Can`t wait to get my hands on your version
The video you posted was one with original track though I suppose

Thank you Maxx! Sorry I put the bad link. It is correct now.

You`re welcome and it looks fantastic. There are worlds between vanilla version and yours, will be interesting if you manage to get dosbox into trouble with that one

Thanks!
I made that with dosbox ECE so I think it would be okay even if it is better with a real dos or win9x environment.

It works very good in my virtual Win XP and dfend-reloaded
from time to time I copy the whole GP2 folder to a native WinXP machine, where GP2 runs naturally and it surely will work.
I did some laps and it is a fun to drive, awesome job as usual. Thanks, for that, really serious quality. Even the palm in Loews-hairpin my dad loves is there
Just a small suggestion, it would be awesome to have a switchable sky/horizon like in your Phoenix 91 version. I think this would make the version even better.

Happy to read your comment! It was a long and hard work... It is quite funny to drive in Monte-Carlo near the sea with a blue sky it is better. Of course
I add some files for that.

It is indeed amazing! Fantastic track and thanks for the time spent to make it.
The view at the Swimming-pool is breathtaking...almost like watching an old tape from the period!
I have a good laptop although now quite old and I still use normal DOSBOX, but for me the speed was perfect from the cockpit...from the TV cameras sometimes slow but not too much.
Many thanks again!

Yes, thanks for fast including the "friendlier" horizon. I really like that version and will happily use it for the classic ready to race seasons I already have and most likely also for the 2nd season of my personal carset, where I only include the circuits or versions of them I like most.
It is great to have still people like you investing time in a very old game with a small community (but both rock of course
). I am really grateful for this

May I raise another suggestion? If you adapt the zoom-rate of camera 6, the loews section would be even more as seen on TV.
In the Example I used factor 500 instead of 2324:
GP2 seems to have problems with overlays, maybe that`s the reason you went for higher zoom-rate?
EDIT:
Using Factor 600 looks very nice for the palm:

You're welcome ! Camera positions in this game are great. I like set up it.

Thanks for your suggestion ! It was a really difficult part of the track and I don't know how make it perfect. When you are in the first part of the hairpin you don't see (Some objects disapear...) the rest. Maybe with 0xc5.

Yes, that`s true. This section pushes GP2 to its limits it seems
