Hard drive crash(120GB) - lost *everything*, dammit. >:-( I"m trying to rebuild GPL for a league race tonight. I had a different skid sound than the default, but I can't remember where I got it. It *doesn't* require any utilities to load. Help! Eldred -- "A voice from the crowd: Right, everyone out of my garden. I've had enough of this!"

I found that one earlier. No, that wasn't it. It was a lower pitched .wav. Thanks, though. Eldred -- "A voice from the crowd: Right, everyone out of my garden. I've had enough of this!" Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett GPLRank -2.4 N2k3 rank ? Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.
Eldred, I think you are referring to a set of "effects" sounds I originally did for GPL a couple of years ago (or longer). It included new skid sounds (lower tone), tub/chassis sounds, wind, etc. This was at one time on the "High Gear" website for download and remained there for a long time (might still be there...I haven't been to High Gear in a long time). I know this sound package for GPL was very widely used and I think it was primarily because of the more realistic skid/tire sounds. If you still haven't found the skid sound you lost....email me and I will put it up on my website and you can download it from there. I also had a system crash a while back and while I still have the GPL sounds I created (but GPL is not currently installed)....it is in the full GPL sound.dat file and that's about 1.6 megs....otherwise I would just email it to you. I know at one time Eagle Woman loved this GPL sound pack and used it exclusively....so this might be what you had? Regards, Tom

Thanks, Tom - I found it. I downloaded from several sites before I 'auditioned' them, so I can't even tell you where I got it from, now... It wasn't yours(too deep) or Alison's(too high).. And, I finished 2nd in that league race I was thrashing around for...<g> Eldred -- "A voice from the crowd: Right, everyone out of my garden. I've had enough of this!"
