I'm having trouble getting the 'season 67' patches installed, I'm starting from scratch and installing everything - GPL Season 1.34, Bugatti and new track.ini, the new BRM, Ferrari and Brabham cars, the 67 patch itself, etc etc. Done everything in the readmes to the letter. Problem is that when I'm finished, I get 'Can't load track, canceling weekend' errors. These errors go away if I select all the options in the GPL Season "Control' tab - both 'contains' and 'patch' - for the Lo67seasonfix file before patching ('car directories', 'sound directory' and 'track directories' are initially unchecked), but the new car files then seem to be erased and replaced with the original ones. So - is there some magic combination of selections I need to make in GPL Season to get both the tracks and the new cars working correctly?

If you get 'can't load track' on all the tracks then it's a problem with one of the car folders. If it's only on one or two tracks then it's a problem with the track folder. Sounds like a car folder problem. Rename the BRM, Brab and Ferrari folders in turn and copy over the originals from the CD. That way you can work out which one is causing the problem. Then copy files one at a time or in small batches until to find the offending file (usually the car 3do in my experience. Try downloading it again. and it should be ok. Kev
