I just made an adjustment to the attachment filter to allow .html files. You should be able to upload it now. The quick reply editor doesn't have the attachment option, so you must use the standard "Reply" button for it to appear.

If that doesn't work, you can always email me the file and I can manually upload it and link to it from the forum.

Are you talking about the attachment bar where you can drag a file?

[Jason]

Yes. I see that you included the file in your post but it doesn't display. I was able to download it and uploaded it manually here: https://forum.digitalgamingarena.com/gallery/Grand_Prix_Legends_1967.html

Feel free to create your own thread with that link if you want it displayed more prominently.

Do you have any gameplay footage you recorded? I'd be curious to see how the game looks.

[Ted]

Thanks for that.  I don't have any footage yet.  Being an older title it doesn't automatically record with my overlays and I can't alt tab out of the game so I have to start the recorder first I think and then hope it grabs the right stuff when I play. I'll figure it out and try to get some raw footage up so you can see.

Did an intermediate race this morning (24 laps, advanced damage) and finished 13th of 20.  I didn't try to qualify so started at the back of the grid.  Unfortunately it wouldn't export the results to a file this time (not sure why it kept failing).  I actually finished ahead of only one other driver that completed the race.  There were 6 retirements, 3 to accidents and the other 3 mechanical based on what I saw while lapping.  I really like the mechanical issues the game imposes during racing.  I saw a chart that showed the actual finish rates of the cars in 1967 and it was mind-blowing how unreliable they were.  The best of the year had a 22% DNF rate (I think) and the worst was in the mid to high 80% if I remember right.  Crazy
