Snetterton problem..

by Mike Barlo » Sat, 18 Mar 2000 04:00:00

    I'm all set up and ran a couple of hot laps and even saved a setup.
But, going to VROC...  All the snetterton's are (-snett),  I can't join at
all.  I don't even have it in the list of tracks to host with.  I tried
sellecting "sellect in GPL" and that worked, someone said they seen the
server.  I just can't join any. :(

    Any ideas at all?

    I backed up my GPL.exe and then re-installed GPL over the existing.  I
had to re-edit the season ini files but it worked.

    Resterted, and restarted, and restarted.  I even Rebooted, and Rebooted,
and Rebooted.  I went as far as getting rid of an oval track directory and
eliminating it from the the ini's. and even went as far as trying the
different 3DO's.  Nothing worked.   I copied and pasted the ini section
strait from the web page.  That had a couple of spaces in the wrong places.
I can't say that that was the problem but I fixed that right after I
re-installed GPL.

    I re-installed GPL over my original install, after backing up the
GPL.exe, so I never lost anything other then the list of add-on tracks in
the INI's.  easily fixed.

All you needed to do was restart WinVROC mike.

WV scans 67season.ini on startup and lists your tracks, if you install a new
track it won't know you have it until you restart it.
