I downloaded the ICR2 to N2 and N2 to ICR2 converters from The Pits, but neither seems to work as advertised. I try to convert a track from one game to the other (N2/N99 to and from CART) but in N99 I get "could not load comlete track description" and in CART I get "3-D track definition could not be loaded". Anything I'm missing here? Also, I'm using the Windows version of CART (DOS version won't recognize my Logitech wheel properly) and the Windows and DOS versions of N99. -- ----------------------------------- Morgan Vincent Wooten http://members.tripod.com/~morganv/ -----------------------------------

The free convertors only work with a few tracks. These are really demo convertors. Cleveland, Portland and Longbeach I "think" are the ones that can be converted from CARt, check the readme. And the same for the n2>icr2. look in the readme for which tracks are convertable. dave henrie

The Gerhard Lingenberg converters are for Nascar 1, not 2. If you want the N2<->ICR2 converter full version, you have to jump through the hoops. -Matt S.

I think your problem is you are in D3D not 3DFX. The converted tracks only work in 3DFX. Al "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

These converters apparently work on all N2 and CART tracks. They're listed in The Pits/Archives section. Both DOS command-line programs by Gerhard Lingenberg. The readmes don't say anything about them being limited demo versions and the necessary files are included for converting every track included in both N2 and CART. And I've tested in both the DOS-software version of N99 and the Windows-3dfx version. CART, of course, doesn't have a 3dfx version but I've tested both the DOS and Windows versions. Mainly, I'd like to try the CART tracks in The Pit Touring Car add-on and calendar file included indicates that converting all these tracks can be done. But so far I can't figure out how. -- ----------------------------------- Morgan Vincent Wooten mailto:[email hidden] http://members.tripod.com/~morganv/ ----------------------------------- Morgan VW� <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3bJq4.11781$[email hidden]... > I downloaded the ICR2 to N2 and N2 to ICR2 converters from The Pits, but > neither seems to work as advertised.
