OK, I 've downloaded the zips and put em in the snett directory. There seems to be *loads* more files than the other directories? Lots of MIPS etc. I've edited the ini files and triple checked them but I still get 'Cannot Load Track' :( What am I doing wrong? I've also got the 3do file in the snett directory. What am I missing? *help* -- Mike Buckley

Mike, Please be surwe you use a 32-bit un-zip program like Winzip 7.0 or something like that. Some of the files used at Snetterton got more than 8 caracter filenames, and old unzip programs dont like that! You can download a copy of Winzip from http://www.winzip.com I think. -- All the best, Ed Solheim The GPLEA Mike Buckley wrote: > OK, I 've downloaded the zips and put em in the snett directory.

Nothing wrong, Mike. It's just that the producers haven't used a DAT file to store everything in. It'll still work. :-) -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- Mike Buckley <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > OK, I 've downloaded the zips and put em in the snett directory.
