sierra daytona track

if some one needs the daytona track from sierra let me know i have it

I think this whole sierra daytona thing is a crock, but still...I'm not going to Daytona so I have no chance to pick up the CD. Are you offering a site download or just email it? Either way is fine. Thanks. Anthony

Hello. Please add me to any mailing list. But the thought that it would be so publicly offered, knowing the bit-pull tactics that have followed this track. Well we could then start a thread asking to help post bail. Later, BTGoss

I would love to have it! Thanks! Racer

Just use the same copy from N3 and run the PALFIX program to fix the palette. All should be fine.

It's not that simple -- I tried it. At 99% the AI cars are turning laps in the 196-199 range while I couldn't get above 192 or 193. The difference is the grip in the turns. There needs to be some changes in the DAYTONA.TXT file to properly set the cars' grip, etc. If anyone would like to do so -- since I don't have a clue what most of those numbers mean -- please do. The graphics aren't that big a deal to me but having good racing is...

Is this for GPL? If so, send it to me! Thank you. Mauricio >> if some one needs the daytona track from sierra let me know i have it >Hmm.. offering tracks via r.a.s. >Anybody remembers? Tee hee...

Pick me! Pick me!

Same here. I figure if I ask enough people, one of 'em will send me a copy Thanks!

I still think that Sierra should appreciate the customers who've been faithful to them since the days of the original Indy 500 game and make it available to registered customers for nothing -- and yes, I know all about DIS and distribution rights doo dah doo dah -- but if they permit Sierra to use their name and likeness, that permission should extend beyond this one situation.

Yes, I feel so honored that they take our money ! We all should feel very lucky indeed, that they even allow us to purchase the sims.

if some one needs the daytona track from sierra let me know i have it ====================== If you're still offering, I'm interested! I've looked everywhere for it and can't find it... just the Talladega conversions.

You aren't kidding about that, hehe. I own both games and found a converter to bring the old Riverside over to N3 to race on with the N3 cars. It's a fun track, but my N3 car feels just like the NL cars, lol, almost no difference in feel. I would have thought the modern day cars could hold the track better than the 1970 cars, hehe. It was like driving on ice, and while i'm struggling to keep my "lead-sled" of a modern day cup car on the paved part of the track, the AI is putting out record laps each time out, lol. But yeah, had to do with game settings in that file, i know what some of the numbers do, but I don't feel confident enough, or knowledgeable enough, to make the changes myself. I've never driven a Winston Cup car myself, lol, so I can't say how it will, or won't, handle on a specific track or condition. I can basically guesstimate, based on running the Glen and Sears Point alot, those 2 make my car feel like it's glued to the track compared to the converted Riverside, hehe. Yeah, I'd rather have the Papy NL Daytona, rather than trying to compete using a 1970 car and the AI running 1999/2000 cars. (One of the numbers in the files tells the AI how fast to run on a certain percentage, say like if you set the AI to run 100%, then they will turn laps at a given speed. If you set it to 95%, they'll run at another given speed based on the formula it uses, which is based on info in the track.txt files, which is why the AI was blowing you off the track while you're struggling to keep your car in the groove, hehe. Also, these numbers, if it's an N3 track, will base it on what a 1999/2000 car would do, not what the 1970 cars would do.) I could be wrong about all this, but I have specifically seen a scale entry in some tracks that relate to how the AI run on the tracks, how fast their lap times are, and it could also relate to the AI info in the "records.txt" file too. Uses either one, or both, of these to give the overall AI performance on the track. Destin

