OK I have been racing with GPL for around 2 years and have just rebuilt my system. I have installed my favorite tracks (27 of them and they are reflected in the 67season config file contained in the Seasons directory). However when I launch the game to race I only see 5 tracks. I have read and re-read the 67seasons file and cannot figure out what is wrong. Below is the text from my file : What have I done wrong ??

The extra blank row in Event1 and Event2 might have something to do with this. In my 67season.ini no EventX section has a blank row inside it. "Braddo" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9gbli1$b8no$[email hidden]...

Good spot Rob - I removed those two spaces - actually they appear as solid black spots in the ini file. I removed them but still the game only sees the following tracks (from 11 to 11. Dutch GP - Zandvoort 12. Swedish GP - Anderstorp 13. Brands Hatch 14. Bern 15. Circuit Bugatti 16. Cystal Bucatti 17. Goodwood BINGO I have Dutch GP listed twice also as track 18 infinite loop - removed the duplicate and all is OK Thanks Brad "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:qUcW6.12387$[email hidden]... > The extra blank row in Event1 and Event2 might have something to do with > this.
