you're right, doing the gp4 is the easiest, but what use is a nice gp4 if it's not possible to have a suitable dat for it? i'm not interested in making a track for release, face it i'm a sloppy worker and bored quite easily, so i by far lack the patience to make a track nice and tidy, but by sorting out the dat, and looking what the posibilities are i think we can acomplish more than by just editing the gp4. be honest, editing the gp4 is no challenge at all, you can move whatever you want, to whereever you want without a single crash, you just have to line up everything. the only thing it takes is time.
Now i dont want to offend you here really, making a new grafical track is also something thats a lot of work, and face it, it has to be done sometime. but i just disagree on the fact that making a gp4 now is better. the grafical part is nice, but the fisical part is where the challenge lies (at least imho).
ok, sorry i typed all that, nor harm intended, maybe we can work together on a track, one for gfx, one for fysics
