I use BPPC and Lotus 3 does not crash with WHDLoad. NOCACHE tooltype is necessary. Maybe it is the version of the game? I use floppy version not the Trilogy.

Generally if a game has a difficulty level I've gone for the middle one, I just think that's the best one to go for but that's obviously just me

Normal is too easy and too short.

Too easy? Not for me but then I'm not very good, obviously

And I don't think 10 races is particularly short either, but again - that's only me.

@Bamiga2002: no pic, no entry Sorry.

Actually, how 'bout Easy, Medium and Hard, and add up all the scores like turrican3 said? Any objections to that? As far as I can tell everyone will be happy

Or maybe you just want Hard? Please tell me if you want a change.

What car too? I always used to play using the Esprit (think it was the fastest) and IIRC the higher the top speed the more points you can accumulate

The above might be carp but could do with confirming

Is the Esprit the red one? If so that's the only one I use too.

Not sure it makes too much difference really?

Okay well I guess I better sort this out quick - I'm gonna go for all three and all the scores added up. And also you can use whatever car you like. So when posting screenshots PLEASE label them with Easy, Medium or Hard.

You don't have to do all three in one go either, in fact I don't think it's fair everyone HAS to do all of them (because not everyone might have the time to do so) but obviously you will be seriously disadvantaged if you don't so you will be better off doing them all

Even the adfs seem a little shakey. Anyone got a guaranteed working pair? Last one I tried froze up before race 6.

I had trouble with the ADFs too. I'm just using the WHDLoad version now though and it seems pretty stable.

Or perhaps try to install it with jst from jotd.
