Hi KH,
Ya I caught your note and the crc file in the other group.
It is amazing, now I have 4 different crc files for this vid, and none
of them match. Hopefully you can do a patch to align his with yours.
and then he will be able to post what parts he would like. I will help
with what I have also. If the patch doesn't work, it look s like he
has still around 80 parts that he could post and that would take a
little of the load off of you. I will keep watching for whatever you
decide you would like to do. Thanks.
Take Care;0
U
It's a great day to be a boy!
