Inlcuding the Maserati MC12's (bit twitchy on the throttle, definately need low TC on)

Can be downloaded from here - http://benvolley.free.fr/modfiagt05/home.htm

Unbelievably long-winded installation process involving importing menu screens using GTRManager, batchfiles a 2005mod launcher icon and others.
BUT THERE IS AN EASY WAY by treating it as a simple new car set, like the ALMS cars, or single make cars you can add.

This is how to do it.

1) run the 2005mod installer you downloaded and point it to your desktop, do not install it to your GTR folder.
2) Once finished go to where it has been unpacked.
3) create a new folder called Gamedata and copy all the new files created by the installer into it.
4) rename talent2005 to talent
5) Delete music and UIData folders.
6) copy SIM_2005Icon and SIM_2005 from the savemod2005 folder into the main folder so that your new Gamedata folder looks like this. And delete the now empty savemod2005 folder.


Just open your GTR-Gamedata folder and copy all of these into yours. Run the game and enjoy. The 2005 cars will show up in your car selection class screen.

You don't have new 2005 menu's or music (so what) this way you can launch the new cars using the normal way not another launcher. Simple.

your not joking(in the other thread) about the maser being twitchy! its a real challenge although they do seem to move around a lot in real life. a lot of fun though. really seems quick in a straight line too, i saw wheelspin in 3rd on a dry road a few times!

Run traction control on the Maserati. TC is legal in the 2005 GT series, the Ferraris use it, probably the MC12 too.



PV, my "race tonight" was posted yesterday - last night

I had a good race on the german elise server just now

except on lap 2 a guy span infront of me and I couldn't avoid hitting him... He said "Cowley! You drive how a Taliban!" and then he quit. It was pretty cool.
