Can't save modded GP1 files using ArgEditor

[Fábio Marcelo Calsavara]

Hello. I play GP1 using DOSBox, and it works normally. I downloaded ArgEditor to update driver names, car colors, and helmets, and I saved the result in a copy of the GP.exe file, which had already been decompressed using UNP v4.11. ArgEditor seems to save the new file with the modifications, but when I open it in DOSBox, the original GP1 data still appears. What could I be doing wrong?

Clarifying the issue: I make the changes in the editor and save them to the uncompressed .EXE file. When I import the data from that same file to check if everything is correct, I see that the car and pit crew colors, as well as the helmets, were saved properly. But the driver and team names just won’t save at all. Is there something I might be doing wrong?

Fabio,

    please, try looking for the names_file.nam (you can have other file names for your drivers names) at the moment that you export your sets via ArgEditor.

I wasn't aware of this file. It worked. Thank you!
