GP2 97 Carset Problem

2 posts by 2 people · 06 Jan 1997 - 06 Jan 1997

I have a problem with v2.1 of the 97 carset.(p97cs21.zip) I can seem to install the carset OK, get the message at the end of install saying it was successful etc. But when I go to run the game I get the first screen saying QUICKRACE MAIN MENU When I click on the MAIN MENU button I get a very colorful flickering screen and then it either goes back to Win95, if I am running it from there, or it locks up if I am running it from DOS. I have tried it from a clean install of GP2, run once of course, and from other previously moderfied GP2's. Just can't get it to work. Am I doing anything wrong?? I got the earlier version v2.0 to work, but only from a clean GP2 install. Thanks in Advance Mike \\ ----- Web Advertising - http://ads.pcsa.net.au ----- // \\ ------ Homepage - http://www.lt.pcsa.net.au ------ // \\ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= //

You need to delete/rename your f1gstate.sav file in your gp2 directory, you might also need to do the same with the f1system.dat file. I had the same problem and this fixed it. You'll need to set your options again in gp2 though.
