The original 2001 tyre positions are too short for today's cars. It would be better to get Tweaker working.

Are you using CSM?

OK so you need to use GP4 Tweaker on its own. Do you have it installed?

You have to install the ini files yourself. Here's the instructions from the GP4 Tweaker download:

  Extra: Config Template
  ----------------------
  You can find this extra located on "extras/config_template" directory inside the archive file. The config
  template files are GP4 Tweaker basic configuration file that all sets to default settings. If you're not
  familiar yet with the config template files, it highly advisable to install these templates into your
  Grand Prix 4 installion folder.

  Note:
  While performing archive extraction operation, keep in mind to always enable "extract with path" feature
  on your archiver software. Consult to your archiver's manual to learn more about this feature and on how
  to use it.

  Assuming that your current Grand Prix 4 game was installed under "c:\gp4" folder, installing configuration
  template was quite easy. First, extract config templates from the archive. Then, copy "gp4tweak.ini" file
  onto your Grand Prix 4 main folder so it should look like this:

  c:\gp4\gp4tweak.ini

  Next, you need to copy all files under "extras/config_template/gp4tweak_data" archive directory into your
  Grand Prix 4 main folder. The first step is simply copying or moving "gp4tweak_data" (it's mean FOLDER
  copy/move operation, NOT FILE operation). Copy/move this folder from extract folder into your Grand Prix 4
  main folder so finally it should look like this:

  c:\gp4\gp4tweak_data

  You should also get all configuration template files under "gp4tweak_data" folder:

  c:\gp4\gp4tweak_data\armscolor.ini
  c:\gp4\gp4tweak_data\armspos.ini
  c:\gp4\gp4tweak_data\cptdashpos.ini
  c:\gp4\gp4tweak_data\cptsteerpos.ini
  :
  and so on

  If you're not sure by doing this simple thing (doooh!), just follow these steps. First, create a new folder
  in your Grand Prix 4 main folder, and rename the folder into "gp4tweak_data", without quotes. You can do
  this easily with Windows Explorer. Assuming you had extracting the archive file before, copy/move all
  files (it's mean FILE copy/move operation, NOT FOLDER operation) under inside "gp4tweak_data" from extracted
  folder (all of those *.ini files) into the folder that you previously created in Grand Prix 4 folder.

  At this point, if you can't still figure it what should and what shouldn't to perform all above procedures,
  it advisable to asking helps or guidances from people who knowing well on how to manage files under Windows.

If you can't get this to work then I recommend you try CSM with an Empty Mod Template.

I am using teameditor and using all original gp4 tyre positions for all cars (older). I installed gp4 tweaker but apparently it's to complicated for me.
Thanks anyway for trying to help me.

How did you install GP4 Tweaker? Where did you download it from?

When you downloaded GP4 Tweaker, you downloaded a .zip file. Or maybe a .rar file, or something else. This is an "archive file".

Find the .zip file you downloaded, and inside this .zip file you will find the tweaker .ini files you are looking for. Then just read the instructions again and it should be clear.

If it's still not clear, use CSM. It's much easier.

If you are using CSM then you don't need to install gp4TWEAKER cause its build in CSM :)

You find the folder Tweaker in your mod with all the files and ini's included !!!

Let's start again:

1) Download GP4 Tweaker.

2) Put GP4TWEAK.DLL into your C:\Windows\System folder.

3) Copy GP4_EXE_PATCH.EXE file (under "extras" subdir from the archive) came with the archive to your Grand Prix 4 game installation folder.

4) Run GP4_EXE_PATCH.EXE located on your Grand Prix 4 game installation folder, for example by double-clicking the file from your Windows Explorer.

5) If you get this message: "GP4.EXE will be patched. Continue and proceed this operation?" confirmed with YES, otherwise choose NO

Now you have GP4 Tweaker installed. The next step is to extract the ini files. They are found in the downloaded .rar file, under "extras\config_template". Extract the contents of this folder to your GP4 installation directory. Then modify them to suit your game.

If you still can't do this, you need to use CSM, or give up :)
