Are you kidding, I'm hoping for a V5 patch so GPL will run with FSAA
enabled on my 5500. Patch, patch! Don't ever stop patching, anything
you learn patching GPL can be used in the next 6 NASCAR titles! <G>

I followed the instructions, saw a brief DOS box flash, but there is no
"gpl.exe_save" anywhere on my hard drive.  What's up?

  I don't know the process used by Papyrus for this patch...I have to
say it suprised me to hear of it...but I think you have it backwards
Tracey.  N3 and NL just went through a very extensive open beta patching
process to improve many items, but chief amoung them was the mulitplayer
code.  I'm thinking N3 is the basis for this patch.  Eric?  Randy?

Yopu know something ymenard, there are about 20 people on r.a.s. who I'd

slamming me the past two years for saying that there were too many
disconnects in GPL online play.   :-P

Nice to see that they are patching it though.

Have you put it in the right directory?  It needs to be in the c:\sierra\gpl
or whereever you installed it.....I am just saying cause I did the same
thing at first (Duuh!!)

That really sucks hard... I tried downloading the file from the site myself
and applying it, all went fine... Maybe the file got screwed up during the
file transfer...

Nice one, Eldred! I hadn't thought of that when I sent the message.
Nice to know everyone's back - r.a.s. has been awfully quiet since the patch
was announced!

Tony
P.S. Not so long ago I couldn't get under 3:30 at Spa either. Now I want to
break 3:20

  (Grin) That's where I am at Spa these days - but it's tricky in the
Ferrari.  I like Spa because, being a slow witted type, I have a loooong
time to thing between corners.

I know I nailed the site as soon as I received email from the VROC-F2
mailing list notifying me of it's availability.  I thinks we all
nearly crashed their web server the way we jumped on it.  They
probably thought they were getting a "denial of service" attack at
first... <g>

Hope that gives them pause regarding just how many people still are
big fans of GPL.

<Depression OFF>
Oh frabjous day! I am not alone!

Oh, hang on. I don't "thing" between corners. No, I use the time to "think"
about the***-ups I've made at the next corner.

So I am alone after all.
