5.5 year bump
I'm experiencing this bug. When using the track-specific cars wad feature, CSM appears to edit gpxtrack.ini in both the
Grand Prix 4\gpxpdata folder (correctly) but also
within the CSM folder structure (incorrectly). The result is that it creates a new gpxtrack.ini in the CSM folder which then causes the Restore to fail because it cannot swap/overwrite gpxtrack.ini from Grand Prix 4\gpxpdata back.
I thought I'd publish my workaround in case anyone else finds it useful.
Firstly you must delete gpxtrack.ini from your CSM mod.
Secondly, edit the
Settings\Swap.ini file as follows. Rather than use SwapFolder, I use Swapfiles instead to move each gpxpatch .ini file individually, and leave out gpxtrack.ini. This lets CSM create its incorrect version of gpxtrack.ini in the CSM folder structure but it doesn't get in the way anymore:
Swap.ini - Bad code[SwapFolder]
Folder1 =GPxPatch,gpxpdata
Swap.ini - Good code[Swapfiles]
File1 =GPxPatch\fonts.ini,gpxpdata\fonts.ini
File2 =GPxPatch\gpxcinfo.ini,gpxpdata\gpxcinfo.ini
File3 =GPxPatch\gpxlap.ini,gpxpdata\gpxlap.ini
File4 =GPxPatch\gpxpatch.ini,gpxpdata\gpxpatch.ini
File5 =GPxPatch\gpxsat.ini,gpxpdata\gpxsat.ini
File6 =GPxPatch\gpxset.ini,gpxpdata\gpxset.ini
File7 =GPxPatch\gpxsound.ini,gpxpdata\gpxsound.ini
File8 =GPxPatch\performance.txt,gpxpdata\performance.txt
File9 =GPxPatch\physics.g3p,gpxpdata\physics.g3p
Important: Notice there is no mention of gpxtrack.ini in the latter.
