strange pitstop bug

This game is really a surprise bag
All at once a black box appears in front of a car which should enter the pit and most of the other cars get stranded in the pit lane before they get either lifted into the air and/or later on enter the track again...
I'd like to solve that nasty bug but don't know how. Anybody knows, please?

best regards
Karl

Apparently 'Anybody' has left the forum...
So maybe 'Somebody' can help?

Will you have a "gp4_pit_monitor" file in your cars.wad (or "shared" folder in CSM)?

I have a pit_monitor.gp4 in my shared folder, yes...

Take it out and try...

Didn't change anything (as expected) - just wonder what influence the monitor should have...?

I think I should try out other tracks because I think the bug could be track related...

Hi Ariel, you were completely right. This morning I tried it out a second time and all of a sudden it worked perfectly. Before I started the game I removed the f1gstate.bak file...
Thank you for your helping hand

I'm glad I can help.

There is a saying in Spanish that says: "the fox knows because he is a fox, but he knows more because he is old."

Good to have an old fox at hand

What a relief that 'my' 15+ old Zandvoort track is not bugged.

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

In any case, I'm still waiting for the final version this year 2024.
