For Frank's enjoyment:

The ones denoted "sharper" has the edges sharpened in photoshop

Track textures are from the awesome SLN texture pack which every human
being should have downloaded by now.
Car textures are desaturated versions of those made by Simbin for GTR
and RH for F12k2.

You bastard. =)

The car textures are private since I've used the original SBDT and
Hummerich textures as the base.

Hmm, I cannot find a working download link on that site... can
you please send the complete URL? The part where it says
"download now" is just a link to the same document. 8-(

Beautiful stuff :) - You thought of asking permission to release these
redone textures from RH/SBDT?  If we wanted to do this ourselves, are
we talking a few hours in Photoshop, or what?

Scurrying off to the ISI editing forums...

For those photos all I did was export the textures in Mas Studio 2002
and then desaturate them across the board by 25%.  

I'm probably going to reinstall everything again soon and give it
another go since I'm not fully satisfied with the results, I was just
going for a quick fix.

Thanks Edward, that's the page I was talking about. Near the
bottom it has a link called "download here" pointing to

http://sln.m4d.sm/f1/tracks/trackpack.htm#

but that just points back to the same old page 8-( as can bee
seen from the URL).

Do you have the URL for the zip or exe file that I could use?
I'll try again with Mozilla 1.2.1 later, meanwhile thanks for
your help, mate.

Cheers,

Uwe

Uwe,

Try:

http://sln.m4d.sm/f1/tracks.htm

and click on "Full Track Pack" right under the main title ("Tracks"), *not*
at the bottom of the pg.

When I downloaded them it opened up another small window that had
links to multiple parts of an .ACE file.  Must be a browser thing -
I've been trying to switch to Mozilla and keep running into little
annoyances like this.

HTH,

      As far as I remember, the sln track update was broken into 3 or 4
parts.  You dload them all to the same folder and then run the exe file
which will then combine them into one large file.
   So when the window opens and presents 4 ace files...that's the track
update...those are the files you want.  Keep at it..

One more question - the SLN pack I downloaded mentioned changes to 3D
objects - did you just let the updates ditch the track changes in
GTR2002 (i.e. the changed adverts), or did you have to manually apply
the textures to the GTR tracks?
The combo of SLN, RH, and GTR updates is starting to get confusing!
I'm hoping I could start with fresh F12k2 install, apply SLN textures,
then RH's update pack, then install GTR2k2 - sound reasonable?

Thanks!
Kendt

I just let the SLN tracks overwrite the GTR2002 changes.  If you
wanted, you could export the FIA GT specific adverti***ts,
desaturate them a bit, and use them as well.
