I tried a bigger mirror.bmp in cmaps.mas using masstudio2002 without success. It's working great in F12002 but in F1C I get part of the right mirror only. Anyone as a fix. This is a small thing but I find it annoying...
> Anyone as a fix. This is a small thing but I find it annoying... Unfortunately you have to change the SCN file for each track. There should be a line that says something like 128.0, 64.0 change it to something like 512.0, 256.0 (assuming those are the dimensions of your mirror.bmp file) Also at the end of the line is the centering for the mirror - I can't recall what to change it to but you should be able to figure it out. The problem is, there's 4 SCN files for each track and changing them all manually would take ages, so I used a text editing prog called Ultra Edit which has a 'replace in files' option which you can tell to do a search & replace through all .SCN file (remember to search folders as well) Good Luck!

Does this happen on all tracks? If it only happens on one or a couple of tracks, check the "rear view" setting in the track's .SCN file. It should have a size like (128, 64) and position of (64, 32) -- or something similar. My copy of TheRing did this, and changing rear view to match my working tracks fixed it. Worth a look.
Yes, I have it at 512 x 256. I'll try that tonight. Thanks. "Redmist" <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message de news: bf2j36$a5o5i$[email hidden]... > > Anyone as a fix. This is a small thing but I find it annoying... > > Unfortunately you have to change the SCN file for each track. Thereshould
