You have to edit your 67season.ini found in the "season" folder Add 1 to the total number of races (change to 12 if it says 11 and so on...) Example: [Season] name=All Tracks In Alphabetical Order year=1967 numEvents=17 Then add a new track below the rest like this: [Event17] name=San Marino Grand Prix shortname=Imola GP trackDirectory=imola month=9 day=22 numberOfLaps=65 startingGrid=4 I have no clue about the month/day parameters, but I guess it's for determining the sequence of races in a championship Mikkel Tony StewartNo20 <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Well now the track doesnt show up in GPL. :-(
Well I start the installer and nothing it acts like its installing. But then stuff begins to go bad. A couple of errors. this.3do cant..... Event.pbf not found. So then I say Oh well I can just make my own event.pbf So the installer is done. So I check every thing seeing if it installed ok. I check the seasons. I see Imola in there, so then I check the Imola folder. Theres NOTHING in there. sooo. What gives? ----------------------------------------------------------- Crystal Robbinson Webmaster of Http://Swtwok.00game.com

Extract the files to a temp directory first and then install from within the temp directory. Hope it works, Imola is a fantastic track!!

--Go into you existing directory and drag a box round all the files and change the group file attributes from 'read only' to 'archive' then try re-installing again cheers Dan Leach Tony StewartNo20 <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Well I start the installer and nothing it acts like its installing.

just do what the first guy said- unzip the files to a folder then install, dont try to run the .exe from within the zip, it won't work.
