Hum???
Nor me !!!
What's going on?

See ya

Hey, i downloaded it but the magicdata for Melbourne is wrong. it takes out of the game. Can you realese that magicdata again fixed please?

try to run GPxPatch in debug mode

What the hell

Everyone with this problem!

Well, this worked for me:

1 - Reinstall the track, make sure the jam's are in the corret folder
2- Insert the magic data in the GP3-2000[/i] Melbourne track file.
3- I recommend to rename the track file.
4- Load it in the GPxTrack and have fun.

I hope it works.
If not, I am gonna investigate the problem

See ya

The GP3-2000 Melbourne track will not work in GP3, nor will any tracks made for GP3 that are alterations of this track. You must use a specifically made for GP3 version Melbourne track in GP3.

The rest of the magicdata's worked for me, but not that one. And i still can't use it. i did all of what you said...

Hi there,
Megapatch is a really GREAT JOB.

J have two quetions :
1. where can I find "known bugs"
2. what you call in here "magic date" ?

well, and two bugs which I've found :
1. Michael Schumacher has Michelin tires, but when you choose view from the track, there is (as I know right) that he uses Brightone (i am not sure now how it should be written).

2. In the US track, you cant see as many things in the mirrors as in the others track... that's a bit strange to drive with this...

Many thanks for this patch
wolf

ooooooooppssss.........

I found the bug in the melbourne's md.
I am really sorry for this! I will upload a fix RIGHT NOW.
Anyway, the gp3-2000 track works for me

wolf, you can read about known bugs in the gp3form.txt file of my perf pack.
Magic data is simply a group of settings/commands for each track. They can be edited with a simple text editor (notepad) and then be inserted in the track file again (dat file).
You can change things like cc setups, track grip, pit stop strategies, etc.
Try to download cmagic program and teste yourself

About megapatch's bug's, I don't know... Ask Arexons about it.

Hallo SuperSonic,
thanks again for your great work. I use your performance pack for
GP3, GP3-2000 and GP4 with best results.
Will you sometimes release mdata for other levels (not only ace) too ?!
Happy racing from Germany !

For GP4? 0_o
Does it work fine?

I will release a 2004 perf pack after the San Marino GP. Maybe earlier, I don't know. Of course it will be updated along the season.
And yes, I want to make it "playable" in other skill levels.

It would be a nice idea to adjust each skill level of each track to a "%" (lap time).

I mean something like this:
Ace = 100% = 1:30.000
Semi-Pro = 98.25% = 01:31.575
Rookie = 96.50% = 01:33.150

Also, I think it's better if cc power is the same for all skill levels.

What do you think about that?

See ya

Hallo SuperSonic,
as I mailed to you I converted your peformance.gp3 file into a text file
( based on Play´s performance text file for GP3 2000)
and load it with GPxPatch. I think it works fine, but I don´t
know if it is correct.
A Happy New Year to you and all the people who make GP3,
GP3 2000 and GP4 a little better and let these games live.

drafi,
as I mailed to you ( ) I just don't know exactly how these txt files work

Happy New Year

See ya
