I've taken it down in anger about someone's passing the Ring and Spa to someone else despite Dave's clear statement in the converter regarding this issue. Achim "Bob G" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Ja7ya.1774$[email hidden]...

That sucks Achim. I wish people wouldn't just pass the tracks around. Ruins it for the rest of us.

Achim: I can appreciate where you're coming from. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your setup work for NR2002 & 2003. They've proven quite useful! :-) -jde
I had been waiting for the NR2003 converter before downloading your setups. Guess I waited too long :-) I completely understand your position though. Seems there always has to be a few bad apples to spoil things for everyone else. Oh, and sorry about the name misspelling :-) Bob "Joachim Trensz" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:baavit$r15m5$[email hidden]... > I've taken it down in anger about someone's passing the Ring and Spa to > someone else despite Dave's clear statement in the converter regardingthis

Thanks guys for understanding, and I'm glad you like the setups. I'll put my site back up soon, I was just angry and needed to do something to vent the anger <g> Achim
Achim, It is truly maddening that someone would not pay $15.00 for a track converter that turns a very good sim into the best. It boggles the mind. Thanks to Dave Noonan and crew for your hard work. Thanks Achim for your setups, I to just love the way your setups drive, Thanks :) Dave B "Joachim Trensz" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:babivv$r3j2t$[email hidden]...

I'll second that Dave B. Cruising Spa is wonderful (eventually Ill try all the tracks). Thanks to all who made this possible! Great work. Mitch "DB" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

It boggles >the mind. You didn't say that right. If you want to be mad that someone posted the converter(just guessing here), then fine. Is that what happened? But to be mad just because someone won't buy it is wrong. I didn't buy the n2k2 converter, and I'm not sure if I'll buy the new version. Why? I have *enough* problems just keeping those beast between the walls on the ovals. I see no sense in PAYING to torture myself on the old GPL tracks as well... If that still maddens you, oh well... :-) Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett GPLRank:-1.950 MonsterRank: +305.145 N2002 Rank:+17.59 Never argue with an idiot.

I'm not buying the converter. I already paid for those Papyrus employee made tracks in GPL and N2003. David G Fisher "EldredP" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > In article <[email hidden]>, "DB" <[email hidden]>writes:

Eldred, You didn't read my post right :) I didn't say I was mad, I simply said that it is maddening that anyone would steal someone else's work. By converting a track and then posting it you are stealing intellectual property and a team of the guys the right to make a few bucks from there work. IMO that is completely wrong. PS: Sweet torture it is muscling Ncars around the GPL tracks :) Dave B "EldredP" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > In article <[email hidden]>, "DB" <[email hidden]>writes:

Yeah, that's what I *figured* you meant.<g> I hadn't heard that someone had done that, though. >PS: Sweet torture it is muscling Ncars around the GPL tracks :) Masochist... :-) Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett GPLRank:-1.950 MonsterRank: +305.145 N2002 Rank:+17.59 Never argue with an idiot.

But I was amazed at how well they handle the Ring and Spa (the only two I've tried yet). I would go as far as to say it's easier and more enjoyable to drive the Ring in a Nascar than it is in GPL! Ok, maybe equally enjoyable... and I have only done 2 laps so far, neither of which got a time. But I was expecting a struggle which is why I didn't buy the N2002 converter. Life has enough struggling already! Andrew McP

But surely that's no different to saying "I'm not buying Nascar 2002/3 because I already paid for Nascar 1/2"? What you're paying for is the improvements, and the improvement Noonan's selling is the ability to drive the latest Papyrus sim engine around some of the best tracks Papyrus ever mapped out.

Um yeah, could well be, but that's not *that* surprising - given that you're talking about a modern 2003 car with all the trimmings, compared to an old gripless low-tech sliding death rocket from 1967, ok ;) Regards, Rudy
In article <baeqk4$gef$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] (Ruud Dingemans) wrote: > but that's not *that* surprising Ok, point taken. But they do weigh more than your average Gulf War tank, and previous exeperince of road courses in N3/4/2002 had always had me running back to GPL. This time I actually enjoy it! Andrew McP
