Please Help. Just bought GPL (boy is it frustrating trying to complete laps!), downloaded latest patch, running PIII 500MHz, TNT2 video. Racing Groove is greyed out in the options menu. Can't find any way to switch it on - how do I do that? Also, using MS SWFF wheel, yet can't feel FF. How do I switch that on? Thanks,
First, go to http://www.papy.com/gpl/download.html and download the 1.1 patch (for FF) and the OpenGL beta patch (for your TNT2 card - GPL only supports 3dfx and Rendition, so you currently run it in software mode - no racing groove and slow). When you have installed 1.1, there is a file called 'core.ini.sample' in your gpl folder. Rename it to 'core.ini' and open it in an editor. Change the line [ Joy ] allow_force_feedback = 0 ; Use FF if device has it to [ Joy ] allow_force_feedback = 1 ; Use FF if device has it Then you should get FF. Since I have a Vodoo 3 3000 card, I can't tell you how exactly the OpenGL patch works, but there are surely some TNT users in this NG, who can help you with that. Peter Vienna, Austria > Please Help.
