GPL 1.1 Honda/Cooper question

10 posts by 5 people · 09 Jul 1999 - 10 Jul 1999

I noticed that the Honda/Cooper patch I got from the Pits was a new GPL.EXE. So I obviously had to replace it to patch up to 1.1 My question is, is there a way to return to the Honda/Cooper?? The symbols are still showing Honda/Cooper though the wording is back to the old. Thanks, Scott -- Scott B. Husted PA-Scott on TEN G.T.S.

This problem also occurs with GPLSeason, the graphics change but the names remain as Coventry and Murasama as do the car names. Regards Gary Tall

not if you tell GPLSEason to patch the teams, otherwise it doesn't bother writing them
Download this: http://gpl.dlh.net/files/editors/GPLseas.ZIP Install it. Run it, set GPL directory. Select FILE, then LOAD FROM GPL. When it's finished, click the Teams tab, rename Cov and Mur to Coo and Hon etc etc, then click CONTROL tab, click the teams box. then select file - Patch GPL... Job done.
Cool. Now, where can I find the real team names and car models for Honda and Cooper, or could someone please post them. -- Best regards, Hena H?kk?nen Remove NOSPAM to email me! > Download this: > http://gpl.dlh.net/files/editors/GPLseas.ZIP > Install it. > Run it, set GPL directory. > Select FILE, then LOAD FROM GPL. > When it's finished, click the Teams tab, rename Cov and Mur to Coo and Hon > etc etc, then click CONTROL tab, click the teams box. > then select file - Patch GPL...

I was doing, GPLSeason no longer works with UK GPL 1.1 It won't even load details from GPL.EXE correctly now, did the Brabham Repco really have 753 valves in its V8 engine. Regards Gary >not if you tell GPLSEason to patch the teams, otherwise it doesn't bother >writing them
Also got the 753 valves on the US version. Nigel Patterson had a solution on another thread that also worked for me: "To use GPLSeason with GPL 1.1 do the following - a) Install the GPL 1.1 patch b) Start GPLSeason c) Choose Options... from the File menu d) Blank out the GPL Directory field and choose OK A message saying 'Couldn't open gpl.exe' will appear - choose OK e) Choose Options.. from the File menu again f) Enter your GPL directory into the GPL Directory fielld and choose OK The above procedure causes GPLSeason to re-search gpl.exe for the information it needs to change." Worked beautifully for him and me. Note also that GPLSeason will erase Andrew Olley's***pits, so you have to reinstall them after patching if you just let GPLSeason patch everything that comes with KOTR's set. Don't give me any credit- I'm just spreading the word. Jonathan Bishop

Not Not sure if this is the culprit or not- anyone else? Jonathan Bishop
