How do I go about disabling the arrows that come up?

Launch RichardBurnsRally_SSE.exe (at the root of the game).
Goto Options -> Notes -> 3D Notes .... switch to No
Save changes and quite the game.

I already did that, but I still see the little arrows at the top of the screen. Any other suggestions?

You must do the changes directly in RichardBurnsRally_SSE.exe not in RSRBR.

I know. That's what I did. I used RichardBurnsRally_SSE.exe. I noticed from this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBI9oDg9ZnI, he has no arrows only audio pacenotes. Is he using a special plugin to do this? By the way, thanks for the help your giving so far.

You makes your changes in the MULLIGATAWNY profile ?

Yes I did. 3D notes is set to no. The 3D notes isn't there. What I want to get rid of is the 2D notes.



Here is an example. The top arrow is the 2D note, and the lower one is the 3D Note. I already disabled the 3D note, and I also want to disable the 2D note. Hope this makes it clearer.

All these arows are notes 3D
If you don't want to see the second arow juste adjust set this to 0.

I found out what to do. All I had to do was to set Pacenotes to off. I thought this would have turned it off all together, but after doing this the arrows are gone and I'm still hearing voice.  
Not sure what the Pacenote stack does, but I had already set it to 0.
Thanks for trying to help though. Hope this helps anyone else that wants to do this.
