SportsCar GT question.....

by Cary Martynui » Mon, 03 Jul 2000 04:00:00

    I have been playing alot of SPORTSCAR GT lately, and I am quite
impressed with it. However, I am wondering if there is any way that I
can set up the "Career Mode" so that i can race in the GTQ or GT3 series
but with ALL the tracks enabled? Right now if I use the "Career Mode" in
the GTQ or GT3 series, I am only able to race on a few tracks (if I am
in GTQ mode for example, I can only race on 3 tracks!!) and i would like
to be able to race in the GTQ/GT3 series in Career Mode with access to
ALL of the tracks!!

    Does anyone know whether or not this can be done? Thanks in advance
for any help you guys can give me!!

  have  you used the all tracks and all cars cheat code from the uspits.com?
  I don't know how it affects(effects?) the carreer mode, but to release all
the tracks, you type
isi-cheesman         this turns on cheatmode
isi-aardvark           money?
isi-tbone                unlocks all the cars & tracks
                             {or vice-versa with the 2nd line}

You'll need to edit the matrix file in the root directory.  Open it up with
wordpad and I think you'll be pleased.

Yeah, you have to enter some cheat codes.  You normally don't get the other
tracks until you win races/series.
My apologies that I don't actually KNOW the cheat codes to give you.

By any chance does this work with converted tracks like Silverstone and the
Carrera one?

Just open and edit with notepad your matrix file and, before the GTQ and GT3
sections,
simply add the tracks you want like they are presents in the GT1 section.
Analyse how the file is made and do the same for the sections you want to edit.
You can change too the points  after a race win or  everything else.

     Yes, you need to edit the matrix.mc file, which is in your dat folder.
Here are the steps:

1. The matrix.mc file is a zipped file. Just open it with winzip and extract
it to a temporary folder.
2. Now you may open matrix.mc with a text editor like Notepad.
3. Go down to the career season track info section.
4. You'll see that GTQ has only 3 races, while, for example, GT1 has 10.
5. It should be fairly obvious what needs to be done next. Just add your own
races. For example, I added the following line:

SPCAR_SEASON_GTQ    ="Desert Speedway/15/20/45/90"

    This adds the Desert Speedway race to the GTQ season. The numbers are
short, medium etc race durations (in minutes).

6. After completing your modifications to the matrix.mc file, place it back
in the dat folder, replacing the original one (back up the original one!)
There is no need to zip it up again.

    I am wondering if anyone knows whether or not there is a way in
SPORTSCAR GT that i can race on ALL the tracks from ANY class?

    For example, is there a way that i can race at Mosport while playing
the GT3 class career mode? Any help at all would be appreciated!

    Thanks guys!

  yes, you need to edit the matrix.mc file that is in your scgt\dat folder.
first backup matrix.mc and put the copy in a safe place
2nd, use winzip to unzip matrix.mc
3rd use notepad to edit matrix.mc and copy the line from
which ever group has mosport and place it with your gt3 group.  make sure to
leave a blank line between the borders and that your new mosport line
matches all the
other ones in your gt3 calendar.  You may need to change
the distance times after mosport...to match those in the gt3 group.
have fun

    You also need to use the cheats to unlock the tracks. Type isi-cheeseman
at the first screen. Then type isi-tbone at the second (career) screen.
