The following utilities were written by steve b to assist people in swapping carsets in and out. 

Group Track Swap file:
This is an alternate method of swapping tracks. Instead of moving tracks in or out individually before starting Heat, thisbatch filewill swap a wholegroup of tracks into your RUN folder. As written, this utility is setto have a NASCAR, SHORT, and ROAD group. This includes the major typesof tracks available today 

• 2 TrackFolderSwap  
• 3 Track FolderSwap 

Carset swappers:
Be sure and read the readme files.These utilities do take a couple or preparatory steps. 

The readme is tedious because of all the different ways users may be set up already. They may be using the 2-car 512 swap and just needa 3-carset addition; they may be doing it all for the first time.So, the readme for the 3car512 utility tries to covera lot of options.Sorry, I hope its not toooooo confusing. 

• carswap256 
• carswap512 
• 3car256 
• 3car512 

This one is written for paint256.res; if you need it for paint.res, just edit appropriately. 

The only critical  part is renaming the paint256.res and drivers.txt to the same names you designate in this batch file, and putting them all in the right folder.  paint256.res goes in therun or data folder, drivers.txt goes in the main heat folder. For example: 

name your WC paint256.res to paintWC.res and your WC drivers.txt to driverWC.txt. 
name your BGN paint256.res to paintBGN.res and your BGNdrivers.txt todriverBGN.txt 

Be sure and keep all names to 8 characters or less!!!  This is a dos-based batch file.
