Without the fix, if you cross the start line (where the green lights on the gantry are) on the extreme right of the pit lane during a race you'll see it doesn't tick over to a new lap. With the fix it will. Not sure exactly what the HAT file stores but the installation instructions say delete it to be on the safe side; I did and it worked so I'm sticking with that advice.

Update: the fix is definitely needed but if you don't install it you will still be able to race. However, you risk having one or more laps not counted if you have to pit during the race, and I may elect not to correct the results if I see evidence that you did not install the fix.

Extract the Gamedata folder of the zip, into the main GTR2 dir.

Yep, or simply go into the new GameData which is inside the Barcelona folder, navigate down until you find the xfinish.gmt file, and move it back up into the original Barcelona folder (and similarly for the Zhuhai one).

This way, after i check the USERDATA\LOG\HAT folder, isnt there any new HAT file BTW how many HAT files are in USERDATA\LOG\HAT folder for each track? Now that i put the original files again in their places, i see 2 barc. hat files and 1 zuhai hat file. Did i screw the all game? Do i get my 50 kg hammer? Do i kill myself? Thanks for your time

This way, after i check the USERDATA\LOG\HAT folder, isnt there any new HAT file The game regenerates the file after you drive the track. The HAT file isn't supplied in the patch, GTR2 will recreate it the first time you drive the track. BTW how many HAT files are in USERDATA\LOG\HAT folder for each track? Now that i put the original files again in their places, i see 2 barc. hat files and 1 zuhai hat file. Did i screw the all game? Do i get my 50 kg hammer? Do i kill myself? Thanks for your time There's one HAT file for each variation of each track that you've driven. Barcelona has two layouts (2003 and North) which is why it has two HAT files. Zhuhai only has one.

Not loaded the fix yet, but I've realised I'm double booked for Tuesday. It's the Mrs's work Xmas do. Bit gutted really, but I'll be back for the Endurance.
