If you do not have DirectX 7.0 or better installed on your computer, please download the latest update from http://www.microsoft.com/directx

Video Cards with Known Issues
If you are using any of the video cards listed below, you may experience problems playing the games. Known workarounds, when available, are included below.

Issues with Motocross Madness
ASUS V6600 video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, some bike textures may disappear at various camera angles. Currently there is no workaround for this issue.

3D Blaster Savage 4 video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, some terrain textures will have a red tint at 1600x1200 resolution. To avoid this problem, run at a lower resolution.

Issues with Monster Truck Madness 2
Rage Fury Maxx video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, water textures don’t render properly. Currently there is no workaround for this issue.

ATI Rage II video cards (PCI). Vehicles in the preview pane don’t render properly when using this card on Windows 98 SE and your Windows display settings are at 32-bit color depth. To correct this problem, use 16-bit or lower color depth.

Accel GraphicsStar 2 video cards. Some textures don’t render properly when running with reflective textures option turned on. To avoid this problem, turn reflective textures off.

Issues with Midtown Madness
Voodoo 3500 TV video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, Midtown Madness will display an error when trying to play the opening video. Click OK to dismiss the error and enter the game.

ATI 3D Rage II+ video cards. Midtown Madness crashes to the Windows desktop after closing Help when using this card. Currently there is no workaround for this issue. If this occurs, restart the game.

Hercules Terminator Beast video cards. When using this card, you may encounter graphics problems if the best texture option is selected in the Midtown Madness graphics options. To avoid the graphics problems, select a different texture quality option.

Matrox Millennium II / Diamond Stealth G460 video cards. When using these cards on Windows 98 SE, the game may crash if your screen resolution is set above 800x600. Use a screen resolution of 800x600 or lower.

Nvidia Riva TNT, Riva TNT2, and GeForce chip sets. When using a video card based on one of these chip sets, you may not be able to run Midtown Madness if your computer’s screen resolution is set higher than 640x480 pixels. If this occurs, we recommend installing the latest video card drivers from the Nvidia web site.

1. General Notes and Troubleshooting
=======================================================================
1.1. Getting Help from Microsoft Technical Support
If you are having problems installing or playing Monster Truck
Madness 2, first look in the Monster Manual, the online Help system,
or consult the jewelcase booklet. You can open Monster Manual even if
you haven\'t installed Monster Truck Madness 2 by double-clicking
monster.hlp (located on the Monster Truck Madness 2 disc). You can also
find late-breaking updates and technical information in this README.txt
file or in the FAQ.txt file (located in the directory where you
installed Monster Truck Madness 2 or on the Monster Truck
Madness 2 disc).

If you still have a question, Microsoft offers technical support and
services ranging from self-help tools to direct assistance with a
Microsoft technical engineer. For details on these options, including
telephone numbers, double-click monster.hlp (located on the Monster
Truck Madness 2 disc), and then open the \"Getting Help from Microsoft
Technical Support\" book in the Table of Contents. You can open this
Help file from the disc if you haven\'t installed the game.

1.2. Racing classic tracks from Monster Truck Madness Version 1.
You can race the classic circuit and rally tracks featured in Monster
Truck Madness Version 1 with this new version of Monster Truck Madness.
Drag races are not available in Monster Truck Madness 2, and the
Version 1 tracks may not display the same high-quality photo-textured
graphics as the new Version 2 tracks.

If you own a copy of Monster Truck Madness Version 1, follow the steps
below to make Version 1 tracks available from within Monster
Truck Madness 2:

1. Install Monster Truck Madness 2.
2. Open pod.ini (file located in the folder where you installed
Monster Truck Madness 2).
3. Add lines to the end of the file that includes the paths to two
files installed with Monster Truck Madness Version 1: game.pod
and truck.pod (files located in the System folder where you
installed Monster Truck Madness Version 1, or in the System
folder on the Monster Truck Madness Version 1 disc).
4. Change the number at the top of the file to reflect the total number
of pods listed (i.e., if you added game.pod and truck.pod to
the list, change the number at the top of the file from 19 to 21).
5. Save and close pod.ini.
6. Start Monster Truck Madness 2 and navigate to the Races screen.
The Monster Truck Madness Version 1 classic circuit and rally
tracks are included in the Track list (they\'re listed after the
Version 2 tracks and Summit Rumbles).

