Richard Walker reports:
I've got the UK Windy release (v1.0.1) which, unfortunately, doesn't have the Rendition version on.
The copyright date is 1996 so I'm afraid that you can't use this as a definitive guide as to whether Rendition is included or not.
I don't have the box anymore but the CD case picture matches the one on your web site for Papyrus/Sierra CART Racing in terms of composition for the relative positions of the cars and with the 4th car being red rather than the Player's blue. The one significant difference is that the second car is the #8 Penzoil car (as per the original ICR2 box picture on your site) rather than the mythical #93 Papyrus one!
"CART Racing" was never released in the UK.
Alan Stares, in Australia, reports owning a similar version which is also not Rendition Ready.
J. P. Hovercraft reported:
Where I work, there's a Sierra multi-game package called "Editor's Choice Collection." In it, there's "Front Page Sports Golf", "Caesar II", "You Don't Know Jack", "Rama" and "CART Racing (formerly IndyCar Racing II)."
The game box illustration on the back of the game box looks more like the "Papyrus/Sierra CART Racing" box shown on Alison's "CART Racing Versions" page than it does any of the other boxes shown on her page, but it's not identical.
Can anyone verify that this is either the Rendition version or not?
Michael Thompson replied:
A similiar product was released in Australia. It had three of those games mentioned and was given away when you bought certain Sierra games including GPL.
I picked it up seperately on a bargain table in EB the other day for $5.
This contains Win95, DOS and Rendition versions. If you drill down through the directory structure you will see a Rendition directory.
