RC Demo-Rally Championship?

Long ago I dowhnloaded the demo for this game..played for a while. It has been sitting there for a long time and I just found it again. Could someone tell me what game this became in the end? And where I could find a copy if possible? (Mobile Rally Champions?) **** Eat well, stay fit, die anyway......

Do you mean Mobil 1 Rally Championship (UK title) / Rally Championship 2000 (US title)? If so, most people got it, liked it in some ways but whinged about the physics (try crashing into a haybale to see the point). It's out on budget here in the UK, and quite easy to find in places like GAME (EB as was), but I have no idea where to find it elsewhere. -- Idiotic deep-linking restrictions: http://www.dontlink.com (not my site) The GPL Scrapyard: http://www.btinternet.com/~gplscrapyard (this *is* my site: deep-linking welcome!)

Andreas, That's great news! I loved RC2000 (aka Mobil 1). The gfx were spectacular (unless you had 2 cars on-screen in multiplayer), the physics were patchable, and the stages were awesome. I had some issues with the gameplay, but overall, it's the best rally game I've seen. P.S. It works the best of all racing games with eDimensional's 3D glasses! --Steve "Andreas Nystrom" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:qwPb9.5059$[email hidden]...

I'll probably give it a try. Thanks :) Are there any recent patches for the US (Mobile 1) version ? -Larry "David Buttery" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I read on their web site that "Magnetic Fields no longer produce games". I would be very happy to see a sequel of RC2000, but where did you read the news? Regards Socius

Soc, No answer's been posted, so I went fishing. I found a new (since May) Mag Fields website: http://www.magneticfields.co.uk/ with the following msg: "Welcome to the new website for Magnetic Fields. This website will soon contain comprehensive information about the computer games developed by Magnetic Fields Software Design for Amiga/ST and PC. For now here are some brief reviews." This doesn't hint that they're working on anything specific, but why put one up unless you've got a bun (or two) in the oven, eh? Anyway, I flashed my press credentials and sent 'em a query. I'll let you know what obtains. --Steve Smith "Socius" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

If he'd delved a bit deeper he would have come across this on the RC page: "Magnetic Fields no longer produce games. The website exists just to show information and reviews about our old games, the last of which, Mobil 1 Rally Championship, was released over two and a half years ago. However, we appreciate that there are still a lot of people out there playing our games, some for the first time. I will keep updating this page with links to the best Mobil 1 Rally Championship pages around." -- AG Remove removes from address to remove anti-spam measures. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alan Gauton E-Mail agauton @ postmaster.co.uk Never for me the lowered banner, never the last endeavour!
