Do you get group races from italy in so5? i don't think ive seen any in so5 yet.

Nope.

Italy isn't listed as a nation within SO5, at present all we have is UK, Ireland, USA, Australia, France, Dubai, Japan, Hong Kong, Canada, New Zealand, Germany.

Someone did a schedule on SO4 with a few italian races run at baden baden course, id love to see the San Siro track created and a few of the Group raes added to the English schedule. I'm an italian living in australia and we have a horse purchased buy an australia interest, to be set to race in the melbourne cup later this year. Would be good to get more showcases from Italy, Argentina, Mexico and Chile. There are some top Group racing in these countries.

Sharkie?? Is that you??

Huh ?

Mick Sharkie, The person doing all the purchasing of european stayers to come over for the cups..

uhhh i get ya....

Mate theres some good stayers in europe that do better in South Hemisphere style of racing.

I agree mate, I personally think the Shark is onto something with the German and French stayers he has been getting...

Lucas Cranach was unlucky in last years cup and i think is a MASSIVE player again this season, and he has picked up a couple of others as well for this year..

You aren't the only one, but without access to the source code I don't think this is possible? Or at least I can't remember how to do it.

I have had a go myself and I can't see any way to add countries in, however of anyone wants it and is willing to provide me with the necessary course information for courses like capannelle, San Siro etc. I will make a pack you can use to replace one of the existing countries eg new Zealand.

this was the most information I could find regarding group races and dates for italy. I have a picture of San Siro race course at home i could upload later tonight when i get home from work.

The kind of info I really need is length of one loop of the course and the shape. From there I can try to find a suitable course from existing ones as I don't know how to edit wp files. If I knew how to( hint: if anyone knows can you tell me how) then I could create a fully realistic one.

No offence to our New Zealand friends, but I agree, and think Italy should be one of the default nations.

Maybe if mark could add italy to an update of so5 but saying that it would probs take along time, so ill just have to stick with using italian races in the uk
