Beta N3 patch question

Does this mean that I won't be able to play over the internet against other drivers? This patch will make multiplayer incompatible with the CD version, so please install to a separate directory if you want to maintain a regular multiplayer version. Thanks

Yes, you are correct. If you want to playtest the beta, just install another version of the game in a different directory for that purpose. Philster

No there are plenty of folks using the latest stuff. It just means that you can't play people who are using patch 7 and earlier... -/-WW

It means that if you use the patch, you will only be able to race on-line against others who are also using the patch. You would not be able to race with guys who aren't using the patch. -Paul Western States Racing League: http://www.members.home.net/helipaul/n3.htm My reply address is false.

It means you can only drive with people that also are running the patch. -- ========================================= Speed Is Good Only When Wisdom leads The Way Mark McCuen #35 Hooters Monte Carlo www.hooters-racing.com =========================================

Most of the people who participate in this have the new patch, so they are able to race with you, whatever it's version 1.0.0.4 or 1.0.0.5 But we shouldn't talk about this here, hence Im hearing Black Helicopters right now <g> ;) -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

<sarcasm> Papyrus has a death-penalty to anybody who says such information in public newsgroup and websites. But I can hint by telling you to go at deja.com and search about it, it's easy to find ;) </s> -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...
