Also a track pack for the stock F1-2002 tracks.
Enjoy!

Hope it's more interesting than Assen for GPL. (The production values are
peachy, but the track's a bore.)

I had no problems downloading either Assen or the Simbin ISI-track
updates from wherever they were originally posted on a modem.
Ian, is there anywhere on the simbin forums that might point me in the
right direction for knowing which files should be in the ISI track
directories before I install the updates? I'm using the SLN updates
currently and need to prune all of the unnecessary files in order to
use the new .mas files.

Each slower than the others.

Actually, the Assen d/l went smoothly; it's the updated textures pack that's
driving me nuts. Just 2 URLs (and only one is listed): the first was
dreadfully slow and offered none but the oddball .rar file format. The
second (@ Blackhole) is a comfy .zip file, but my last attempt to d/l
yielded a thruput of 241 *bytes* (not Kb) per sec. I'll try again later -
the results definitely look worth the effort.
And I should take back my desultory comments abt. GPL's Assen. Carsten
Meurer's rendition is phenomenally well done, with some really nice touches
(both positive and *reverse* cambers on some corners - something rarely seen
before), and the track is commendably long (only 15 turns in 4.77 miles, so
it's the polar opposite of Mikki Maus), but the track is a little too
geometrical for my taste, with constant radii turns and few interesting
bumps or other anomalies. It looks like it would be perfect for Big Bikes.
Or--just maybe--GT cars.
Oh yeah, and BTW, there's another patch out for those of you Yanks who
wasted a coupla Dead Presidents on T.I.R.:
http://www.3dgamers.com/dl/games/totalimmracing/tirpatch_us.zip.html
(The latest Euro patch was issued abt. a week ago.)

I d/l'ed the texture pack yesterday (with a modem!) and also got
something between 0.9 - 1.5Kb/s at first. Then I fired up GetRight and
gave it some good'ol "download in 3 segments", and that brought the
total speed up to ~3.5Kb/s. With a faster connection you could
probably divide it in more segments and thus get higher speed. For
some reason the max speed per connection (segment) on that site seems
to be 1.5Kb/s... :/

I finally bit the bullet (or the byte) and d/l'd it: TEN FREAKIN' HOURS for
18 Mb. Haven't tried it yet, but it's hard to imagine any texture diddling
for a coupla tracks could be worth that. But...I *am* stubborn, and the
screenies *do* look delish.

the tracks are still the same tracks. What do you loose? Money? nope,
time? YUP! I don't think they tracks will be magically transformed, but
they do look better. if you are on dialup, use a dload manager, set it to
grab the stuff when you go to bed and let it run all night.