If you do not own a copy of Monster Truck Madness Version 1, connect
to the Monster Truck Madness Home Page on the World Wide Web, where you
can download tracks from Version 1 individually. Complete instructions
for downloading are included on the Web Site. Click the Web Page button
on the game\'s opening screen or click Microsoft On The Web on the Help
menu. The URL for the Monster Truck Madness Home Page is:

http://www.microsoft.com/games/monster/

1.3. Racing add-on and self-created tracks in Monster Truck Madness 2.
If you purchased any third-party track add-on packs, created your own
tracks, or acquired any independently created third-party tracks for
Monster Truck Madness Version 1, you can race these tracks using
Monster Truck Madness 2.

Follow the steps below to import third party add-on and self-created
tracks for use in Monster Truck Madness 2:

1. Open pod.ini (file located in the folder where you installed
Monster Truck Madness 2).
2. Add lines to the end of the file that include the paths to the
pod files that include the third-party add-on or self-created
tracks.
3. Change the number at the top of the file to reflect the total
number of pods listed (i.e., if you two pod files to the list,
change the number at the top of the file from 19 to 21).
4. Save and close pod.ini.
5. Start Monster Truck Madness 2 and navigate to the Races screen.
The third-party or add-on tracks are included in the Track list.

1.4. 3D accelerator card improves look and speed of game.
Purchasing a high-quality 3D graphics accelerator card is the
single best way to improve the speed and look of Monster
Truck Madness 2.

1.5. Ejecting the game disc causes program to stop responding when
you\'ve installed the game using either the Compact or Typical
installation option.
If you chose the Compact option during setup, do not eject the
Monster Truck Madness 2 disc while the game is running. If you do so,
Monster Truck Madness 2 will stop responding.

If you chose the Typical option during setup, you must have the Monster
Truck Madness 2 disc in your CD-ROM drive in order to play the game\'s
opening movie, clip scenes, and the online Help movies. Ejecting
the disc while of any of these movies is playing may cause Monster Truck
Madness 2 to stop responding.

1.6. Long file names for Instant Replay files may result in
unsaved file.
If the total number of characters used for the complete Instant Replay
file name, including path, exceeds 200 characters, the file may not be
saved and no error message is displayed. To avoid the problem, limit
the number of characters used to name Instant Replay files to less than
200 characters.

1.7. Trouble completing Sidewinder Canyon and The Excavation tracks
with low transfer gear settings.
If you\'re having trouble making your jumps while racing the Sidewinder
Canyon rally track or the Excavation circuit track, try increasing your
transfer gear ratio. When racing these tracks with a low transfer gear
setting (800 or lower), you may not have enough launch speed to execute
the jumps successfully. Increasing your transfer gear ratio setting for
these tracks to 1600 or more should have you flying to the finish
line in no time.

1.8. Unusual weather effects when running in Software Only mode.
If you are running Monster Truck Madness 2 in Software Only mode
(Graphics Renderer list, Graphics command, Options menu), and
you select Weather options, including Snow or Rain, you may encounter
some strange weather as you\'re racing. For example, rain and snow may
be falling in tunnels and other covered areas.

1.9. Pressing buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously on your joystick or
race car controller changes view while racing.
Pressing buttons 1 and 2 on your joystick or race car controller
simultaneously changes view while racing, regardless of how your
joystick or controller is configured. To avoid the problem, press
one button at a time on your joystick or controller.

1.10. Canceling intro movies using right mouse button causes
pop-up Help to be displayed.
If you cancel the intro movies as one is being played by pressing
the right mouse button, pop-up Help is displayed when you\'re
selecting a track. To avoid this problem, press ESC to cancel all
intro movies, or click the left-mouse button to cancel each intro
movie separately.

