befor you laugh...and think am stupied...
the game crashed when changing CC lines...right.?
screw them...who need them...
i mean ...if you use a steering wheel...make the steering help off..
keep the cc line as it is....
it works if we just want to driver solo on a testing track...
like i can play on Valancia...with a steering wheel with out changeing the cc line...no need for other cars..am just testing...

I'm sure there's some reason...but if there isn't then i'm gonna have a fiddle and see what i can do.

It is cool idea actually.

We could test as real F1 teams do in Jerez, Paul Ricard & Fiorano

changing the track layout makes the game crasg too ;-)

great :)
someone should just make a complete track editing program, but it is very hard to do because you have to change the tex files and the shapes, but soon i think that track editing will be possible

um the shapes and tex files are the easy part :S





I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
we should just write to geoff and ask him for the program he made

yes lets do that, so lo2k (and others not to forget) worked very hard to create a trackeditor for nothing, that would be gratefull.
Besides, Geoff can't give you any of those things even if he wanted, it rights are owned bij hasbro, so he would in big trouble. and even if he could, he wouldn't.

but if all the other GPx games had a CC line, wouldn't it all be similar in the way we edit it?

Really ?
Maybe because you tried to play a race (and thus using the old cc-line) and not in free run.
On my side, I'm pretty sure we can edit track layout quite heavily without crash (do you remember my screens at monza where i was driving up to old banking track before getting back to usual line ?

The only thing to check is to keep sectors at about same distance each from others (as original ones) and everything will be fine.


About cc-line, believe me, it's the hardest thing i have ever coded so far and I have still to work on it before to get it working.
So maybe did we have luck with GP3 as game was somewhat tolerant to cc-line changes, but it seems GP4 is more demanding on cc-line definition precision and that's surely why we get some much troubles with it so far.
CC-line editing is on a good way anyhow.

Where's Paul Hoad when you need him?
yeah , cc-line is on a good way , I chanhed the cc-line heavily at barcelona without crashing ... just the sector length was messing me :S

oh...i have't thought about that...
anyway we all appreciate the gr8 work you did so far...
todays...i thought how silly it is...
not being able to change the tracks...
its so near...but also so far...
to be honest ...Gp4 like this sucks...
nearly all tracks have been changed...
the other day i was playing In Bahrain...gr8 job has been done..but not enough...
cause every lap i had to remind my self...(this is Bahrain...this is Bahrain)
and all what i was thinking...(A1...A1...A1...A1...)

That's a smart idea. Why did nobody think of that earlier?

Don't make fun of Lo2k!
just because he doesn't understand the track format completely ;)
