Thanks Erling. Seems the problem is just with the newbie then. Any thought's anyone?
I see the car choice still shows the AMV8 cars, not the Griffith or Elan, but this shouldn't stop you from at least joining the server. I have joined with no problems. I think the AMV8 cars are showing as they are on your PC. I only see Lotus and TVR. |

I did come out and start it again just using Lotus and TVR. It's a little strange though. Does it matter I am using Steam?

Other drivers here use the Steam download and Matt provides a backup race server so I don't think that's a problem tho?
I'm off to the dentist now but at least I have something to think over whilst my treatment takes place.

I have moved my GTL folder to C: now instead of the system directory. I can join other tracks online just not oulton. Maybe I could get a list of all the exact files in the Oulton folder from someone and sizes!? or maybe even a zipped exact copy to transfer to my pc?  |

I have had several installations of GTL in Win7. Because of us using different lobby servers in the past, I am
currently running a steam downloaded version with no issues at all. I can stick any directories
or files you want on my little ftp server if needed. Just PM me.
And I can join the Normal, and my test server with these cars no problems

I have just rebooted my router and my connection is back to normal. Just downloaded Oulton from Altbierbude. I will try to join again.

Must be something to do with online settings. I can play OultonIsland offline no problems at all, just that it says "Cannot join game - Track Not Installed" when I try and join online. Maybe I will leave this round and start next week

Have you set GTL to run as admin yet?

I had a problem message saying mismatch when I joined for the same reason as Coyote to see if I had the correct track. I found it was due to a differently named Oulton folder containing what seemed to be exactly the same track. When I deleted this the newly installed download worked fine. As the problem seems to be track related it may be worth checking that you don’t have another version of the track installed. If so try deleting all Oulton folders and reinstall the SimRacing.org.uk file from their link. |

Back to using a Driving Force GT as G27 went up in smoke yesterday, one upside got plenty of buttons to play with and a sequential shifter, just got to set it up and get used to.
Poss help with Oulton Park is there a nvidia adjustment to get read of the Psychedelic effect the horizontal railings are giving me or is that norm for this track?
