Practice is going well and times are coming down.......
New download cars and tracks and sky are FAaannntaaaaaastic :))
Tweeked AI to with in reach :))
BUT... I still haven't seen my name on the front page :((
'cos before I get to that (either during practice laps, the race, or reviewing replay AFTER I won!!!!) I get shunted to desktop :((

It's happening more frequently now... and I can't, for the life of me, figure out what is doing this...
Any theories? ... please :)))))))))

most of the time when you experience CTD's, some of the car or track updates you are runnin just do jive with your system. Its quite hard to diagnose if its a car causing it, but if it only happens at a certain track, then its the track most likely. Try driving some training mode in different cars and see if you get any CTD's That will help you narrow it down to which car it might be.
Many thx, WCvXd.... I have got some car stuff today, so I'll check'em out and see if that's it :))))))))

John,
I've seen that WinMip has a "check integrity" function and tried it (without saving...I have no CTD problem so I'll not try to fix anything for now...:) ).
I've see different results from the check: OK, no subimages, 3 subimages out of 5, etc... This happened on several tracks that are running fine for me, but where I haven't raced a long race yet.
Do you know which code should I look for, to see if a MIP is not ok, and what do I have to do to fix it? Just in case I'll get some CTD...

When it comes to the mip stuff, I am TOTALLY at a loss. I let others handle all that stuff. You will probably have to ask that one in RSC's forums. Sorry m8.

What video card do you have Tox? You might be able to install the smaller "voodoo friendly" textures on the tracks that are giving you problems.

Dave, I don't have problems by now with the track textures, so I won't change anything...:) But on many tracks I haven't run a full race so I don't know...I only tried the Mip Checker on some track and got strange results (missing subimages). Maybe it's not an error?
