little things that need to be in gp4...

I totally agree with Rainey.. plus one thing...
- Hands in the cockpit view!

they say;

If you want to make your dreams real, your first have to WAKE UP!

Marc if you were listening to the movie, you could hear why there's no hands in the cockpit
And you have a better view on data anyway :P

LOL, I was contemplating saying hands in the cockpit, but I don't mind the ghost steering because I can see exactly what angle I've got the wheel at, hehe.

What was the reason Habi?

Yeh, to get a good view....

But come on!! At least they do a feature to put hands on or off!
I'm sure they can do that!

Hands in the cockpit view!

Oh no no no no no no no... unless they did it absolutely perfectly then it would look totally rubbish and would spoil the incar view altogether. I like the turning wheel on its own, it's nice and as the guy on the video said, maintains a certain aspect of history in the game.

Ladies and Gentlemen, witness a world-premiere here on [www.grandprix3.com] as I say (type) these words immortal:

ALEX, I AGREE WITH YOU

Erm IMO even if the hands weren't perfect, I'd still want them!
I just can't see a steering moving on its own as being realistic :/
Just my opinion

Some time ago I still played RS2 (MGPRS2) and there you not even have a moving wheel, hands or without. It was still a great game back then. Most games that have hands (sounds silly to me) look vey awkward. I think it was mate Boba LS who posted a pic from F1 2001 with the caption, 'Who does the steering? The penguin?' - and this is how it looked.

Yesyes i agree Vader!
Please don't take it against me

No, you won't get one. You've been a naughty boy! Contradicting elderly forum members and generally being bold as brass. Up you go into your room and switch off the light!

Hey Marc... you can just use the t-cam view if ya wanna see the hands! The cockpit view is to make it seem as though YOU are steering... seeing hands on the screen would take that away a little... don't you think? I'm a fan of the t-cam view! I'll probably use it as much as the cockpit view when GP4 comes out!

Another reason why hands weren't/arent being implemented is because of the modelling and texturing needed, they would have to create every drivers arms with the correct outfit, and that would be a texturing nightmare trying to do some good looking and accurate recreations of every pair of arms. Although I would like to see it done well, there arent many games that have accomplished this, and I don't think thats gonna change any time soon.

we want hands on the wheel.. and no penguin driving either

yo Sup

Hands on the wheel would get in the way of the LCD and be annoying at 200mph!!

use T-Cam if you want hands. They arent a nightmare to make if the T-Cam has them :p




Racing Is Life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting
Jesus may be able to heal the sick and bring the dead back to life, but he can't do shît for low fps

yeh.. but i want it realistic!! :p
I don't think formula 1 drivers cut off their hands to see properly do they?
Or at least create hands but create an option to turn them off for those who don't like them :p

If you have a wheel, you could watch your own hands

@Chris (Hobbs):

He said that they want to keep the history of Grand Prix games

Has anyone else noticed that in the 'Cpithi3_art.bmp' file, (the one for the steering wheel LCDs) there are the numbers/letters R, N, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. This is true for both the current gear and suggested gear bits.

Why does it go up to 7?

Is there a way to get 7 gears in GP3?

If notthere should be 7 gears in GP4.