1.11. Changes to entry in Player Name box not being saved.
If you type a name in the Player Name box (Driver Check-in
screen), switch focus to another control, and then make a simple
change to the previously entered Player Name entry (i.e., changing
a character from lowercase to uppercase), your change may not be
saved when you switch focus to another control. To clear the
Player Name list and start fresh, delete the file player.pro from
the folder where you installed Monster Truck Madness 2.

1.12. Pressing ALT key while racing causes screen to go black.
If you press the ALT key while you are racing, the menu bar is displayed
and the game window goes black. To restore the game window, click the
left mouse button anywhere in the game window.

1.13. Computer-controlled trucks sometimes disappear and then
reappear while you\'re racing.
Depending on the game view you\'re driving in and your proximity to your
competitors, computer-controlled trucks may appear to disappear and
then reappear in a slightly different location when they are near
checkpoints. This behavior has no effect on the final results of
the race.

1.14. Menu options appear to be unavailable after multiple
menu selections.
If you are using Windows 98, and you select multiple menus, some menu
items may appear to be unavailable. Although a menu item may appear
grayed, it is still available.

1.15. When Windows power management options are turned on, Monster Truck
Madness 2 stops responding if you are using a joystick or race car
controller.
If you are using any of the Windows power management options,
Monster Truck Madness 2 may stop responding if you are playing
the game using a joystick or race car controller. To fix the problem,
turn off Windows power management options before you start Monster
Truck Madness 2.

1.16. Screen may need resizing to display menus after starting Monster
Truck Madness 2.
If the menus at the top of the screen are not visible after you start
Monster Truck Madness 2, use the controls on your monitor to resize the
screen to display the menus.

1.17. Opening a saved Instant Replay file after completing a race erases
Instant Replay file for the race you just completed.
If you open a previously saved Instant Replay file after completing a
race, the Instant Replay file for the race you just completed is erased
because the saved file you opened fills the Instant Replay buffer. To
avoid this problem, open saved Instant Replay files before you start
racing or after you\'ve viewed the Instant Replay file for the most
recently completed race.

1.18. Cannot open Instant Replay or Saved Race files from Monster Truck
Madness Version 1 in Monster Truck Madness 2.
You cannot open Instant Replay or Saved Race files from Monster Truck
Madness Version 1 in Monster Truck Madness 2. If you attempt to do so,
your computer may stop responding, or an error message is displayed.
If an error message is displayed, do not click the Debug Information
button.

=======================================================================
2. Multiplayer Notes and Troubleshooting
=======================================================================
2.1. Pausing during race may result in misreporting of checkpoint
progress.
When participating in a multiplayer race, if one player is paused while
an opponent is driving through a checkpoint, the fact that the opponent
has driven through the checkpoint may not be reflected on the paused
player\'s machine, which may result in differing final results on
participants\' machines.

2.2. Long player names may overwrite displayed score during Summit
Rumbles.
If any participant enters/chooses a player name that is longer than
10 characters, and then starts a Summit Rumble multiplayer session,
the score displayed on the screen for that participant may be
overwritten by the player name. To avoid this problem, use only
player names that do not exceed 10 characters.

2.3. Dynamic scenery objects are not in-synch for all participants
in a multiplayer race.
If you are participating in a multiplayer race or Summit Rumble, you
may find that you and your opponents see and interact with different
dynamic scenery objects depending on your Scenery setting (Scenery
list box, Graphics command, Options menu). For example, if you have
your Scenery setting set to Complex (Slower), and you are racing
the Farm Road 29 circuit track, you may encounter and interact with
the moving train while your opponents see the effects of the train,
but not the train itself. To avoid this problem, make sure that
your graphics settings match those of your opponents before you
start a multiplayer race or Summit Rumble.

