There is any program that convert hardware jams to software jams in batch mode? The only way to play gp3 in modern systems is in software mode, but the majority of tracks are in HW mode.

you could check this out [www.grandprixgames.org]

download links maybe be dead, but if you're interested, i can upload them again.
Maybe i still have a little guide for sw conversion from my early gp3 years. I'll have a look.

But don't expect any batch file :-( its all about skill and patience.

Hi again, i found a one-pager that i wrote 4 years ago for someone on the forum.
I doubt if it still works for win7/8.

Hi Dirk

I wondered if you had converted any of the F1 tracks from the 1980's, 90's and very early 2000's to SW mode and Belini/Aarts and Roberto Scandura fantasy tracks. I have downloaded the tracks you put on Zippyshare on this thread and they run very well. I tried the Smoking Pen Ricard but it is very corrupted with distorted colours everywhere. I tried converting your Matarka Park but again I got horribly distorted images in the game.

I could put tracks up on my Dropbox if that would help - I have 200 - 250 mb spare.

For everybody who is into software driving, this is a must have track pack.

50 tracks are included, most of them are in a high to very high quality, with 3-4 which need some extra work.
you can find it here [www46.zippyshare.com]

Great service Dirk (Y) I use hardware, but for many others this package will be great :-)

well, it was not a problem, just spending some time to test and fix some little issues here and there.
All tracks are made before 2008.... guess i learned a lot since then. luckily :-)
Only the Elliniko track is a fresh conversion.
I hope people will enjoy.

Now, lets spend some time on .....Sochi ! hardware, off course ;-)
