1.2 reverts to 1.1.0.3

I've installed the 1.2 patch for GPL but I found that Stewart's name and

face had been deleted. Damn!!! So I reinstalled the Stewart patch to put

his name and face into the game. I turned on GPL and, instead of showing

GPL 1.2, it had reverted to 1.1.0.3.
It's not a real problem getting it back to version 1.2 but then I lose
the Stewart info. Is there a newer patch for the 1.2 version that puts
Stewart's face in the game?
thanks
buzz

AFAIR it's enough to change the driver.ini (replacing e.g. Beltoise),
and to add a picture of Stewart (in the proper format).

Weird, the version number probably can't be juggled around with that
easily. In any case the Stewart patch you tried wasn't meant for 1.2.
Perhaps the patch is available for 1.2.

The reason it reverts is because it's all in the EXE...both the version and
the info.  I think you may be able to do it with a program called GPLSeason
or somethin, but I don't know much about it...

I use Stewart patch ver. 20 and it works fine for me, if you cant find it
anywhere on
the usual sites I can e-mail it to you (40KB).

This is what I'm trying to find out. Is there a patch for 1.2?

I had the same problem, but I found out, what mistake I made: I installed
the 1.2 patch over a "clean" 1.1 version (without any second party patches).
Then I put "my" car-folder with the patched cars inside gpl 1.2 and made the
test: Version 1.2.0.1.
Then I installed my first aid 2.0 patch, the test showed the old 1.1.0.3
version???

The mistake
was, that my first installation was not made over a complete gpl-folder,
there was the car-folder missing (I forgot to save it in that clean 1.1
security-folder, because I thought of changing the cars anyway).

I completed the clean security folder with the cars-folder from the original
gpl-CD and then patched it with 1.2 and firstaid 2.0 and carsound and brands
and dubai and the nascar-tracks-patch and now, all is working fine!!!!
 :-))))

Hope, it'll help

Try GPLSeason (>1.1).
