2 Questions

1. Any way to have the stands full for the practice sessions at a GP?

2. Any way to increase the duration of the 'warm down lap' at the end of a GP?

1. probably.

2. look in gpxlap.ini and change this:
[Misc]
RaceOverDuration=30

the 30 is in seconds.

i think i'll leave it then!

in response to the first question, is there any way to have the stands empty for a race?

That would be good for me too :D

I guess same thing, but in reverse, renaming textures?

Same (reversed) question, same answer : you need to rename objects one by one.

try replacing all the crowd textures with a 1x1 transparent one

lol, that could do the trick to delete all crowds but they will also be invisible during the races...
and no need to use a 1x1 texture, i even advice you to keep original sizes.

But some of us want no crowds in the race, to reduce PO :D

yeah, so use 1x1

if you want to get rid off the flag wavers, edit the exe and remove them.

lol, removing crowds will surely not reducing PO

Anyhow, if you really want to make it invisible, you can completely disable crowds objects from the F1graphics file, just change this line:
1 ; [MAIN VIEW] Draw crowds (0 => off, 1 => on, 2 => on and animating)

and replace 1 by 0.

It adds 30% to my PO, from doing testing!!

I lagged back in the race to simyulate just one car on track, then went on practice and the difference 'cos of the crowd was about 30%!

how bout race with no objects in graphics settings so the track looks like a huge airfield test track with curbs scattered...

made my gp4 run like it was on drugs

Nah-I like to feel enclosed. Wide open spaces are scary!
