Barratt's Banshee - GPL Demo

by Neil Barrat » Thu, 07 Jan 1999 04:00:00

I cannot get the demo of GP Legends to work at all
I've tried both versions from mag cover disks

I have a P166 MMX 32Mb ram with a Maxi Gamer Phoenix 16Mb Banshee Board

All my other games work fine - I'm using DirectX 6 and the Guillemot driver
kit 1.03

I would welcome any suggestions?

Does it just dump you back to the desktop?  There's something about this in
the readme, I think.  I'm going from memory here and it was several months
ago, but I believe the readme mentions that you had to delete the gpl.ini or
gpl.cfg file and restart.  For what it's worth, I ran the GPL demo (both
Monza and Watkins Glen) on a P5-233MMX w/ Guillemot Phoenix PCI, so it will
run on a Banshee.

There are several different demo versions floating around, so that may be
causing problems.  I had problems with one of the Monza demos that
disappeared when I downloaded a different version.

I think some of the demo's installed two versions of GPL, (I think one
was in a temp directory while GPL sets itself up, but the program does
not delete it when its finished) so make sure you are trying to run
the *proper* GPL installation and not just the temporary one!!!!

But why bother with demo's, go out and buy the real thing man!!!!
