My workthread here

Thanks, got it. Will start painting

I just run trough topic and see this mod in progres wich look very promising and with patience wait this mod.
I have 2 qustions (sorry If repeat someones questions, I not read all
1. What I know IRL cars have 2 or maybe 3 types of body. Will they bee included or it will just one.
2. For this one I may know answer but I give it a shot: Do you have plans for smoe of IRL tracks (maybe in future)
I hope so that these are not stupid questions, sorry if are.
Thx

P.S. Sorry for my (terible) english

1. Both Panoz and Dallara shapes will be included, but in only one aero package of the three existing (Superspeedway, Speedway and Road Course/Short Oval) for each shape.

2. I began to work on Indianapolis oval, but now I'm very busy with school and I'm at home (where I have my own computer with all my GP4 files) only during weekend. Add to this that I'm not talented in shaping, which implies that I will only be able to make the track itself, and not any building or graphical object (I know I could import some of them from original Indianapolis track, but the fact that the track is different make that more difficult).

I saw a screenshot of Scheckter/Carpenter car in this thread from Tahlendorf, what happend with it?

i've offered to help with Indianapolis track graphics side as i'd like to see this oval in gp4.....i have some free time & could help out if needed.

@Great.M.Surfer : I don't know, these cars were made before I came in, it seems that most of the cars done at this time have disappeared.

@jimbob : thank you very much, i'll try to finish the .dat file as soon as possible.

Thx Gusgus for infos

@Great.M.Surfer : all I could find is this :



IMO, it is not the most difficult logo to re-do from scratch

My workthread here

Im going to start the Ganassi car again tonight. I started remapping it, so the sponsers would look better. However, to be honest, I can't be bothered remapping the whole car now. I'll start it again tonight with the orignal mapping and see how it looks. If it doesn't look good, then I'll go back to the remapping.

If anybody has any hi-res images of the ganassi cars, then please send them to me. Especialy the nose cone.

paul..

@airefresco : check your PMs

Could you sent me that template too? great.m.surfer@gmail.com

Here's a pic of the 99% finished Giaffone car, only driver body and numbers. Can somebody render it? Raul? (A)

Actually, The track is exactly the same. Plus, IIRC, last time i looked ALL of the Speedway was in the GP4 File. Just a few walls in the way. Although this route has all the Grandstands done (Nothing on the backstretch, well, xcept a golf course).

If you need to know somethings bout the speedway or need someone to look at it (Wink wink), Ive seen WAY to many laps at Indy... I know plenty of stuff bout it :D MAKE SURE THE FLIGGEN WALLS ARE WHITE. (yet to see an update to Indy that has them..... DOH!)

remember, EVERY corner is EXACTLY 440 Yards in Radius. EVERY Corner. 5/8 mile straights.


The Flanker is gone.

@smorr : don't worry, I made the track with real dimensions of the speedway (front/back straights are 5/8 mile long, short chutes are 1/8 mile long, corners are 1/4 mile long, widht : 50 feet in straghts and 60 feet in corners, max banking : 9° 12'...), it is only 5 meters longer than the original. The track is now on jimbob's hands (in fact it will be on Fridays when i send the .dat to him), which secures a really good quality. It will be made from scratch with hi-res aerial photos of it from [local.live.com].
