F1 2021 MegaPatch - Now complete!

Hi everyone,

In the next week or so I will be releasing a beta version of a F1 2021 magapatch with all the kind of detailed changes my previous megapatches have included. This is the first time I have tried to make one for an active season, so menu art and track updates will be up to Hungary and then completed at the end of the year.

With the exception of menu arts and some graphics improvements, I see myself as a compiler rather than an originator. So thanks in advance to all those that have created excellent content for 2021 so far to allow this pack to be possible.

Not long to wait ... all I have left to do is to make visors, arms, legs and more accurate cockpits for 7 teams or so.

Back soon.

Elio

Ciao Elio!

Se per le prossime stagioni, vuoi occuparti tu, di aggiornare GP3, mi fai un favore.

Richiede molto tempo aggiornare tutto. Cerco qualcuno che mi sostituisca.

Comunque cercherò d'istruire mio nipote, così potrà realizzare qualcosa lui.

Ho postato un video di come realizzare l'animazione delle visiere, utilizzando una visiera nelle tre posizioni, da sovrapporre sui caschi.

Cool, looking forward to it

Thanks guys to keep this wonderful game alive over years.

Here you go!

F1 MEGA PATCH 2021

Updated as far as Hungary.

Lots of work to do on pitcrews. Let me know if someone has already done this!

Also ... does anyone know how to get the square shape cockpit into Gp3 2000? I can only apply it in Gp3 (basic).

I'll update to a full megapatch when the season is over. But in the meantime you can enjoy while the season is still ongoing.

Happy racing!

Elio

I think the GpxPatch new versions make you able to import double carshapes , one for cockpit shape and another for car shape.
That's the only mod, I am afraid, cause careditor cannot.

Thanks Elio

Hi Elio

Answering your question about "does anyone know how to get the square shape cockpit into Gp3 2000? I can only apply it in Gp3 (basic)."

Try to edit the file gpxset.ini

Here are the original lines

[CarshapeManager]
Enable=0
Carshape=

Here are the new lines

[CarshapeManager]
Enable=1
Carshape=gpxpdata\FE2020\FE 2020_2.cs3 ===>>> here is the carshape GP32K
Cockpit=gpxpdata\FE2020\FE_carshape.cs3 ===>>> here is the carshape GP3 1.13

this is my setup to FE ( GP32K )

In GP3 1.13 this also works. You can have two carshapes configured. One for the carshape and one for the cockpit, in which case both will be from GP3 1.13.

This will only be possible in the current version of GPxPatch ( 4.51 and 4.52 )

GPxSet: Added experimental cockpit shape patch for GP3-2000. Use the GP3 car shape file (!) to specify the cockpit.

Thanks Evandro

I will read this a few more time and see if I can apply your instructions.

Now updated to TURKEY for tracks and menus and USA GP for menus only

Big thanks

The F1 megapatch is almost ready for a final update. I have made all the menu art right up to Abu Dhabi.
Just waiting on revised Jeddah and Abu Dhabi tracks ... when you are ready gentlemen, then it will all be done.
What a season! Hamilton was robbed in the end, but hey, Verstapppen was the better over the course of the season.

Hi all

I've updated the 2021 MegaPatch further to add pit crew and the final menu art and the updated Jeddah and Abu Dhabi tracks. So that is the season completed! Link below.

By the way ... I encounter an annoying problem with the pit boxes. With some tracks, they are in the right order to match the cars and pit crews (so I dont want to change the order on the JAM file) but with other tracks they are in a different order, so some dont match. Any ideas about how to fix this in a sensible way?

Merry Christmas and enjoy racing this crazy season!
