Thank you Rob and Saiph
I was looking for a new post but couldn't find one, now I know why

Hey guys, sorry if this has been asked before (and I'm sure it has).

Had a HD crash the other day and lost heaps of data, but luckily all the important stuff is intact (read GPL). So I have re-installed windows XP. I know that GPL should be OK but Gem will not load.

Can I just reinstall Gem/iGor over existing files or do I need to delete the GPL Secrets folder. Thought I'd better ask first, have had enough stress already trying to recover everything else.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

cheers

I would delete the GPL Secrets folder just to be on the safe side. This is only my advice and I am by no means an expert, I just think that it would be best seeing it isn't working for you anyway.

Thanks Craig, you might be right

Hello everyone.
I'm trying to get setupmanager 1.1.5 to work through GEM+ 2.5.32, with no succes.
I was previously using setupmanager 1.0
I placed 1.1.5 in the GPL secrets folder (removed 1.0) and when I start it from there it works, after I point it to the GPL.exe file. When I load a '65 setup I get the choice to pick the year and the setup loads.
What doesn't work is when I try to get in 1.1.5 when in GEM+. When I hit the edit button nothing happens. When I remove 1.1.5 and put 1.0 back the edit button works fine again.
Did I miss something or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for any help!

The latest version of GPL Setup Manager is V1.1.6.  Maybe it will work better.

Look into the link in post #42.

Thank's for the reply!
I DL'd the V1.1.6., which seems to be an .EXE file, and dropped it in the GPLSM folder in GPL secrets replacing the previous one.
The GPLSM works like it did before if I start it up from within GPL secrets, but the EDIT button in GEM+ still won't launch the GPLSM 1.1.6. like it used to launch v1.0.
Any suggestions?

Open GEM+, select the Configure button, select the "Path to Setup Manager" button (button under Path WinVROC), then point GEM+ to Setup Manager v1.1.6 .exe; where ever you have it.

Thank you!
That makes sense. I already looked in the configurator but didn't know what GRE was.
So I just did what you explained and it still won't work. But don't worry, I'll figure it out somehow. In the meantime I'll use the shortcut to GPLSM I put on my desktop.

Cheers,

PS : in some previous versions of GEM, it was posible to attribute some different engine sound file to each car through the carset menu. It seems its no more possible. Do you confirm or is there anything wrong with my install ?

I can't ever remember that feature to be honest.

It was a kind option. We could change the sound through GEM without having to rename the sound file in the sound folder.
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, that would be great, but the only programme I know of designed for that was GPL Soundplayer. Unless my memory is letting me down again!!

Fred Simms Car Changer can be setup to change sounds when you change certain skins, but you have to put sound files in the car folders to set it up like that. Quite handy though.

[Ferdinand Sommereder]

Well, I think Paul Skingley answered to that question already once in a thread about the 67-patch informing that this feature is no longer available. I may be totally wrong, however.

I have not used the GPL soundplayer for ages. Isn't this tool simply for comparing sounds?

I notice I am getting old.

Maybe you're getting old, but you're right. Lee's GPL Soundplayer is mainly for comparing the sounds. But you can create
your own Soundsets and load them via GPL Soundplayer into GPL. (For example: GPLEA Soundset, Ducwolf Sounds, Speed Eraser Sound) and so swap easily and wiithout renaming any files between them.

GEM+ was (or is?) able to give every car in every carset its own sound, I'm not sure whether this feature is gone to hell with the 67patch, will
have a look this evening and report here ...

Cheers
