I've got a problem with weird graphics in Bahrain 2006.



The other Bahrain circuits are working fine. Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

What is the name of the dat and the wad file? Are you using TSM?

The names are sakhir2006.wad and sakhir2006.dat. And I'm using TSM.

Is the slot for the dat file of the 2006 version the same as the previous versions?

The above screenshot shows that the wad doesn't correspondent with the right dat file.

Ehm, when I installed the 2006 trackpack and tried to test Sakhir, some errors occured, but I can't remember what the error messages have displayed because it happened a couple of months ago and the error messages never come again. And the slot is not the same as the previous versions. 2005 & 2007 have slot 3 and this track have slot 1.

Which original track is being replaced by the 2006 version?

Interlagos, and the game (without CSM) is showing Sakhir layout as trackmap of it.

That's the problem: Sakhir 2006, like the 2005 & 2007 version, still replaces Interlagos as track but is now in 1st slot instead of 3rd slot. Interlagos corresponds with the 3rd slot. When you load the track with TSM, do you get the track map of Melbourne?

Could you also post the settings.ini file of Sakhir 2005 & Sakhir 2006 and the ini file of the main folder in the trackpack?

I only get the layout of Sakhir. And here is the .ini file of Sakhir 2005:

I posted both of them because also Sakhir 2005 have these problems.

I downloaded the Sakhir 2006 version from gp4db.com and I had no problems with any slot. Also no problems with Sakhir 2006 of the track pack.


EDT:

I downloaded Sakhir 2005 and the position of the dat is different compared to the 2006 version. There lays the problem.

This line of the 2005 track pack seems incorrect:

Track3=Sakhir\2006\sakhir2005.ini


My advice is to throw all the tracks away in the Tracks folder of GP4 and install the 2006 track pack again.
