Better known today as the developer of Skyrim and Fallout, Bethesda once had a well-respected racing game franchise and were deep into development of a licensed Skip Barber Racing title that never released.
Video game development is rarely about one man, but if it was, then Terence Groening should certainly get a mention for his contributions to the genre as the man responsible for the physics of Sportscar GT, EA’s PC F1 and NASCAR games of the early 2000’s, rFactor, rFactor 2 and every title and rFpro simulator that spawned from ISI’s engine.

Installs from the CD and (after installing this patch) it ran fine with toca2.exe in Windows 98/Me compatibility mode, HOWEVER, it took over an hour to load tracks and to exit the software. To fix this you need a fixed exe that has been altered with a hex editor:
– Original TC2.exe: Offset 0x706ED (row 000706E0, column 0D), change 7E to EB.
– Patched 4.1 version of TC2.exe: Offset 0x7426D (row 00074260, column 0D), change 7E to EB.
The internal directx error usually seems to appear if you have not run toca2.exe in Windows 98/Me compatibility mode.
