INSTALL :
---------
- install GTR2 16th Anniversary Patch 16.0.0
- install this hotfix (overwrite ALL*)
- run GTR2_SETUP.CMD to choose your options (as some pages are updated you will see an error message the first time you modify them after this hotfix : just ignore error message, next time these pages will be reset and will show no more error message)


CHANGELOG :
-----------
v16.0.1
- added missing DDS for CREWCHIEF PLUGIN which caused CTD when CrewChief Wipers were set in GTR2_SETUP (thanks to The Iron Wolf for reporting)
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.1

v16.0.2
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD
- added few missing DDS
- added Targa Florio 2.3 Dynamic Clouds in GTR2_SETUP.CMD (will detect automatically targa track and set dynamic clouds OFF/1L/2L with your choice as it does with HQ/F1-94/NOS2007 tracks)
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.2

v16.0.3
- removed monza hut in the air for all HQ monza 2003/2004/2005
- fixed second LG tower mapping (I fixed the first but forgot this one too) for all HQ magny-cours 2003/2004/2005
- made P&G showroom background darker
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.3

v16.0.4
- still not satisfied with PnG showroom BG_SHOWROOM.TGA so I set DucFreak black showroom from his GTR2 version which looks much better
- fixed some P&G backgrounds : BG_CHAMP_SMMR.TGA, BG_GARAGE2.BMP, BG_MENU2.TGA, BG_OPTIONS2.TGA, BG_SETUP.BMP, BG_TECHSPECS.TGA
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.4

v16.0.5
- still not satisfied with sparks so I have updated them again
- updated GTR2 UI : added red line around video for 10th Anniversary and added 16th Anniversary variation for main screen, fixed video shadow size for colored versions
- updated PnG3 UI : added missing 24h event in menu and optional NO Driving School (ON/OFF), I have made so many tweaks that now it deserves the tiny "HQ" logo instead of "v3.2" on main screen ("v3.2 2015" indication is already present on legal screen for HQ...because original PnG3 mod 3.2 shows "v3. 2012").
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.5

v16.0.6
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD : fixed path in wipers option for last GTR2 Butch 60s cars (now it is ButchTeam folder instead of Power&Glory as PnG3 mod is no more required)
- still not satisfied with sparks so I have updated them again...promised this is the last time :D
- added PnG3 original spark option
- finally I decided to enable spark in PLR as cars crashes look better when ON
- added new icons to new 16th Anniversary UI skin
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.6

v16.0.7
- fixed Butch 300sl showroom reflections (reset wipers page option to install the fix)
- updated UI
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.7

v16.0.8
- updated HQ physics/tyres to improve (a lot) AI with modded tracks on wet (you can compare PnG3 mod page XVI between -1- PnG3 HQ Anniversary AI and -2 or 3- original PnG3 AI at NOS2007, you can do the same comparison between HQ and base game)
- updated some UI icons
- fixed stroboscope effect on some external cams
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.8

v16.0.9
- fixed P&G class instead of G3 in Full menu
- optimized PnG3 HQ AI to pass NOS2007 and most modded tracks (only with option #1 page XVI because option #2 & #3 are PnG3 original physics which are unable to drive on many modded tracks)
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.9

v16.0.10
- reset SteeringFFBMult value for direct wheel drives (thanks to erba72 for reporting issue, well Shovas warned me too but I forgot to modify it, it is done now)
- optimized PnG3 HQ Anniversary for Lotus Cortina, Triumph TR4, Austin Healey and Alfa GTA which rolled over the roof at NOS2007, it is fixed now
- fixed Austin Healey mkI wrong 6 gears (it is 4)
- fixed Austin Healey mkI/Mustang BOSS302/Jaguar XKE bad range value for DiffPreloadRange (it is 20 and not 2000)
- fixed Jaguar mki/ii bad range value for DiffPreloadRange (it is 10 and not 100)
- fixed porsche IROC steering wheel pivot center
- replaced driving school fantasy red wheels by silver real ones
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.10

