Has anyone gotten the Rolex24 car set to work? I can't get it to work in low or high res, and this is on a clean install! I would love some help, as I've heard this set is worth it.

I got it ti work no problem. Might have to do with the fact that most car sets must be unzipped to just the cars dir. This has to go to the nascar\cars\rolex24 dir. If that isnt the problem fill me in a little more on the install process you went through and what not.

I'm aware of unzipping, as well as very familiar with adding car sets to N1. Yes, I put it in a Rolex24 directory. The problem is, as soon as I select the Rolex24 car set in N1, it crashes and reboots. Then, I have to reinstall N1 (I know, it only takes two minures to install, but it's a pain in the ***after the third or fourth time) to get it to run again. I've tried running it in both high and low res, same result. Are there system compatibility issues? I'm running N1 on my old Abit board, Intel P166, 48MegRam. >>Has anyone gotten the Rolex24 car set to work? I can't get it to work in >>low or high res, and this is on a clean install!

I dont think there should be. I got it to work on my old system which is a 486dx with 50MegRam. Im not to familiar with the Abit board though. You might try re-installing your drivers but since N1 is DOS i doubt it will make a difference. Oh yea, while im on that, try rebooting to DOS before trying to run the game (unless you already do). I seem to recall a similar problem when i tried running it with Win95 in the background. If that doesnt solve the problem im stumped!! Anyways i hope this helps cause the cars set is very worth it as you have heard (damage model is bad though).

It may be a compatibility issue between the N.American version of the game and the UK/Europe/Can(?) version. I believe there is a carset converter at the Pits but I expect it's in the archives. Could try that as otherwise there's no reason esp. if others have got it to work. Good luck! -:http://www.simproject.com/ccg/

Hello, Yes the car set is worth the download, You need to make sure you have run all of the patches from sierra to upgrade your N1, If you are loading the patches and still having problems pehaps you need to redownload the set as maybe it got corrupted in the download or something, If any of this does not work feel free to email me directly.
