the flow of time in gp2
the flow of time in gp2
so recently I went into all of the tracks (all 16) and switched the race and qualifying "timing" factor in the magic data to 16384. I wanted to have the time flow realistically without any modification. Just for a test today I actually measured a lap time on the screen in the game and compared that to a real life stop watch. There is a huge difference. I never noticed this. A lap around Monaco with the magic data set at 16384 takes that CC cars about 1m16s on the middle level difficulty, but in reality, this is about 1m00s on the stop watch!
Is there anything we can do to correct this? I would like the game to be as real as possible.

Re: the flow of time in gp2
I guess that's a tricky one.
I made the same test at Montreal with timing 16384 and it ran exactly the correct time.
I remember when changing from Win98 to WinXP and it ruined the timing completely. Since most of us run it in DosBox I guess differences can happen from system to system.
The only in-game things that I know that affect timing are Magic Data, Frame Rate and PO. But PO should only make the game slower, never faster. Are you running it at the maximum in-game frame rate (25.6fps)? Is your DosBox frameskip value set to zero?
I once ran GP2 inside VirtualBox with Win98 and it was very fast (but I gave up on it because the VB frame rate wasn't constant).

Re: the flow of time in gp2
Frameskip is zero, in-menu game FPS is max at 25.6. I spent a few hours over the weekend testing different settings but the results are consistent on every track. With Magic data timing values set at 16384 (nominal) 1m0S of real time = about 1m16s of GP2 time.
Re: the flow of time in gp2
I think something is off with your DosBox because I don't have such issue here, you would probably need a number around 21000 or less to fix it idk. Maybe vsync is turned on?
I had similar problems under WinXp and VDMA, but never with DOSBox.

Re: the flow of time in gp2
Hi,
The time seems to run correctly in DOSBox SVN Daum, as opposed to the standard DOSBox version.
It fixed the problem of the time running too fast in the game, at least for me.

Re: the flow of time in gp2
I can confirm that.
I've been using DOSBox SVN Daum but I didn't think it made any difference. After installing the standard DosBox version, I get the same timing problems.

Strange-I will have to try this today. I only have 2 games I play (Indycar Racing 2 by Papyrus and GP2) ICR2 never had this problem with the "original" dosbox.F1GParchive wrote: ↑19.04.2019, 00:53Hi,

Is this a 32bit version? <--------------- EDIT: I see that it is 32 now.
I am using linux mint
I downloaded the 7z file, and extracted it. I changed the folder and all files permissions to "executable".
I went into my terminal and tried to run it with "./dosbox" in the folder everything was extracted to. I get this error..

Re: the flow of time in gp2
So I spent all day (literally, all day!) trying to get this to work.
No dice.
I gave up on the linux version, so I downloaded the windows version. I got it to work in my windows 7, I checked the time and it was perfect like you guys said.
Then I tried to get my steering wheel and pedals to work and they won't calibrate properly. I tried "timed=false" and "timed=true" in the settings but it won't calibrate or even work properly in the windows version. I have a logitech driving force gt wheel and pedal set. I installed the software for windows and when I go into the logitech gaming software it appears to work perfect in windows. When I go into GP2 to calibrate the wheel and pedals inside of the game it just jumps around everywhere, the pedals don't even seem to be showing up.
I am frustrated beyond belief right now. I feel like I wasted my entire day.

Re: the flow of time in gp2
UPDATE - Dosbox ECE works the same as DAUM as well. I could not figure out how to sucessfully install either in linux so I tried them in win 7.
Both time correct.
Steering wheel and pedals don't work in either. So I'm still not any better off.

Re: the flow of time in gp2
Do either of you that use dosbox SVN DAUM use a steering wheel and pedals? If so, did you have similar problems? what wheel and pedals do you use?
Re: the flow of time in gp2
Hello, I have the same problem with svn-daum when I manage my xbox 360 controller... I don't know how it works. However, I can play with it. Currently, I play on win 7 64 bits with an original configuration of GP2 in Ace mode without helps (f2 and f7 off too) and after Hockenheim I am Alesi in second position 3 points behind Schumacher. So I think it is playable with a steering wheel too..

What do you mean- you have the same problem with the "jittery" steering and calibration?Michael82 wrote: ↑20.04.2019, 08:55Hello, I have the same problem with svn-daum when I manage my xbox 360 controller...

Re: the flow of time in gp2
I use the keyboard only for gp2 (I never liked driving with the steering wheel in GPx games like I do with newer sims). I have an old logitech momo I'll give it a try tonight.
