Once upon a time ago, CTDP did some pioneer work for GP4 and some mods today are still built up on this base. CTDP was the first group that modded the tires/rims in gp4, we were the first group that started building cars in such an amount of work and dedication. I'm still very proud that we were part of this time, when the gp4 community started to work on "their" game. 5 years ago, i never thought, that we were so successful in many ways. We presented our mods on TV and at the Games Convention. We showed our mods in game magazines and we have good reputation in public, maybe even more in gp4 than in the rFactor or in the old F1 Challenge Community. It was really hard for us, even for me to leave gp4 about 3 years ago. We thought F1 Challenge and then rFactor is giving us a better base, but that's only the half truth.

I found a lot of friends (Tony, Erix, Fongu) and current CTDP members in this community (Dahie, Kizz, Enzo, Rob and many more). I'm still looking a few times per day in this forum to see what's going on. So I never really left this community. And now to my offer:

CTDP wants to be more active in gp4 community again and we really need help for that. That's one reason, the second reason is, that the rFactor/F1C community didn't bring new talents for years and in gp4 community we see so many new people come up every year.
CTDP wants to coach your talents, when we see the potential for that.
The rFactor-Community in comparison to GP4 is bigger, but for newcomers it's hard to display themselves. It's hard to find them, GP4 is a great plattform for young modders, because the chances to get attention are better. That's why we are constantly looking around here. What we find are many dedicated modders, who deliver very good work, but are unexperienced in some regards. We would like to help on this and let people share of our expertise.

I think Dahie can tell more about coaching because, he's the 2D Artist coach.
Concerning the 3D part, i have learned a lot in the last 3 years, partly through the community, through the "Digital Animation" course at the SAE and imo the best and most things in production with help from the company I'm working for almost one year. My main part is still modeling, but i learned a lot in lightning and rendering,too. So in 3D we have a good base, for all 3D Applications. I know the most recent functions in 3D Studio Max, Maya and XSI. So our 3D guys will profit by my experience.
To say exactly what we need and want:
- Somebody, or more guys that take our mods we're building for rFactor and convert them to gp4. That should be kinda second "pipeline" in our "production".

- Another thing as i mentioned, we need 2D and 3D artists for our future projects. We haven't planned them till now, but e.g. our 1994 mod needs some helping hands,too.

We need especially guys in the track area, coz we're kinda stuck with our monaco progress. As i mentioned before we're coaching the guys, so they can get some experience how it can be done "professional". We want to do more in the track area, we thought of doing Aida 94 and some other 94 track modifications.

What we don't need are fully professional modders. We don't mind them of course. You don't have to be a crack at what you do. We want to make you one.
What think is most important, we think is dedication. A mod takes time and we take the time to make it good.

So if anybody is interested please contact us here in the thread by showing your current work. I'm planning to contact some of the guys here in the forum anyway...
