LOL Jim you must have consumed your F5 key today

JimM · 24 March 09, 14:11

LOL...just lucky timing.
Out of bed, turned the puter on for a minute before heading out the door to work.

Nice little gift to start the day. THANK YOU!

alexSchmurtz · 24 March 09, 14:17

Waou, it's a big update! Thank you!!

swviper · 24 March 09, 14:33

Nice work once again everyone!

Titofgo · 24 March 09, 15:16

still an amazing job !!!
downloading it now

thank you GTLW

MOF · 24 March 09, 15:37

Installed this just a little bit ago. Trusted you guys for the .exe installer working right. It did! Put my GTL disc (a DVD) in the tray, installer 'unpacked' everything. Then it found my version of 2.0 P&G in the Program Files, and in a few seconds, I had the updated sim up and running! What's that saying? "Smooth as silk...".

Wow, those Porsche Langhecks are gonna take some getting used...weird-looking cars!

Thanks once again for a faultless install. You folks deserve all the credit you may reap.

Aristotelis · 24 March 09, 15:39

Thank you sir.
Btw, you don't need the GTL disc for the update to be installed

Don't forget to look at the GT over 2 liter for a 906 surprise

pitradio · 24 March 09, 15:57

About the 906-e, that looks like a production model, and as I read on wiki, those were allowed to race in group 4..
Are thes e906-e's production models?

dartguy · 24 March 09, 16:00

Looks great! Can't wait to try it!

Daveyraveygravey · 24 March 09, 16:27

Can't wait to try it out, although I feel I have hardly scratched the surface of the mod and you are improving it!

No the 906E are not production models, on the contrary they are all "works" models and as a matter of fact, they have the injection engine that is easier to tune and gives just a bit more power.

Actually, as far as I know, although the 906s got the homologation for gr4, no one raced in such trim. For sure none of the cars included in Power&Glory.

Keep an eye on the website as we have another small gift for you tomorrow

TICTOC · 24 March 09, 17:24

Downloading now, That was quick on the scene for such a big update.

Thanks team for giving us all a fantastic whole new game, and working
to make what is already so well done even better.

Cam.

Tarkus2040 · 24 March 09, 18:06

Hello, Aris! This is a most excellent surprise!

Downloading the update now.

Can't wait to thrash these graphically (and physics-wise) improved beauties 'round Toban!

Thanks again for delivering the best mod ever to us old-school racing junkies!

lukasz · 24 March 09, 18:26

Thank you guys.

R48 · 24 March 09, 18:40

Thank you very much for this update!

Raikku · 24 March 09, 18:53

I have moved my PnG2 from "G"-partition to "F" and this installer doesn't allow me to run it/update the game.

When i locate/select my PnG2-install it just says, "please select install where PnG2/GTR2 is already installed", or something like that.

HR186S · 24 March 09, 19:14

You can quite easily change the path with the patch installer... I've tested it on many installs in the past weeks...

The updater will work on an install that you have moved elsewhere. When it asks you to point to the location you have moved it to, simply point it to your new location

The only thing that may be happening is that you have changed your gtr2.exe name to something else. The updater verifies your new location as valid by looking for that file.

If this is the case, just temporarily change the name of your P&G.exe (or whatever it is called) back to gtr2.exe until the updater has done it`s job, then you can change it back.

I've been reading into it today, and saw the E was for Einspritzung aka injection.. But well I will search the net for a Grp 4 906, altho I'm afraid I won't find one as you didn't find them also.

Aristotelis · 24 March 09, 20:25

there should be some, I've been told that some would even race in one trim on a race and a different one on another. Later maybe some other member can give you some more info about it

HR186S · 24 March 09, 20:43

Many cars raced in the different classes from race to race, its hard to pin down which should be gr4 and which should be gr6. Take a look at the results and you should find some. For Sebring in 1966 they where all in the Prototype class, and at other races in different classes. The E, LH, and 8 where all in the Prototype class. There are also test mule E's with different body work at the front, and also some with the normal short nose body work running in the races leading up to Le Mans.
An interesting case is the Targa Florio winning chassis #906-128, at the Targa in 1966 it was fitted with the carburettor engine, while at the Nurburgring 1000km the same year it had an injected engine.
Andre Wicky's Chassis #906-135 raced in the P2.0 class at Monza, and in the S2.0 class at Hockenheim.
What do you do, which class does it go in? The class it raced most in, or the class it was in for the cars livery?

Josepmaria · 24 March 09, 21:40

Hi friends, once again thanks for this fabulous mod, each upgrade makes it better and better !!!

I just want to let you know the fabulous experience of driving the "new" Ferrari 250 SWB

... I tried it in Lime Rock Mountain, Le Mans67, Laguna Seca, and even ... Hitchin !!!

Really this is a new car now, my favourite car since I had my first Scalextric back in the sixties

... (I still keep that car ...)

Alex911 · 24 March 09, 22:43

Thank you very much for all your work...
This whole mod is absolutely awesome! This is by far the closest thing to reality I have ever experienced in a simulation.
The physics and graphics are fantastic!
And I fully agree with Josepmaria that the 250GT SWB is now a pure marvel, just as it should be!
