SCGT Problems

I'm experiencing problems with significant frame rate slow down in qualifying. Also I have problems with a 911GT included with the 1999 ALMS floating in mid air. I've reinstalled SCGT 1.52, applied the 1.551 patch, then installed the 1999 ALMS carset and the AllDash patch. Listed below is my current system config: AMD K6/350 128MB ram, 3DFX Voodoo 3/3000, Win 98, DirectX 7.0a, Logitech Wingman Formula Any help would greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Problem with the cars flying is the file. I had some problems when I was messing with Veh files and somehow had a car that would do these triples and quads that would leave a figure skater in awe. I deleted the car and reworked the file and its fine now. I am not sure why it did it since I am only learning to work with the veh files to make a bit more realistic car files. > AMD K6/350 128MB ram, 3DFX Voodoo 3/3000, Win 98, DirectX 7.0a, Logitech > Wingman Formula > Any help would greatly appreciated.

I am running a P2 400 now, but my P233 did it really bad. Dave

Find the problematic car (I found it easily using the driver name, then the `search' function of win98 - *.veh containg the text "driver name", then delete its .veh file or download a new, stand alone. I am sorry, I dont remember what car it is (I reckon it is a GT3-R), but you should be able to find it. About the frame rate problem: it is a very well known issue of SCGT. Somehow, the frame rate isn't stable under Qualif. Probably due to the fact that all the cars are on the track at the same moment, but are invisible to the eye of the player (unless you use the ext. camera view(3), then switch car view (using 'B'). When you reach an'invisible' car, it seems the game 'draws' it, the make it invisible again... I don't know if you catch the figure, but that is the best way I can explain it (English is not my mother tongue). How to remedy: you made all you can: the 1.155151115551111555551111 patch was supposed to tackle this issue, but failed to do a reasonnable work-around to it. So we are stuck with it... Sadly enough... Happy qualif anyway! TIP: Do loooong races, you'll have plenty of time to come back from the end of the pack! > Problem with the cars flying is the file.

Thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it. Ivan
