HELP: Game crashes when exit
Tried to look everywhere but couldn't find anything.
So, i got some tracks from Wookey-s site (the best of the best), i know that their .scn and .gdb files are made for F1 Seven. I changed those codes in .scn and .gdb files so i can drive this tracks in 1999 season (without any mods). Tracks are loaded normally, raced normally but when i exit the race and "saving replay" appears the game crashes to desktop. Is there any solution?

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
I can't help you, 'cos I tested these tracks only in F1 SEVEN (the best mod ever) and didn't save a replays. On what Windows you play? Did you try to change the VBSTRATEGY in config.ini?

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
I'm on windows 10, but running the game on compatibility mode XP.
can you please tell more about this VBSTRATEGY ?
I agree, F1 Seven is the best, but i can't convince my friends into this. This is why i'm trying to at least import some cool tracks. (Kyalami, Adelaide, Hermanos, Brands, ...)

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
I'm using Windows 7 and game compatibility I have as "Windows 98/Me".
The VBSTRATEGY is one of the parameters in the config.ini (or CREWF1.ini in F1 SEVEN) file. Open this file in the text editor (noetpad) and look on VBSTRATEGY. The default value is 1 (VBSTRATEGY=1). Try to change it to 0 or 2 and test the game. I'm usin' "0", some others use "2".
Good luck!

Set compatibility mode to 98/ME, firstly used VBSTRATEGY=1 but didn't work. Second try, changed VBSTRATEGY=2 and wollla it works fine!

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
Do you have installed the "F1 Challenge 99-02" on system disc (C:\) or on another (D:\), Vostok57? I tried it on my laptop with newly installed Windows 10 and I can't load no track. Only game.

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
Thanks for your response, Vostok57. I'll try it so. (Despite the fact, that Windoze 10 looks horrible.)

I can't start the track "GUANZHOU". (From one of the DTM packs by RMGS team.)

Re: HELP: Game crashes when exit
Now i see, i forgot to mention that i also changed compatibility mode to 98/ME, like you told me. I assume you already have tihs set. 
I'm experiencing problems with install and running of F1 Seven. Folowing this from Wookey-s site,"CREW's F1-Seven (order of installation : 1975,1974,1971,1973,1972, 1970, 1976, 1977)" but can't get it to work.
