You're probably correct, Andrew.  It's a shame that it can't be modifed but
there we go....life isn't perfect after all! :-)

Oh, major bummer, Kurt!  I saw your name against the subject line and
thought, here's the man with the solution!  :-)

I really have no clue!?  my present sim wish is to go WC and F2 since that
Tasman thing didn't work out right...
Have messed with it for 2 hours today but no good...
No offense to the others but from where I stand it isn't possible to go full
WC with F2!

Lemme know if you work something out!
C'mon guys help us out here!

Oliver, I've come to the sad conclusion that NOBODY has successfully managed
to get their alter ego operating in F2 or F3 mode when running a WC, no
matter what they say.  Something in the GPL.exe file is
affecting/controlling this, not something in any of the .ini files.

Would be nice if someone from Papy posted some definitive info on the
subject.... maybe they scour the posts for an answer like the rest of us ;-)

I keep hoping that someone with a knowledge of HEX editing will be able to
fix it. Er.. .  .ahem, Please! pretty please.

Yes...that would be nice if someone with the required knowledge could have a
look at it.  Perhaps it's a ticklish job, though, rather than being
something basically simple (relatively speaking, of course!)
