helmet problem

I've downloaded the new helmet pack 2004 on the site : [GP4.Gamers.nl] , I still use the old helmet shape, and it seems that that is the right decision..... But the top of the helmet is really ugly
there is one side with whole the top, right side, and the left side iss fillde with something black, I don't really know what it is


Can anyone help me please.... thx

it seems you're using still the helmetshape for the hi res helmets, but the 2004 Helmets from Jean Christophe are only for the default GP4 Helmetshape. You have to place the original Helmetshapes in the cars wad and then the new Helmets works fine

yeah it wont work, the hi-res helmets are mapped differently to the original helmet

Laurent, if you use the original helmet shape, you can use my 2004 helmets.

They are designed to fit with it and with the helmet shape with full visor made by Raymond Smits (but only the low-res version of this shape).

visit my web site to find more than 500 helmets for GP4.

Can someone tell me how to fix the problem as raised by laurent. I have the same trouble. And i too am using MRT's helmet set for 2004. Do i need to get a file out of the original cars.wad from the GP4 cd and place that in my working cars wad?

you can do that yes. look for the files:

car_helmet_00.gp4
car_helmet_01.gp4
car_helmet_02.gp4
car_helmet_03.gp4

and put them into your cars.wad

@MRT: I downloaded some helmets from your site. But I don't know yet hoiw you kan install your helmets with GP4Master. Can you explain how to do this, please.

Help is much appreciated!!!!!

It's irritating driving a Williams FW26 with the McLarens helmets!!!

If you want to install my helmets in the game, i suggest you to use carset creator 4 beta or helmet installer. It's very very easier.

But if you still want to use GP4master:

- you must decompile your cars.wad in a temp folder with the wad workshop
- open the tex workshop
- open the files files driversxx_y.tex you want to edit (xx is for the number of the driver, y is for the part of the helmet => 1:helmet and 2:top and face).
- click on replace selected file
- choose the correct tga
- Very important: click on downsample texture
- and then click on save tex
- re do that for each driverxx_y.tex files
- when it's done, recompile your cars.wad with the wad workshop.
- and that's it.

I hope this will help you.