I realize all the legal powerplays etc, but sometimes I think they go a just *tad* off the deep end sometimes, lol. So follow this humor some....just humor, lol..... What I wanna know, is what does the TRACK have to say about all of this? I'm sure he/she/it doesn't like being exploited for money. Does International Speedway Corporation pay the Daytona track for the use of it's identity, it's likeness, it's nicely paved surface? I think the "track" should get paid. As it stands, the track itself is the one getting ripped off. It's nice, some would call it beautiful, georgous, pretty, a wonderful surface to race on, etc, etc. But yet they don't pay the *track* a penny. I'm in favor of them putting a vault in the middle of the infield, and for every dollar they make off the track, they give the track a dollar in return. Hmm, they would make no money. Ok, for every $2 they make, give the track $1. Still making 100% profit off the track. Ever wonder if some mega-company like Microsoft, or RJ Reynolds might one day say "We've acquired the rights to Cindy Crawford. Anyone who dares pirate her image, her likeness, creates clones, etc....will face the full fury of our crony lawyers." Then one day, Mrs C. Crawford forgets that she don't own her identity, leaves her house to take a jog around the block. Suddenly, coming out of turn four, errrr, coming around the corner down the street....she is suddenly swarmed by a whorde of lawyers and photographers. "Ah hah Mrs Crawford!! We caught you red-handed!! By showing yourself in public, you are a pirate and a thief!! How dare you steal our imagine, our likeness!! Or are you a clone? Where is your "cloner"?? Fess up Mrs Crawford, you got to pay the Reaper now!!" <Evil laughter in the background from whordes of lawyers fixing to be richer than Bill Gates> Somehow, I can imagine that being in a George Orwelle novel, lol. And probably we are 10-20 years from that very thing. Have fun laughing folks, couldn't resist interjecting a little humor, or even make ya think, lol.

A thought struck me. (Ouch!) Get this, and if I was a famous Nascar racer, I would damn sure do it. :o) Fast forward to the near future... the year is 2001.... Headline: Daytona, Florida...Feb, 2001..... "It has been learned today that Dale Earnheardt has gone commercial. He has informed the owners of Daytona International Speedway, that he deserves his "fair share" for helping to bring in the droves of crazed fans. Mr. Earnhardt reportedly wants $100,000 just to show up for the race, as his racing heritage...his breeding and up-bringing...his past honors and glories....his skill and prowess behind the wheel of the most powerful stock cars on the planet.....all these combine to draw in the flocks of fans, of which, all of their hard earned money, food stamps, etc...all that goes only to ISC, the owners of DIS. We have attempted to contact ISC, but got an answering machine.....but couldn't help notice hearing what sounded to be heated discussions and legal wranglings in the background. Parts we picked up were... "We're gonna... sue......... the ........ out of ....... who does he think he is??......<beep> "Please leave a message after the tone."" Dateline: Feb, 2001...Daytona, FL.. It has been learned today that ISC is suing nascar driver Dale Earnhardt for $600 GAZILLION. They say will never stoop to being "one-upped" by a lowly grease monkey who drives a car. They also say that should the said, Mr. Earnhardt, finish in the points, and in the money, he will get no prize money for his efforts, as the fact that RACING ON DAYTONA is a PRIVELIDGE and not a RIGHT. That it's he, who should be fortunate they'll let someone of his poor abilities even participate in their "grand" races. Just his pleasure of racing on the "legendary, esteemed, world famous" Daytona track is PAYMENT ENOUGH. This late word in...NASCAR, the governing body, their committee has let it be known that Dale Earnhardt will recieve NO official points from the race at Daytona. That his "John Rocker style" outburst upon the glorious ISC and it's members was totally out of line and will not be tolerated. This reporter can't help but be honest and point out one stunning observation....the Nascar officials appearing at the press conference appeared to be wearing horse riding pants...or could that be pockets lined with money?? Hmmm.... errrr..... umm... that concludes the evening news. <Background noises and a sudden "You're fired!!!", followed quickly be commercial "Tide, it really gets your clothes clean!! Just ask ISC!!" Hahahahha, now that is something I can very well see happening in the very near future!!!! ROFLMAO Destin > I realize all the legal powerplays etc, but sometimes I think they go a just > *tad* off the deep end sometimes, lol.
