F1 Career

Post by Manselltash »

Hi all great to be here and really enjoying GP2 at present.

I've decided to do my own write up and format for my fictitious career driver in GP2 with a 15 year career.
But in the utilities is the F1 Career app I'd love to try and use.
Unfortunately it will not work on my Windows 10 64bit pc as I think the app is 32bit coded.

Therefore as anybody got a solution to this?

Thanks

32bit programs usually work on 64bits systems. The problem is probably the same as with GP2Edit that has a 16bit installer so the software itself runs on 64bits since it is a 32bits program, but you can't install it because the installer is 16bits. The workaround was to make a zip package with the installed version on a 32bits system and share it so 64bits users could try it without installation. Maybe someone with a 32bits system can do that (not sure if it would work but I think it is the best shot).

Hi rremedio
Thank you for your info on this. I really appreciate this.
Yes you are right I should have and meant to say 16bit not 32bit. My mistake.
I have numerous old laptops and I know one is still on 32bit Vista.
I'll try install and run on that and make a zip package.

If it works should I post the updated F1 career app back here for others?

Chow and thanks once more.

On my list to do. Try my best to experiment when I have time to do so. Hopefully soon.
Thanks
