Grand Prix 3 Hi there
This is the 'pack' that I use. It is not brilliant. Some tracks are fairly basic compared to those made by Ettore. The mexico track is the wrong layout but better graphics than most. The phoenix is one I am proud of. Lots of new Jams by me including the skyline.
You are very welcome to make improvments!
1991 track pack

Grand Prix 3 Any car editors out there?
It would be great to have a 1984 carshape that takes the large wing shown above but uses a regular 1985 front of the car without the pinched nose that ruins the logos from the skin. Anyone up to to this I can explain in more detail what I mean.
Cheers

Grand Prix 3 Thanks for the compliment Shlund!
Remember, all my megapatches have these kinds of menus (except 1991, which is in progress).
As I make 1976, 1969 and 1987 these too will have menus in the same format.
Cheers

Grand Prix 3 Hi guys
As I've been making menu art for a long time I have tried quite a few formats. I finally created a smart standardized format a couple of years ago. I have now needed to go back and re-work sets to match. 1998 is done and next I need to 1991. Future megapatches will use this menu format anyway.
These standard menus are based on art from Wikipedia and and Stats F1

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
Check your email box for the best I can give you. I never made 24, 21, 29, 30, or 33.

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
I will try to get these arms / gloves done as quick as I can. They will go to your inbox, not here.
You should know that I normally make legs at the same time that i make arms to try to match the uniform colouring. But for now I will just do the arms as you've asked.
It does make a big difference is you can add sponsor patches and variations in colour to the arms for accu

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
It would be great to have different arms and steering wheels for every driver. I have just made a steering wheel for De Angelis and I am sure Mansell and Rosberg had different coloured steering wheels. Only Berger had a Smurf on his, not Boutsen. If you can find the file that is giving diffent instructions (Ini file) for each do send it to me. I followed the example of the visor

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
Check your email inbox for those arms / gloves combinations you asked for.
I'll keep thinking about how to make GPXpatch show more than one arm set or steering wheel per team. First idea didn't work ...

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
It would be good to have different arms for each driver, but I don't think it is possible. It is possible with visors, but these are static images. Arms like steering wheels are animated (they rotate) so use a different part of GPxpatch. I make both colours when the arms are different and then load the one I am racing for example if I want to race as Mansell not Rosberg in 198

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
I assume you mean you want step by step help to make other coloured arms and can put the images into GPxpatch yourself - correct? Be sure to use the tga versions of these files that I emailed you and not these bmps. There are just here so others can see and use if they want to.
Step by step for colouring the arms ... that is difficult as it depends what painting package you use.

Grand Prix 3 Hi Evandro
As it is you asking, of course! I use paint shop pro 8 for most things, but for arms, steering wheels, legs and visors I have to use Paint shop pro 7. I have to work from an existing file, where the settings are correct and the cut-out mask is the right shape as I can't do that myself from a blank file. I then paste the new selection over the old image to create a tga file th

Grand Prix 3 I should say that I have a lot of menus that JackieMatra uploaded - thanks to him. I also have 100s of books and 1000s of magazines, so when someone is making a jam and gets stuck i can track down a image to help solve a mystery.

Grand Prix 3 Hi Pirix
I'd be delighted to share all my photos with you. I have 87,000 files which is 55GB on my hard drive. 26,000 and 9GB is for 2009 alone. I am not sure the best way to share them with you! I'd be happy to make up some DVDs for you, making selections to match your 'brief'. I would then need to mail them to your home. PM me and we can work out the details.

Grand Prix 3 Here is my final adjustment to the Aida track.
More realistic tyre walls (taken from a photo) and a better concrete retaining wall. No lip and the right colour shade.
Enjoy!

Grand Prix 3 Hi Taube
You have to use the new .dat file as it allows for the customized stand traps. the graphic is from a real photo of the grey coloured sand used.
Hope that makes sense.
By the way - I have just noticed that the track side wall is not very accurate. I am going to make a new jam tonight to go around the track. I'll then update the file in Dropbox.

Grand Prix 3 I am busy making 1994 Jams to go with Shlund's much better Aida using Belini jams like Mild Seven ad and marlboro etc.
and thanks for the encouragement Ettore!
The next Megapatch will probably be 1976.

Grand Prix 3 Hi Shlund!
Thanks for your version of Aida! A great improvement on the one I was using and a really useful addition to the 1994 pack.
Another example of great teamwork in this community,

Grand Prix 3 About Aida - I have not come across a better version and do not have the skills myself to make one. The old GP2 version was better as at least you saw the back of the pit buildings as you went around the 'Piper' corner. Pity, as it is the poorest track in the set. Not one that Belini ever made.

Grand Prix 3 Hi guys
I had said that it would be may weeks before I would release my 1994 Mega patch as I have a lot of track JAMS (averts mostly) left to do. Well once I completed all the pit crews (over 70 jams) and the menus I decided that I will not do the other track JAMs any time soon as the Belini 1996 JAMs they are based on are so many, it would take so long and I’d not be able to move on to 1976

Grand Prix 3 I will release the 1994 mega patch today!
All done except update all track Jams from 1996 to 1994 - but I may never get around to that, so no point waiting.

Grand Prix 3 Great stuff Ettore and a nice bit of team work for this revised version.
I am glad that you are choosing 1987 as your next pack, as that year is on my list for a mega patch (but not before 1994, 1976 and 1969) so late 2015 early 2016 will be a good time.
BIG THANKS!

Grand Prix 3 Sadly I can not use Debug mode without GPxpatch crashing. Never have been able to. I might try the newer version of Gpxpatch to see if that makes a difference.

Grand Prix 3 Hi all
I am in the middle of setting up for a 1998 CART season. I have all the tracks I need except gateway (no loss). Some track are better then others, but I have them all working except Homestead by 'Smoking Pen'. It CTDs just before it finishes loading. Has anyone else has problems with it in the past but got it working in the end? All referring to 1.13.

Grand Prix 3 Hi Ettore
Check your email for 36 alternative Jam files for your F1 1985 pack.
If you or anyone is every looking for a photo to help with making any kind of jam just ask. I have literally thousands of books, DVD and magazines collected over 30 years and can normally find what I need when making an item.
Happy racing.
