thx for you reply BayW, I'm folling the read me to a t but not quite getting the result. I now have some cockpits with full texture and some without (plain white) and the wheels just will not go in for me. I will just keep trying some different methods for now. Why can't someone post a complete wad file so we can all just drop in or at least a more updated tony mod.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
maybe someone could post a screen shot of Car,Cockpits,Steering wheels folder so I could make sure my files are in the right place. It's all I need to do to finish the 2009 cars nowby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
thx willb, mortal your right, installing one today lol. What wheel rotation are you using? I'm using 300° all the strenghs are set to 100 and centering spring is checked. In game I'm running about 40 to 45% force feedback strengh, seems to give a nice feel.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
My wheels are held down with allen key bolts, the great thing with the wheel, pedals and gear shift comes pre fabed ready to screw down, you made look at gear shift it is bolt ready to but I don't need it as it sticks like glue. The wheel is still selling for 299 euro (600 dollars)in Saturn (Harvey Normal equiv) here in Munich lol, cheapest we found was online for 175 euro so you have done wby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Awesome, enjoy this fantastic wheel. This is our set up here. Over the top maybe but great funby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
I'm currently adding files 2009 files to CSM, have no probs adding 2009 cars and 08 hi res tracks, looks awesome. My prob is when I start to add steering wheels and cockpits as it's just no happening for me. I open my 2009 data file in csm, then for instance I want to add steering wheels I go to Cockpits/Steering wheels/Ferrari then I see 3 more files, Cars, Cockpits, Fonts. I placeby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
thx for the tip, I'm messing around with the 2009 mod I can race at ace level, not the fastest but very competitive, just hoping to set them up with so more respect I will give it a try and see how it goes.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Hi all, I would like adjust my AI as I'm finding it to agressive, Is their a way to toy with it to make them more racey. Any help would be appreciatedby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Try this, from page one here.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
lol, hope it's not that far away it is taxing tho, I'm having trouble getting my tires right, On the soft tyres the green line takes up half the tyre, if I adjust the file a little I get no green line but a slick. 2D works and 3D wheels I get just half a wheel lol, I'm close to getting it but I can't find any help in the forum so far on it. I'm just copying and pasting inby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
For me it's totally interesting to try and piece it all together (Total beginner at this), I'm getting there with it, I have to say again these guys working on the mod's are pretty amazing and I really appreciate the time and effort I would love a "one button does all" solution but that takes time.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Could someone post some instructions or a link on how to install 2009 cars to CSM as the links in the forum here give me an error reading alot, no all but alot.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Wow.... to the guys who spent the time to do this work A BIG well done it's simply superb stuff. Well done all involved keep up the great workby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Ok, thx for the tipby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Steps I made for better graphics: Open f1graphic.cfg file in GP4 main folder Edit the first line to 1 if is isn't already Edit resolution to prefered (for me 1650 x 1050) save and close Start game and go to graphic options, DON'T TOUCH screen res, you see (640 x 480) Check Advanced graphic settings as one or more have changed (Set to high or better) Play and enjoy noby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Ok got it running at 1680 x 1050 and it's looking greatyahoo. Antialiasing could be alittle better put I assume I can make a profile for Gp4 in Nvidia Control panel. As cyberacer said DONT touch the screen resolution in the game once you have changed f1graphic file... that's where I stuffed up hehe I should read not look over lol. Also I see once you have changed the f1graphic file youby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Thx for the tips, will play around with itby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
hmmm, when I changed to 1680 X 1050 it looked more like 800 X 600, I will try again maybe I did something wrong in the file f1graphic.cfg I set 1 on the first line then edit the res to my prefered and run the game...by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
thx, tried 1605x1080 but it looked worse hehe, guess the games just no made for it. 1400x900 seems ok. But very suprised with the lack of shapness with the 2006 and 2005 mod my pc is quad core 4x2.8 ghz nvidia 9800 512 mb bla bla lol, 4 gig of fast memory should be faster enough for this game. I was expecting to see more like LFS graphics but they both look like from the late 90s hehe. GP4 aloneby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Can I run GP4 at 1650 X 1080?(native) In graphic settings in the menu I can see 1600 X 1200 so I assume their must be a way. Also reading FAQs and trying to download stuff here is not so easy as most links do not work, I see others having the same problem. I use firefox and explorer but it makes no difference, is it a setting of mine or are the links not up to date and old?by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Ok, I have the tarmac download and in the folder are about 32 tgi files, I copy and paste into resource file into nurburgring2001.wad/maps/resource folder and I see all 32 files there but still no go when I play. Bump map is off as advised.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Just read your post LWC will try it out, thx When you say add to resource folder you mean GP4 folder?by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Ok, that looks easier, I copied and pasted the tarmacmap files in but I seen no change. I see the files did not convert to wad. I have bump map set to off in menu graphics but tried on and could not see the change with both settings. Any ideas what I did wrong?by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Thx for the tip will give it a go.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
I'm trying to update tarmacs for GP4 with wadupdater but having trouble with the process. Is wadupdater the easiest tool to use or is their a better option? Maybe a link would be good to as I can not download much from the gp4 download section because of a page error.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Ok, I have GP4 with the patches running very well now, thought I would post as it maybe of interest to Vista users. But no mod on the game yet just a clean install of the the game. Things I changed after finding out some info: I opened the GP4 cd and run the exe as admin (right click on exe) I read problems can be caused with GP4 but having an exe on desktop (above my head but went with itby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Update, I set a logitech DFP up and it had less issues in the control menu, just 2 pedal axis required, still did not get a lap in tho as other issues were caused, so deleted all and will come back another time when I fresh. Final analysis for now: G25 has major issue with Gp4 Mods, missing axis and major instability in menu. Sometimes works ok in the pure form of the game GP4 the mods seeby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Thx mortal, will try this. Also I have other wheels I will let you know what happens when I use one them.by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
Cant believe it, now both PC's with the same problem, think this game is for techos and not the average user as it has always caused problems for me. Can not see the Z axis and when you try and configure the wheel the menu just goes crazy, if I turn the wheel left and right in the menu after calibrating the screen options just start to go crazy, like im waving the mouse around. Absolutely dby Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
This mod looks great, some impressive work. Is their a single download for the 2009 mod yet? or do you have to piece it all together atm into the empty mod?by Bfergy - Grand Prix 4
