well, I'm enjoying a lot of it, but that's not what I'm here to
discuss. How do you transfer the licenses? I have an old GT3 save and
when I transfer data from it all I get is the cash

IIRC, it's an option that you see when you set up the game for the first
time (you need for your memory card to also have the GT3 save when it's
setting up). You can only transfer the A and B licenses, I think.

Ah, so I probably should have had both cards in the drive, or even
both games on the one card?

No you can't.
You can change the setting to "Restricted" but it will still auto save
everytime you get into a new car.

I had the GT3 save on the memory card I was going to use for GT4. I
usually do this anytime I buy a sequel. I even keep publishers together
just in case of a "Psycho Mantis" situation.

:O) I had just been reshuffling as I only had one card and my wife
got a save error on one of her games so I thought it was getting too
full, bought two more cards and split some games between them

I have three games going. My son and I have autosave on, but on the
grandkids version I switched it off so there would be no accidental
corruption with them switching off the game while it saves. It's
certainly off completely and we're in the UK

I also noticed while looking for something about the game that on one
early report on the full game they mentioned that until you win
particular licenses the cars you 'buy' are not yours but only rental.
I thought it was a gag but it was a genuine review.

The licences come from Prologue I think...
