Hi there! This is not a flame or anything... but when i visited The Sim Project i saw a note on the progress page about making GTP dashboard fro ICR2... theres also a preview pictue of the***bit.... the only problem is... That picture looks VERY much like the X-car***bit... In fact it's so alike that I'm "cheeky" enough to say thats it IS A SCREENSHOT taken from X-car!!! Any comments here guys? Again.. no flame... just wondering if you're really gonna make a GTP***bit or not...

No pranks - just slow! =P Yep, that's an X-Car dash, but the surrounding scenery is from ICR2-3D. I'm suprised you were so observant of where the dash graphics originated, yet missed the disclaimers of it being a mock-up.<g> The X-Car dash just happened to be handy, but was not intended to fool anyone. One of our members has been working *** a ROL-file converter, and the ROL.DAT is where most of the dash graphics are stored. I'm not sure, but he may include the converter in with the next WinMip update. Nonetheless, were still working on the dash (albeit at a snail's pace), and hope to have something for you soon. We'll also probably release the ROL converter the same time we release the new dash- graphics. =) Cheers! Marc
