Car Logo Differences#
934 TIM files are found in this build's carlogo directory, with 500 of them remaining unchanged from previous demos.
Compared to Final#
Four new graphics correspond to cars not present in the final product. Similarly to m2m4n (first found in the August 30 demo), gv3cn is not defined in .carinfo or even has placeholder model files present in carobj, with the logo being its only surviving evidence.
