I checked the multiplayer server list and there are a good 2 dozen odd servers up and running though some had passwords, basically it looked like a bunch of racing leagues judging by the names but I didn't pay it a lot of attention.

Also I did run a few practice laps around Laguna Seca in the Retro Volvo Stationwagon thing, that was fun!  I spent a bunch of time looking through all the different cars too, love all the Touring Cars / race cars, so much so that it's given me a couple of ideas for Tuna evnets on GT5.

Also, also I downloaded the skin templates too.  Haven't actually loaded any into Photoshop yet but looking at the instructions it may be a touch more difficult than say iRacing, however I won't let that stop me from trying to get some of the liveries I'd done for iRacing cars over onto Race 07 cars!

Im downloading the tracks from the google docs link provided. I'll check it out tonight

Thanks Tunawiz. You saved me alot of time

I plan to take down Track Pack 1 tonight and upload Track Pack 2.

If anyone is even considering playing this game either now or in the future I suggest you download it before 11 pm eastern tonight.  That's when I plan to make the switch.  It takes a few hours to upload so I plan to set it up to upload over night.

Speaking of the Track Pack 1, I unzipped it last night (:teehee) and got to wondering.. are these tracks all compatible with any game / expansion combination or are there some that require say GTR Evolution in order to work?  I use that as an example because it comes with a (modern, I think) version of the Nurburgring and you have the 1970 Nordschleife version.

I guess an easier way of putting it is "What expansion packs do you have, Wiz?" .

Also where do we shove tracks in order to have them work properly in the game?

race07 folder then you will have a user name folder. shove em there.

Or to be safe let the big dog answer

Speaking of the Track Pack 1, I unzipped it last night () and got to wondering.. are these tracks all compatible with any game / expansion combination or are there some that require say GTR Evolution in order to work?  I use that as an example because it comes with a (modern, I think) version of the Nurburgring and you have the 1970 Nordschleife version.

I guess an easier way of putting it is "What expansion packs do you have, Wiz?" .

The tracks I've loaded up so far work with any and all variations of the game.  Doesn't matter if it's Race 07, Retro, GTR Evo, whatever.

Track folders go in the following location...

C drive
Program Files (Or program files x86 if you have 64bit windows)
Steam
Steamapps
(your name)  <--- there will be a folder with your steam name
GameData
Locations

You may not have the last 2 folders which means you'll have to create them.  Create the folders exactly as above, watch for where the capital letters are.

Also, any of the mod tracks will not overwrite any tracks that the game or any of the expansion packs comes with.

Ahh thanks Wiz, I was looking everywhere for a Race 07 folder and only found one in SteamApps or Documents but neither have a GameData folder.. WTF is the actual game data then?   Also, are there any .ini files I need to create / amend to link the paths for custom tracks or does it automagically detect whatever's in GameData\Locations?

Boy I'm just full of questions today! 

:ikik

[EX_stream_tuna]

lol... you guys all save to your "C" partition... NOOBS!   

j/k   

[AgentWD40_FL]

I think I've heard of a C partition .... somewhere.... I think? 

Mine is called /home .....

[Wiz]

Also, are there any .ini files I need to create / amend to link the paths for custom tracks or does it automagically detect whatever's in GameData\Locations?

Nope, the game will automagically detect anything that's in your Locations folder.

Thanks for clearing this up for me. I may have a nice pc but Im just learning how to use it.

Full lap @ Nordschleife in a Chevy Lucetti DTM like car...

Race 07 Chevy Lacetti @ Nordschleife

This car is fun as :fuck


Also, track pack 2 is available for download at our sister site (for pCARS & Race 07), www.project-tuna.com   Come check it out!

 That was really cool Wiz! I'm pretty much in the same boat as Turbo, except i could get a gaming pc. The only reason i don't is because the wife said either the PS3 or gaming pc. Hopefully one of these day i can get around the wife and get a pc. If Gran Turismo games sounded like the video, i wouldn't be looking any place else but they don't!
