I'm having a bit of a problem converting GPL tracks to NR2003. I recently redid the whole GPL install and added the various updates based on the directions that are found at Fred Faster's site. Each update works and looks excellent in GPL. However, when using the Dave Noonan converter, all APPEARS to go smoothly, but when I load NR2003 and try a track (I have done Monza and Monaco so far) I get a "Could Not Load Track" error. I have checked "copy GPL patch files" box to allow the use of the updated track gfx. Is there a known issue with some of the gfx updates? What could be causing the problems?

Just a hunch, there are several default setups for each Papyrus track. Go to a working track and copy the setup files and paste them into your new track. That 'may' help. dave henrie
Thanks for the suggestion, but that wasn't it. A straight, no frills conversion from GPL to NR2003 works fine, it's when the extra files are added to the mix that the error occurs.

Darus, I get the same results which is really a bummer as a lot of the add on graphics for GPL are really really good :/ "Darus" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Thanks for the suggestion, but that wasn't it. > > A straight, no frills conversion from GPL to NR2003 works fine, it's > when the extra files are added to the mix that the error occurs. >

I have a tech support question into DN and he said he will look into it. It's odd in that Kya, Mex,Mosport,Rouen,Silverstone,Spa Zandy and WG all work fine for me. I didn't try Nurby as I use the 1970 USPits version.
