Still no good.  It shows the title screen, then gets to 'Enter your name:' and freezes completely. And if I make a batch file to run 'racing -cfg me' it does the same thing at the menu. Even with sound disabled completely, and with or without the patch.

I also have Big Red Racing and I remember it ran properly in windows, but without sound. I will try it again now with VDM Sound and see what happens there! I'll keep you posted, if it works, perhaps there will be a good soul to write a review for it out there? :angel: Not that I'm suggesting anyone :whistle:

I've got an old Big Red Racing CD here (used to love having LAN games at school  ), and it has both DOS and Windows versions. Unfortunately I can't get it to work much. So far I've tried:DOS version in Windows XP: Starts, but freezes at the name entry screen. Even the text doesn't shake like normal. Windows version in Windows XP: Windows complains it's not a valid Win32 application. DOS version in DOSBox: Starts, but anything with 3D objects like the vehicle selection screen and the races is unplayably jerky. I have a P4 3 GHz with 1 GB of RAM and was using 20000 cycles, so I don't think it's just my machine's spec. Has anyone had better results than these? |
