When downloading the course : Twin Lakes - PA - By Simon Buckner
https://linkscorner.org/courses/course.php?crz=556
Looking at the .crz it has ( CRZ Filename - Twin Lakes.crz ) .
Then when downloading the Course : Twin Lakes Mountain Resort - By Tim Bausch
https://linkscorner.org/courses/course.php?crz=302
Looking at the .crz it has ( ALSO ) ( CRZ Filename - Twin Lakes.crz )
Different Courses - Same .crz name ?
Any ideas how to resolve this ?
As it seems as if i am just overwriting one course with another .
Courses that have duplicate .crz names ?

Re: Courses that have duplicate .crz names ?
I don't like changing the file names of courses, but in some instances it becomes necessary. In this case I would append a bracketed number to the end of the file name.
As example:
Tim Bausch's course would become 'Twin Lakes[1].crz' as it has a file date of 12/29/2000, and Simon Buckner's would become 'Twin Lakes[2].crz' as it has a file date of 8/27/2001.
For me, when I encounter a bracketed number on a file name in my collection I recognize that I have more than one CRZ with the same file name. I will say though that most of the ones I have are different versions of the same course unlike this situation.
Other collectors may have alternate methods to avoid one file overwriting another similarly named although different file.

Re: Courses that have duplicate .crz names ?
That was what i considered but hadn't tried to see if it would work as it does on sound files and document files.
But it does So i left Twin Lakes - PA - By Simon Buckner as ( Twin Lakes.crz ) .
Secondly i renamed Twin Lakes Mountain Resort - By Tim Bausch ( Twin Lakes 1.crz )
The Game accepted the change and both loaded corrrectly .
Thanks for the feedback , it was reassuring im sure to everyone when this occurs.
