GPL: Using the original Ferrari sound for the Lotus

Hi all GPL fans, I've looked at Patrick's sound for GPL, but I still really like the original Ferrari sound, as raw as it is. Now I would like to use that sound for my Lotus (which I mostly drive). How would I do that? Thanks, Ruud van Gaal MarketGraph / MachTech: http://www.marketgraph.nl Art: http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery

aha!! well, just copy the FERRARI.WAV to another directory (leaving the original in the gpl/Sound directory... oh yeah, first unpack the sound.dat). also copy COSWorth.wav, but only if you want to go back to it. Then rename the copy of Ferrari.Wav to COSWORTH.wav and you're all set! Then move COSWORTH.DAT to the GPL/Sounds directory, overwriting the old one and you're done! Restart GPL and you've got a 12-cylinder sounding Lotus... -_dave

you dont need to pack it again ... putting the .WAV is enough :) McKafre Again
