NASCAR® Racing 2002 Season PATCH README
1.1.0.1
04/15/02


[1] WHAT THE PATCH FIXES
====================================

AI:

* It is now much easier to bump draft with the AI.

* The AI will no longer pile up when many cars pit together (for example, during a caution period).

* When qualifying is skipped, each AI driver's parameters will be considered when forming the starting grid, instead of the grid being formed completely randomly.

* In a fixed setup race, the AI will now use the fixed setup during qualifying, instead of the host's default qualifying setup.

* The pace car will no longer dive back onto pit road under caution if the leader passes it and stays ahead of it as it passes the pit entrance.



MULTIPLAYER:

* Servers may now limit Sierra.com races by LPI.

* Open servers may now disable the ability for a boss to eject players using the open_server_disable_boss_eject setting in the [SERVER] section of core.ini. By default this is set to 1, which prevents open server bosses from ejecting players. Change this setting to 0 if desired.

* When a client is ejected or banned from a server, the user name of the person doing the ejecting/banning is given.

* The Chatpad Log is now separated for each individual player, and saved in the main NR2002 directory as chatpad_<player_directory>.log

* The sierra.com available races screen will now continue to discard chat from people in your muzzle list when you change chat servers.

* Clients that retire from a multiplayer race will now be listed appropriately in the standings.

* Clients whose connections are dropped before they complete the race, and who do not rejoin the race, will be listed as "Disco" in the standings.

* If you muzzle someone's user name by using the Add button to place them into your muzzle list on the sierra.com screen, they will now also be muzzled by their cdkeyid the next time they try to connect to your server. This keeps them from sneaking back onto your server by creating a new user name.

* If you wrecked your car during practice and hit Shift-R to return to the pits, other clients would not see that your car was repaired until you started moving. They will now see that your car is fixed even if you don't move.

* You will no longer receive errant end-of-race messages from a sierra.com registered race server while connecting to it.



RENDERER:

* Texture compression is now supported by the OpenGL renderer.

* Some improvements were made to the way smoke and dust is drawn.



USER INTERFACE:

* The scrollbar for the address book on the main Multiplayer screen will no longer draw over the connection dialog boxes.

* The 'Server Type' heading now sorts Open and Dedicated servers properly in the Available Races table.

* Clients in a multiplayer race can now see the latency/quality of other players in the Entries tab on the Race Weekend screen.

* The Entries tab on the Race Weekend screen now shows server admins in green, and bosses in gold (disconnected drivers are still shown in red).

* The Entries tab on the Race Weekend screen will now show player ratings while the left shift and left control keys are held down.



SOUND:

* Improved opponent car engine sounds to produce less crackling.

* Improved player car engine sound to reduce popping in mid-RPM range.

* Improved tire sounds to reduce popping with some sound card drivers (e.g. SBLive!).

* Added a new core.ini setting (force_min_readahead) to address occasional win2k/XP sound driver issue that resulted in much popping/crackling.

* Fixed 3D sound issue where some views would have severely muted focus car sounds.

* Did *not* fix 3D sound problem where internal (stereo) cockpit sounds will sometimes fail to play for some sound drivers (e.g. SBLive! on XP systems). Users experiencing this problem should not run with 3d sound enabled.

* Found an issue where if you had disabled sound, when exiting the game or viewing the win screen the game would appear to lock up, but in actuality it is just doing nothing until the music finishes streaming. The user can work around this by not having sound disabled and intro/exit sequences enabled at the same time.



MISCELLANEOUS:

* Fixed a problem where the game would lock up on the Player Info, Opponent Manager, and Paint Shop screens when using the Direct3D renderer and NVidia Detonator drivers with version 23.11 or later.

* You can now continue a championship season after having saved a race during the season.

* Your spotter should no longer errantly tell you that you are too far to the left or right if your pit stall is near the end of pit road.

* If you have automatic transmission selected and you break a gear, the transmission will now properly skip the broken gear.

