Hello Friends,
It’s been requested many times, and we’re happy to say that if you own a retail copy of GTR, GTR 2, or GT-Legends you can add digital versions of these games permanently to your Steam game library at no charge.
Times, technology, and operating systems have changed since these games were released, but your passion and dedication to race gaming has kept them alive. It is your love for racing that brought this goodwill gesture forth, and we hope you will continue to enjoy these games for years to come.
We are pleased to extend the life of these classic games which are so intricately tied to SimBin’s history. For GTR 2, however, we are not able to provide all of the content from the retail version in this digital release.
The digital versions of GTR, GTR 2, and GT Legends are available now. To add these games to your Steam game library you’ll need the multiplayer lobby code which was provided with your retail version. Navigate in the Steam menu to: Games > Activate a product on Steam, then follow the prompts until you are asked to enter your *code.
*Please note: You will need to enter your code without the dashes.

i dont need to do it yet as my disc version is installed but i will upgrade in the future ..
nice job Peter..

Well....

For GTR 2, however, we are not able to provide all of the content from the retail version in this digital release. = GTR2 Steam version has blind a lot Icon car like Ferrari and Porsche...

Well... included Maserati MC12, I have no idea how they could stick MC12 pics on their news.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

oh deer, maybe we can take the cars form our old verson and drop them in

 

[TCS_disable]

I have same thinking like you.
But I have loaded my good old replay files that included Ferrari and Porsche.

Could go into Replay mode smoothly. However, these vehicle became black only.

Until I replce all DLL & EXE from DVD version.

 

[Paul Bennett]

Never had retail version of GTR2 , so glad that Simbin have sorted a digital download.
I can live with lack of Ferrari & Porsche so it's my payday shopping list !!

@Rupe Wilson, should I add P&G 3 or just stick with GTL ?

 

[FerrariMan96]

The Ferrari/Porsche thing must be an issue - what happens when playing online with people with the (original) retail version?

Apparently the files for the cars are still there, but they're just disabled by the exe or something... What a pity...

So here's a question: why can GTR1 and GTL have Ferraris and Porsches?

 

[Peter]

There was a discusion at Raceroom in febuari about somebody bought a new version in Brasil, it was boxed with no Ferrari on it.
Must be a stupid Ferrari licence thing.

 

[FerrariMan96]

Yeah, what a pity

Looks like I'll go and buy the retail version instead (don't ask why I haven't already - I don't know myself ). I'll make sure I get an Aussie one with all of the cars

Or we could wait and see if someone makes a 'patch'... :suspicious:

Another thought - maybe this is why the original GTR is more expensive on Steam than GTR2

 

[Rupe Wilson]

Paul Bennett well im loving P&G its a bit different to GT Legends in how the cars handle and feel on track.
And as its free download , its there to try..

 

[Rupe Wilson]

How to use the porsche and ferrari in GTR2 steam version

 

[Neil Gault]

I used this steam version for my clean install of P&G so nothing else is going to be added to it apart from addon tracks.

 

[Rupe Wilson]

Sounds good, I didnt want to mess up my gtr2 and P&G3 thats working like a charm outside of steam atm..
I gooogled how to get the porsche and ferrari in the steam version so at some point I might swap over..

hopefully more people will get to enjoy this classic game now

I went out to the Fraser Valley for a drive with gf and kid and while we were out there we stopped in at a London Drugs to do a bit of shopping. I found a copy of GTR2 for $9.99 CDN but when i went to go pay for it the price was reduced to $2.99!!!!!

Now i have 2 copies of GTR2, just installing new one to my other pc

[Hiroshi Awazu]

So, to the people that are new to GTR2, how are you liking it?

 

[FerrariMan96]

Oh I just love it. Prefer it to all of my other GMotor 2 sims (and I own all of them AFAIK - rF, GSC, GTR1, GTL, RACE Series). I love the feel of it. I feel like I can push and be close to the edge consistently
