N2003 Is NOT Realistic!!

Joke about NR2003 missing Daytona trackside litter

David G Fisher joked that NR2003 was unrealistic because it lacked the litter fans had thrown on the track at the Daytona 500. Others added mock complaints about missing seagulls, rain delays and random flat tyres. Tom Pabst posted a spoof core.ini setting and screenshot to switch garbage on.

They forgot the most important feature in N2003. Not sun flare. Not dirt/oil build up on the windshield. They forgot to add the tremendous amount of garbage all over the track from fans who dont seem to know how to use a trash can effect. David G Fisher
Also, Dale Jr and Mikey dont lead every lap either at Daytona! "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

yep, thats what happens when you get a bunch of rednecks gathered together in front of national media attention. they don't know how to act. see, that's why we can't have nice things...

i belive the drivers even helped out by having their windshield tear-offs fly off while racing. i remember Kurt Busch complaing that he had 2 tear-offs fly off while racing and how come theres no mile long line at the porta-pottys?

Same thing happened in DC a few weeks ago- garbage and peace signs tossed all over the place. Very pathetic to see discarded "Save the environment- Stop the war" signs lying in the middle of the road.
And I didn't see the green dashed "best line" painted on the track at all yesterday. WTF?? "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Why didn't they input random flat tires?? Ya know...when you're going into a turn and POW! goes the tire - and BAM! goes you into the wall...
David... You obviously have not check out all the settings in NR2003! Papy did implement "garbage".....you just have to turn it on in the core.ini file. Check it out: www.pabst-racing.com/webscreens/nr03withgarbage-on.jpg Look for the following string in the "core.ini" file: [MnkyWrnchLCache] show_garb=0 ;set garbage on track surface (value=0-10) If that string doesn't show (its near the bottom in my core.ini), then you have to create it with the following .bat file (use WordPad...not "Notepad".....notepad doesn't work right): "garbagebat.txt" Enter the text exactly as shown above (make sure there are no extra spaces in the .bat file you create) and copy the file to the player.ini file. That will make the correct entry in the core.ini file....then you must set the value to something other than "0".....to your taste for garbage. The pic above has the garbage value set at: 5.77769 (I tried higher values but it was just too much garbage for my tastes). Geesh....thanks to the beta testers for giving this to us when the demo was released. Where have you been, David? Tom "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

That's actually happened to me before, but due to wearing out the tire, not random blow out.
