I haven't been able to run a season due to the fact the game won't save. How do I make a completed race "save" itself that I can move on to the next race. I pull into the pits after the checker and wait for a while but that doesn't do it. I am really getting sick of Daytona due to this problem. The save button is "unhighlted" or inactvie when I hit ESC to get out of the car. When I hit "Done" the season won't progress to the finishing order and hence, the next race. Thanks in advance if someone can pinpoint the problemo.
are you running a championship season or just a single race? If it's a single race..there is NO points to save. You finish, drive to the pits, escape out of the car and start another event. dave henrie "Rush" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:YgZf8.28269$[email hidden]... > I haven't been able to run a season due to the fact the game won't save. > How do I make a completed race "save" itself that I can move on to thenext > race.

You don't have to save the race, it does it automatically when you leave the track. You should be able to do the next race in the calendar, upon returning to the champ screen. Rush wrote:

Please read the problem. I could not be more clear than I was. the bloody game won't save a race in Champ season. How hard is that to understand? "Philster" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

How rude... Read the bloody replies... you don't need to save the race to move to the next one...once you're done, you just "click on the done button" and the game will save the standings... don't understand your problem. I ran a simulated championship (first 5 races) and was able to move to the next one without a hitch. If you're looking to save a race that isn't finished, you'll be disappointed. There's no race save feature (single race and champ mode). As far as the "save button" goes (the one I think you refer to is in the left hand corner): it only saves the previous session position (i.e. qual). Papyrus has not included a save race feature in their last products, so there's no sense complaining about it. How hard is THAT to understand? Rush wrote: > > Please read the problem.

How hard is that to understand? You don't need to save anything. When the race is over, you get out of the car. When is says "Done" in green in the lower right corner, you click it- the results screen comes up, and you continue on to the next race. I just accelerated my way thru the first 9 races of a season(I don't race offline, so I had to test it somehow)and it worked fine. The save button is only used to save the qual results so you can quit and pick up from there.

May I suggest that you RTFM? Also, being a little more polite would take you a LONG ways. Ryan

Started a Championship season, ran the Daytona race, after the race was done went to my pit like all the other cars, and nothing happened. just sat there for a minute, and then pressed ESC and got out of the car. Pressed the DONE button (or was it CONTINUE? - can't remember - whatever option was in the lower right corner next to BACK), and no race results! Back to the race selection screen, and the results button for Daytona is still grayed out. Tried to start the next race anyway at Rockingham, but the game kept putting me back at Daytona in the Practice session, like I never ran the race. What a waste of a couple of hours! I agree with the original poster - there's either something wrong sometimes, or there's something we're missing. -- <remove 7of9 for e-mail replies> -- Bill Jones e-mail addresses: Computer Sciences Corp.

From reading some older posts, now it seems that some folks have seen theproblem when they saved the Qualifying results, left the game, and then came back and reloaded it in Championship Season mode. That's what I did - practiced and qualified yesterday, saved the results, came back today and reloaded the previous results to run the race, and then had the problem where it wouldn't save the race, and it's now making me run Daytona again... Is this a confirmed bug? -- <remove 7of9 for e-mail replies> -- Bill Jones e-mail addresses: Computer Sciences Corp.

For now, I run straight through. Practice, Qual, Race and everytime I see the save button in red, I mash it. So far, I have been able to progress. "Bill Jones" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:HV3h8.5740$[email hidden]...
