F1 99-02 Prototype-C patch

Has anyone had this problem with the patch? Prior to the patch I used to get a weird CTD that would bounce back into the game and not completely crash it. The screen would just temporarily minimize and then go back to full screen in about two seconds. Maybe I have the graphics set too high and have to fool around with it. After installing the patch that still happens, but less frequently. My real question has to do with the LeMans track after installing the patch. Before the patch, the track was great. After the patch the car drives under the hill on the back stretch instead of over it. Anyone else have that problem? I run it on a P4 using WinXP pro, a Radeon 9800 card and more than 1 gig of RAM.

Did you delete the hat file for LeMAns as stated in the readme? f1c\log\hat and delete the lemans.hat file. I haven't seen any of that crashing you talk about, I have a Radeon 9800 (non Pro) and use 12x10 with no FSAA. dave henrie

No problems here....and I have mirrors! Kevin (aka tlgtr) **** Zip slowly, medical statistics show that over 100,000 people are injured annually by their clothing.

Read the readme [wacking self in head]? Thanks, I'll give that hat file thing a shot. Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<[email hidden]>...
