CMR co-driver

5 posts by 3 people · 08 Dec 1998 - 16 Dec 1998

Hi all, Does anyone know in which file the sequences of the co-drivers speech are in CMR? And if so, does anyone also know the file format? I'd like to print out the instructions for a stage and do a multiplayer race with a human co-driver. Thanks for any info, Johan.

Why not do it "properly" - drive the stage slowly with your co-driver taking notes which the co-driver reads back during the race? -- Richard G.

Well, I did think of that, but it would be a lot faster to write a little program that does it for me. There's a hell of a lot turns in that game! // Johan

Yeah, but only doing that will give you *your* own pacenotes, with your own grading of every corner. Printing out the Nicky Grist text will only give your companion something to read - the end result will be the same. I queried Nicky about his notes last weekend and he commented that they are *not* as he and Colin would note the road. In fact, they're the opposite (so obviously Colin sees 1 as tight, 6 as flat) and they are only how the programmers saw the road. Shucks. John

This surprises me, I'd have thought that it wouldn't be too much work to have Nicky actually sit in, while someone "drove" the stage slowly and make pace notes then read them back while driving. Why didn't Codemasters take this approach? It would make it that little bit more realistic. -- Richard G.
