So, for those of us who didn't get the "working" release: get this new update, strip 20 chars off of those 5 files...and burn?

Is that right?

It's those number files, someone needs to change the call string in the xbe to call somewhere else and not those files.

as far as hdd tho...no chance until a hdd patch is made (probably after a proper...)
this is due to the five long filename files.....

shortening/replacing these five files with anything other than those in the fix(es) will not work until a patched xbe arrives...
it is exactly the same story as toca2
this is a form of copy protection from codemasters....no fault of mrn's
it will be sorted but be patient...some one will get around to it
buy some dvd's Wink
have fun

Oh, I remember now, toca 2 actually came with a cracktro Smile So yeah, that likely required a bit more work than usual...

Alright, got it. What I don't understand is why this would require the second release...
The correct 5 weird files, a new .xbe and the save should do the trick, no? Or are there other differences between the 1st and 2nd release?

Aah, fuck it. I'll just try it and see what happens.

why waste another second on a release that at best has many elements missing when u actually get it working , so just wait for the ntsc and chill Wink


As for framerate, the 360 version runs smooth, while the PS3 is a jaggy mess that chugs along in slow motion.

Damn it's still not right, apart from being unbelievably hard (for early part of the game) I can't complete any championships, it just tells me I have failed even when I have clearly passed. Two first places out of two and apparently I failed ???? Stuck on tier4

Anyone else got this ?

After more experimenting, I discovered that you can complete championships in World Tour mode as long as you don't change any options.. sound/controls/name ect

But the gamesave must of been set in hard mode as its next to impossible to even come in the top 5 let alone win in the very first race (GT Lights Tier 1)

Oh well, hopefully another group can give us a good version.

hd fix & working game walktrough:




step 1: Delete the folder called Toca_Race_Driver_3_WORKING_PAL_XBOXDVD-MRN or Toca_Race_Driver_3_PAL_XBOXDVD-MRN.

step 2: Sit tight and wait for a proper release of this game.. prolly from projectx , dagger , riot or clear.

step 3: FTP over or BURN the game from any of the releasers above.

step 4: Play!

enjoy this great solution!

Hmm...something is wrong alright. I finished a couple of championships, but am now also stuck @ tier 4, even after winning all the races. Confused

Codemasters my ass. Unless there's some smartass protection thing going on...strange about the options thing though...

Redo the gamesave and don't touch any options what-so-ever.

Are you finding really hard ? Like your car has the weight and presence of a block polystyrene while the comp cars are like imovable concrete objects ?

Well...I'd rather just fool around with the other modes for now until the elusive proper version appears.

Heh, it's no Forza, that's for sure. Hard? Yes. The AI are evil fucking bastards that could care less if you're in their way. I think it gets better if you turn pro-sim on, gives a better sense of weight... Of course, that would mean touching them options Very Happy

I have obltained a new working save from Kero and have tested it. It starts at Tier 1 and I can now change options like name and control layouts without any errors. This one seems to be set at normal difficulty (I'm guessing as it could also be set at easy).

I have asked Kero to make another one with 3 profiles set at Easy/Normal and Hard starting at tier 1.
If anyone wants this save I have now, pm me.

MRN once again proves they suck by releasing a 3rd straight release that 1.) isnt proper and 2.) still doesnt work without some editing. God this group blows and they shouldn't be allowed to release stuff ever again.

LOL..way to go codemasters, my save has once again gone wrong again though it lasted much longer this time, I get the "can't complete the championship error". This must be some kind of protection.
