New 3D Steering Wheel & Arms (Beta Testing)
Posted by Aerodynamics
Driver-spec helmets were on Madman's list but he's got other things on his mind and may never return to the gp4 community again. We were lucky that he gave us the right data to do this trick. I also have a tweaker dll that does the job. I think I'm the only one that has it, besides Madman. However, this dll is not compatible with the carsenabler/slipstream/visors tweak.

Is the dll that enables these in the gp4.gamer.nl pack?

yes it is, but the one that enables the 3d wheels and arms isn't, thats also the reason the movement is not as mauch as we hoped, because we had to edit the execautble to make them work, instead of using a dll

u need to make the steering wheel in zmod and save it with the helmet shape lod so its all one object
yes, and thats where hex editing will solve your problems :+
This is a file offset from gp4.exe version 1.02 decripted (taken from gpgames):
0009E11F A1 14 6F 87 00
0009E0BE 8B 0D 16 6F 87 00
0009E0C4 8B 15 18 6F 87 00
Replace with:
0009E11F B8 00 00 00 00
0009E0BE B9 00 00 00 00 90
0009E0C4 BA 00 0 00 00 90
If you apply them all, the helmet movement will freeze. You can use selective movement. The 1st row is for x-axis, 2nd for y-axis, and 3rd is for z-axis.

and what is cockpit.gp4?
any suggestions why cockpit_wheel is uneditable? maybe because it contains arms? (stupid suggesstion
)
@lord kamder:
how do you deploy or plan to deploy your arms ingame(btw - it looks great!)?
i think that freeze helmets movements is not good idea. have anybody played around with this settings? with which of them helmet and steering movements are looks most real?

just disable Zaxis movement and everything should work. thats how we did it in the gp4.gamer.nl carset.

is there a special program to edit the EXE or is it to be done in tweaker itself ? i jus wasnt able to get the 3d arms into IMG cos of this that i didnt actually know where to put those values what i saw in gp4tweaker forums, and you were exclusively committed to gp4.gamer.nl which is quite understandable .... 3d arms with IMG cockpits can be a great thing afa i see.
thanks

In the Settigns folder is a fle called patch.ini. It contains the code to patch gp4.exe (1.02) to limit the helmet movement. You can put that file in any carset you like or update your patch.ini with it's strings.
The trick is to build a steering wheel and arms/hands and add it to the helmet object of the gp4 helmet. Luca has shown a perfect example of how it's done!
As soon as I can login to my ftp I will put the tweaker files online, it may be handy for mods that do not use the slipstream effect and carsenabler.
