Hi,
I've just ordered GPL and should get it in the next day or so. I was
wondering if there are any patches or add ons that I should get immediately?
If so, where can I find them?
Thanks,
Doug
Getting started advice for a new GPL owner
A new Grand Prix Legends buyer asked what patches and add-ons to install. Replies pointed to the official 1.2 patch, the unofficial D3D patch, link collections and Phil Lee's beginner's guide, along with advice to be patient.
Automated summary.
www.papy.com
Go for the patch, I believe it is 1.2, and if your running a GeForce card or
other d3d card, you'll want the d3d unofficial patch as well. Many other
goodies out there including track addons I'm sure others will point you too.

Some people do nothing wrong.
The problem is, they do nothing.
And THAT is wrong.

I've just noticed something else. I'm not seeing all of the
posts to this group. I'm missing some of the original posts. For example,
Don Burnette replied to my post but I didnt see it. I did see it included in
Doug Hook's reply. This happens quite a lot. What's up?

You might like to read an article I wrote at

Prix Legends".

I recommend the "patience" and "perseverance" addons:-)
When you first try GPL you will find it very hard to even do one lap.
Keep on practising though - it's really worth it and if you're anything
like me or many of the others on this group, you'll be driving GPL for
years to come.

Phil,

Just a change of header. He probably didn't know that for most of the
people it starts a new thread, as the posts in that original thread don't
appear anymore.

Yes, that's right, just a header-change. I don't know if some newsreader see
this as a new thread - my OE doesn't (yeah, beat me, beat me ;) ).
But I'll keep that in mind next time.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
