GTR2 Tips & Tricks

[Simon Gymer]

but will i get kicked for cheating? and will i be able to get a rank using it ?

No it does not affect the physics or anything, it simply unlocks the tracks.
Yes, rank is completed unaware of unlocking tracks.

  how do you make a new file?all i can see is folder or am i being totally
put a folder into locald;c then gtr2 but it dont seem to work. totally new to this stuff 

[Iain]

make a new text document and rename it.

[Zacari]

Make sure to save it as 'all files' and not the default 'text documents' though, or your file extension will be meaningless

mANY THANKS GUYS I DO NOT KNOW HOW YOU FIND THIS STUFF OUT BUT PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE KEEP UP THE DAM GOOD WORK LOL

[longskater1969]

   Thanks to who ever came up with the all tracks fix for GTR2 is a good man i didnt quite understand it at first as i am a total noob

so if you are a total noob as well i have made life a lot easier goto this link and goto the
GTR2 folder and there you will find a prepared file you may download this and add it to the main GTR2 folder your GTR2 root dir

www.r-a-t-s.co.uk

Just tried it and it looks as if when you download it to your Desk top you have to remove the (.txt) fromthe end of the file name
then you drag on drop it in to the GTR2 Main Folder the same one as the game (.EXE)


i hope this help out i am a noob and could do with someone else doing this in future as it took me about 1 hr it should of took 1 min max lol
Ill Try And Add mods to this folder if i think they are worth it so keep your eyes on this space
also if you think there is something that should be on it let me know and ill add it
many thanks longskater1969 aka 28th CD Motorsport Demonic Dan

In case you don't read ALL the threads in here  ...

Apparently the wear units in GTL PD monitor, as well as the other PD monitors (GTR2 and GTR1) I've found out are in fact magic Simbin units, it's not a percentage.

We don't know what the max value is, but when it reaches 30 the pit crew call you in for worn tyres.

[mo]

dont know about GTR2, but in the original game pitcrew would also call me in when tyre wear reaches 30. The max wear figure in GTR1 is 60 iirc.

For the Endurance racer(s) offline.
As blimey doesn't cater for endurance racer like me
changeable weather is horrid if you need start the race with a wet setup
or with a dry one and weather changes, a setup which you have to keep for the rest of the race.. :'(

as one can't adjust neither wing  or tire pressure or change anything else then tires
here's a tip i have used in GTR as well now in GTR2
save game before you go to the pits, exit game and then move the desired setup to the
user save folder;
do rename it to:  "game you play".sve (see img.)
restart GTR2 reload game, drive to pit and you will now use the better setup

1.05 of GTR2 PD monitor. For running across network you can turn off the graphics on the server end so that that won't slow it down on your game PC...
