GTR2 cheat for unlocking tracks?

Unlocking all GTR2 tracks with an empty file

Users shared that creating an empty SDNDTG.DYN file in the GTR2 folder unlocks all tracks and championships, similar to GT Legends' TG2001.DYN trick. They confirmed it did not cause online mismatches, and explained how to create the file.

I haven't seen it happen yet, but if it does.. simply remove the file and you will be back where you started. No harm, no foul. - Famous last words. ;) -- Scott B.

Please excuse my ignorance, but how does on do that? Just create an empty TXT documents and save it with that name, or is there more to it? Thanks!

Cars, the 2004 GP Circuits, and the official 2003/2004 FIA GT championships are not locked.. The things that can be unlocked via the Driving School (which is easy as hell, btw) are 2003 GP Circuits, "club" variations of some tracks, and special championships (Cup and club and 24 hour racing stuff basically).

> Does this work for the GT-L?? The file name for GTL is TG2001.DYN, unlike GTR2, after you create an empty file named TG2001.DYN, you have to create a new player to get everything unlocked.

Thans for the info. Will have to try it out this week-end.

Hey there guys, I would really aprecciate any help on how to make that file. Do you just make an empty file in notepad with that name? And where do you put it? In GTR folder or any of the subfolders? You can call me stupid, but it does not work for me... :banghead: Thank you for all your help, I really appreciate it. :) -- Gourmand ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gourmand's Profile: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/member.php?userid=478926 View this thread: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=624101 http://www.automotiveforums.com

Simplest way is; Open a command prompt CD to where you installed GTR2 type.. copy con SDNDTG.DYN Then hit ctrl-Z ...and you're done -- Cheers, Rod.
