Can't add cars to ss.net COT mod
I downloaded the latest version of ss.net's COT mod (The one with CTS physics). All cars that I download end in cup.car, but the mod only accepts cts. car.

Are there any downloads that work with this mod?
If not, can someone link me to an older version of ss.net's mod?

Thanks in advance.

To get the original SRD ss.net COT mod Cup physics cars to show up in the CTS version, you will have to download and use the car physics converter from MasGrafx Racing to convert them to CTS physics.

Here is the link to get it (it's the last file on the page, labeled "NR2003 Car Converter"):

Hope this helps.

Rob,

Here is a short tutorial on how to use the car physics converter from MasGrafx:

1. Double-click the file named "Modify Car Files" to open the converter program.

2. Navigate to the folder on your hard drive that contains the car files you wish to convert (what I've done is to create a folder in WinXP's My Documents folder called "cts cars" for converting the original Cup physics cars from here at SRD to CTS physics so that I can use them with the CTS physics version of the ss.net COT mod).

3. On the right-hand side of the program screen, click the button marked "cts" to convert the car(s) you've downloaded to CTS physics.

4. If you have just one car to convert, highlight the car file and click the button marked "Modify Car Files." If you have several car files that need to be converted, click the check box marked "Modify All?," and then click the "Modify Car Files" button.

5. For the ss.net COT mod with CTS physics v1.04, copy the newly converted cars here:

C:\Papyrus\NASCAR Racing 2003 Season\series\cotcts\cars

Hope this helps.

James

chadden24,

Yes, as long as the mod you're running has a version available with the physics that you want to convert to.

If you want cup physics use this link for the mod. That's the one I use and all car files are .cup.car.

WinRar is the program I use to upload the cars I do here. It is just a self extracting program that can be dowloaded here....

WinRAR download and support. WinRAR is a powerful Windows tool to compress and decompress zip, rar and many other formats: Download now
