My Logitech Driving Force is configured all wrong, I can only get about 3/4 acceleration and about 1/2 braking power, but I can't figure out how to reconfigure it, it's probably something really simple that I can't see. My PB is only a 1:50 frown

The files should reside in GTR2\GameData\Teams\BMW M3 Challenge\BMW M3 have you perhaps removed the BMW M3 Challenge folder level and Just copied the BMW M3 folder into the teams folder?



PS. The latest PrototypeSSC mod with all the LMP900, LMP675 cars then adding the new LMP675 Porsche RS Spyder and the Audi R10, Peugeot 908 diesels to is a good one to try.

Still doesn't work frown
Really can't work out why...
I deleted the whole directory and started again...
Stupid question but do you need to put each respective folder "Sounds" etc. in each of the GTR2 equivalents?
I have, then I added the car files to Teams as you listed above...
I'm shattered, might try and look tomorrow smile
Thanks for all your help though 4WD thumbup

The M3 challenge?

Open the RAR file select the Gamedata folder and extract it to your GTR folder. That's all you have to do.

Just did the above and still no car frown
I wonder if I've pissed around with it too much now!
Anyhow, this is what I've done -



But I'll be reformatting either tomorrow/wed as I have new CPU etc. coming so I'll try it again then.

Sorry to dig this back up, but does anyone know why the website for this game (and also the web games) aren't working at the moment?

Thanks but I don't want to download it (I already have it). It's just that in the last few days I haven't been able to connect to the web game server. And because the website (www.m3-challenge.com) isn't working, it leads me to believe that something is wrong. Just wondered if anyone knew anything about it!?

I think this is due to 10tacle going in to liquidation (they used to run and pay for all the GTR servers). From what i understand, they should be back up and running now.

Well the website still seems to be down. Any ideas when (or if) it will be back?
