Power & Glory mod for GTR2 released

I have GTL but no GTR2 so I just ordered it used from Amazon... should
have it as I seem to have every other sim known to man. I'm buying
Race07 also, really like the "feel" of it.

Apparently, you have the opportunity to make a lot of money if you
install starforce. I found this on the starforce site (I wanted to
find out what it was):

"StarForce is announcing world wide contest among users of StarForce
protected applications!!!

There have been a lot of rumors in the Internet concerning DVD/CD
writers malfunction after installation and star-up of StarForce
protected applications. Some have even mentioned that should such
"malfunctioning" drive be placed in any other PC without StarForce
protection installed it will fail to work as well.

In the past year our staff and many of our clients tried restlessly to
reproduce the matter based on these rumors. Using our hardware
collection we assembled systems alike, but such problems never took
place.
Therefore, we have no proven facts of such issues and we have found
out that all of these rumors are false.

We have serious reasons to believe that such problems are pure
fiction.
However, if such problem does exist, it should be repeatable.
Therefore, just to make sure, StarForce decided to have a worldwide
contest among users of StarForce protected applications.

Anyone who can reproduce and demonstrate the mentioned above problem
with CD/DVD drive in our office will receive $10 000.00 US.

You should arrive in our office with your PC or use any of our PCs and
reproduce the problem. "

It depends on what you consider "a lot of money". $10k USD barely covers the
aggravation and travel time and expense. Sure, if they offer too much, it
might motivate some to invent a problem that isn't there just to collect. If
they were really serious, they would fly their engineers out overnight, loan
me a dual quad while they figure out what they botched, *and* chum out some
cash to make it worth my while to allow their fingers anywhere near the
private and sensitive stuff that lives on every PC. Where I'm concerned, 10k
amounts to a cheesy PR gimmick. Recognize it for what it is. They're not
taking this at all seriously.

And how is anyone supposed to prove that Starforce buggered their
malfunctioning drive and not something else? All you're going to have
is a drive that doesn't work in your machine and their machine.
Starforce creators aren't going to want to admit it was their software
that killed it now, are they?

I'm in the same position. I don't race as much as I used to, but GTL is
still my favourite modern title. (In fact I only ever drive rFactor
because it runs without having to find a disk). So this is a good excuse
to pick up a cheap copy of GTR2 -- from Play.com for 12.99ukp inc.
postage in my case -- and see how this mod feels. It sounds well worth
investigating.

You can run GTR2 with no disk too as there is a crack available for the
latest version of GTR2.

Can't I run the Cortina's etc. in season mode with this mod? I only see a
season for the IROC cars they added.

Thanks, I'll check that out. Hopefully it'll still work with the mod in
place or I may be forced to tidy my desk more often. :-)

Thank TonyR
I will buy a GTR2 looking forward to running this new one, especially
since I have has so much enjoyment out of GTL, this enhancement will
another level of enjoyment.
And I think Race07 will be the other one in the stable, very
impressed, especially since I dno't like the later cars.

thanks
