I started a race in montreal with david coulthard.During the first lap I spun off in between and lost my left front wheel and front wing.I limped back to the pits to get it fixed.By the time I came out 1st place driver was about to lap me.So I parked the car in the gravel trap.And in anticipation to see the engine fire animation.I removed the auto shifting aid.Put the car in nuetral, and revved till the water temp gone more than 126.white smoke started coming.I evaded the marshall from trying to push me back in by moving the car when he came out so that he goes back.Like that finally I stopped revving and flames came out.Now the marshall again came out and stated pushing my car.I wanted to see the point when the flame and black smke stated and watche the replay.When I resumed play I saw that the marshall went back behind the barriers and the car itself went to the front barrier and started trying to be raised up.It was still ina motion as if it was being pushed.See these screenies.




Strange!!!;)

Guys I have tested over and over again and I state it is a bug.Just try to leave ur car and let the marshall come to push it back.now in half way while he is pushing the car.Press pause and see the replay .Now come back and u will see that the marshall goes back and the car is moving backwards itself.

gpx has always had some problems with the replay system, although little ones.

since gp2 this sort of things happen, mostly with big crashes (at least I always had them with big crashes), its like you have a great crash with 5+ cars, and you want to see the replay, so you push P + R and then you see all the cars just driving without colliding into eachother, and your own car just goes slower and slower until it hits a wall or something. I think it's because gpx sometimes "forgets" what was happening or so.

I found a bug as well. When I dropped my CD out of the window (11th floor), it landed on the street. A 40t truck went over it before I could get it off the track. Unfortunately Lumpy, the dog of my neighbour, thought I was about to play with him, grabbed the CD with his teeth and took it into the garden and finally peed on it. My neighbour then went over it with his lawnmower.

When I finally got back to the PC with the CD, Gp4 refused to start. It gave me a "cannot read from CD" error.

I tested it over and over again, still everytime I recreate the bug, it is always the same. Up till now I have bought 32 Gp4 CDs who all have the same bug.

I think this is typical Infogrames.








REHAB IS FOR QUITTERS

Yes, typical of Infogrammes as they must have made a lot of money out of it! ;)
