You will crash GP4 'cos you just edit the shape. Beside shapes, GP4 store track related data (collision, trajectory, ect) in other files. There are 3 separated files defined for a track. You cannot just modify the .wad file's contents, especially in .gp4 files.

Talk about *.gp4 files, there is small differences between *.gp4 file format for car shapes and track shapes. If you edit track using car shape editor, some important bits may missing.

that pic looks like a shot from GP4 Viewer

is what i was thinking

What?

Yep, if you try to use Genius or ZModeler, be prepare to have bugs as the one we can see on your screens.
Because as far as i can see, the app you use only read 1 scene (on the 2 or 3 contained in a gp4 track file) and even worst, you are not reading all the objects for these scene (reason why there are some really out of track thingy.

And as Madman said and as i was thinking about the last night, tracks are using special datas that other .gp4 files are not using (as sun positions for exemple) so you might have some troubles with the actual tools.

So is it possible to create a tool that can work with the track gp4 files?

Think its the last tool we really need for gp4. Then its possible to edit nearly everything to make gp4 more realisitc and more up-to-date.

Yep, but to you all, remind that i can't work on all my tools at the same time.
For now, I'm on Cameditor 5, and believe me, it's worth waiting some days
(And furthermore, some progress made with Cameditor will be of great use for future 3D Editor release.)

Anyway, also thanks to guys such as Madman and Laurent, GP4 is reaching more nad more realism.
Unfortunately there are problem only about tracks updates therefore I ask to Madman and Laurent: can you apply your ability and experience in update tracks after Tweaker and CamEditor?...
It should be a very very great thing to solve definitively GP4 realism problem!...

Yep, that's my plan too.

oooh new cameditor

Ok Laurent! We are waiting hopefully for your tracks updates!...

lol dont rush the guy :P all you have to do is look at Lo2ks website and all the tools he has produced. without him and madman gp4 wldnt be as advanced in editing terms.

cant wait for your cameditor 5 Laurent
