Hi
I have installed the cars and 1st track for the upcoming Motorsport world cup. All was well until I installed the Porsche. It has taken over and I can't drive any other car unless I uninstall it! Any ideas?
Colin

Wow, that sounds odd  Still we've got until March 2014 to fix it. Have you unlocked all standard cars that come with GTL? |

Found this post and answer at Nogrip in the Mod install thread
QUESTION
I guess I am the only one having this particular problem. It happen with this mod and with the BMW 2800 mod too.
As soon as I install the mod, I can only drive in the 911 (the yellow one at the top). No matter which car I choose, whether it be a different 911 or any other car (like a ferrari), when the game loads, I am sitting the yellow 911!!
The same thing was happening with the BMW 2800 mod, I had to delete the mod to drive the other cars.
ANSWER
I must admit this is a new one for me.
Can you give me a bit more info?
Are you using a standard version of GTL or an unencrypted one?
Did you install the mods by dropping the GameData folder in to the GTL root C\GTL
Or did you install the folders manually.
Ether way is it possible that you placed them in the wrong spot? I have seen GameData folders placed in the team folders directly and cause some weird issues.
But I assume you have used other mods with no issues.
Does it happen every time?
And in race or practice mode?
If you are in race mode does the game load any other cars for the AI or just all 911S?
I wonder if the installer is bad?
I'll have to check this out tonight. Anyone else had this?

Thanks Tony - that's the one - the Yellow one!
I used the SRou installer and uninstaller. After removing it all was well, re-installed and the yellow git is back. I'll try 'installing' it to a new folder and put it in myself. See what occurs...same thing! Strange, can't see any other files that could cause this. One thing I noticed in the PLR file was that I had the Alfa GTA as the profile car, but the Porsche was always listed as the vehicle file and sim vehicle file.

Or try downloading fron Nogrip and installing it using the Mod's own zip file. http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=22746 |

For what it is worth, I've used 911 S no.84 and one each of the other cars in turn at Monaco 79 a few days ago. Just checked them out few mins ago at Mt Pan 67 and can drive all 5 cars OK.
Used the SROU installer in each case.
As to problem - pass

Hi Tony
Copied your PLR info, started GTL, went to Monza short in the Alfa - it was back!

Most odd.