* The post-race newspaper screen will now use proper suffixes for positions like 21st, 22nd, etc.

* Some improvements have been made to the graphical car model.

* Fixed a bug in the game's mapping of DirectInput devices which prevented the game from properly identifying some axes when more than one controller was installed.

* Fixed a bug at Darlington where the driver in the 43rd pit stall would erroneously receive a black flag when pitting.

* Fixed a bug at Kansas where the AI would get unsafe pit entry penalties on pit entry.

* Systems with video cards based on the Savage 2000, S3 Savage 4 and ProSavage chipsets should run in D3D with reflections turned off. Running in OpenGL will result in a crash.

witam
a niewiecie kiedy dokladnie N2002 bedzie w sklepach
juz jest patch a gry ani widu ani slychu

po raz 58 playit przesunął premierę - tym razem na 6 maja. Dostałem nawet maila od nich jakiś czas temu (bo już się wkurzyłem i im wygarnąłem) , że premiera na pewno będzie 26 kwietnia - w tym czasie na ich stronie podana była data 22 kwietnia. Data premiery rozpoczęła sie chyba od 20 któregoś marca i od wtedy, kiedy tylko zbliża się dzień premiery, na stronie pojawia się data przesunięta o kilka dni...

Qrcze to wszystko jest dziwne !!!
DariuszM mowisz ze premiera 6 maja, a wczoraj na kanale HYPER widzialem ich recenzje zwiazana z gra Nacar2002, pelna wersja (wcale nienajlepsza, mowili )
No i sam juz nic, jak zwylke niewiem .

recenzja na hyperze jest już od jakiegoś czasu, no ale oni się tam raczej nie trzymają daty pojawienia się gry w polskich sklepach
a recenzja na Hyperze jest extra - "sporo do życzenia pozostawia grafika, tekstury ciągle się powtarzają, samochody są niedopracowane, a widownia jest niestety tylko klockiem z kolorową plamą"
no - panowie z Papy mają dużo roboty w nascarze 2003 - żeby zadowollić redakcję Hypera będą musieli opracować jakieś algorytmy AI dla publiczności, żeby wstawali z miejsc, jedli hot-dogi, chodzili od toalety i bili brawo. Nie wspominając o grafice, bo żeby nie wyglądlai jak klocek, to każda postać z 200 000 tłumu będzie sie musiała składać z conajmniej 40 000 polygonów...a najlepiej jak będa wyglądali jak gośc na obrazku khaxa...

No wlasnie. Co to za fantazja.. Czy jadac.. nawet z AI driver patrzy na publike??? Przeciez ta gra i tak jest wymagajaca. Ale ze wozy sa niedopracowane to juz fantazja

Uśmiałem sie po pachy ogladając tą recenzje - najwazniejsza w symulatorze wyscigów, od tej pory według panów z Hypera jest symulacja widowni !!!

Jestem ciekawy czy panowie z Hypera dlatego tak nisko ocenili Nascara, dlatego ze tak uwazaja , czy moze ktos im za to zaplacil (czyzby EASports chcialo tez wydac Nascara? )
A tak jestem ciekaw czy w N2003 kibice beda mogli pic piwo czy cenzura im zabroni ?

Jedno co jest kiepskie, choc malo istotne wg mnie w N2002 to malowanie wozow, a ogolnie wyglad template... caly zagmatwany, ze tylko jasnowidz dobrze pomaluje odpowiednie czesci... no chyba ze ktos ma normalnego template a nie calego niebieskiego, jakiego mozna wyciagnac z gry lub znalezc na sieci

no i nie ma zadnych gotowych decals z reklamami jak były w Nascar 4...

Jak to nie ma? Sa, ja wlasnie na samochodzie do Nascar 4 uzylem reklam przeznaczonych dla N2002...
Skin samochodu w N2002 jest wiekszy, co daje lepsza jakosc troche.
