Track Specific Cars/Anim.wad

all cars and anim wads should be in the same main GP4 folder, just like your default cars.wad and anim.wad.

so in my GP4 folder, i have:

cars.wad
cars_silverstone2001.wad
cars_magnycours2001.wad
cars_indianapolis2001.wad


all wads should be compressed, and decompressed so you can see the folder where you can install the news cars.

will it work if you only have 3 tracks, and no others?

yeah, because the original 'cars.wad' will be used for all the other tracks, do you see?

in the original install of the game, there is only 1 cars.wad, which is used for all the tracks.

when a track is loading, it looks for a track-specific wad first, but if it doesn't find it, it loads the default 'cars.wad'.

but because i have, for example, a silverstone wad, when loading the silverstone track, it looks for, and finds the silverstone wad, so laods it.

so because there are only 3 non-tobaccco races last season (thats what my game is still setup as, GB, France and Indy) i only need 3 NT wads, plus a wad for all the other tracks. I know Canada was NT this year, so i might make another wad called 'cars_montreal2001.wad' simply by copying the 'cars_silverstone2001.wad' and rena,ing it.

i hope you understand mate.

thanks a lot, it works!

so if i have:

silverstone2001.wad
cars_silverstone2001.wad

in my GP4 directory, it should work? It dosent, what else do i do?

Goto the gpxdata folder in your GP4 install directory. Open gpxtrack.ini and delete the '0' next to 'EnableTrackSpecificcarsWad=' to change it from 'EnableTrackSpecificcarsWad=0' to 'EnableTrackSpecificcarsWad=1'. Then it should work.

how do i open it, at the moment it says not a valid win32 something when i click on it!

Use Notepad to open the .ini file.

Thanks, it works, but the helmet doesn't!!

Where can i get a Button silverstone helmet that works with Oggo's arai shape?

All hi-res helmets should work with Oggo's helmets. Most helmets for hi-res images can take any hi-res helmets. Imagine the chaos if one helmet shape used one set of textures!! Therefore all helmet shapes for hi-res helmets should work with all hi-res helmets!
