an idea!
Post by Leo on Jun 17th, 2003, 8:53pm
i was just talking to aliek about the pal and ntsc differences and he came up with a pretty good idea for the conversion rate.
we need to know what is time raced by the blue falcon on the demo mode on Pt2 on the pal version. i'm pretty sure the ntsc time is 34"74 i think.. cant remember.. maybe we can come up with a conversion rate for at least lap times!
pls reply as fast as possible pal players

PS: i'm not being an arse again on this, its just that a 19"99 for dw1 lap on ntsc is extremelyyyy fast.. but weirdly van moer cant beat my race time... i need help on this

Well I watched the demo for a while and each time the Blue Falcon comes in at a time of 46"32.
If indeed it's 34'74 on NTSC then it would mean that the 1.33333.. conversion is dead on !
Excellent idea .. never thought of that myself. ( Mainly cos I never bothered to watch that crappy driving for the entire lap
)
Heh.. that DW fastlap I got was nearly flawless mind you. Used 3 boosts and perfectly managed to ride the entire inside rails in the corners without bouncing back or losing speed thanks to the boost.
I could also get a 2'19"1 race time but up untill now I always made some minor mistakes costing me a few tenths in the end. I'm also not sure if my 30"9x openers are fast enough.

Congrats Leo 
I guess F-Zero is gonna get pushed back one step further down the importance charts. Who knows, maybe you'll raise a new generation of F-Zero racers (the Ribiero saga continues through eternity).

I hope everything went well Leo. What's your daughter's name ?
Heh.. though I'm 27 myself I couldn't possible imagine myself as a father for the first .. hmm .. let's say 10 years.
