ross111r, amazing textures!! I guess they are Viper's ones, right??
Would you mind sending those textures (French and British GP) to franfapi@hotmail.com??? If could zip them, much better, because I'm on 56K modem.
Thanks

My take on "permission"...

If there's a car author/builder that built their car from scratch that doesn't want me to do a NT livery of that particular car, just let me know here and I won't offer that car to anyone. When I say scratch, I mean 3D model, texture, sponsor decals, everything. Pixel by pixel. Because if ANY part of it is derived from a photo online, a polygon already in place or a color sample from a picture, then it's not truly theirs. It's theirs and someone elses.

I'm not posting my edits for mass download nor putting them online with a hidden hit counter to rave about my page visits...;) Nor am I asking or want any recognition in doing them. I'm offering a "service" to the players and fans of GP4 that might not have the time, tools or know-how to do this themselves. I'll be more than happy to sit back, keeping my minor work to myself if my offering to do this angers the authors within the community. I have no ego cart that needs to be filled.

I know I'll take a TON of abuse for saying this from some of the car authors and the moral police here. If so, then so be it.

My interests lie in helping what I think is a great sim become a total sim. NT liveries aren't a major part to GP4, but for those that strive for a sense of realism at certian venues while virtually portraying that role of a F1 driver, I don't mind trying to do a little something for them. The people that have asked me for "assistance" in doing this are probably like me. Enjoy the hell out of GP4 and just want to have everything a little closer to "right" when they run it.

The CART mod is not mine, but it is the production of Oggo.

It is on this site - GP4 - downloads- season packages - CART 2002

Runs great and looks it to

Well Vipers ferari has double the ammount of polygons of the other cars, and the textures are made in stupidly hi-res textures

Would be fine....if we all had 3ghz PCs

Y's and Bojans have a little effect on mine, starts are a bit jumpy, but otherwise its fine, but Viper has got the only good BAR 2003 texture, and the only Williams 2003 one that works on my compuer with the textures displaying correctly and PC cries over his cars

Ellis, in your Cart mod, are the cars in the right order with the helmet? I chose C DaMatta in Neman Hass and got him in a PWR Racing? Does yours have this prob... if not, can you email me your anim and cars.wad to decorusmortis@aol.com

Thanks :-)

why dont you resize or use lower res textures, ellis?
as for NT, i don't understand why the original authors dont release them. They should have layered .psd files where you only have to turn of a layer in many cases.
I've done my own set and the french bar one is the only one that i've had difficulty with.
As for hi PO with some cars. In the ITC mod i had big problems because i was using a 'good' 1024x1024 texture as a base to load,replace,save as the itc ones. problems occured when the one i replaced wasn't 1024x1024.
so using gp4 master the file you replace has to be the same size as the one you replace it with. i guess this is well known but i suspect some of my 03 tex's may have this problem.
during loading see if the bar stops for too long between about 10-50%. thats when the carshapes and textures load.

doesnt really help when the shape has double the poly count of 3 other cars added up

ye.
i have a similar setup to yours and run full 03 set quite well. 26fps i think and po 50-150.
some shapes are based on originals and the textures work on the originals.
ie Erwin & Guyon's Toyota is 362kb but the textures look fine on original bar shape so its possible to use those as lower lods.
my jag is all 600kb+ lods
ferrari all 430kb
williams all 280kb
toyota all 360kb
bar all 360kb
mclaren 3 at 650kb 2 at 67kb
32.2mb of lods in all and it works ok. you could probably halve that.

my system is osmeting like:
1.4
512ram
40gb
geforce2mx400?
31.00 drivers
i think i read yours was similar, no?
