Version Branches
Every PS3 Gran Turismo title, including demos, retail games, and special editions (such as GT Academy builds) have various configuration files known as version branches. The selected version branch can be found inside of the game's executable and it pertains to a specific configuration of the game, sometimes with additional features and functionality that are available only when the game is running under a particular version branch. By editing a string in the game's executable, one can change the version branch of the game.
This demo uses trial2007 as its main version branch.
dev
This version branch was used by the developers to test game functions. It is a basic menu with a green background and twelve options, with a red text translating to "This version will be discontinued, use RUNVIEWER", indicating that the dev branch was being in process of deprecation.
