(GP2) Possible to edit driver info?

4 posts by 4 people · 25 Jul 1996 - 27 Jul 1996

Seems to me that David Coulthard wins too many races, and Michael Schumacher is not winning enough. Is there a way to switch the performance values for these two drivers? I would assume that since I am on about a straight swap, it shouldn't mess up any checksums or anything, it should simply be a case of finding the right numbers to switch. Anyone done any hacking in this direction yet? regards, Paul. *********************************************************************** * Paul L.

This might succeed... BTW, the checksum algorithm used in GP2 seems to be same as in old F1GP, it floats in webspace on some of the F1GP util pages. I think the bigger problem when making utilities (TSRs) , stems from GP2's use of DOS extender (or did GP1 use one ?).

Well, it's not really hacking, but if you replace Coultherd's name with Ayrton Senna, then his performance seems about right :) Julian _____________________________________________________________________ University of Oxford

I too noticed that Coultard was winning to many races. To remedy this, I simply changed his name....to Aryton Senna!! Now it seems a little more realistic.... says...
