Actually some like the v1.2 patch are necessary, since that is what everyone else is using. The only caveat with winvroc is/are: Last I heard, Nvidia cards can't have fsaa enabled and if you use a wheel profiler you must create a duplicate entry for GPLlaunch.exe dave henrie "PositiveG" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wC3S9.236490$[email hidden]...

OK, what about the "historical accuracy fixes", 16 bit textures, etc. Do these mess up WinVROC? I'm reinstalling as well. I'm also writing up the install for a web page too. "ymenard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:v54S9.503$[email hidden]...

A rec for a great add-on track would be Glacier International (if you can find it-if all links are broken then that's really a shame). A very long road course with turns of all kinds, lots of elevation changes, kewl scenery, and just heckuva fun to drive. For the newbies it also has braking point signs...
