I assumed N2k3, but the answer to my question would have also answered yours...<g> Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett Member Screamers Racing League IICC League GPLRank -2.4 MoGPL rank +302.38 ChallengeRank +54.48 MoC +743.77 Hist. +82.82 MoH in progress N2k3 rank:in progress Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.

NR2K3 (especially if you're using the D3D renderer). In article <Z3mLb.427480$J77.423577@fed1read07>, [email hidden] says...

Ok, then what car viewer? You can't keep the one in the game running when you hit the track, so I'm afraid I don't understand the warning...

The 3D car viewer that everyone uses to make sure their paint alignment is correct. It uses Direct3D. TIf you try to run the sim with the 3D renderer while running the car viewer, really nasty shit happens to your computer.

But if you normally run the sim in D3D mode(like I do), it doesn't seem like you should have a problem...
