Batmobile Help Needed, Please!

Archived from groups: alt.games.need-for-speed (More info?)

Hi, All:

gamespot.com seems to be the only website actually carrying Eric
Arroyo's Batmobile for NSF III: HS, yet when I unzip the file his
readme.doc refers to some .qfs file which isn't there with the
package! All that has is the car.viv file....

Does anyone know where I can get the Batmobile, please??


TIA!

Thanks!

But, I *do* have the car.viv file placed, as per the readme.doc, in
the correct sub-folder, but there's no Batmobile in the game! It's
supposed to be there along with all the other cars, right?

Hi, thanks for the tip -- but what serial number?? A conflict between
what??

I should explain that I'm coming to this title through one of those
"free software" offers...in other words, very late and very lost!

Oh, one more thing (and sorry for the double post there), please: I
see the Batmobile now, but it's only available when playing "Hot
Pursuit," it's not available for "Tournament" or any other kind of
racing in the game -- why is that?? It's listed as "Pursuit
Batmobile" and the reason I didn't see it before was that it was
grayed-out in all the lists except when in "Hot Pursuit" mode....

Thanks again!

I'm not sure on this one, I've never tried a downloaded pursuit car.

For NFS4 - High Stakes, the game pad players with instant steering get
the fastest lap times. I use twin joysticks myself, a bizarre setup
unless you do radio control aircraft. A few players use a wheel and
pedals, but I've never really tried it.
