GP4 crashes every time I load all my tracks mods [error log]

When loading one of my tracks like Barcelona 2013 for example, the game crashes for no reason. Same thing for the 2014 version except it is at the end of the loading that the game crashes

[www.transfernow.net] error lag for the version 2013 mod

The log suggests it's a problem with the Red Bull car, rather than the track.

I haven't tested all the other cars yet but chances are the log will show the same problem

The log is pointing to the Red Bull car (barge board or tyres [rays tread tyres] by the looks of it). To eliminate the car as the problem, you could edit the cars.wad (make a backup) - and replace the Red Bull lods with renamed lods from one of the other cars.

Chances are though, if you're using the 2014 mod, it would be quicker to re-download and re-install it, as other people don't seem to have the problem.

1. I'll try to do this to see if that fixes my problem.

2. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mod 2014 version but the problem persists. In this case, I will send you an error log link for this version

1. Have you re-downloaded the 2014 mod though? Your version could be corrupted and still appear to work.

2. Have you re-installed the mod using TomMKs installation as a base? (That's usually the most stable starting point).

1. I am using this version Grand Prix 4 MOD 2014 - 30.11.2014 v0.75.1
2. I was using it which could be found on the Abandon Ware site

The log clearly shows a problem with the RedBull car. Fix the problem there. It's not the track, it's the car that is at fault. Also, in my sig is a link, click it and download the original wad. Restore your wad to original in case CSM is not properly restoring the wad. Keep the clean wad on file and use it for restoration.

Well, I'm going to do that this self if I can because I'm not at home sorry

I have made changes and nothing changes. The version always crashes my game. I tried with the 2014 version, it does not crash while loading a track but I will have to keep testing this.

why open this thread when you already had one???

In fact, Mortal renamed my thread name to just add error lag. He also asked me to recreate a topic so that people can see it and help me with this problem

You say you've made changes. Changes to what exactly? How about in your posts you describe what changes you made. There's a serious lack of information here on your part, yet you expect us to know what's going on. I've just downloaded your latest gpx file and it's blank! No data at all, just a blank text file, same for the graphics.cfg. Where is your information that will tell us what version track the log output is from?
After asking you to create a new thread I wrote DISREGARD, as I edited the topic header for you instead. No matter, I will now delete your other post. Just keep in mind we require clear and concise information to nail down what is happening. Please upload any future error logs to [pastebin.com] as what you're using is not working properly.

EDIT: I just noticed that Firefox flagged your txt uploads as containing malware or a virus, please use pastebin.com in the future for your error logs. Failure to do so will see the post deleted.

I have verified that my files that I put on this link that I put yesterday, and they are not empty yet. Okay, I'll reupload them with your link that you proposed to me and we'll see that. This is the same as the other f1graphics.cfg file at this link [www.mediafire.com] Windows Explorer tells me "this file would contain malware or virus"

[pastebin.com] for my error log
[pastebin.com] for my files f1graphics.cfg

Your txt file shows that the track loads successfully, but the game fails because of a RedBull car. I believe you have already been advised on how to fix that problem.

Cannot do anything on the WadUpdater software because I don't know which one I should select to restore my car, cars.wad (which can be found at D: \ Grand Prix 4)

On the 2019 version, I don't have this BUT the tracks 2019 like Baku for example are replaced by the tracks 2001 of the original GP4

You need to download the tracks separately and then install them. In most cases, there isn't a track pack available. There are lots of tracks available, try using the search function on the forum.

ok, I found some like for example the tracks of F1 2011. But I will try to install them if I succeed.

Your fault is not with a track, it is with the RedBull car. Downloading another track will not help at all. Restore your cars wad to original using the backup. Test GP4 without using CSM. Delete any mods that will not load properly. Download a full mod that includes cars and tracks. Test. On exit, restore the wad file if CSM fails to restore. Delete the wad cache as well. If you have success, edit your topic header as [Fixed].
