"are u going to be doing a gp4 special on the cds again any time soon?" No plans to currently, GP4 pretty much bombed at retail so the interest for our readers (from past experience) is quite low... The 'kids' are mainly into FPS and RPG mods and addons at the moment.by TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
"well it depends how tall u are if its a tower or not" From an online dictionary, the word 'tower'- 1.) A building or part of a building that is exceptionally high in proportion to its width and length. 2.) A tall, slender structure used for observation, signaling, or pumping. As I said, a short triangular building is hardly a tower!by TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
Oh, and talking about PC Gamer, there's a job going there at the moment, putting their coverdiscs together, so if you're interested in games and know your way around a PC (and preferably Macromedia Director too- although there's good training available if you don't, apparently) then why not send in your CV-by TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
"Are you still working at PCF Towers then, cos I've never seen you in the mag since the GP4 review." You can see my ugly mug in the mag every month at the start of the 'Install' section, although my new 'management' role means that I'm on the opposite side of the building to the rest of the PCF team taking care of 'lots of important stuff'! &quby TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
"I don't suppose you know when we'll see a Half-Life 2 demo, do you?" I'd be very surprised if we see a demo before the game hits retail, as with HL1, where the demo arrived quite a while after the game was released, I expect them to be using all resources on getting the game out on time. It does look pretty sweet though, and will be my main justification for a serious Pby TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
Hi guys, It's been a while, thanks to Glyn for inviting me back into the fold... Anyway, not much to preport really, been mainly playing Sony's F1 2003 and Vice City on the PS2, gave up GP4 after I moved to Windows XP and the framerate dropped through the floor! Dodgy programming I reckon! Currently saving for a Cray to get a decent framerate... Just looked at this trailer ( ) foby TrevorWitt - Off-Topic
According to this story (link below), all employees have accepted redundancy so I guess we've now had the one and only patch for GP4..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Yep, as I thought with the rumours of GP4 on the X-Box being canned earlier this week, there's now news that Inforgrames is shutting down the Microprose offices that created the game, so I guess that's it, any thoughts?!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
It is, indeed, a very impressive piece of work.by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Basically, I believe Infogrames will be paying a licence fee to Geoff's company, Simergy, for the technology utilised in the game so I guess it would be readily snapped up by A.N.Other publisher if the current deal turned sour. We can hope!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
They don't talk to me mate, any more than they do you, except when they want a glowing preview/review! Seriously though, I think that this is not just a disappointment with regards the X-Box, but the decision could be a sign that GP4 on the PC has not sold well or even recouped, the considerable, development costs. So it could also be the end of the PC series too, I hope not obviously, anby TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
My German isn't fluid but the gist of this is that GP4 on the X-Box has been canned, discuss please!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Yeah, it is hard to notice much of a difference, the main thing I noticed is that there now seems to be a brief pause while changing views in the game, not really the patch we were hoping for really. And as for the 'patch for the patch' fiasco, and the lower than expected sales of the game I just hope that this isn't the last GP game we'll be seeing from Geoff..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Yeah, I'm using the keyboard too, and I'm somewhat sceptical of times in the 1:19 area being done with a default installation of the game, I really don't think the cars have that sort of time in them.. Well not when I'm driving them anyway!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
It's a save game 'scenario', not a replay, you're meant to try and overtake all nine cars b4 the end of lap 16.. I've done it loads of times, but it's a cool thing to do so that's why I shared the file..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I really should do something else during my lunch break, but I just can't leg it go..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I guess the 'Boot's on the other Schumacher now', or something..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I'd better stop now for sure, definately time to peg it back..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Let me think of another one, nope, I'm feeling a little 'stump'-ed now..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I bet he's hopping mad about your driving m8! (Just let me know when to stop!)by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Part of a new drink/driving campaign? ie you shouldn't be legless!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Jesus, you don't have a leg to stand on with that pun..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I only use a basic installation of the game for all my replays, hotlaps etc... Copies of the file to the people who've left their email will be sent out in a moment..by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I have a really cool save game, if anyone's interested, here's the background story- Austalian GP Full 58 Lap Race 1 pit-stop strategy You're on Lap 16 Running third in the McLaren behind Rubens and Michael Ace skill level (Standard keyboard control) Rubens is just ahead in a gaggle of 8 back markers headed by Montoya! Now, it is possible to overtake all 8 back markers and Rubensby TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
What, apart from myself?! I reckon Montoya is probably the fastest driver over a single lap at the moment, I like his 'take no prisoners' style overtaking manouveres too, plus he doesn't seem to have a big ego. Would like to see a decent head to head between him and that German next season (equal cars etc).. Out of the Brits I rate Jenson, mainly for his very smooth driving stylby TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
FYI, it was done using a custom setup (the default ones don't suit me) and the keyboard, both the hotlap replay and the car setup are on the PCF disc, but that's not meant as a plug for the mag! If ne1 wants a copy of the file that's going out on the September issue then choose someone for me to send it to and they can distribute it around the rest , I don't expect you to purcby TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
Yeah, I'm using a default installation to do my hotlaps and I expect everyone else to do the same, hopefully, I can rely on trust and honesty! You think? Anyway, I don't reckon anyone can beat my Silverstone time of 1:21.014 though! (He says, knowing that he's entering a world of pain with that statement..)by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
I think the sentence containing the line "on the September edition of PC Format" might give you an idea!by TrevorWitt - Grand Prix 4
