It probably crashes because the PLR file points to some non-existant file.

Try this: Move your player profile somewhere else and restart. If that works, try making a new profile, and then replace everything except the first couple of lines in the PLR file.

Dan! Worked for me. I copied ALL my saved data elsewhere and then started game. Now it works nicely!

Dan, I installed Beta2 and there is no 2004 icon when you go to change the profile. I looked in the folders and all seems to be there but when I click on the 2003nar season icon that is there I get the old versions. Do I have to remove 2003nar season?

Good, the problem was that people that had installed beta 1 and tested it left their PLR file pointing to files that beta 2 removed.

Easiest fix is:
1. move your profile somewhere else
2. start game
3. create dummy profile
4. copy the first couple of lines from the dummy profile PLR to the real PLR file
5. remove the dummy profile and move back the real one
6. race

MEDIC!!!!! im lost what do you mean by copy profile elsewhere? also rewrite plr file?????

[EDIT] wait nevermind questions answered

Post by **DanTheMan** » 22 Feb 2004, 19:36

Or just edit your PLR file and replace the current info with this:

[ SCENE ]
Scene File="SEASONDATA\CIRCUITS\Australia\2004NAR_Albert_Park\2004NAR_Albert_Park.SCN"
Scene Description="2004NAR_Albert_Park"
AI Database File="SEASONDATA\CIRCUITS\Australia\2004NAR_Albert_Park\2004NAR_Albert_Park.AIW"

[ DRIVER ]
Profile Vehicle File="SEASONDATA\VEHICLES\BAR\2004NAR_BAR005\2004NAR_BAR16.VEH"
Vehicle File="SEASONDATA\VEHICLES\BAR\2004NAR_BAR005\2004NAR_BAR16.VEH"

You need to select RH2003 reason, and then your own driver (names are correct, icons are not correct). And finally select the second Albert Park circuit in the list (there will be two). The one you should select has a "NAR2004 - " prefix.

hmmm, i tried creating a new profile, selected the NAR version of Australia, and have the same problem, as soon as the track loads, crash to desktop

mercury · Post by **mercury** » 22 Feb 2004, 19:53

okay its still crashing to desktop i moved profile then i made dummy profile and copied plr stuff its still crashing

on my new install, i did NOT install beta 1, only beta 2, and installed the rh2003 updates in correct order, it worked fine until i installed the NAR 2004 beta2, maybe we should just race with the rh update until this NAR season is fixed
