Right, i've got my new PC, and its up and running. First thing i do? Get this god of a game working. I had forgotten just how fantastic it really was! I got all the patches i needed from http://www.bhmotorsports.com/GPL/downloads and have been playing it endlessly. Does anyone have this game working? Is it worth doing a challenge kind of thing with it? Like the GT and Forza ones running? I may not reply to this thread for a while, going to play this game some more!

I tried installing my copy on this system, but it did not work. In a few days I'll be building up a new system and will give it another shot.

ADvance notice on patches. Which ones are you going to want us to have before coming on-line ? If you give a simple list then there won't be any delays for anyone joining in.

Well, i have the GPL 1.2 patch, the CPU speed fix, the disconnect fix and the direct 3d patch. So you can see the resolution i can run at from my screenshots, its quite high which is very good with no slowdown.

Or go to the website i linked to and download them all, they are all under a megabyte, i think??? Go to 'Patches' on the download screen.
