Wehey,
Thanks Cabby. It works great now.
StSanta,
I'll give it a go although there are a lot of others far better qualified than me.
1), Install GPL
2), Go here
http://www.noctua.f2s.com/links.html 3), look in the "To do's if you're new to GPL"
4), Get the "Update to 1.2.0.1"
5), Get the "d3d Patch" (Unless you have 3dfx)
6), Apply the Update 1st then the patch
That's the end of the mandatory bits.
At your convenience get the "Disconnect fix" and the FFB wheel update for the "core.ini" (If you have an FFB Wheel). Finally trawl through the 3rd party tracks getting all you can manage, Le Mans 24hr & Milano are a must. Then go through a sequence of backing up and applying all the different combinations of car & scenery patches then restoring and trying another one until you find one you like. (Seriously these really bring the game upto date). Look here if you need convincing
http://jfcarsets.racesim.net/car_screenshots/bin/screenshots_v1.2/lotus_v2_g-shift/lotus_v2_g-shift_cockpit.jpg (Just compare this with the Lotus as supplied)
Finally get "winvroc" and ask someone more knowledgable than me to get it up and running.
Cya on the track
TTFN
