Gp2 special xp problem
Hi!
I have to say first, my english isn't very good:(
I have problem when i want to start gp2 in xp. I done the tutorial, i run eith vmd sound, but always crash:
16 bites ms-dos:
vdms lanchpad-gp2lap
The NTVDM cpu illegal instruction
cs:00000 ip:0075 op:f0 00 f0 37 05
What i have to do?

Try dosbox, it doesn`t work with gp2lap, but better than nothing

Hi!
Yes i understand, but i want to play with gp2lap, because i want to play in online with my brother. And when i want to play with my brother computer it works. I can1_t belive it because he has xp sp2 too like in my computer.
The other problem is i want to play with keyboared but without steering help... is it possible?

Download: "Two utilities for Microprose GP2"
KBDSTEER.EXE allows disabling Steering help and Opposite lock when playing using the default
keyboard settings
Re: Gp2 special xp problem
I encountered the same prob, on my PC (without regular MS updates or internet connection) VDM-Sound works perfectly. on the notebook with the most recent updates not. I switched to SP3, but it didn`t work with SP2 as well.
Another possibility is to set up a virtual win 98 machine, in there all should run great

Re: Gp2 special xp problem
I'm installing Win98se in an old HD. It will be perfect for GP2 and GP3.
Re: Gp2 special xp problem
instead of opening up a new thread i will just post it here cause i question like mine has been asked. what i want to know is can kbdsteer be used in dosbox. i try and load it but i canot choose an option. Is there a way i can? or is there another way i can edit a gp2 file or a setting to disable the steerhelp? thanks
Re: Gp2 special xp problem
The program works in DosBox normally (have you checked the usage options in the text file that comes with the zip?).
However, it looks like it had no practical effect on my game.

Re: Gp2 special xp problem
Hi thanks for the quick reply. Yes i have looked in the readme. I have ran it in dosbox but you cannot choose an option. I think its one of the old dos programs that you used to run and then you chose an option then the program applies it and then closes. Dosbos only runs the program and then goes to back to the main directory folder waiting for the next command inside the gp2 folder.
Re: Gp2 special xp problem
The usage is something like "c:>kbdsteer 0"
Then it displays a message and it's done, your GP2 is patched. You need to start gp2 manually after this.

I've tested it here and this time it worked.treadrubber wrote: ↑09.04.2020, 11:34Same here, KBDSTEER has no effect on the game. Running all in dosbox (I've tried the ECE version too).
I put kbdsteer.exe in my GP2 folder, then from dosbox I go to my GP2 folder (i.e. cd c:/gp2), type kbdsteer 0 and hit enter. kbdsteer 1, kbdsteer 2 and kbdsteer 3 all worked.
But the game is totally unplayable with the keyboard if the steering help is off.
