N99 problems/any sites??

5 posts by 5 people · 25 Dec 1998 - 29 Dec 1998

Hey all. I just got my N99 and think it's pretty good. my Big problem is the 3d version. Can't get it to work. It will boot into the "race start" screen.........but my mouse will not go low enough to click on race, leave track or the likes....and it is also VERY jumpy in the same screen. It also will not go into the game if I click on my start button shortcut........I have to use the "nr1999.exe" right from the directory. It freezes on the Papy splash screen if I use the start button. Other than that.......I am happy and like the new tracks. Next question....can anyone tell me some new sites that offer add-ons, patches or what-not. Also.........will ALL N2 patches work on N99 ?? Thanks for any help here. p.s. I have a Cyrix P166+ chip if it makes a difference.

I think you need to right click on the propeties of n21999.exe and make it "FULL WINDOW" or the mouse will no to the bottom of screen

For the mouse problem, make sure that you have the correct mouse drivers installed. In Windows, you don't need drivers, but in DOS (or DOS based games) you do. I believe that all N2 patches are taken care of in the release version of NR1999.

This is an old problem that occured with N2. I have never heard of it happening with N1999... Have you mixed up your versions, or applied N2 patches to N1999? -Larry
