For someone new to GPL, the amount of information, setups, add-ons, and configurations that are available(and sometimes necessary) can be overwhelming. I am trying to come up with a detailed install guide with links to some of the best info and files, but I want to get some feedback from the community as to what are those "must-have" downloads and reading. Obviously, this has alot to do with personal preference and what you are wanting to get out of your own GPL experience, but I'm looking for general consensus. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Here are some examples of just a start: Car Sets and Sounds: 1) Nigel Pattison's GPL Season Utility ver 1.02 (Jan 6 1999) available from 4W-Drift([link lost in import] 2) Joe Lafrite's GPL 1967 Carset for "GPLSeason" ver 1.4 (Feb 16 1999) available from 4W-Drift([link lost in import] 3) Patrick's GPL Sounds (Feb 12 1999) available from Patrick's F1 Sounds(http://homepage.tinet.ie/~expatjen/gpl.htm [address restored] OR If you prefer 4) Nigel Pattison's Car Sound Utility ver 1.0 (Dec 31 1998) available from 4W-Drift([link lost in import] 5) Joe Lafrite (and Arne Martin Hanssen) Carsounds for "GPLSeason" ver 2.0 (Feb 19 1999) available from 4W-Drift([link lost in import] Graphics: 1) Matt Knutsen's 1967 Track and Program Updates available from The Art of Legends([link lost in import: /~kareknut/simrace1.htm] Setups: 1) Alison Hine's Murasama and Coventry Race Setups (Dec 5 1998 & Nov 17 1998) available from Eagle Woman's Grand Prix Legends (http://www.simracing.com/~alison/gpl/index.htm [address restored] 2) Doug Arnao's Setups (Oct 21 1998) available from Eagle Woman's Grand Prix Legends (http://www.simracing.com/~alison/gpl/index.htm [address restored] Required Reading: 1) GPL FAQ 2) GPL Online FAQ 3) GPL Hardware FAQ 4) GPL Reader FAQ 5) Steve Smith's Advanced Setup Guide 6) Alison's Setup Tips all available from Eagle Woman's Grand Prix Legends (http://www.simracing.com/~alison/gpl/index.htm [address restored] 7) VROC New Users Guide ([link lost in import] ([link lost in import] On-Line Files: 1) VROC software available from VROC: Virtual Racers' Online Connection ([link lost in import] Again, I'm sure I'm missing some important info or files, and I would love anyone's opionions and additions. Thanks in advance. Don Chapman
