I've just tried this with no problems with the sky, tried reloading, using different track and reloading etc. Graphics were fine. However the first time I tried the game the ESC key wouldn't work and the only way I could get back to the garage was by driving backwards until DQ'ed ESC continued to be broken, I tried GTR too, and I had to reboot to get it to work again, 2nd time round everything was fine. No idea what's been going on there Nvidea gfx here, if it makes any difference

*BUMP*
Can anyone that has 5 minutes spare time try this track out and see if they have any problems. The more testers the better.
Thanks.
Well i HAVEN'T specifically ran a private test session but ive playing it allot online of late...so thats the closest to what we'll be running on thursday. Havnt encountered a single problem myself and ive asked those i raced with to report any as well, specifically the sky texture issues. None of late. Did pit stop tests, suspicious cut warnings test and its ok...only problem is that nasty bump leading onto the back straight that throes the panty into the wall if u dont lift slightly I have found a texture update on no-grip ( http://www.no-grip.net/index.php?categoryid=2&filenr=1131),...not sure if it includes a sky texture but worth a try LeH. Also Mr troublesome LeH, what gfx card/model u running..and i assume/hope ur gfx drivers are up to date ofc

I've tried it and get awful FPS just driving the track in a private test session. God knows what it'll be like in a race.

Hi Shark
Had no trouble with this track so far
But can someone tell me why I have to prat about with my steering wheel every time I change car or track. It's annoying me now as it does most Thursdays
Kind Regards

When you say prat about, do you mean, GTL "loses" your wheel? I get that nearly all the time in GTL. When I first connect into a game, it's lost my wheel, so I have to go into the menus and lower FF to High then put it back to Full. This cures it and I carry on. Very very annoying.

That texturefix was the first thing I tired, when I saw the problems with the track, unfortunately it didn't help (and the normal textures are far prettier imho btw). I have a nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra with latest drivers (91.31). According to the RSCnet thread, the problems occure as well with nVidia as also with ATI cards, so I would assume that its rather not a driver problem. But like I said, I have tinkered a lot with it and can now work around the issues with the track, tho its a bit annoying. Apart from the technical issues, I really love it the more I drive it, and I'm starting to think I would be sad to not drive it next race. ** edit ** 91.47 nVidia drivers have been released on Thursday. Maybe I'll give these a try.

Yes Shark thats it.
Was hoping you young uns would tell me I'd missed something dead easy, snigger at me for being an old fart then reveal the solution. I think thats in the same category as this Michelle Pfieffer day dream I keep having. Ah well. Over here Michelle

Curiously, the fix for that is to fiddle with your wheel while the track is loading. Put your feet on the pedals and move them about a bit, and the steering wheel too. Since I started doing that as a 'routine', GTL hasn't lost my wheel once!

Either extract the files into your GTL install directory or use ModMan as this is a modman compatible file

1p, you should just be able to extract it to your game root directory ie c:\gtl and it should install the team files to their proper sub directories. SHark, i tested the track and it was fine, no problems at all. Tried practise, qually and race seshs and tried pitting, all fine. Even the AI had no problem racing it and took decent lines thru corners etc. Nice track by the way, will suit the more leggy cars and would be great in GTR2
