Season 26 Friday Mixed Trophy, Round 29 + 30, Oulton Park

We enjoy driving the 1967 version of the track which flows majestically through tree lined avenues, up steep hills, round double apex corners and banked hairpins.  There has never been a round of the Formula 1 World Championship held at Oulton Park but there were a lot of non-championship Formula 1 races held there between 1954 and 1982.

Can't get Oulton track to load up for either the F2 or 69X mods  :-\

And I have idea what the problem could be  ::)

just tried 65 & 67 F1  same result , whichever mod I select the game defaults to VIR and Oulton Park isn't listed in game though it is listed in GPL Fastest Laps folder  !

any ideas gratefully received  :stupid:

Hi there,

don´t know the right place for this post. So I try it here: Is somebody here living in the area around Lancashire, Southport, Banks? Need parts for a Lotus Europa, but get no answer on my emails and when I phone there it says like: "The number you have dialed is no more available." ?
Hope some1 here have a hint for me...

Andreas

Any error message? are you using gem?
Force the issue, take VIR out of the season  :-\,

Bernie I think it is related to a messed season.ini  ::)

Look in GEM wich **season is used for the mod. Then open the **season.ini and have a look into it.

GEM often mixes the data of the tracks when you sort them by directory!
If you find strange combinations just delete the file, restore the "preGEM" .ini and add the track again.

I just rang Richard at Banks Europa and spoke to him, he says he has not had any problem with telephone calls .

perhaps you have the wrong number or dial code ?

where are you phoning from ?

Sorted thanks Cooki  :)

Wow, that are news I was hoping on. I dialled on the number on his homepage. Before I wrote 2 Emails on the 2 different addresses that I know, without reply. Can you please be so kind to call him again and tell him about that Andreas from Germany want to contact him? Hope he recognized me, I bought around last Christmas a x-flow manifold for an Europa S2. My Email is still: [email protected] . Hope it works, thank you so far!
Edit: Richard replied on my Email-Adress  now. Thanks again, Bernie!

Reposted due to locatory glitch.  ::)

There were few racers on IGOR at Oulton, so I grabbed a spare Mclaren and hit F2.  Spent most of the race tied to David's Coop.  This was not unpleasant, except when his gearbox got in my way, so well worth the outing for an inning.

Lucky with the setup for race 2, I outgunned Mark to lead the 1st lap, but came across a looming obstacle when the Internet got in my way.  This caused The car to jerk along, unpleasantly.  F2's have lighter graphics, so weren't too bad.  69's were a prob. and became worse - the glitching was serious so I decided to scratch, after several unplanned excursions into the undergrowth.

It's likely I'll ration race outings until a solution is found.  Driving by guesswork is possible, but may interfere with competitors less graphically challenged.  Undecided

Sorry guys but...I think someone should have to say which car we will have to choose the next race !

Also, none added a replay file for previous Oulton races of this serie, why ?

Sergio the replays are allways here (ftp://ukgpl3.dyndns.org/Replays/Archive/Season26/Friday/)  ;)
