions of icr2 / cart and have not been touched for Rendition graphics.

No, the ones with new after it are the tracks that were rerendered in more colours than the original. If you have a rendition card, you'll get acceleration (graphics accel. that is!) on all tracks, but the ones with "new" will look better and play almost as well (more colours take more time to draw), racing the new tracks (other people on the net has also made more tracks with more colours) on the rendition cards is a marvellous sight and feel, it's SO smooth... ---Asgeir----

asgeir nes?en wrote Hmmm quiproquo here... Asgeir, Gary is telling the same thing as you ;-P . The other tracks aren't "updated" with better graphics, they just use 3d acceleration via Redline. >> I believe the ones marked new have been specifically enhanced with Rendition >> support.

> they just use 3d acceleration via Redline. There isn't any Redline support for ICR2/CART-3D, instead using what was then called SPDY3D [Speedy3D] drivers. Cheers! Marc -- Marc J. Nelson The Sim Project - http://www.simproject.com * No animals were harmed in the making of this e-mail *
