Im sick of waiting for the pitboard to come up in gpl to show me my lap
times
Is there a utility to allow for F1 type digital lap imformation running in
game?
I would make hot lapping so much more fun.
Cheers
Phil

I don't think anyone ever came up with coordinates for all the tracks. Or
did they? I never saw a solution for Watkins Glen for instance. Someone
posted pitboard coordinates for only about half the tracks I think, and they
were using trial and error to figure out the rest, unless I missed
something.

pit_board = 9.0 250.0 -100.0 100.0
Mexico
pit_board = 6.4 221.6 -100.0 100.0
Monza
pit_board = 21.0 275.0 -100.0 100.0
Silverstone
pit_board = 7.0 259.0 -100.0 100.0
Using that line of reasoning you're in danger of falling into the DGF
conundrum which inevitably leads to "have you ever driven a 67 F1 car?"
Personally I think it's fine to mess with everything in GPL except driving
model.
That doesn't mean I wouldn't like a mod to add some downforce and make the
tyres wider, but that way lies madness, especially for online racing.
Why's that guy half a lap ahead after 1 lap? :-)

P.S. Before I get raided by the grammar police : )
I know my spelling and grammar are terrible.
Sometimes makes me wish I paid more attention at
school.

For fun.
Editing 3Do.
Graphically, yes. Physics, no.
It can get worse <g>

LOL. In the U.S. people will pay money to watch cars like that crush
regular 1967 GP cars.

Hey Mark, glad you got some new gear and look forward to seeing you
online. Don't know if it's of any help but I realized that when you use
SpyGirl to make extract Spots for syncronizing replays, it generates a
number for the exact point where you raised your arm to mark the spot
and then records it in SpyGirl.ini under the track name. If these are
the same numbers that are used in the Track.ini files it might be a
useful way of finding the number for the pitboard spot, just a thought.
