I'm having the same problems as below, any ideas? I think it might have something to do with the GDB files or something? thanks, James I've downloaded a couple of extra circuits for F1C but I can't see them in the game. I thought I just had to copy the relevant folders into the season data folder. I've also installed the demo V8 championship which shows no circuits at all but if I start a session I get into Silverstone. Also I can only see the F1C circuits in the ETCC mod even though I've put Bathurst and LeMans Night in. Anyone any ideas, I'm installing onto a second drive not using the default install folder. P4 3Ghz, ATI 9800 Pro and Win XP Pro. Andi. -- Remove only one zero to reply.

You have to edit the trackname.gdb for each track to include a proper filter. Near the top you will see a line that shows the tracks for 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002. You will have to also put on the same line the filter for the V8's (due to my recent hd replacement I don't have this on to verify the proper name) and another filter for etcc. The filter word for ETCC is etc03. To be honest I don't know if you must have a track in the ETCCseason\circuits folder or if you can place them in the main circuits folder and use the filter. dh
With ETCC Mod you use the Importing Tracks utility provided kindly by the makers of the mod. With others you just add the filter line... For example if it reads like this now 1999,2000,2001 you make it read 1999,2000,2001,AUSSIEV8 for the V8 mod If it reads 1999 AND 2000 AND 2001 you make it read 1999 AND 2000 AND 2001 AND AUSSIEV8 But ETCC Mod you dont touch it..you use the utility on the Menu AD
