Hi folks, I've installed SCGT and it ran fine. Then, after I exited, and re-ran it, I received an error message: "error opening options.mas file". Is there something I'm selecting in options that I shouldn't be? Only selecting the usual things: misc. graphics settings, controllers, etc. This happened first ater I had tried to installed the Hilly sound update, but even after uninstalling SCGT, running regclean, and reinstalling, it continues to happen. Any clues? thanks, David PS I posted an identical message to this one on the GT Insider page [link lost in import: /***.com/] ) in their Technical forum.

I got that error when trying to install the new cars. I just removed the files from the "patches" folder and it worked fine. You can try moving the files to a backup folder, so you can put them back if really needed. Jason.

Well, sure enough, soon as I took the trouble to post my query, the problem cleared itself up with no additional help from me. So, thanks to anyone who read this and mused on it.
