Understanding a CSM Mod To get some inside knowledge of CSM only one way does exist: examine as many existing CSM mods as possible and learn from them. As no complete CSM tutorial or even a help file exists, it may not be easy for a interested beginner, to get into this. This little tutorial will help to make the first steps easier by giving a general overview and touching some aspects of CSM.by petrus - Grand Prix 4
skip intro needs to be checked to not find the bug Not exactly. This is sufficient but not necessary. If is not checked then if isn't checked also, the link problem does not occur either. You may say "If is checked, the bug will not show up".by petrus - Grand Prix 4

@phantaman: well, is the ZaZ GP4 Tools and GP4 detected in the windows registry and out of their suggested folders at the time of installation? @EricMoinet: I believe you need the registry keys to make the game launch Something with the registry certainly causes the freezing problem with several mods.

In this thread I want to tell you about an experiment I made recently. What I wanted to know is: Can I start GP4 (and CSM) from an external device like an USB-HD without installing it all again? From my old PC I copied the installed "Infogrames" and "ZAZ tools" to my backup HD. Because the "Infrogrames" backup has already been done some time ago, this was notby petrus - Grand Prix 4

Unfortunalely the download link for the CSM mod in the first post does not work anymore, probably due to the dropbox changes in march 2017. The GP4 Database shows an additional link for the 1997 mod by Nick and Bruno: HERE LOWER LODS. Are these mods different? If so, it would be nice if someone could update the first link.

MSchumi24: Great mod! But something is missing, for example, the teamart. The 1998 mod with the download link given in the post of phantaman is pretty complete IMHO: * Teamart (drivers, gridcars, logos) is there, only the driver picture of Jan Magnussen does not have the same structure than the others and deserves an update.

rracunis: the teamart drivers and the teamart gridcars are not corrupted , the files are bigger than normal ( i.e 200X49 instead of 400X99 for the gridcars ) according to those made by Josekast a couple of years ago . Don't know if you tried the MOD ingame or not , but it should work well , at least work well here . Thanks for this info. Unfortunately the big files are looking wrong oby petrus - Grand Prix 4