2.4. Host of Internet Gaming Zone multiplayer session should not
start race until Monster Truck Madness 2 has started on all
participants\' machines.
When hosting a multiplayer session via the Internet Gaming Zone, it\'s
important to make sure that Monster Truck Madness 2 has started on
all participants\' machines before the host clicks the Ready button
to start the multiplayer session. Otherwise, some participants may
be left out of the session, while others may see an error message.

2.5. Monster Demo not available during multiplayer sessions.
When you are participating in a multiplayer session, you cannot play
Monster Demo (Monster Demo button on Start screen). To play Monster
Demo, first disconnect from your multiplayer session (Disconnect
button on Multiplayer screen).

2.6. Accessing menus or right-clicking on-screen while a multiplayer
session is loading, or while results are calculating at the end of
a race, results in screen corruption.
If you attempt to access the menu bar or right-click on the screen
while a multiplayer session is loading or while results are being
calculated, the screen may be corrupted and the multiplayer session
may be interrupted.

2.7. If one participant has revealed the secret track, participants
who have not discovered it may encounter display irregularities.
During multiplayer sessions, if one participant has revealed the secret
track, participants who have not discovered it may encounter display
irregularities. To fix the problem, find the secret track!

2.8. New host in Zone session may encounter an error message.
During multiplayer sessions on the Internet Gaming Zone, if the
original host exits the session, the new host may encounter an
error message if he/she clicks the Ready button before the other
participants. To fix the problem, make sure the new host does not
click the Ready button until all other participants in the session
have done so.

2.9. Problems with text-based chat messages when using IPX Connection
for DirectPlay option.
When exchanging text-based chat messages during multiplayer sessions
when using the IPX Connection for DirectPlay option, you may
encounter problems, especially when sending and receiving messages
simultaneously.

2.10. Participants who join a multiplayer session that is already
in-progress may see inaccurate results on Hall of Fame screen.
If you join a multiplayer session that is already in-progress, you may
see inaccurate results displayed on the Hall of Fame screen at the
end of the session.

2.11. Hall of Fame may display results for participants who join a
multiplayer session already in-progress but do not race.
If you join a multiplayer session that is already in-progress, but
do not race, the Hall of Fame may show results for you even though
you did not participate in the race.

2.12. Muliplayer racing not recommended when you choose the Compact
Install option.
If you chose the Compact option when you installed Monster Truck
Madness 2, multiplayer racing is not recommended. If you do
participate in multiplayer races with a Compact install, you
may experience degraded performance.

Video Cards with Known Issues
If you are using any of the video cards listed below, you may experience problems playing the games. Known workarounds, when available, are included below.

Issues with Motocross Madness
ASUS V6600 video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, some bike textures may disappear at various camera angles. Currently there is no workaround for this issue.

3D Blaster Savage 4 video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, some terrain textures will have a red tint at 1600x1200 resolution. To avoid this problem, run at a lower resolution.

Issues with Monster Truck Madness 2
Rage Fury Maxx video cards. When using this card on Windows ME, water textures don’t render properly. Currently there is no workaround for this issue.

ATI Rage II video cards (PCI). Vehicles in the preview pane don’t render properly when using this card on Windows 98 SE and your Windows display settings are at 32-bit color depth. To correct this problem, use 16-bit or lower color depth.

Accel GraphicsStar 2 video cards. Some textures don’t render properly when running with reflective textures option turned on. To avoid this problem, turn reflective textures off.

Truck Madness 2 disc in your CD-ROM drive in order to play the game\'s
opening movie, clip scenes, and the online Help movies. Ejecting
the disc while of any of these movies is playing may cause Monster Truck
Madness 2 to stop responding.

1.6. Long file names for Instant Replay files may result in
unsaved file.
If the total number of characters used for the complete Instant Replay
file name, including path, exceeds 200 characters, the file may not be
saved and no error message is displayed. To avoid the problem, limit
the number of characters used to name Instant Replay files to less than
200 characters.

