Season 38 – 1967 F1 PRIVATEERS – Round 9 – Mount Panorama (Bathurst)

For the 9th race in the 1967 Grand Prix Works series,  we visit Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit Bathurst a motor racing track located in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia.
It is best known as the home of the Bathurst 12 Hour motor race, held each February, and the Bathurst 1000 motor race, held each October.
The track is 6.213 km (4 mi) long, and is technically a street circuit, as the circuit is a public road when no racing events are being run, and there are many residences which can only be accessed from the circuit.
The track is an unusual design by modern standards, with a 174-metre (570-foot) vertical difference between its highest and lowest points, and grades as steep as 1:6.13. From the start-finish line, the track can be viewed in three sections; the short pit straight and then a tight left turn into the long, steep Mountain straight; the tight, narrow section across the top of the mountain itself; and then the long, downhill section of Conrod Straight, and the turn back onto pit straight to complete the lap.

This has happened to me a few times. I don't know what causes it but I think a mouse click sorts it out (might be a tap on the space bar, I can't remember).

It is impossible for me to race without hearing the engine 

I've certainly lost sound when driving in the past (years ago). I found the same thing - clicking a mouse button brought the sound back.  Suspected it was AV notification/similar generated in the background, stealing focus although GPL was otherwise still running fine/accepting control inputs.

Pepe,

I know you are a very good and safe driver but you did 2 bad rejoins on track just when I was coming.

The 1st one occured during qually when you left the pits right in front of me trying to do a good time for the grid.
the 2nd one was very dangerous, it occured during the 1st lap of the race when you went out at the corkscrew and rejoined the track. I almost had to stop the car to avoid contact in such a dangerous place.

Are you using (and looking at) Pribluda ?

oups wrong thread

If you're playing the sound through a TV\monitor using a HDMI cable, that could be another cause. I lost engine sound to start the first race of the Works season. It was happening offline occasionally. I started using my headphones plugged into the 7.5 mm jack on the motherboard and I haven't had a problem since. I managed to finish the Works race without sound but I was lucky and slow and stayed away from other cars to do it.

Martin to get rid of pribluda just run the pribpatcher.exe in the gpl folder.

pribluda patches the gpl.exe, so you must run GEM+ first to get the gplc67.exe unpatched
