Re: GPL - Add Ons?

Unless you've already got it then download patch v1.2 from www.papy.com I think it's also available from www.theuspits.com Take a look at the links section on the bottom of the also. Take a look at Alison Hine's site at http://www.simracing.com/alison/gpl/index.htm A good site for motivation is GPLRank , setup in the last few weeks which lists everyone's handicap compared to Papyrus' benchmark times . See the following http://newgplrank.schuerkamp.de/ Take a look at http://website.lineone.net/~richardn/ for advice on setups Welcome back and persevere Andrew Paul Jager <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:gK085.117$[email hidden]...

I suppose the number one add-on would be Dave Noonan's track converter, allowing you to convert tracks from ICR2, NASCAR 2, N1999, N3 and NASCAR Legends for use in GPL. Find it at the Pits site: http://www.theuspits.com/ -- don New Programmes for the Converted GPL Tracks http://www.ianparker1.freeserve.co.uk/gpl/index.html

I haven't played GPL for over year, but I'm going to give it another go (I must admit to finding it very, very difficult, even practising continually and using different set ups!). Could anyone guide me as to what add- ons I have missed, and should be downloading. Thanks PJ

Try some of the cars like the cooper or the honda. They are not as hard to drive. Brian Bowles "Paul Jager" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:gK085.117$[email hidden]...

The first add-on is not really an add-on at all. You should make sure you download the latest version of GPL from www.papy.com. The current version is 1.2. The next add-ons I would recommend are the excellent cars and tracks from the GPLEA. These can be found at www.gplea.org. They also have a fine set of sounds to improve on the sounds supplied with GPL. A new site only recently opened is the GPL Spares Factory at http://129.100.29.86/gpl/. They offer a line of replacement dashes. Additional dashes and cockpits can be found at Andrew Olley's site http://www.olley37.freeserve.co.uk/. Another new site offers replacements wheels. The GPL Tyre Barn can be found here http://members.fortunecity.com/nytehh/index.html A regular contributor here, Bruce Kennewell, has a site with replacement and additional program covers produced by another contributor, Don Hodgdon, here http://www2.tpg.com.au/users/brucek/hmrc/index.htm Another site with additional graphics is offered by Bill Tillman here http://gpl.ga-sports.com/legends.html Finally, if you want to particpate in on-line racing, the place to go is VROC which is found here http://gpl.gamestats.com/vroc/. You can download WinVROC and connect to a wonderful community of on-line racers. That should be enough to get you going. Cheers Phil

The best thing I did to improve my enjoyment of GPL, I mostly drive the ring, is to get Allison Hine's setups for the Coventry. Larry
