GPxPatch 4.43 [Released]

Hey Doug,

of course I'm using my own setups. These cars fly through the Corners and I'm not able to keep their speed. So it seems to be a good saetup but my driving skills are not as good...

I'll create an issue René, thanks!

Thank you Rene for your hard work on GPX patch and other works. I was thinking, Where would we be if not for your hard work.
GPX Patch is the best add on to GP4 and i thank you for you efforts.
regards to all

Thanks munnzy.

Well, finally I found the time to test this. The sidewalls are not white anymore, they are somewhere between white and gray and they all have four yellow OZ-Logos on them. Yes, the logos are on the sidewalls, and not on the rims. But the question I have is: Shouldn't be sidewalls and threads completely independent from each other? Why is it possible to combine anything else like I want to? I think there might be still a little bug inside GPxPatch, would you be so kind to take a quick look at this topic again Rene? Thanks.

You can't combine 97 treads and 2013 sidewalls (which is what I assume you're trying to do according to your previous post) due to different mapping.

I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

Well, I have no idea what is different mapped there. The tyres look like having an identical shape, just the sidewalls are inside out or something like that. Would you explain me what's the problem with the different mapping then? I want to learn it.

Certain tread textures need a special wheel shape to map the tread texture onto the whole tyre. So you should use tread textures that match the wheel shape, which contains the texture mapping.

I try back the failure system, trying to play with original 1991 failure rates ( [1991mod.drivingitalia.net] ), since they've always work well on all distance, from 20% to 100%. At the beginning i've used the same values, but almost all cars run till the end (just one retire). So since those values were for team, i twice them to see if they works better. And they does. Here the results (i delete the LAPS pharagaph since is futil)

30% lenght race (21 laps) INTERLAGOS

DNF drivers

Driver        Causes           Failure Prob. 

Modena       accident          16384
Capelli      suspension        21504
Bayley       transmission      14832
Nakajma      transmission      16384

Checkered flag drivers with failure points

Driver        Failure Prob. 
Blundell      14746
Martini       16542
Guglielmin    21504
De Cesaris    14814
Gachot        14814
Moreno        12228

So almost close to what i expect, but less efficent than team failure rate.

My workthread with all RELEASED and WIP stuff

compare the '97 tread and wheel textures to the 2013 ones, then you should quickly see what I mean.

Another thing i found is since 4.43 the poleman start slow as hell in each race (power and grip). Someone else can confirm that?

My workthread with all RELEASED and WIP stuff

it isn't impossible to change the tyres with a different mapping. You just need an image editing software like Photoshop or GIMP
