Hello, I got solitude and snetterton and I can't instal them, I unpacked the files in the directories I made into the tracks folder, I added the lines to the .ini files but they are still invisible when I launch GPL, as opposed to the noonan tracks (osring, imola, road atlanta and dubai) which install from the zip and work perfectly. What do I do wrong ? Would it be possible for GPLEA tracks release to come into a "noonan install" form ? Thx

Did you increase the number of tracks at the start of the ini files in the seasons directory? Bart Westra

Hi Bart Well, I unzipped the new GPLEA tracks into a 'temp' folder (one at a time), then ran the install file from there... ! Don't unzip them directly into the GPL tracks folder... the install.exe file will go look for your 'Sierra\GPL folder, confirm with you that it is correct, then finish the install. Worked for me ;-) The new tracks are really great... GPLEA have done a great job. Bit of a frame rate hit in places, but that's being very picky. Dave Hawnt - MARA Bart Westra wrote:

Did you edit the head of the .ini files that says how many events are in it? Alan [email hidden] http://www.chandler.u-net.com
