N4: clipping problems? <g>

GameSpot US has a N4 review, which raves about it (9.1 out of 10). I thought the second screen shot was pretty funny though - the 32 car is embedded in the tarmac :) http://www.zdnet.com/gamespot/filters/products/screens/0,11105,430930-115,00 .html

I've noticed this in three different races at Daytona or Taladega. I don't know how the skid marks got there, maybe someone did skid there? any case, between T3-4 while running up against the wall, there's a set of skid marks that drive vertically. Scared me when I came across them the first time not knowing what it was. It's as if some car blasted off like a rocket and left skid marks in the air on the way up.

When you follow someone online, you'll see some clipping if he brushes the wall...the prediction code will transplant his next point as several inches inside the wall..but since his car doesn't really enter the wall, I don't see it as a major defect...It can be disconcerting the first time you see it tho... dave henrie "David Erb" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:C%5l6.1150$[email hidden]... > > "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:eFYk6.1378$[email hidden]... > > GameSpot US has a N4 review, which raves about it (9.1 out of 10).

I've seen an AI car go completely inside the pace car..heh. Speaking of the pace car, it will give you a funny message every time you go and bump it. -Phasor "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:rzcl6.459058$[email hidden]...

I noticed that on a replay I was watching at Atlanta. The car, coming out of the final turn before the start finish line, nose dives into the track and comes back out. Wierd.... Gene On Thu, 22 Feb 2001 00:01:14 GMT, "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote:
