I also have this issue but with GP3v1.13- Starts and wet races are horrifically slow unless i start from pole.....handy at monaco...not!

thanks again drafi, worked fine this time!! Have installed and will test it later...in 1972 spanish gp....by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
thanks for sending me that drafi, regrettably my hotmail decided to block the attachments, perhaps cos they are exe. files? Have never had that problem before! Is there any chance you could send them as zip or rar file please? Thanks!by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
this patch sounds exactly like what i need-where can u get this at the moment with the download section being down?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
thanks for the tracks claudio! And i will check that in gp3 edit- is bellini grip patch compatible with all versions? Should mebbe add i am racing a retro 70s carset lolby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
some things for me to try as well- have to say i find the default settings to be fairly good- nearly always end up slower once i start playing with the setup lol. apart from once at kylami when the default wing setup was so lw my car took off down the main straight..............biggest crash i ever had so far! Any tips on lift off oversteer?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
does altering the grip setting in gp3 edit have any effect on player control cars? Im having an issue where i am way quicker than my teammate, and probably too fast for the other cc cars as well bearing in mind i am not driving the best car! have tried tweaking the physics file but doesnt this affect all cars? Similarly dont want to adjust bhp in gp3edit as this will presumably affect my teammateby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
i have also had this but generally when a lot of stuff is happenin on screen, such as at the starts, particularly when there is a pile up at first corner- which due to the slow down i end up getting involved in haha. wuld also recommend turnin off your internet whilst playing-maybe some program or windows/antivirus is d/l something thus eating up your processor? My PC is only single core but caby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
ok i have re read the tutorial and believe i am following the correct way to create a season. I manually entered a entry list for 72(didnt do the flags and so on- is this vital?),used free contracts option, created the 3 databases asked for, (campaign,hall of fame and season, but when i click on the create season icon i get a "runtime error 75" What does this mean?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
how exactly dp u import the entry list data? its asking for a per file- no idea where that is-certainly not anywhere in the gp3 directory im working with lolby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
am assuming that 5 and 6 are the paddle controls?- have never come across not being able to assign buttons on any controller tbh- what happens if u use the custom controller set up in gp3? This is what i used to put the gearshift on the paddles for mine-otherwise you cant navigate the menu on the steering wheel shown on screen if i remember correctly. But then to go up n down between carsetup n fby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
thanks for the extra info- i liked the idea about being able to track my career- 1 of the things they didnt think of on f1 career challenge on xbox...gp series pees all over them anyway lol. so i gguess you could simply tweak the carset to follow whatever your program maps out for my career pathl, but still keep liveries accurate for the year...very cool. Now if only i could work out how to to aby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
Is it possible to create tracksets that can easily be loaded via gpx? If so how? I race different era cars occasionally and would like to be able to put in more historically accurate tracks if im doing a say 70's season, but if i want to race 09 i want to be able to just tell the game or GPX to load the modern trackset. However not sure how to! Also which folder is the original trackset wiby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
Umm kinda confused!! First of all i have never used race manager before, and even having read the tutorial i dont think im quite following this! Do i have to manually create the entry list myself-presumably by inputting the data from the relevant carset of the starting season? (from gp3 edit) Where are the perf files mentioned kept within the game/carset? I cannot find one on any of theby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
set up a custom control set in game or use the profiler included with ur wheel- if i understand ur question correctly Is it a formula force wheel?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
hats off to u ivocalha, this is awesome stuff- i reckon i may use these instead of playing with real season packages lol. Then again i reckon drafis carsets are ace too-aah decisions decisions lolby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
loeb in F1 would be interesting, but i guess is that he wouldnt be fast enough in the same way no F1 driver could go and be competitive in rallying, they are just too different disciplines these days. Cant see a massive change in the relative positions of the teams next year to be honest. However much will depend on how good the renault is i reckon on whether Alonso can get in the mix, i suspecby reddwarf - F1
all depends what sorta stuff you wanna play, have a look at yamaha pacifica range as alternative to squiers if a strat kinda thing is what ur after. Marshall amps good, you can always stick f/x stuff in front of it later on.by reddwarf - Off-Topic
create carsets? Does that mean that original gp3 1.13 carsets are incompatible with gp32k?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
doesnt gp3200 edit do any of this?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
lol yea i get it- i already backed up the entire install before even patching it!- havent even installed any mods yet lolby reddwarf - Grand Prix 4
try it on a harder skill setting as well!!!by reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
What i meant was most updates that required gp32k are things like belini tracks etc which i kinda dont need if i got gp4 to run these- was wondering if the old updates would still work with gp32k- like the historic carsets and tracks i have got from hereby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
i find same thing happens for 60's carset as well- i raced in 67 carset with an f2 car an could beat everyone bar some guy called jackie stewart! Mebbe this could be fixed with magic data? No expert on this myself tho Also never understood the whole slip angle thing in APE. Doin set up on aero and suspension bit strange if you racing 1950's cars as well lolby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
Clearly i am very noob lol Do i understand that to get 2008 spec stuff you would have to collect a variety of authors cars individually? I have gp4italia's 2007 trackpack but what does the job that gp3 edit does for gp4? ie putting in drivers names in etc? I also thought GP4 builder was 4 making tracks? lots of spadework needed for me i reckon!! PS have now got a proper version of thiby reddwarf - Grand Prix 4
Finally i can get back to racing having bagged GP3 complete with GP32k on ebay for bargain price of 99p! All proper discs manuals box etc- bargain central! Problem is i dont know if i actually need gp32k cos i picked up gp4 at the same time-seems there is more modern mods for gp4 whereas gp3 has loads of historic mods which i like as well-dunno if many of em need gp32k tho? Ps i now have 2 cby reddwarf - Grand Prix 3
Yeah it does run and there were no extra cds- original box but no manual. However where it list controls for camera view there arent any and replay and screenshot functions dont work. Dunno if these are part of gpx patch or not? To edit that slightly it did run before the hardrive on my pc died so am slowly reinstallin stuff, but dont want to bother with this if its dodgy!by reddwarf - Grand Prix 4
hmm, have got it to install now- however am suspicious about whether this is a elaborately packaged copy or the original. Is there any glaring differences between the original and the copied one- ie stuff missing or not working? Game was off ebay so anything possible lol Having looked at fotos of other ones 4 sale , am not convinced this is a pukka disc. Any ideas?by reddwarf - Grand Prix 4
Ouch! lot o work there then - o well wheres the spanners? AN issue with replacing it is its agp port- out of date so not so much choice- it doesnt possess pcie ports for n easier upgrade The only other thing is that i even tried just playing the game off the disc. It ran but was trying to calibrate the gfx but couldnt save the settings-presumably because it wasnt installed therefore there wasby reddwarf - Grand Prix 4
