Other NAMeS: Real Drivers for AMS2 v4.21

NAMeS v3.6 includes updated CopaB, CopaFL & Copa Fusca files that were highly revised after combing through several new resources. As a result of these changes, all three categories now have NAMeS scores. Incidentally, some of the unmatched numbers below were the result of pairing the correct driver with the correct livery, especially with the Chevettes, while ignoring some of the quasi-fictional driver name. The result is the driver/car pairing is improved.

For example, Reiza's Chevette...

NAMeS v3.7 provides an improved Hot Cars file; similar to Copa Classics B, the new Hot Cars file matches historic Divisao 3 Fusca drivers to the appropriate default liveries.

MCR S2000 drivers in the P4 class have been updated to the 2022 Sports 2000 Duratec Championship season.

NAMeS v3.8 has an updated TC60S2 file in 2 flavors:

TC60S2.xml:
4/4 Lotus 23 names matched
11/16 MINI Cooper S names matched, including 4 driver substitutions due to Jim Clark's death in 1968 and some of Reiza's driver choices. This is the deafult choice.

TC60S2 - Reiza.xml:
4/4 Lotus 23 names matched
11/16 MINI Cooper S names matched, includes drivers like
Lakis Manticas, Richard Longman, and others, who did not race in earnest until the post-Clark era. Rename thsi file if you want to...

NAMeS v3.9 includes optimizations for the following categories:

GTOpen: 100% names matched across several British GT Championship seasons

Mini Challenge: Changed the lone, non-matched driver to the highest-ranked Championship contender among remaining, non-matched drivers

1960s Touring Cars, Part 2: TC60S2 file includes an improved selection of 1960's drivers to replace the 4 drivers who would not have raced against Jim Clark--especially during the years he raced a Lotus 23.

I spotted a small naming error while compiling an AI/livery set for F-B's 70's C3-R vs RSR skinset in AMS2:

TC70S has been fixed to reunite Tony's De with his Lorenzo.

Welcome to NAMeS v4.1d: The latest battle in the war between sub-par Quality Control and Persistance!

Cat_Supersport needed nationality fix, too. Annoying? Yes. Worth it? Drive the Supersport at Silverstone International for your answer....

NAMeS v 4.2 includes a file for the Stock Car Pro Series 2023 added to AMS2 V1.4.7.

This new file, StockCarV8_2023.xml, only adds Portuguese diacritics where needed, as the real drivers are activated by Reiza by default.

NAMeS v4.21 fixes a naming error in F-Classic Gen 4 class:

Reiza's "Eric Dalmas" was incorrectly converted into Yannick Dalmas (F1 1990) rather than Érik Comas (F1 1991). The new file corrects this oversight.

Incidentally, I only realized the error after converting (a) Afry's Gen 3 1991 mod + mungopark's MP4/6 skins + jusk's custom-AI F1 1991 file.
