That's right. And to make GPL demo work with Win98 do the following:
1. Unpack the gpldemo.exe to c:\gpl using winzip. (Dont run the file)
2. Copy wininet.dll from c:\gpl to c:\gpl\program
3. Make c:\gpl\program\controls directory
4. Start the game, calibrate your joystick, and set your graphic,
controller,
and audio options. Quit the game *before* going to the screen where
the car is on the track.
5. Copy options.ini from c:\gpl\program\controls to c:\gpl\program
6. Make c:\gpl\program\options.ini not read only (uncheck in properties)
7. edit c:\gpl\program\options.ini to read:
[ Graphic Options ]
lastRasterizerDLL = rast3dfx.dll ; Last rasterizer DLL used
[ Driving Resolution ]
height = 768 ; Resolution height of the driving
screen
width = 1024 ; Resolution width of the driving
screen
Substitute rast3dfx.dll (for 3dfx) with renddll.dll or softdll.dll as
appropriate (for rendition or software)
Enter resolution as appropriate (e.g. 480x640)
8. Make c:\gpl\program\options.ini read only.
9. Start the game.
