I was disappointed to not find Dale Earnhart or Ricky Rudd in the carset94. Could someone confirm my fear: NASCAR does not include all Winston Cup drivers? Are they independent?

> I was disappointed to not find Dale Earnhart or Ricky Rudd in the > carset94. That's a lincensing issue. For whatever reason Papyrus was unable to get the lincense to do those two teams. With only 38 slots available, that would have been impossible anyhow. But take heart: a lot of folks have done the art work and the editing to develop carsets with your favorite drivers! The NRL (NASCAR Racing League) on the Papyrus BBS has an excellent set and there are others out there with good sets as well. I've got a great Ricky Rudd car (the guy who did this must be a Rudd fan) that is detailed to the point that if you are behind him you can see the 'trunk' pins. I've also got the silver edition of Dale Earnhardt - another great job. That is a very beautiful thing about NASCAR - you can paint your own car (mine's a Hershey's Kiss sponsored car) or bring in someone else's artwork. Then you can modify the drivers.txt file to give it the appropriate 'feeling'. Mike

NASCAR doesn't include all the drivers. But there are carsets available that include all the drivers. There are several folks on CompuServe who post a new set each week with all the drivers qualified for the event.

Are they independent? Not exactly. Contracts with other companies prevent Papyrus from getting them in the games. Its the same situation with Indy and Daytona. :( Solution for the drivers: Do some hunting; you'll find just about every car (real drivers and not real drivers <g>) out there. Even Earnhardt's. I was, for a time, using Earnhardt's #3, but I made my own (named "BLaK MaJiK") --- * TLX v4.10 * Mail is a Subject's way of producing another Subject. --- * OLX 2.2 TD *
