All, I downloaded the 2 versions of Greenville Pickens some time back and have just tried to convert them to my N3 now that I finally found a copy of NLegends. The tracks come up but when I select "go to track" I get a message.."can't load complete track". Has anyone ran into this or have any ideas what I have done wrong????? Thanks in advance for your help!!! Jay

Usually it's one of two things. A. The track was never properly converted to D3d. Try resetting your video to software and see if it loads. If it does...you are probably sol for using it with 3d video. or: B. You didn't get any setups copied over. Take the setups from a similar N3 track (like Martinsville?) and copy all the .stg and .st1 files over to the Greenville folder. Goodluck dave henrie

Thanks for the advice, but I still seem to have problems.....1..I am running to video from the software because I have a Nvidia card and the game has never liked it. 2..When I look at the files in the game they do have stg. and st1. files in there.?????????? thanks Jay

Well you have more problems than just the track. Nvidia cards will run N3/Legends just fine. MadDAWG

So if you want the setups for Talladega, look in the folder N3\Tracks\Talledega there should be about 7 files that end with either of those two extentions. good luck... Your Nvidia card 'should' run N3 just fine in D3D mode, with the standard tracks that shipped with the sim. dave henrie
