THANK YOU BY READING & DOWNLOAD THIS MOD! :)
Finally I could say, that I'm supposed, done editing this game, after modify almost everything.
But before I stop, I'll probably do little updates for the files into the; .zip*
BRIEF HISTORY:
I've been basically working in this "one-man" mod, since 2021 (4 years ago) but only in 2022 I could to
show the results, and that's what happened now. I feel glad how much people have download and enjoyed this.
But I think that's time to create a final product, and stop with the new releases everytime, as seen in Moddb.com.
This is definitively my biggest project, if not the greatest project, that I've done with the Race Driver 3.
I hope you and your friends, can enjoy this mod! ^^
This is a full mod, all track were graphically edited & updated, making possibly even you play LAN/ONLINE.
But when I do say that, were about with this mod! the files between players must match, to you can have a good experience and avoid troubles in the Sessions, or even be Kicked from the Match by: "Uncompatible files..."
Remember also that: It's a PC Mod, only!

=================================================================
USE:
**The mod is entirely integrated, and will not just add the modded tracks, but also, new circuits for the championships, and names for the circuits.
- First, Executate the exe file: "ToCA Race Driver III Remastered' V3.1UF.exe" or extract all the files into the: ToCA Race Driver 3's Directory.
"C//:Progam Files/GOG.COM/TOCA 3/"
**EXTRA:
- To stay with a better appearence, you must enable the "Post Production" at: ToCA 3/savedata/pchardwareconfig.ini DO
Swapp the 0 by 1.
Little example: "UsePostProduction=1"
Not sure if it will do a slighlty FPS drop, but I belive that's fine, and will not affect directly on the gameplay at all.
- For some reason, You can't play at Penultimate Discipline, "Palmer Motorsport Sensation", because at loading it crash
to desktop. BUT, There a way to fix that, into the gamedata/tracks there 2 Zip files between them: (Bedford Single Player & Bedford Multiplayer) extract one to replace, only original or the modded one to play at LAN/Online or Split Screen.
KNOW LITTLE BUGS:
- During the track selection, may some screens doesn't appear, but the tracks works very well.
PS. I was too lazy to enable this feature! xD
These are just some, but don't get bothered of it! Doesn't means the mod is unplayable at all.
I hope I can do fixes and additional for the mod, more for forward.
If you do get a crash, during the loading or some area specific of the game, please contact me!
