Q: I can't get my Joystick to work properly. I calibrated it correctly, but only the buttons work. The X and Y axes don't work. (My Joystick works well with other games in Windows 98)
A: There's nothing much we can do. You can check if you have the latest drivers and perhaps it's a strange type of Joystick. If you still have this problem, please contact the tech support of your country.

Q: I can't play via the Internet. What to do ?
A: You can't play via the Internet because they had a problem with the time. There will be a patch released to play via the Internet and a patch to fix all bugs for the game.

Q: Is there a patch for normal pedestrians with red blood ?
A: There are some patches, but not on this site...It takes too long uploading them and I only have 11MB web space so no patches can be put on my site.

Q: I have a joystick plugged into my computer, but Carmageddon II doesn't recognise it.
A: Check the joystick configuration in Windows. Go to Settings...Control Panel...Game Controllers and check to make sure that your joystick is configured correctly.

Q: I know I have a 3D card installed but the launcher isn't picking it up and offering me that option as a default.
A: Ensure you have the latest DirectX6 compatible drivers for your 3Dfx card.

Q: Parts of the menu and objects that should be transparent within the game appear dithered (speckled or dotty) instead.
A: A minority of older 3D cards do not support the effects that Carmageddon II uses for transparent objects in the game. To support these cards we have implemented the 'next best' option creating the effect you are seeing. Unfortunately any other solutions are limited by the 3D hardware you are using.our 3D card. Check the card manufacturers web site for the latest drivers.

Q: I bought a big car / bus / truck in the game and all I can see is that back of it in the race.
A: The camera in game is 'attached' to your bumper. If your car / truck / bus is too big to see over you need to adjust the 'bumper camera' using the 'up' cursor key to raise the camera view.

Q: The shadows are flickering under my car in a strange manner.
A: This is an artefact of the way that certain D3D cards handle the order in which items are drawn in the 3D scene. In the cards where this is occurring we recommend turning off the shadows option in the graphics menu.

Q: My mini-map has moved, what happened?
A: You can move the mini-map by holding shift and using the cursor keys. This enables you to move it to a location of your choice. If you play the software version of the game followed by the hardware version the mini-map will appear to be in the centre of your screen, this is easily fixed by moving it back to it's original location using shift and the cursor keys.

Q: During a game my controls stop working and a message "Task Switched - Running in Background" appears.
A: You have pressed either the 'Windows' key on your keyboard or the 'Alt - Tab' key. Consequently Windows thinks that Carmageddon II is no longer the uppermost Window on your desktop. Using the 'Alt Tab' key sequence should restore the game.
