Re: low fps?

carm95.exe is a original file name. carma95.exe is a renamed file used in mods. So someone who does this updated version of ddraw wrapper set it to work with mods. It's not required to run setup-launcher for 95 execs, so renamed file can be running directly from C:\MAX_PACK.W95\... Is new ddraw.ddl ...

Re: Straight C2 to C1 converting

@Toshiba-3 Thank you for checking Swamp Rat. I don't remember details, except that effect is the same. I think you may be right, this may happened due to name conflict with some other car wheels. I will try to search for same names in other files, including some custom cars.

[This CarmagEdit is patched with PPP.
It is recommended to patch other C1 tools and game palettes.

Paint in selected language can be *extracted* from Windows XP Mode (I believe it's latest version). Window 7 is not required.]
