Gentlemen, The Snetterton "patch" has now been posted at the GPLEA-site. This fix will; - add more flagpost - move the starter - change the grid layout to 2x2 for better and safer online races - fix collision plane problem on the brake-markers down the Home straight. - and last but not least.... add AI to Snetterton :) Please notice that you must also download a new snett.3do file, for the track aswell.. (READ the instructions carefully on the page!!!) To download the patch and/or Snetterton.... go here: http://www.gpl.netti.nu/snetterton/download/snettload.html Enjoy! -- All the best, Ed Solheim The GPLEA

Just because I'm a die-hard Nascar fan doesn't mean I don't enjoy the occasional romp in my championship-winning Brabham once in a while. :-) I like to stay relatively up to date on what's happening in GPL. My reflexes aren't what they were when I was racing GPL full-time, but I still manage a podium finish many times. Plus, it's a refreshing change from the warp-fest Nascar Racing 3 pickup races that are all too frequent on WON. I just wish someone (Dave Noonan?) would build a converter to make GPL tracks compatible with N3. N3 is in desperate need of more road courses (Spa, Silverstone, Monza, and the old Watkins Glen). I'd even give Nurburgring a try in a stock car if the track was available, but then, I'm a glutton for punishment. In article <8cq8jq$tas$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says...

Part of the confusion could be that huge.zip appears as large.zip until you try to download it, then when windows asks you where you would like to d/load it to, Large that you clicked on has suddenly become Huge<G> Just a comment not a winge.....

Hehe, that sounded a bit different when N3 came out, u were talking of "hating" open-wheel-racing and said u were doin it only cause of the superiour driving model GPL includes.

Hmmmm... I knew this would happen... :)) Along with the snett_update.zip file, you also need to download a new snett.3do file... (i.e Snett_huge.zip, snett_medium.zip or snett_small.zip) Ed Solheim The GPLEA

Snetterton has nothing to do with Mr. Noonan. And the GPLEA guys who created it acknowledged when they released the track that the AI were severely retarded. This is the fix. Kurt Arto Wikla wrote in message ...

You can find it it the Pits. I do know the original. And I do understand it needed a fix. But my question was about those two new AI's! Arto

The AI's in our update, got nothing to do with the AI's Dave made. However unlike Dave's AI-files [the ones he sent us before releasing it], our update will replace *all* the old lp-files, meaning the AI's will enter and exit the pits correctly etc. You also need the update if you want to fix the other issues we missed in the first version of the track. -- Ed Solheim The GPLEA Arto Wikla writes: > What is the relation of this AI to the AI provided by Dave Noonan > short time ago?

Thankyou for taking the time to carry on development of this fine circuit. I cannot tell you how much more pleasure I will get out of a decent AI.

I *do* hate open-wheel racing, but I also think that GPL is STILL the best sim available right now. If they ever catch Nascar racing up to the same level, I'd have to re-evaluate that claim. And no, there's no plans to re-start IGPS. :-) In article <8cs5ov$stk$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says...

Bruce, I leave that bit of judging to you guys.. :))) What I can say tho, is that the files in our patch is not the same David made. Our patch also include the rest of the lp-files as well as a track.ini tailored to suit. So the cars will bith exit and enter the pits correctly aswell.
