Hi all, just an update for anyone out there experiencing similar issues. Rene Schmidt was kind enough to advise me that the gpxsat functions only work when operating GP3 in hardware mode. That was the root of the issue as to why all the functions of gpxpatch didn't seem to work for me. Unfortunately in my case hardware mode causes my game to crash. Kind Regards GP2tifosoby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
That's a shame (for me anyway), I guess I'll have to keep an eye out for lower quality stuff to keep my PO under control.by GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4
Hey guys, this may be an obvious question since this is literally my first attempt at modding GP4.... If I set the overall texture resolution to high in the CSM menu the game works properly, however because my laptop is quite old I've attempted to run it in medium and low setting resulting in white cars. I have fiddled with the graphic settings in game to no avail. I'd assume that tby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4

Just an update guys... Colour issue solved itself by upgrading to GPxPatch 4.44... Regarding the other issue of not having the gpxSAT, gpxLAP, ATL etc functions working... I suspect because I'm running the game in software mode that GPxPatch is unable to utilise the graphical elements of the program. That would be the reason why only the sound appeared to have an effect. I think harby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
Good news. It's a trick I've always used with GP2by GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4
Hi jucksman, just curious... do you need to physically install it twice or can you just take your existing GP4 installation and copy/paste it to a new location?by GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4
hey guys, I know this is somewhat off topic, but here is the interview I was referring to In short when asked on being consulted on mods for GP4 Geoff said: "I have never got involved with the mods. I think that because those activities are unofficial, there was never any question of me being involved for contractual reasons." This interview was conducted in 2009. I find it fasciby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4
I'm not sure it's worthwhile wasting time and money with this game (personally)... I can't play these codemasters games without thinking about all the things the GPx games do better. The one plus is the online play but even this is redundant when you consider the quality AI in GP4 who are in many ways better than real humans because they at least follow the basic laws of racingby GP2tifoso28 - Other Games
Does anyone remember one of the interviews conducted with Geoff Crammond in recent years where if I remember correctly he was asked about releasing source code or programming new things for the game and I think he implied that he would be unable to do so for legal reasons... I'm not 100% sure but it's certainly food for thought on a very interesting topicby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 4
Hi everyone Holemad, that jump to forum button is very inconspicuous, thanks for pointing it out! I have posted the issue on Rene Schmidt's forum and if he's able to assist I will post the resolution over here just in case anyone runs into the same problem in the future. regards GP2tifosoby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
Sorry mate, this is probably a really stupid question, but how do I navigate to it? I could swear I was on there at one point but can't seem to find that section anywhere now? EDIT I can get there from a google search. I feel like an idiot now because I must have spent at least 30 minutes clicking around this site trying to find it. Thanks... and that is good news on the copy/paste, I fiby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
thanks Eric. At least now I can play the game. I have deactivated anti-aliasing, but the same issue is still active. I'm using the previous version of GPxPatch because my computer believes v4.44 is a virus and won't allow me to download it. I haven't modded anything on the game, I need to do some research because as you may tell from my user name I'm predominantly a GP2by GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
Hey Eric, I think that was the problem I had. Either way the stock game is running nicely now. The hardware mode thing isn't a big deal to me because as I understand it makes no difference to the graphics or anything... I never seem to get above 30% PO so performance is hardly an issue in software mode The annoying thing is with GPxPatch. I have checked all the boxes and everything... Itby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
update I have reinstalled the 1.13 patch and no cd exe and the game now runs nicely in software mode, as before. Hardware mode runs but causes the game to crash. Whats the difference between these 2 modes? I think turkey_machine might have been on to something when he said "The generally accepted way is to install GP3 1.13, because it fixes loads of bugs, and the No-CD is needed for seby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3

Tried reinstalling to a different location after a CClean, same problems. Looks like I may be out of luck hereby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
Bizarrely, I replaced my GP3.exe with the 1.13 no cd exe and the game booted. But Its doing strange things.. frequently crashing, forcing me to manually load the drivers names each time (the teams and drivers are blank), and once again gpxpatch boots the game but literally seems to do nothing. Thanks Moinet, I'll follow your suggestions and post back here.by GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3

Hello everybody, good to be onboard the forums. I'm wondering if anyone in the community can help diagnose some issues I'm having with GP3 in Vista... I had installed GP3 v1.0 some time ago and all went well, had no issues what so ever and the game was running in software mode with PO at a constant 20-30%. Then I decided to update it to v1.13. This process seemed to work and I couby GP2tifoso28 - Grand Prix 3
