I downloaded a zipfile with all the '96 cars and used them to replaced the
team jams for gp2. Next thing I notice, the bodies of the cars are invisible!
I'm driving around and all I see is 4 tires and a helmet 2 feet off the
ground! Anybody know why?

Who ever did the car set didn't do the conversions correctly. You CANNOT
rename the jam files, ie. ferrari.jam to benetton.jam. The GP2JAM program
writes jam files with a specific id, depending on which car it is. GP2 when
reading the jam files, checks the name and the id of the jam file. If it
doesn't match, it doesn't load it. Hence the invisible cars.

If you like, I can upload my jam set in which the BMPs were switched around
to give a good representation of the 96 season. The BMPs are from PK. I can
also included the name file with it.
