GP2JAM problem

3 posts by 3 people · 27 Aug 1996 - 29 Aug 1996

I have downloaded GP2JAM from Trevor Kellaway. I have downloaded the new 1996 carset (BMP's and names) from somewhere else. I have converted the BMPs to JAMs, copied them to the GP2/GAMEJAMS directory. I fire up GP2: the names are changed but the cars are not! I have the US v1.10b version of GP2, had a minimum install (JAMs are still on the HD after this install) and use the CD-ROM (it's not a cracked version!) Have emailed Trevor, but this was the first time that he saw this problem. Anyone has seen it besides me, or am I really this stupid? _____________________________________________________________________________ LaLa (Imre Olajos, Jr.) _/ean /\/\ichel _/arre and -=\/=- angelis fan WWW : [link lost in import: /~lala] | | |_/\_|_/\_ ~~ []/\() ~~~~~~~~~~~ "Music should be free." /Vangelis/ ~~~~~~~~ /~~\ /~~\

Don't you mean the JAMs are still on the CD with the minimum install? I use a minimum install on my hard drive and a full install on my Zip drive. I also have not gotten any JAM files, modified or otherwise, to read under mimimum installation, but they work fine on the full installation. Earl

I think you'll have to do at least a medium installation again: in my opinion, the type of installation determines where the game looks for it's files (circuits, graphics etc...) So the jams are still on the HD from a former medium or optimal installation, but since your most recent installation was a minimum one, the game just ignores them and looks for the files on the CD. I'm not sure, but I think it's a pretty good guess.
