Greetings racing illuminati, After reading volumes of positive press on GPL I decided to track down a copy. Unfortunately, unless I am online the game/simulation will freeze up at the title screen. Nothing short of unpluging my computer will "unfreeze" it. I am currently using WindowsME (please refrain from any unsolicited "bashing" of my OS choice <G>) and have updated GPL to the latest version. I removed all online references in the "core.ini" and that has failed to fix the problem either. TIA for your assistance. Any help would be . . . well . . . helpful. Lance
Hi Lance, sounds like GPL is still looking for a modem. Have you really set the following parameters to 1? disable_ipx = 1 ; Disable IPX support disable_modem = 1 ; Don't look for/use modems Achim "Lance1965" <[email hidden]> escribi� en el mensaje news:[email hidden]... > Greetings racing illuminati, > > After reading volumes of positive press on GPL I decided to track down acopy. > Unfortunately, unless I am online the game/simulation will freeze up atthe > title screen.
