Does anyone know if.......... Although many of the add-on tracks appear to be modelled from the ground up, I notice that some tracks are conversions from other sims eg codemasters Race Driver One of the tracks I have d'loaded is the Gold Coast Indy track. This appears to be an adaption from an earlier title (Race Driver) I believe. My question is if that is true, can the circuits be lifted off the latest version Race Driver 2? and just replaced into the circuts folder? I would try, but I have fiddled with these add-on's now for week and got the desired outcome. i would flip if I messed it all up now. I not I would love to see if someone can manage it so that we can race the V8 mod on the later version which is a far more realistic representation of the circut. tia Glenn

There is quite a-bit more to converting the tracks than just moving from one sim's folders to another. You have to deconstruct the track with a 3d program and then re-order/re-label everything so it matches the new format. Some utils help in this project but it is a very time intensive procedure. Well above my head. dave henrie
