I recently bought SCGT, after hearing about it on this group. After a very short time playing it, I worked out that the most annoying part of the game happens when you place about half a tire off the track (OK I may exaggerate a little here, but not too much). The car is almost immediately grabbed and dragged off the track, and from there on you might as well be driving through quicksand. I know things are meant to slow down off-track, but surely not that much. Does anyone know of a patch or fix that will reduce this tendency? There is nothing on the EA site (OK, I know, it isn't the latest game out) that I can find, so I am hoping someone on this NG can help. Thanks, Tsunami
You need to look for a program called Advanced Options Editor it can be downloaded from the US Pits (http://www.theuspits.com/fbody/scgt/editors.html). You can then set the grass to be realistic. - Peter Ogden Perth, Western Australia "Tsunami" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Many thanks. I take it to use, you just extract it to the sports car GT folder, and run. Tsunami Once upon a time "Peter Ogden" <[email hidden]> scribed carefully:
