MUST HAVE NRO!

Anyone with intimate knowledge know when NRO is going public? Nascar 3 will be on the shelves before they ever begin NRO on Ten! Perfect or not, let's get it on! Kirk (no flames please)

Kirk: I think you got it. NASCAR 3 and NRO. What has been the problem all along. NASCAR 2 is a DOS program and we need WINDOWS 95 version for NRO/TEN. The reason i believe that PAPYRUS has stopped work on NASCAR 2, as per, adam L, is they must be busting ***trying to get NASCAR 3/NRO out the door.. Who really knows???? Don Wilshe, IVGA

Why? --

I think they are realizing its not going to work over the net....!!! Its a dial-in or nothing like hawaii...!! If you cant run more than three or so on kali (and thats with good pings!) How are we going to run 39!!! Just my thoughts. Blake

I agree it probably is not going to work over the net, but comparing to Kali is not quite proper. Kali's limitation is that the host of the race is PROBABLY running via a modem. There is a bandwidth problem as well as latency. In NRO it will just be latency. Currently in modem racing the packets are transfered 15 times a second. I don't think the internet will be able to provide the same kind of performance. To maintain 15 packets per second, your pings would have to be stable in the 130 range. I don't see this working for too many people. My pings to www.ten.net (right now) are in the 300 range, and I am using Concentric as an ISP, 28,800 USR Sportster, P-166 computer, Win95 O/S. mykey

Well I'm sure he's sick of all the lies and excuses about when it's going to be available.Some say June others sayFall and still others say next year.

I have a Nascar 2 icon on the desktop. Just click and its running. Same for Nascar 1 and IRC2 also.

People.. I think we need to work on our logical thinking process. Nascar2 IS a DOS program. It runs in a dos box under windows. Do we NEED a win95 version.. I don't think so.. Just because you have an icon on your desktop doesn't make it a Windows program. And finally "brilliantly"... If you only knew how much CPU horsepower you losing up by running under Win95. Don, what we probably would want is a way to access the TEN servers while staying out of win95. mykey

Kyle: It running in DOS/4GW... Sorry, buddy but it aint no windows program. The first line in the NASCAR 2 say it doesnt work relaible in WINDOWS 95. You lucky don

That could be a solution. But for all of us bird brains that bought off the shelf computers, or win95 modems, that wont work. My modem just wont work in dos at the typical settings dos multiplayer games want, i.e. com 1-4 with Irq's lower than 7. I had to borrow a friends modem for the short period I played on Hawaii.

This is beginning to sound like another one of those "I don't believe Papyrus really is working on a patch!" threads... God Bless, Steve

snip snip You let your wife actually SEE the phone bills??? David Burton / Vetteracer on hawaii

Come on! Like really this is productive.............start an argument with the most influential man in history with respenct to NASCAR hacking issues.......about whether or not N2 is a DOS app. Rick

He wasn't arguing that if it was a Win95 or DOS app. Instead he pointed out that N2 runs fine for most people through Win95, which is all you need to play on TEN. --

If you re-read his post, you will notice he said it runs fine under Windows95. This means in a DOS window. His statement was to prove that Nascar2 will easily run within Window 95.
