GPL : Im looking for new tracks ( ...and cant find them! )

by Ozon » Sat, 05 Aug 2000 04:00:00

Hi!

I want to try Detroit, Toronto, Vancouver or so. I've already downloaded
Osring, Brands Hatch, and some ovals. I'm new to GPL ( 2 months of
practising : Rouen 1:58.17, Zandvoort 1:27.xx, so there is hope for me yet
! ). I wonder why I cant find these ones, am I missing something ? Any help
would be apreciated.

Sorry for my bad language ( its passive! )

The tracks are imported using the Dave Noonan's track converter. You also
need copies of the games you want to import the tracks from ie. N2, N3...

The fact is that they are tracks which have originally appeared in
other Papyrus games, but then specially converted to GPL. I assume,
though I'm by no means quite certain, that it would be illegal to
distribute them around the net even in their converted forms.

Detroit, Toronto and Vancouver are NASCAR or Indycar tracks that are
only available if you have those games already and youlso need to buy
the track converter from Dave Noonan at  http://www.sim-garage.co.uk/
Personally, I don't ink those tracks are as ood as the historically
correct ones like the original GPL tracks, Brands, Osring etc.
