Need a substitute

GP4 or GPL neither will play on my pc so which other game will give similar fun with the physics.....GTR, GT Legends or toca 3?

I say GTR. For GTR there's lots of F1 tracks available but I don't know is there any F1 mod available for it.

Have you ever tried rFactor? its better than them 3 games and theres new tracks and mods coming out everyweek

there is a williams f1 2002 for gtr with the 2002 skins on the carshape, cant remeber where i got it from, soz. whats rfactor like, worth a buy? or better wait for something to come out better cause ya know summin else better than rfactor will come out in the next few yrs

@ mztiller What are your computer's specs (processor, memory and videocard)?

Hi its a dell 9100 P4 3.0 ghz 7600 gt card and onboard sound......

GP4 locks when calibrating and GPL the sound is terrible

advice would be appreciated as i still think these are the best games ever...

GPL beats them all :P well i would be a better judge, if i managed to complete a lap

rFactor is great fun GTR is fun, but nowhere near as good as others.

So don't calibrate, just go to Options and put all settings to high manually.

But if you mean your controller then I have no idea :D You can try to install the official patch if you have controller problem.

GTR gets boring after about a week. Don't buy it.

and toca 3 is a great game if you want a variety of motorsports, and good graphics - but definitely not great if you want a f1 simulation.

tried GTR and it plays but the car shakes around a lot...GT legends is virtually the same but it wont let me drive the Mustang...so have ordered rFactor....

tried GP4 again without calibrating and crashes to desktop virtually at the staart of the race....also tried to use it under compatibility mode but no change????

My Dell is 2.4 gig and I run GP4 and GPL fine on my machine. No reason it can't work on yours either....

Any chance you could email me a copy of your game state file as this may help me get started...mztiller@hotmail.com

Have you installed any updates? Try to reinstall the game without any updates.

Thanks Guys,I tried a fresh install and did not calibrate, turned everything to low, it runs but the frame rate and the PO% is appalling, and the sound is also very bad.....

Could the onboard sound card be interfering with the program???

What sound card is good for GP4?

Nah, I've got onboard sound and it isn't bad on my rig. Of course I'm satisfied with two desktop speakers so if you are looking for wall shaking real life sound you might need a soundcard.

I can email you my F1graphics cfg file if you like...



"There are some pikeys there at Turn 10 putting tarmac down - what do you think of that?" - Martin Brundle

i would try any graphics or game state files....send to mztiller@hotmail.com

The sound is ok for me on other games like GTR but i remember how buggy it can be....
it used to run ok on an athlon 1.7 with Ti4600 and a soundblaster but it will not run OK on a P4 3gig with a 7600GT and onboard sound...

could it be to do with what is running in the background? when i crtl/alt/del the seems to be a lot there under processes?

Check your mail....

Thanks i tried your files but its no better....vey high PO stuttery graphics and sound....could it be whay=ts running in the background or the sound card? any opinions
