Just load one of the helmets from my attachment and reexport it to the exe.

Personally I have more complete Gp2-versions installed just to get rid of the switching/permapatching and to be able to ride complete seasons (tracks, menubackground, etc.) with one mouseclick. It consumes a little bit HD-space, but it`s worth IMO. Some time ago I was thinking of a tool to make some copy and patching things automatically but I just didn`t have time or the zest ;)

btw, if you want to contribute to our 2009er fanset, you`re welcome ;)

@Andreas:
It would be great to have some helmet shapes (I`m sure you have more than me) in the carshape section available. If they already exist and I didn`t find them I`ve never written that line ;)

MäxX, I tried that but for some reason no matter where I install all the different "versions" of GP2 and the associated programs (GP2Edit etc), none of the editors can find the relevant install of GP2. How do you solve this?

I installed the game 1 time and simply copied the entire GP2-folder to another folder.

This is my folder structure:
c:\games\GP2 - inital and untouched installation
c:\games\GP2\seasons\xxx - all patched seasons

You just need one GP2Edit installed. Then everytime you will install a carset you must set the correct path in the program Options.

You won't have to do it many times, as each GP2 folder will be used by a carset, in most ocasions.

just curious...

Becouse there are few active trackmakers, so they tend to make the tracks that they think are the more interesting. But I'm sure it will still come up someday. I would do it myself becouse I love Spa, but I have no free time to finish my projects and I have about 20 unfinished tracks on my hd, so I'm not taking any new projects.

no worries guys.

just curious that's all.

i really wish I knew how to make tracks because it's something i'd love to do but having to look after 3 kids and work at the same time means I wouldn't get any time to do it.
