I can't say for sure, as I haven't got the game yet, but my guess is that they probably didn't have enough time to do it properly. Thomas / FrenZy ;-) NotAtHome <[email hidden]> skrev i en nyhedsmeddelelse:[email hidden]...

Ok so I am being pedantic I just got a downer on GP3 at the moment In the manual there are plans of the circuits but isnt the plan for Imola the exact same plan from GP2 maual doesnt it look diffrent now ? (and in '98) more imortant to get it right in the game I know I am just suprised that they did not match the plans in the manual to the plans in the game

Dont worry, Imola is correct in the game. It's just something tipical for the GP serries. If I remember correctly, the GP2 manual also had some wrong trackplans, the Estorilcircuit didnt have that slowchicane in the manual allthough it was in the game. Wouldnt be suprised if the GP4 manual had the old Monza chicane in it :-) Cheers, JeDa NotAtHome <[email hidden]> schreef in berichtnieuws [email hidden]...

These track maps are probably from 1991!

Yeah, only 4 years. Takes an awful lot of time to make a bitmap of a track I guess. The Barcelone picture is still displaying the pre-1994 layout.... My guess: Geoff and co don't give shit about all you guys who love F1 simulation. Im glad I tried (and deleted) the warez version.

Nah, I'm still looking forward to getting it. I've even gone to extreme measures and reinstalled GP2 to run Detroit and Phoenix... They truly rock! Karl Zosel <[email hidden]> skrev i en nyhedsmeddelelse:3WHg5.45683$[email hidden]...

There's also the obligatory typo in the manual. IIRC, the GP2 manual mentioned a Mike Hakkinen. GP3 manual has an Oliver Panis. Minor details, but it's pretty sloppy work. I'd be looking for a new job if I released work with simple factual errors like that in it. -Nick JeDa <[email hidden]> wrote:
