GP3 2000 Cockpit Perspective

Just bought GP3 2000 and greatly enjoying it, but I wondered whether it is possible to change the 'in cockpit' view ie sitting further back in the cockpit? Also, but not so important, are there any cockpit add ons for GP3 2000 that add 'hands' and maybe even 'legs' to the cockpit view? Thanks PJ

In regular GP3, at least in the menu options, you can't change the viewpoint location. You can change the view angle up to what? 140 degrees? It works well. -- Pat Dotson Paul Jager wrote: > > Just bought GP3 2000 and greatly enjoying it, but I wondered whether it is > possible to change the 'in cockpit' view ie sitting further back in the > cockpit? > > Also, but not so important, are there any cockpit add ons for GP3 2000 that > add 'hands' and maybe even 'legs' to the cockpit view? > > Thanks > > PJ

This option is greyed out (using hardware mode) so not sure what to do. PJ "Pat Dotson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

It works for me in hardware mode. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers> "Paul Jager" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:YdDo7.18989$[email hidden]... > This option is greyed out (using hardware mode) so not sure what to do. > > PJ > > "Pat Dotson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:[email hidden]... > > In regular GP3, at least in the menu options, you can't > > change the viewpoint location.

Better this way than the WSC way..... Microprose is living up to their own announcements, with the 1.13 patch and now the update. Gives me confidence for GP4 next year. Bart Westra

The only way GP4 can be a good simulation is if Geoff Crammond decides to stop being lazy and dumps his whole assembler-coded game engine, starting from scratch. Any future title using the decade-old game engine is bound to be full of problems related to it's core. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimato Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...
