Good afternoon GPM2 community!
I haven't played this game for a while, but after watching F1 races from 2001 (thanks to lockdown), I've regained my interest in GPM2.
My question is, do any of the older mods run using version 1.02b? I downloaded the 2001 season mod and discovered it was 1.02.
I only ask as I don't fancy making a new career, only for the EMS bug to kick in after a few seasons. It happened last time I played GPM2 and killed my enthusiasm for the game.
Cheers in advance!

Someone else suggested to me to just download real 1996 with the 1.02b, and then copy that exe into whatever mod you're playing. It messed up my sponsors in my 97 file but everything else is perfect and no EMS bug!

Yes. Start the game with a modded .exe, save your game and change the exe to 1.02b should do it.

hi, thanks for the replies. I tried replacing the .exe, but after I changed it, I was the only cars running the race...

F1 Rejects/Leftovers, 1982, 1989-1992 (remastered editions), 1996 and everything from 2009 onwards use 1.02B. AFAIK everything else still runs 1.02.
Also, since some of the data is stored in the EXE it is not recommended to run non-1.02B mods with a 1.02B EXE, as it can lead to permanent save game corruption.

Cheers Nuppiz, I guess I’ll have to settle for 1996 then. Maybe starting that early I can prevent the Schumacher/Ferrari domination 😂 |

Oh, forgot the F1 Rejects/Leftovers mod from my list. It was in fact my second 1.02B mod (after I had updated 1996 to run that), and the EXE used for that is the basis for all of my recent remasters and the 1982 Mod as well.
