I have made a higher cockpit view for the GPLEA Lotus. I also stretched (ouch) the driver's body so the head doesn't seem to be floating around so badly. :) I can email this to everyone who wants it and if there's more interest I can add it to my page, too. For editing the 3do file I used Gilles Benoit's 'RZ13 and RZ22 Objects positions editor' and Dave Noonan's 3DOEd. Both should be available from The Pits. Ps.

Does anyone know what editor I need in order to raise the in-car cockpit view higher?Also is this very hard to do?I have checked MVgauges already but the lotus isnt done yet for the GPLEA Lotus.I wanna give this a try anyway .

Ok guys, I will update my site later tonight when (if) I get confirmation from GPLEA guys to post their modified 3do files. If not, I will at least post the 3do files for the other non-GPLEA cars. - Greger http://www.kolumbus.fi/ghuttu/

Please put all the higher cockpit views on your site.When a super fast guy(you) states that he uses the higher view it wil make everyone download them.Yes you can email them to me for now:)Oh and by the way can you also send me that traction patch you made:) On Wed, 14 Jun 2000 19:01:41 GMT, [email hidden] (Greger Huttu) wrote:

Greger, Thanks for the higher cockpit view for the GPLEA Lotus. I've gotten quite use to using the higher cockpit views. So when I installed the new Lotus I had to use the original cockpit view. I found it difficult to "see" down the track, but now I can really enjoy the new Lotus. Joel Willstein [email hidden]

Yes, I know what you mean. When I first tried these higher cockpit views it took me quite a long time to get used to them. But now I wouldn't go back. :) - Greger http://www.kolumbus.fi/ghuttu/

It doesn't help me really, but worse the feeling of driving was different, it felt like I was standing on the Lotus! Well, it was worth the try. Andre > > - Greger > http://www.kolumbus.fi/ghuttu/

Thank you Greger.I also wanna thank you for the setups you have on your site.Some of them are brilliant.The Brabham-nurburgring is my favorite and I can concentrate on the lines for each corner muuuch better now. Thanks again. On Fri, 16 Jun 2000 16:56:19 -0300, "Joel Willstein" <[email hidden]> wrote:
