Sweet, new version is coming... Thanks, Rene! Do your best to fix everything that must be fixed and do not hurry!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
There are plenty of mods for it but regarding the development of the patches 1.02/1.03 it's better to play the vanilla game for now. In the end we will have really the best F1 manager game.by georgibg - Other Games
Every GPx game have that problem. The solution however is listed above.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Amazing pictures, awesome track!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
I want just to point out that the BSOD problem is not because GPxPatch. I had just tested the game without GPxPatch with 3D settings enabled and again I saw this beautiful screen... In other words: "problem solved". Thanks for your reading.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
A few months back in time I was having problems with the track shadows - they were popping up all the time and this was not eye candy stuff for sure. Disabling them was some kind...strange. But thanks to the community here I managed to did this and now I will share it with you. If you have the same problem your solution is here: Q: What is this? A: Basically this is f1graphics.cfg file whby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
No problems with this, Im just reporting IF anything can be done. It's just strange that I have the same problem on 2 totally different machines...by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Usually the solution is to download this dll file and place it into the main game directory. The other way is the solution provided by you.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Here am I with the latest report: GPxPatch was tested with everything on: 3D engine sounds, disabled fake sounds, 3D pit siren and 2D event sounds. I confirmed that when I use 2D acceleration in-game and 3D is not enabled the other cars sounds are louder than my own engine. This time I tested GP4 with my PC: BSOD everytime when I use every option in the 3D sounds section including 3Dby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Okay Rene, now I will return to one common problem from the past: the sound... For some reason the car sound of the player's car is too low compared to the sound of the other cars. I can confirm that because I use default sound configuration in which your engine must have louder sound that the engines of the opponents. Good news is that using 2D and 3D sound acceleration actually now worby georgibg - Grand Prix 4

This looks more like the upcoming F1 2013 (crap) than GP4! AWESOME, GREAT, SUPERB JOB! But what about the frame rates? Any difference?by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
The laptop mod is just something awesome! I was almost crying when I tried the 2012 mod and the frame rate was 5-8 FPS on my laptop. Something like this and STANDALONE is just awesome! On my laptop the only problem with GP4 are the popping up shadows which I must disable in the f1graphics.cfg. I have Intel GMA 4500M (256MB) and I don't know what exactly causes this problem.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Good to know that there are regular updates. Keep it up!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
So Rene, have you got any plans about GPxPatch 4.23 or the wishes list is finally empty? I wonder for what can be capable your program. I believe that it will be possible to be used not only for TSM but also for CSM. It will be awesome if thanks to GPxPatch we can switch tracks and carsets without even installing them (they can sit in separate folders). In this way we would switch mods even fasteby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Why to play GP4 when we have GP3 2000 with your mod? The answer is: play GP3 2000, for get about GP4 and enjoy! I will test the new version now by the way.by georgibg - Grand Prix 3
Great work again! Thanks a lot!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
You need to install: the latest GP4 patch - 9.6 GPxPatch ZAZ Tools And you are ready to go! After downloading this stuff you only need to install yiur stuff which is done for about 2 or 3 clicks.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4

The last test which I had done was with 3D sound only (eax or stereo not included) - the result is the same. Do you have an idea for other tests (in terms of sounds)? Anyway you have a progress here. At least the GPxPatch 3D sounds are working properly now. EDIT: Hopefully you can work more in this area.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Test results: I had enabled 3D engine sound and 3D pit siren, everything seems to be okay in 2D sound emulation. When I switched to 3D and tried some things with the options the game was still running fine but after 2 laps the engine sound is getting strange noise like th-th-th-th-th..... This noise does not exists when Im using 2D sound in the game options. I don't know if you can reproduceby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Im going to test the sounds now. Good work, Rene.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
By the way what will happen if I enable the "fix pit stop bug" and how can I remove the speedometer from the cockpit view?by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
I will test every sound option in 4.21 too. Thanks for noticing this and for the attention. I will keep you informed.by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
I have had totally 4 BSODS directly (I don't know the exact reason but it was something about the sounds). With the original game - no problems. But if Im using 3D accelerated sound with EAX or the second option (at all if Im using 3D sound) the laptop crashes! I had changed the GPxSound a few times to check from where was the error coming - no success. 3D engine sound gives me very silent sby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
So this mean that we finally managed to pass the 8 km hard coded limit? This will be/is amazing!!!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Strange enough but it's working!by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
Well guys maybe I had mentioned this before but yet again is the same and...it's bad. When Im driving the shadows of the enviroment around the track just pops up right in front of me (it's not there all the time but pops up right before I get there)! Is there is a way to disable this shadows? Im using Intel GMA 4500M built in video card (laptop) with the latest drivers already insby georgibg - Grand Prix 4
By the way if we talk about keyboard...when will be possible fine drive with it (without steering help). I know that GP4 Tweak can disable it but the result is horrible! That is my biggest wish for the whole game (if we can achieve control like rFactor or F1C).by georgibg - Grand Prix 4
