Bruce is there any way to change the number plate?

 
LOL. How about www.fordscorpio.com/XJ, that's a nice plate... No, you don't want to see the XJ I'm making  Grin Roll Eyes
 
Just put the body.tga into a graphics program like PSP, you can change the plate easy then Wink
 
What plate were you thinking of? Give me a body colour and I can do both for you Roll Eyes

Belladona? Who's she then? Grin
 
I have most of the common colours I think, if you've got another I'll make a texture for it...only takes a couple of minutes Smiley
 
About the XJ, you're right...I should keep quiet, you won't see it here Wink
 
There's some screenshots over on RSC, it's not released yet though, still needs interior and textures. That one will likely go into rFactor too. Racer's pretty dead lately so it shouldn't be hard finding the thread over on the forum Smiley

Some say yes, some no. It will run and won't mess anything up but might be a bit buggy, mainly down to the newer DirectX I think. Best to try and see.

lol Mike, I don't think you need worry mate but better to be safe..
 
People do run it on Vista and it's a mixed bag about how well it runs, the guy who develops it started developing it for Vista but he went back into XP because Vista still has some issues. AFAIK it should all run fine Smiley

Version 0.53 b8. If you get any issues with the menus etc, try 0.53 b5.  
 
0.50f is very old (2003), you'll get some texture issues in there I think.
 
Just copy the car over into the racer/data/cars folder and you should be good to go Wink

When you download Racer, it's normally a ZIP file. So it depends on whereabouts your downloaded files go, mine go to desktop, yours might go to a temp folder or something. When you find the zip, just create a new folder where you want it to be installed and unzip the file you just downloaded into that folder and it should all be done. Same with cars and tracks, they go in the racer\data\cars and racer\data\tracks folders.
 
Hope this helps Smiley