1.7. Trouble completing Sidewinder Canyon and The Excavation tracks
with low transfer gear settings.
If you\'re having trouble making your jumps while racing the Sidewinder
Canyon rally track or the Excavation circuit track, try increasing your
transfer gear ratio. When racing these tracks with a low transfer gear
setting (800 or lower), you may not have enough launch speed to execute
the jumps successfully. Increasing your transfer gear ratio setting for
these tracks to 1600 or more should have you flying to the finish
line in no time.

1.8. Unusual weather effects when running in Software Only mode.
If you are running Monster Truck Madness 2 in Software Only mode
(Graphics Renderer list, Graphics command, Options menu), and
you select Weather options, including Snow or Rain, you may encounter
some strange weather as you\'re racing. For example, rain and snow may
be falling in tunnels and other covered areas.

1.9. Pressing buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously on your joystick or
race car controller changes view while racing.

simultaneously changes view while racing, regardless of how your
joystick or controller is configured. To avoid the problem, press
one button at a time on your joystick or controller.

1.10. Canceling intro movies using right mouse button causes
pop-up Help to be displayed.
If you cancel the intro movies as one is being played by pressing
the right mouse button, pop-up Help is displayed when you\'re
selecting a track. To avoid this problem, press ESC to cancel all
intro movies, or click the left-mouse button to cancel each intro
movie separately.

1.11. Changes to entry in Player Name box not being saved.
If you type a name in the Player Name box (Driver Check-in
screen), switch focus to another control, and then make a simple
change to the previously entered Player Name entry (i.e., changing
a character from lowercase to uppercase), your change may not be
saved when you switch focus to another control. To clear the
Player Name list and start fresh, delete the file player.pro from
the folder where you installed Monster Truck Madness 2.

If you press the ALT key while you are racing, the menu bar is displayed
and the game window goes black. To restore the game window, click the
left mouse button anywhere in the game window.

1.13. Computer-controlled trucks sometimes disappear and then
reappear while you\'re racing.
Depending on the game view you\'re driving in and your proximity to your
competitors, computer-controlled trucks may appear to disappear and
then reappear in a slightly different location when they are near
checkpoints. This behavior has no effect on the final results of
the race.

1.14. Menu options appear to be unavailable after multiple
menu selections.
If you are using Windows 98, and you select multiple menus, some menu
items may appear to be unavailable. Although a menu item may appear
grayed, it is still available.

Truck Madness 2.
If the menus at the top of the screen are not visible after you start
Monster Truck Madness 2, use the controls on your monitor to resize the
screen to display the menus.

1.17. Opening a saved Instant Replay file after completing a race erases
Instant Replay file for the race you just completed.
If you open a previously saved Instant Replay file after completing a
race, the Instant Replay file for the race you just completed is erased
because the saved file you opened fills the Instant Replay buffer. To
avoid this problem, open saved Instant Replay files before you start
racing or after you\'ve viewed the Instant Replay file for the most
recently completed race.

1.18. Cannot open Instant Replay or Saved Race files from Monster Truck
Madness Version 1 in Monster Truck Madness 2.
You cannot open Instant Replay or Saved Race files from Monster Truck
Madness Version 1 in Monster Truck Madness 2. If you attempt to do so,
your computer may stop responding, or an error message is displayed.
If an error message is displayed, do not click the Debug Information
button.

=======================================================================
2. Multiplayer Notes and Troubleshooting
=======================================================================
2.1. Pausing during race may result in misreporting of checkpoint
progress.
When participating in a multiplayer race, if one player is paused while
an opponent is driving through a checkpoint, the fact that the opponent
has driven through the checkpoint may not be reflected on the paused
player\'s machine, which may result in differing final results on
participants\' machines.

2.2. Long player names may overwrite displayed score during Summit
Rumbles.
If any participant enters/chooses a player name that is longer than
10 characters, and then starts a Summit Rumble multiplayer session,
the score displayed on the screen for that participant may be
overwritten by the player name. To avoid this problem, use only
player names that do not exceed 10 characters.

