Can't Save Manual Transmission in F1RS!!!

I go into the options and set it to "Manual Transmission", then click OK and start the race........but after quitting the game and starting it again, it defaults back to the Automatic Transmission. How can I get it to save it? I tryed using the save button down in the bottom right corner, and enter a filename for the settings. But do I have to LOAD that file EVERY time I start the game for it to be manual transmission? Also, I have a slight problem with slow-down in the first corner because of all the cars being drawn, and I think I remember seeing a fix for this somewhere....something about going to the sound.cpa file and changing a couple of numbers or something? Anyone know about that? Thanks for any help! Aaron

If you use anything other than the "expert" settings and change modes after you change from auto to manual transmission, you'll have to change it back. If you don't change the mode, your settings WILL be saved between sessions. For instance, if you're playing single races on the "amateur" level and have your transmission set to manual, if you quit and restart the game, playing single races on "amateur" level again, your settings should remain the same. BTW, there IS a hot key for Auto/Manual transmission, so you shouldn't have to enter the menus to change. Jerry Morelock >I go into the options and set it to "Manual Transmission", then click OK and

To save a Configuration you have to click on the little symbol that looks like a floppy disk. -- Regards, --- Bruce. The Grand Prix Legends Historic Motor Racing Club:- http://www.netspeed.com.au/brucek/legends/
