Only one thing wrong with these files... We will have to use an external program to put them together then decompress them. I'd suggest ZIPping them and then posting. As it stands now I see thirty posts with nothing but *(^*&%$*^(&*%&%$)&*^*(_(* In them. Mike Barlow

You have to combine and decode the files. The files are in two parts. Download both, then if you have Outlook Express highlight both (1 of 2 and 2 of 2) headers. Open the Message menu box. The last selection is "Combine and Decode . . ." Click on that. Both headers should be listed in order--if they're not place them in the correct order. Finish the procedure. You now have an honest to goodsness zip file ready for saving. Click on "File", then save attachment. Other newsreaders should have a similar utitlity. BTW, thanks for the files rrevved. They're quite good. Jerry Morelock

You want to email it to me and I will put it on my page for all to d/l, as I do not get the binaries groups. SLG

Is it my imagination or is the Repco sound an identical file of the Weslake sound? % >This soundpack replaces the sounds for these engines: % > % >BRM/LOTUS/COVENTRY/MURASAMA/HONDA/BRABHAM % oops! Either the Murasama OR Honda, take your pick.. :) % Also, the Eagle is (naturally) included. Damn, this deafness % is causing long-term loss of short-term memory.. hehe. % One other thing. I have finally found a Ferrari sound I can live % with, so I included it and rezipped the whole thing, so get this one: % GPL-REV2.ZIP [ 704,923 bytes ] has been posted to: % alt.binaries.simulators.autos % alt.binaries.misc % alt.binaries.test % Crank 'em up! % -- % // rrevved posts from mindspring dot com -- **************************** Michael E.

rrevved, I'm really glad you added the Ferrari sound to your files. I swear I've improved my best Ferrari times in two of the four tracks I've run since loading your sounds! Of course I never ran the Ferrari that much before with the original sound, because frankly, I couldn't stand to listen to it. (He says, as he ducks for cover. OUCH! <g>) Great job and much appreciated. Jerry Morelock

I had a look on all three newsgroups below, but I can't seem to find it. Is there a web page I can download it from? Thanks. BM