v16.0.11
- added missing ComparativeTime value (helps to sort AI grid) in some PnG3 HQ Anniversary cars : re-run GTR2_SETUP and set option #1 page XVI to install update (Options #2 & #3 have original PnG3 physics so NO AI fix)
- restored original physics for HQ option (base game was not affected as it is always completely stock) : in previous HOTFIX I have added AI fixes to HQ original physics too...but it is no more original physics in this case so I set it stock again with original AI (this AI is unable to drive tracks like NOS2007/Targa Florio especially on wet so AI will crash, jump, roll over the roof and abandon : that is "normal" behaviour of original AI). Only modification is FFB fix otherwise game is unplayable with a direct drive wheel.
NB: if you want original physics with AI fixes then choose SHO Competition AI ;)
- disabled autopit in PLR because it does not work great for many modded tracks (thanks to blackskull101 for reporting)
(note that you can still re-activate it in menu by checking "Pitlane Control system")
- added HQ2005, BUTCH cars and Trofeo Nitro AI/FFB fix too (if you do not have these mods then dedicated folders will be deleted by setup automatically)
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD : added dedicated SHO Competition tyres (GTR2 original tyres with AI fixes)
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.11

v16.0.12
- fixed CTD with some PnG3 cars when you changed suits/gloves options page 29 of setup
- fixed sun/moon position (sun/moon did not appear by rain without Bjarne DX9 patch), please reset skies option page 26
- updated sun texture for more realism (looks better with options #3, #6, or #7 page 26)
- fixed Butch cars external sounds (must be mono and not stereo), as usual setup will delete folder if this mod is not installed
- decided to add direct drive wheel ffb fix to base cars too because it is really unplayable with powerful direct drive force as erba72 signaled me, this is the only modification to original game.
NB: page 42 of my setup you can still restore stock files for online so all original game files (without FFB fix this time) will be installed for base game.
- updated dynamic clouds trk with last Nordschleife 2007 v2.21.104.8, re-run skies setup page 26 to install this update if you have last NOS2007
- added dynamic clouds option to base tracks page 32 (with or without HQ textures options)
- added new HQ lens flare HIGH intensity level option (thanks to blackskull101 for advice)
- various improvements
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.12

v16.0.13
- added missing 203 AI talents RCD to PnG3
- updated AI again for NOS2007 which seems ok now but, as GTR2 original, Reborn physics are not great for some modded tracks (especially on wet), I recommend to choose NAP/AFSC/HQ2022/SHO instead for better offline races with AI
- fixed CTD with 2005 (2003/2004 were not affected) porsche 996 GT3 RS dunlop/michelin/pirelli REBORN physics (other physics were not affected) because of wrong tyre name
- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD : added PnG3 original files restoration option page 42 for online
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.13

v16.0.14
- updated PnG3 HQ Anniversary (go page XVI and type either #1 or #2 to get graphics updates) :

- updated GTR2_SETUP.CMD to support new GTR2_SETUP_LOADER.CMD feature : you can save (page 44) and restore (run GTR2_SETUP_LOADER.CMD) your favorite setup now !
- updated legal screen version to 16.0.14

v16.0.15

- fixed CTD with CAS files named GEN : alfa_gtam.gen, bmw_cslv24.gen, ford_capri_3100.gen (this extension is a curiosity in PnG3 mod so I did not update them when I updated all CAS files with hq dirtscreen)

thank you so much
Thank you so much for making all of us having fun with this legendary game.
I never played the original so this is default for me, and it looks and works great.
Thank you!!
Thank you for so much hard work on this mod. Could you help in an issue I have discovered using the latest .12 and .13 versions? When my car starts from being parked in the pits for it seems that the autopilot takes control instantly when the engine starts and dashes me into the nearest wall, or catapults me from the pit before suddenly cutting out and I can regain control again. I have tried all kinds of things to rectify this but can find no reason why it is happening. This is an amazing improvement for GTR2 and PnG but is simply frustrating trying to solve this issue. Hope you can help... I still rate this mod as one of the very best around!

I disabled autopit in tweaked PLR so do the same as it is hit and miss on modded tracks : I advice you to pick a hq plr from setup, you can rename plr file and folder if you prefer your name instead of PLAYER.

Thank you for all your hard workAppreciated
