I didn´t know about you plan to remake all the 1994 tracks. That would be amazing!
Of course it will take time but we can wait and looking at the quality of the final "product" it will be for sure worth the wait.

I was also thinking you could be the only one to have edited so many aspects of the game (not only tracks, but also carsets, carshapes, sounds, menu screens, fuel editor) and you have always excelled in all of the areas, very rare!

yeah the vanilla montreal was really bad because the chicane was so fast on the back side. Probably the next worst track is Spa with the bus stop chicane being way to fast as well. We already have a good Monaco now.

Very nice 1994 mod. I really love it.

I do have one issue though: when using this mod, the numbers on the cars are not shown. Instead I see some kind of blurry square where the number should be.

Anybody else have this visual issue?

Are you sure you have the most "recent" version installed? Should be this one https://grandprix2.de/Util/gp2edit/gp2edit.html

Also make sure when you export the carset to tick all the Car Set Datas.

I hope it gets solved

so previously I only took a lap or so around the track, and today I started preparing for a full 100% length race at the 91-93 version of Michael's Montreal.

Although I "know the track" from original gp2- it only somewhat carries over to the new version. The realism and accuracy is so good, but it just points out to how many other things are inaccurate with the original gp2 tracks. It's funny how the original tracks needed a time-stretch feature to get the lap times realistic (time flows faster) and on Michael's tracks (at least I know for sure Montreal and Monaco) this really isn't mostly needed. My gp2 magic data for time is set to 16410 here which is very close to a 100% true time of 16384. I ask myself why? The other corners are realistic speeds. The first time I took the hairpin in Michael's version it was down around 35-40mph, where in vanilla gp2 the hairpin is around 50-55mph if I can remember correctly. When i watch the onboard footage in the 1994 eurosport TV coverage I see speeds much more like I get at Michael's version of the track.

Besides that I was able to use my vanilla Montreal setup and it seems to be somewhat close. After doing about 40 laps I got very quick and smooth, it just takes a while to adjust my braking points and find new ones.

The hardest place for me to get a good placemarker is going into the hairpin. I find I have to brake about half-way between the 50 and 100 markers.

One thing that I was very pleasantly surprised with is the CC line. The CC cars seem to be fast where I am, and slow where I am. At some tracks I always notice I am faster in some places and much slower in others.

Great job Michael - do you have plans to do the 1996 and newer version (with the casino straight?) This would be an easy one to do I would assume. What about the early 80s version with the pits near the hairpin?
