Again, I can't seem to find it. Is the patch very big, maybe Hotmail is refusing it?

Hotmail has a 2MB inbox limit right now. Soon to be expanded to 250ish I think...

Aha, that might be the problem. Can the patch be found online, or shall I dig out an address I haven't used for ages but that has more space?

Oh, and by the way, the 2003 update is seems to be quite nice actually!
Just installed it and it looks decent if you don't mind some spelling errors! |

Oh dear. I execute the file included in the zip patch and it says it can't find win32dll.dll. What do I have to do to play the game?

No!
Don't click it, just rename it to gpw.exe and place it in your main game folder (like C:\Program Files\Microprose\Grand Prix World for example) Last edited by ASCII Man; 8 Aug 2004 at 14:06. |

At last! I've been able to play the game and it looks very complete and professional. Now I only need to learn to make a team work!
Thanks for all the help, ASCII... now, could you please resend me the picture and instructions for changing Newhouse to Jacques? Last edited by Jordi; 8 Aug 2004 at 15:58. |

Ok, but don't lose it this time!
If you've installed the 2003 update then you don't need to install the pic i'll send or change the name, but i wouldn't recommend installing that update though! Last edited by ASCII Man; 8 Aug 2004 at 17:09. |

I'll follow your recommendation... what's the trouble with it, though?

I see. Let's stick to the original... By the way, I managed to change all the non-F1 drivers' faces to known drivers, so now Jenson Button is Pierre Raimbeaux...

Yeah, made them myself. I changed all names but I somehow ****ed something up, so I'm changing them one by one now. My "Non-F1" drivers are Button, Räikkönen, Alonso, Davidson, Sato, Heidfeld, Webber, Montagny, Kovalainen and Wirdheim.
