F1 1997 v2.0 - Release on 24/04/2024

The ones Soulbringer has been working on, they look fantastic! I think his priority is getting the 2002 ones finished first.

That’s quite surprising, I thought the only HQ 1997 car was the Arrows one...

You have found HQ Jordan, Ferrari,Williams and McLaren?

Yeah would love to see Soulbringers 1997 cars finished, but there were the VRC cars that were converted, the Williams and Ferrari? I'm surprised they haven't been included in the mods.

Yep, this is the situation at the moment.

I'm updating the car cams for the original cars which are not in hd, then the mod is ready for a new release.

You're right Ruben! As soon as I can I do an update.
Thank you for your efforts!

Soon i will post pics of the very nice car cams. I will release mod 2.0 with the original cars, but with new tyres.

OK it's fine for me!
Release mod 2.0 whenever you want!

Tweaker settings are done, release is like corona getting closer.

That's great news, unlike corona.

Guys I have a bug with the driver's "gloves / hands" for all cars and teams (including AI), all of them don't have the usual gloves but instead the teal hands that look very weird with the rest of the car. ( see pics below )

I want to note that this happens only with this mod (1997 v1.5), as other mods that I use in CSM have the normal gloves that are similar to the vanilla version.

Do you guys have any idea or suggestions as to how to fix this? (and yes I have re-install GP4 and everything GP4 related like CSM, Zaz, gpxdata, save files etc.)

There is no bug.
Unfortunately it is the gloves that are made like this, not very well to be honest ...

But you can replace some of them with these facts by Hega: [www.grandprixgames.org]

However, an HQ version of 1997 Mod is in the works, so stay tuned!

Thanks for the reply. These look awesome!

Does this also mean that I can replace the remaining teams with other stwheels found online (for 90s or early 00s mods) or will that crash the game? ( I don't mind changing the wheel shape as long as I dont have those awful gloves xD )

Sorry to bust in without waiting for an answer, I just found a very cool external wheel + gloves that looks awesome on all cars and fits really well with arm colors (I believe it's based on a Stewart 99', without any logos or brands). I'm gonna use that instead while I wait for your proper wheels in the HQ release. In any case, if you want to check them out / use them as a "placeholder" for the moment, let me know!

Of course yes! You can send it to me!
In the end it could be fine for my 1999 Mod!

I sent you a PM with the download link.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it publicly here, in case anyone else would like to use it for their own play-through. If it's alright please let me know.

Are there any updates or screenshots you can share? Can’t wait for this 1997 HQ mod. It’s one of the best seasons thanks for keeping the dream alive!
