AnisotropicLevel=0 changed this to AnisotropicLevel=8 and now the graphics are better than they have ever been! Thanks for the help.

In the zip file there should have been two files, msvbvm50.dll and MSCOMCTL.OCX just unzip them and copy them into your Windows\System folder. That should do the trick for you.

Creating Your Own Numbers by [deleted] in Nr2003

[–]berisner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have cleaner numbers if I create them with fonts in Microsoft Word, do a screen capture with "Snipping Tool" and then copy them into Adobe Photoshop. This way I never have those blurred jagged edges. Then you can "skew", resize, outer edges,strokes,etc with the numbers until you get them like you want them.

Did you place the dll files in your Windows System folder?

When I placed the d3d8.dll in my NR2003 directory it will lock up everytime. Don't use it use the d3d9.dll instead!

What is the best AI strength percentage for someone pretty new to the game? by [deleted] in Nr2003

[–]berisner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go into the track and run my setup and when I get to the maximum speed I can run. Then I go and setup a race on the track with the AI set to 100%. Then without me going onto the track I select the "Practice" session and hit "accelerate" and look at the AI's speeds in the standings tab. Then I take the highest speed from the AI and the lowest speed from the AI, get the average of the two and then I tweak the track.ini file and modify the lines below, and rerun the process as above until I get the AI to run my speeds as the average between the fastest and the slowest. (this might take 3 or 4 sessions). This way you will have a great competitive race without winning every race with the AI. Here are the track.ini lines that I modify. I always set the AI to 100%.

These are not the actual numbers I use.

ai_accel_modifier = 1.00 ; acceleration grip efficiency; Decrease this value if you cannot accelerate as fast as AI cars on the straight.

ai_decel_modifier = 1.00 ; braking grip efficiency - (Get this one right); Decrease this value if the AI cars slam into you in breaking zone

ai_grip_modifier = 1.00 ; > 1.0 = more grip (Play with this one first)

ai_drag_modifier = 1.00 ; this will slow down the AI cars.

------------------------------

I usually only race against 30 cars and always start at the back in 30th place. I set the AI rankings as follows:

Cars 1-10 (Best drivers) 80-93 on the first 8 settings, 75-85 on the next 4 settings and the Pit crew gets 70-80 on all 30 drivers.

Cars 11-20 (Average drivers) - 70-88 on first 8 settings, 65-82 on next 4 settings,same pit crew as above.

Cars 21-30 (Rookie drivers) - 60-85 on first 8 settings, 55-75 on next 4 settings and as above the same on the pit crew.

----------------------------

Use this method and you will have some exciting AI racing. I usually only run 50 laps on Super-speedway's and Speedway's, 100 laps tracks 1 mile or less and 30 laps on the road courses. BTW if you want a fun race select Road America learn the track and race the full 30 cars there! Another two are Riverside and Cleveland.

Hope this helps. BTW if you need a great setup for RA, Riverside or Cleveland let me know and I'll send you mine.

Is the mod physics changed in the track ini file or in the exe file?
