GPL's Lotus: Too "Light Green?"

by John P. Wilso » Tue, 06 Oct 1998 04:00:00

Hello, everyone.

I was wondering if anyone else out there found the Lotus 49 in Grand Prix
Legends to be too light of a green.  What is it, WinMIP?  The utility I use
to repaint a car?  I suppose I would extract LOTUS.DAT, and use WinMIP to
convert the car's textures (Hill's, Clark's, and the player's) to a editable
image?  Does anyone have good experience using this?

Thanks for any help, and how's a 1:08.09 at the Glen?  On my 10th lap ever,
and I hadn't even raced in the demo (had Windows 98, and somehow missed all
the "this-is-how-to-get-it-to-work-in-Windows-98" help.  Although, it was
after running about 20 laps at Monza to get me confortable with the Lotus
(in all its lime green glory).  But I do love the Glen.  I have the replay
for anyone interested.  It's using the default setup with a few camber and
tire pressure modifications.  Next to the differential, the tires are the
most important thing to helping you corner quickly and with minimal hassle.
