Thanks Quickslip, From memory, this is what I was looking for. Looking forward to doing some fine tuning.by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Thanks for your help so far. My 2005 folder was manually set up, I didn't use CSM. That is probably how my pit crew vanished. I either deleted them in error or misplaced the required file(s). What files are required & where do they go? I still need an answer to my question 3. Does no one else use this effect or feel it does not enhance the driving experience? Also, is anyone ablby Lee - Grand Prix 4
After unsucessfully trying to get GP4 to work as well under Vista as it did with XP, I pretty much gave up on it nearly 3 years ago. Having switched to Windows 7- 64 bit, it seems to work well & my interest has been rekindled. I have installed the origional game, pached it, installed the latest GPxPatch & set up my wheel & everything appears fine at the moment. I have made a copby Lee - Grand Prix 4
Anyone able to help guys? I've tried everything I can think of to no avail. Don't understand it at all. It worked fine with my old Vista installation on the same computer. Believe I installed Tweaker 1.0.4.5, then update 2 & then Tweaker Reload. I presume there are others out there using Tweaker with Vista? Hope to hear from someone. Thanks.by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Thanks rosberq91, I tried this but still got the message 'unable to open GP4 file! Make sure GP4 not running & no other applications accessing GP4 files.' Any other ideas please?by Lee - Grand Prix 4
I have just re-installed my system using Vista Ultimate. I previously had GP4 running very well on Vista. I use Tweaker a lot, prefering to make amendments manually. I especially like the FF effect that Tweaker allows, the thump when you hit a kerb. I find the standard GP4 FF to be quite feeble. My problem is that Tweaker will nor install, saying that it can't find the GP4 exe (which iby Lee - Grand Prix 4
Hi Vesuvius, Do the programable buttons work & what do you think of the wheel?by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Hi, Does this wheel work with GP4 & Vista? I have a Microsoft Sidewinder FF that I have been pleased with for 6 years & it works with Vista. The problem is that I can't customise the buttons in Vista & miss this feature that worked with XP. From what I can find on the web, the Momo wheel has customisable buttons &, as there is a Vista driver, I assume they work underby Lee - Grand Prix 4
Marianodc, To avoid messing up your working copy of GP4 simply save the whole folder to another location & then you can do whaterver you like to your working one in the safe knowlage that if you screw it up you can simply replace it with the origional. This has got me out of trouble on several occasions.by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Problem Solved! It was the video driver. I have been using the Nvidia beta 80.40 with no apparant problems. Switched to latest official driver, 78.01, & everything now works fine. Would love to know why driver only effected qualifying though.by Lee - Grand Prix 4
I don't think it is as it has worked fine before & as far as I can recall I have made no changes to either my game or computer since the last time I used qualifying, 2 or 3 weeks ago. Also, I have 4 different versions of the game & the problem effects them all. This is why I wondered if it is a GPxPatch or Tweaker problem. But I can't find any settings in either of them thatby Lee - Grand Prix 4
Can anybody give me any assistance please. I have spent all afternoon on this & don't have a clue what is wrong. The problem even happens on my default install version of the game. Why on earth is it only happening on the qualifing session?by Lee - Grand Prix 4
I have never had this problem before. I have 4 versions of GP4 set up & all were running fine. Today, for no apparent reason, the game freezes as soon as the track is loaded for each qualifing session & none of the keys respond & neither do any buttons on my wheel if I try using this. If I press & hold Escape key for about 30 seconds the game will go back to the 'abandoby Lee - Grand Prix 4
If you have updated using the 2005 mod & CSM it seems to automatically default to 18 FPS (it always does for me anyway). If this is the case, just change the FPS either in the game, advanced graphics options, or in the graphics config. file. Hope this sovves your problem.by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Please help! Whilst trying to manually update my cars wad to 2005 I have accidentally associated all .lod files to Photoshop & cannot change them back.

I am looking for a full 2005 helmet set with instructions on how to install. I have loaded a 2005 set using a hi-res helmet shape from 2004 but some of the drivers are in the wrong cars & the two Toyotas are screwed up or, after further messing about, all white. The helmet set contains 20 textures so I presume as I am running 22 cars at present this is why the Toyotas are wrong as I am runby Lee - Grand Prix 4

CSM 1.25 ver 31 refuses to run on my system, consistantly giving 'unable to read memory' errors at completely random times. As a result I have been using ver. 29 with no problems.

I have updated my 'everyday' GP4 folder with the 2005 mod using CSM & have made it permanent.

I have update the standard GP4 folder many times with very few problems but this has me beaten. At one point I deleted the cars wad by mistake but GP4 ran as normal!by Lee - Grand Prix 4
Found it! You were both on the right path. My Spa track gave me the same problem. I renamed dat 14 to dat 15 & visa versa & everything now works. Error probabably occured when I overwrote all the tracks installed with CSM by my R. Lampert 2004 updates from my GP4 2004 folder. Thanks for the fast replies.by Lee - Grand Prix 4

Thanks Zaz & Joeku. Have got my wheel installed & working. Not quite sure how but I am understanding a bit more of how CSM works each time I read the instructions. Two more points. I have downloaded & installed CSM 1.25 - build 31 & it now crashes most times giving an error message re. memory allocation. The previous version was very stable.

Can anyone help please? I have installed the 2005 mod & made it permanent. It works fine, no problems so far. However I wish to install my prefered steering wheel which is not part of the mod.
