How to get menu skins back and menu music on Race 07 after last update?

[ksio89]

After the last major update (v.1.2.1.10) to Race 07, Sector 3 Studios screwed up some features such as menu skins. Previously, you could launch Race 07 by starting the addons on Steam game list, and it would start Race 07 with a custom menu skin, such as red for GTR Evo, and green for Race On. However, it's broken now.

I already checked this thread http://www.nogripracing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=319950, and it does not work anymore, I still get the default blue theme from stock Race 07. I also checked this thread http://www.nogripracing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43980did and all the menu graphics are there in the mentioned folders, but for some reason I still can't launch Race 07 with different menu skins. Adding "skin=GTREvo" as a launch parameter to Race 07 is supposed to start Race 07 with GTR Evo skin, that red one, but that trick does not work.

It seems S3 Studios released an update which simply disabled the feature of launching Race 07 with custom content, such as menu skins or addon music tracks. Does anyone know if it's possible to force Race 07 to start with custom menus and play the music tracks from the addons, such as GTR Evo? Thanks in advance.

Im not sure what updates you get or even from where ? There was no Game Update's now for years for RACE 07 or any from the Sim Bin Games that going trought the RACE 07.

On my own , all is working like before with no changes.

I bought SimBin Mega Bundle in Christmas 2014, I don't know if it has any effect on my issue. I just reinstalled it yesterday, and the issue persists, I only get Race 07 menu skin and not addon music tracks.

edit: I'm a moron, I thought I had downloaded GTR Evo, but I didn't. I downloaded it and then started it, and I got the menu skin back.

No you are wrong, there has been updates, the last one, once again broke the XD plugin and also caused a lot of other problems.
Nothing was added or bug fixed. It seems they only update the game to break it some more.
