i dont know why this happens but i get a "can not load the track" message. other tracks work fine.

I remember having this issue as well, only with the 1966 mod indeed.

I found out by deleting the driver66.ini you get farther in the loading process, but, it still doesn't work.

It works on my install so try replacing the spa67 in your 66 season ini with mine .

Just copy and paste it in your 66 season ini and delete the one that's there now. I hope it works for you.

Do you have the GPL folder in "program files" ?

Never put it there, W10 will not let you change things...

[JzAr8]

no its in C:\Sierra\GPL

[JzAr8]

edit: i found it out. there was an error with the driv66.ini

Sorry to hear about your trouble. I always recommend making a copy of the whole GPL installation. Then when you have trouble, running the back up can eliminate other possible causes.

I install with the v.1.08 installer at https://gplps.wordpr...-gpl-installer/

Once you've downloaded that installer you can reinstall GPL in 5 minutes best replica watches for sale and just copy over your tracks and player folders. I also save the mod installation downloads and reinstall them if a problem like this comes up (and it does with the 67F2 mod for me occasionally). Why is a mystery, but I suspect that anti virus software quarantines some files. If that's the case, you need to add GPL related folders in the anti virus exclusions list.

But right now, try reinstalling the 66 mod. If that doesn't work, reinstall GPL and then reinstall the mods. Sorry but the hammer and axe method seems to be necessary sometimes.

no luck on the reinstall. I was already using the 1.08 installer before.

[Bob Simpson]

Did you add the GPL folders to the exceptions list of your AV software?

[JzAr8]

i did and nothing changed

Have you applied the 4Gb patch to the gplc66.exe?

I believe this was how I got Spa '67 to work with the 1966 mod. (I could previously not load the track either)

If you're going to use the 4GB patch, you should apply it to GPL.EXE. That's used by GEM as a base for creating all the other patched EXE files. If you apply it to GPLC66.EXE, GEM may overwrite that file and you'll lose the benefits of the 4GB patch.
