Bremgarten is out!

http://drive.to/srcb There are four versions - light, medium, high and elite - for different levels of PC spec. The "elite" version apparently needs something like a new GeForce and an 800Mhz CPU... Haven't downloaded it yet - but this should be *fun*! -- David.

YOW! I managed to clock a 2:40 at crawling speeds, but the track is a sheer nightmare. Those bumps are just CRUEL. Monaco is a pool table compared to it. The first turn will cause unpreceded havoc in online races. The roads feel about half the width of Rouen. The runoff areas have been cunningly placed in dev/null. And I love every inch of it. Except... I downloaded, without a second of thought, the 'light' version for my 180mhz steam engine of a PC. The frame rate is OK except for one bit of the track: at about 5.5 kilometers (I think) there's a place where the track is flanked on both sides by a black-and-white fence. In that spot I get under 4.5 fps. Anyone else having trouble at that section? BTW: how come they named a curve after Maurice Trintignant? Wasn't he still alive and kicking and winning races in 1954? +Cinquo

Even more, it *IS* fun!! :) Fantastic track, a must-download. Andre

Hi there, I have found the pages relating to this new track and although the info there is very good there doesn't appear to be a link to download the track. I can't access the pits either at the moment so any help would be appreciated. HELP!! TIA PH On 15 Jan 2001 19:20:58 GMT, [email hidden] (David Buttery) wrote:

I'm having the same problem :-( It was available when I checked it from work this morning, but now the download buttons are gone and The Pits and GPLEA sites won't open! Hopefully it's just that there are a lot of folks downloading the track right now and it will be available later. -- don GPL Programs for the Converted Tracks: http://www.ianparker.co.uk/gpl/bapom/

Don, I just found that if you select the other link at the bottom of the page (EOCL - European Online Challenge League) you can egt it there. The site is not in English but it is easy to see what the files are. Cheers PH On Mon, 15 Jan 2001 17:01:40 -0800, "don hodgdon" <[email hidden]> wrote:
