MP4-25 by igla (ver.beta RELEASED)

Chrome is poor? What do you mean? The textures come from real hi_res pictures...

About the car 2, I sent a pm to Igla a week ago, with files, but maybe he wants to do it himself.

I have tried to make ones but some faces on the side of the nose cone are disappearing above 25% of reduction. This is the first time I have got this problem with Polygon cruncher. Maybe a mistake with the mesh. So, I will try to make it again by "isolating" the sides of the nose cone. then, I will send the files to Igla, if he wants to release them.

i ll repeat my question and wait for a diff answer.

why the hell you guys need lower lods?

run the game with only lod 0 and it works properly, the cars.wad will be smaller than filed with lower lods.

one trick i did:

I opened the ORIGINAL cars.wad, copied all lods 1,2,3 and 4 ( for all cars, it takes only 7 mb).

my updated cars.wad has lods 0 from 2010 and all other lods original from the game.

i flagged best shape tires helmets on team editor and its done.

The answer is simple my friend :P
Forcing GP4 to use only LOD 0 means increase PO of the game. If you have a good pc you can use this trick but for people with a old machine is better to use lower lods

Thank you Samuele for explaing that. To run the game with Igla's Mclaren as it is takes up nearly 20 mb of space in the cars.wad. This is the same forcing Car Lod O, the game still needs to read that lod 5 times. I cannot play the game with a cars.wad much over 100 mb in total.

Thank You Samuele,,,,,,,,,,,,,good explanation. We all dont have super computers!

Glenn(Cdn)

great explanation Samuele.
i have a top computer, maybe its the reason i never realized that.

Now i undertand why the lower lods are necessary.

Right

The cars don't need all the polygons when they are far from you because you can't see all the details, same thing when the cars are at the opposite of the track (you can't see anything). That's why lower lods are useful because the processor has less polygons to manage. When you are using lod_0 (only 2 lods or the 10 lods with the same size), the processor works with the best shapes everywhere on the track (even when you can't see the cars) and with 22 cars, it may overload your PO on small or even middle PC configuration.

Thanks to both Samuele and Excalibur for clarifying all this so well. It is enormously helpful to we folk with poor PCs.

Great Job.
