GP2 Forum

today I confirmed sometimes they come and go during the weekend sessions. One session they may be there, and the next gone, next back, and so on. It is seeminly random if they will appear or not. Very strange.

I don't know about you guys, but every time I try and learn a new track that I've never driven on before I'm really sloppy for a few hours until I learn the track. Braking markers and finding my racing line are imperative so I can get a good 'flow' around. Today I was trying to learn the 1978 dijon ...

I can't really tell for sure and I couldn't reproduce the problem with that version of the track. You know what, you won't believe it.... I re-loaded the track, went into gp2 with gp2lap and the problem was gone. 61 laps right like I changed it. Strange. Either I am getting old and foolish or this ...

I'm having some problems. Here is the track in notepad: https://i.imgur.com/ypdOa99.png Here is the track in the hex editor. https://i.imgur.com/Y0pS8Fn.png I'm not sure which addresses to change to EF. It looks like the number of laps is set to 61 (which is what i want), however when search for ano...

There is a common bug in the track editor that makes it save the GP2INFO section twice. Then when it try to change it saves correctly but the "extra" section is not deleted and it creates confusion for GP2Lap. It is easy to check by opening the .dat file in Notepad. You will see some repeated info....

I am trying to correct the number of laps in the old RIO track i downloaded. In real life, they raced 61 laps here. I have found that this track works best in slot-5 (which is the original spain). I use GP2LAP so normally GP2 sets the number of laps correctly when i place a fan-made track into a slo...

I tried to use GIMP described in the process above for GP2, and the colors worked right but for some reason when I load the finished BMP into gp2edit it cuts up the positioning of the file wrong and it puts the parts of the car in the wrong locations... strange. What I do is finish my work in GIMP, ...

BTW, so, that mean, that I can design in GIMP? 'cause doing everything in an outdated MS Paint is extremely hard... In my experience, GIMP won't generate files with the correct palette. So I design in GIMP, then copy the final image and paste it over a GP2 bmp with the old MS Paint. I suppose you c...

FYI all - you can save your modified magic data as a file, and upload it wherever you want- or save it for later use if you need to go back and forth between original and home-made tracks.

I agree... it just seems like I remember enjoying the perfect grand prix tracks when i was a kid. When this came out and I installed it- I thought it was like Magic.

back on topic (perfect grand prix)

Does anyone know if the tracks included in perfect grand prix are better than sister versions in the download section?

.... is there something I can change in the magic data to fix this?

Trial and error with the magic data.... share us your results...

awesome- I'm going to use it in my next 80s season. thank you!

So from a "track shape" point of view this is the same track as F1 drove in the 1986 Austria GP?

I always get confused with the different names for the tracks in Austria.
