when joining a game. hehe

HI all, I've just d'loaded netscape and joined vroc(setup and core.ini), but
when I go to join a race, I get my usual calibration screen, and the game
starts as if I weren't online at all, I pick a track, length of race,
blahblahblah.....I'm not actually joining curent races.When I click on
"join", I see "query xxxxx", followed by "joining xxxxrace" and then the
calibration screen. What should I be seeing, and any idea what I'm doing
wrong....I just started racing online on TEN, and if VROC is as good as
that, I gotta get hooked up....           Thanks, Ed

Make sure you have setup VROC properly...  ie..  the GPL directory is CORRECT
(default is c:\sierra\gpl)

make sure you click the little thing at the bottom and go from training or
single race to multiplayer and then in there click on the name that is in
the list at the top right of the screen and then click the green flag at the
bottom.  It should join then.  What do you mean your normal calibration
screen?  does it always give you a joystick calibration screen when you
start gpl?  Also no multiplayer gpl isnt as good as others.  The game is so
complex that current technology isnt good enough to provide good multiplayer
racing except if you have 2 fast conenctions conencting to each other.  Also
make sure you download from the VROC page or any other page, a good
core.ini.
