	Hi,
		could some cool person please mail me the directory structure for the Need for
SPeed Demo. The zip file i got from the ea site (nfsdemo.zip), hasnt been zipped properly. All the
files are in the main directory, not in there subdirectories where they are supposed to. 

					Thanx,
						Jason Piec (ea...@deakin.edu.au)

Hi,
I have downloaded the directory structure yesterday.  It was posted by
Allen Clarke however it wouldn't work for me -for some reason- so I've
change the begining of the batch file and it works just fine except I
can't get the joystick going, maybe you can figure it out.


Anyway, unzip your demo to any new directory you choose.  
Copy the batchfile below to that directory and the rest is history.

Thanks to Dusty Usner and Kal Wallner and Allen Clarke

To get the joystick working, goto options, then into controls setup, and
then use the space bar to toggle through the types of controls you wish to
use. Oh, but don't forget to calibrate the joystick first. Pressing ESC
during the calibration will DISABLE the joystick option.

Did you unzip the file with the "-d" parameter? If so, then that
sucks.
