The INPA.INI configuration file in the C:\EC-APPS\INPA\CFGDAT folder sets the function key assignments for chassis selection.

The chassis specific script selections can be found in the *.ENG configuration files, which are also located in the CFGDAT folder...i.e. E90.ENG.

Once I went back and replaced it with the updated .INI and then recopied the CFGDAT and SGDAT files over, everything seems to check out, along with an expanded vehicle menu select.

Thanks for that!

P.S. If anyone is still has a Windows 7 box sitting around, using Win7+XP Mode (MS virtual PC) is the way to go instead of installing, killing install, reinstalling, etc. Just build the VM, follow the install, extract your files, then copy to Win7/Win10 system. After you're done just kill off the VM all neat and clean.

Past that point, all is in German and German metrics. I know that I had copied the eng files across but for some reason, it appears as if it is not reading them. How can I get them to display english units/titles instead of German?

Thanks,
Brad

The *.ENG configuration files only specify which chassis specific INPA scripts are to be executed. They do not influence the language variant and/or system of measure utilized by those scripts.

This DIY explains how to obtain and install English metric INPA scripts. If that's what your seeking, I suggest following the DIY...