2.3. Dynamic scenery objects are not in-synch for all participants
in a multiplayer race.
If you are participating in a multiplayer race or Summit Rumble, you
may find that you and your opponents see and interact with different
dynamic scenery objects depending on your Scenery setting (Scenery
list box, Graphics command, Options menu). For example, if you have
your Scenery setting set to Complex (Slower), and you are racing
the Farm Road 29 circuit track, you may encounter and interact with
the moving train while your opponents see the effects of the train,
but not the train itself. To avoid this problem, make sure that
your graphics settings match those of your opponents before you
start a multiplayer race or Summit Rumble.

2.4. Host of Internet Gaming Zone multiplayer session should not
start race until Monster Truck Madness 2 has started on all
participants\' machines.
When hosting a multiplayer session via the Internet Gaming Zone, it\'s
important to make sure that Monster Truck Madness 2 has started on
all participants\' machines before the host clicks the Ready button
to start the multiplayer session. Otherwise, some participants may
be left out of the session, while others may see an error message.

2.5. Monster Demo not available during multiplayer sessions.
When you are participating in a multiplayer session, you cannot play
Monster Demo (Monster Demo button on Start screen). To play Monster
Demo, first disconnect from your multiplayer session (Disconnect
button on Multiplayer screen).

2.6. Accessing menus or right-clicking on-screen while a multiplayer
session is loading, or while results are calculating at the end of
a race, results in screen corruption.
If you attempt to access the menu bar or right-click on the screen
while a multiplayer session is loading or while results are being
calculated, the screen may be corrupted and the multiplayer session
may be interrupted.

2.7. If one participant has revealed the secret track, participants
who have not discovered it may encounter display irregularities.
During multiplayer sessions, if one participant has revealed the secret
track, participants who have not discovered it may encounter display
irregularities. To fix the problem, find the secret track!

2.8. New host in Zone session may encounter an error message.
During multiplayer sessions on the Internet Gaming Zone, if the
original host exits the session, the new host may encounter an
error message if he/she clicks the Ready button before the other
participants. To fix the problem, make sure the new host does not
click the Ready button until all other participants in the session
have done so.

2.9. Problems with text-based chat messages when using IPX Connection
for DirectPlay option.
When exchanging text-based chat messages during multiplayer sessions
when using the IPX Connection for DirectPlay option, you may
encounter problems, especially when sending and receiving messages
simultaneously.

2.10. Participants who join a multiplayer session that is already
in-progress may see inaccurate results on Hall of Fame screen.
If you join a multiplayer session that is already in-progress, you may
see inaccurate results displayed on the Hall of Fame screen at the
end of the session.

2.11. Hall of Fame may display results for participants who join a
multiplayer session already in-progress but do not race.
If you join a multiplayer session that is already in-progress, but
do not race, the Hall of Fame may show results for you even though
you did not participate in the race.

2.12. Muliplayer racing not recommended when you choose the Compact
Install option.
If you chose the Compact option when you installed Monster Truck
Madness 2, multiplayer racing is not recommended. If you do
participate in multiplayer races with a Compact install, you

Burn tread and smash bumpers with four different monster trucks (Executioner, Firestone Wilderness, Snake Bite and Stinger), across the down and dirty track Farm Road 29 (a circuit track).

Play it now for a bunch of mud-diggety fun!

It\'s here! More big bad fun, new tracks, and some stompin\' good fun.

There\'s a whole new mud bath waiting for you! The question is... ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE?!!

Monster Truck Madness 2 is the sequel to one of the best-selling auto-racing games for the PC, Monster Truck Madness.

Monster Truck Madness 2 combines outrageous attitude, unrestrained racing and real monster trucks to provide a fun and exhilarating off-road driving experience across rugged and challenging terrain.

Monster Truck Madness 2 adds new tracks and a bunch of new trucks, improved graphics and sound, and variable weather conditions.

For the more traditional drivers, there are also 11 original trucks from Monster Truck Madness including Bigfoot and Grave Digger.

The game seats players behind the steering wheel of the world\'s most powerful vehicles as they crush, splatter, jump and roll their way to victory.

Simply put, these is the best racing graphics I\'ve seen on a PC!
