How do you unlock tracks in LeMans?

Post by dark »

I've been playing TD Lemans a lot and I've won a bunch of championships. During the championships I get to play on various different tracks, but when choosing a race in time attack, or multiplayer, I've still only got the 4 or so basic tracks to choose from that I started the game with. What do I have to do to unlock more tracks for the other modes?

I really can't remember as it's so long since I played it. I could give you the cheat code for unlocking them, but I doubt you'd want that !

Have you managed to unlock the Jaguar prototype yet ? That was an awesome looking car, though not the quickest in the game by a long way. I seem to remember you have to win all the Quick Races to achieve it.

Great game isn't it ? And definitely not just a pretty face.

I just checked for you. Here's what I found:
Completing the quick race circuit unlocks all of the game's courses for the time trial and multiplayer modes

Cool, does that mean I just click "ok" and start with the random car and random track?
I've been doing tournament after tournament trying to unlock stuff lol, the later ones take an hour and a half of straight play time! I lost the most recent tournament by 1 point... waste of an hour and a half ;)

I thought you might be interested in seeing some real-life footage (actually, I don't think it looks as good as the Dreamcast version ! lol). Some useful driving tips, some familiar sights and a spectacular crash. The 1999 Le Mans 24hr was billed as the race of the century.......and it lived up to all the hype:

That was interesting to watch. I really respect the DC game more now, because being inside the car in the video really showed the level of detail that the game went to in order to recreate the Lemans experience. LeMans is a hell of a lot cooler than nascar racing, too bad we don't get any coverage and no one pays attention to it over here.

Glad you liked it. Yeah, Le Mans is cool......not sure what the correct term for the series is, but I too prefer it to NASCAR and even F!.
