i restarted my laptop and tried a different mod which worked! then i tried bangers, which took about 5mins to load then finally worked!! but is there any way of speeding it up coz it used to take about 30secs? cheers pazza

thankyou both for your help i'll re-install nascar heat when i've got time, then i'll run all of the ukdirt files i'll back up all of the skins folders in the ukdirtbangers folder cheers pazza

it freezes on the loading page even when offline?! the heat.bin takes up 50mb of RAM and task manager says its not responding cheers pazza

when i play the bangers mod it gets to the loading screen, but "heat.bin" crashes. i think it might have something to do with installing monster truck mod yesterday, but i unistalled it today because i didn't think much of it. could it have ripped some of nascar heat or ukdirtbangers out at the same time? heres the error log 33.34.842: ====================================================================== 33.34.842: Sep 6 2002 12:09:31 N W32 M6 R senor_b 33.34.842: ====================================================================== 33.34.842: mem: p/s/t t/a 246M/75M 722M/448M 2047M/2023M 33.34.982: JoyBegin 33.35.013: Joystick 0: "USB 2-Axis 8-Button Gamepad" 33.35.013: joy 0: create_joystick 33.35.013: joy: created 0 as "USB 2-Axis 8-Button Gamepad" 33.35.013: joy 0: turned off deadzone 33.35.013: joy 0: x-effect unsupported 33.35.013: Config Dir: C:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\NASCAR Heat\ 33.35.013: Add-on tracks dir: "C:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\NASCAR Heat\tracks\" 33.35.013: mod: trying mod "ukdirtbangers"...33.35.013: mod.cfg found ok. 33.35.013: mod: Config Dir override: C:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\NASCAR Heat\ukdirtbangers\ 33.35.013: Running on WinNT version 5.1:2600 Service Pack 2 33.38.117: vid: Allowing 1024x768, regardless of fill rate 33.42.103: ddraw: created directdraw with ialmrnt5.dll (Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS,910GML Express Chipset Family) 33.42.103: ddraw: version 0.0.0.0 33.43.114: vid: 64 meg card (reported:121.722656) 33.43.174: vid: triple buffer on 33.43.344: texture: supports compressed solid texture 33.44.456: mr: 3D performance: 288 MPix/sec, 2261 KTris/sec 33.44.456: mr: fill rate is GOOD, poly rate is GOOD, machine speed is 1396 33.46.589: using sound mixer Sound 33.49.603: Using user driver file 33.53.099: name = *Bristol_UK_R.trk/trkshot.img, image = 10cf07c 33.55.792: unloading ui: 61.5 MB 33.55.873: unloaded ui: 61.8 MB 33.59.217: loaded race: 74.0 MB 33.59.608: ghost: Loading trackline *Bristol_UK_R.trk/Bristol_UK_R.gcf (Moz_55) [15.486990 sec] 33.59.778: prog remap: swapping 42 with 40 33.59.778: world: vertex damage 33.59.818: bpp: Track track.bpp should be rebuilt "release" 33.59.818: records: using actual track length: 400.000000 m 33.59.818: skill_range_fudge!

any help much appreciated cheers pazza

looks very good rodder one thing though, i think the grille should be completely flat, coz if it is convex it looks a bit like a corsair although quite a lot are saloons, the grille is the same, so these pics might help i'm not sure if you need these coz i know its a bit late!

that looks absolutely amazing!!! very realistic handling keep it up mate!

heres a skin of my favourite banger driver who usually races at Bristol. i know Lee186 has already made a skin of him but i decided to have a go with an unlimited skin heres the drivers txt table Driver number 198 name Marcus Goldsmith chassis graniie rank 1 race_image 100 body_style ccar wheel_basename mk2black end enjoy! pazza Marcus.zip

that looks brill nick! heres a pic i found in the gallery uploaded by tilly don't know if its a render or if its actually still in the game might be some help?

is there a .car file for it? how do get it in the game? cheers pazza

google came up with this http://home.gdal.org/projects/imagine/hfa_index.html convert it to tiff first?

what do you mean?!! have you got caravan pics or a caravan file to race the caravans in the game?

does any1 know if caravans have already been made and where i might be able to get them? btw nice mk2 jag NickM

some more wheels, and some caravans for caravan racing maybe?? if anyone wants a tga of any wheels, just pm me or reply on this thread

if any1 wants any more wheels, there are loads on this thread i made http://forum.kev149.com/index.php?showtopic=18072 thats where the cossie was from i think more choice of wheels would be really good cheers pazza

no probs erik! i wanted someone to make that wheel anyway! cheers pazza

i went to that meeting! i tried to get some square on pics of that car, but everyone was crowding round it in the pits. that was the Alternative World final - it was pure quality! very nice car. pazza

would it be possible to spectate online races in real time without racing in them? maybe you could sign in online ready to race, but when the race starts, you get the view like a replay. after all, you get spectators in real-life racing cheers pazza

i tried putting a Mk1 grille on the Mk2 but it didn't work the Mk2 chassis goes in at the front whereas the Mk1 goes out, so it looks weird. if any1 wants a go, the picture of the Mk1 front is attached oh well...

i went to a classic car show on sunday, so i got some more pics of wheels

thats quality! i like the lowered suspension

paintshop pro 9 is on this link http://pic5.piczo.com/675bangers/?g=12792755&cr=5

its probably because you've changed the colour of the passenger side, then copied it. i had this problem, but sorted it by copying the layer in its origninal colour (yellow), then changing the colour, then pasting the new colour on a new passenger side on top in a new layer. hope this helps pazza

so if any1 wants to model the 3 series PLEASE DO! use the photos on this thread and contact me if you need any more pazza@hotmail.co.uk here are some other ideas for new cars cheers pazza

i agree v. well done mate btw does anyone know where i can get a wheel 3ds file so i can start rendering?

i think a 3 series bmw would be a good addition to the large number of current bangers - becoming more common in real racing ... but i can't model! and a triumph 2000 mk1 (could be easy modification of the mk2?) pictures from www.TimandAlex.com cheers pazza
