Hi all! Yesterday, i tried the new gp2ccptc, but i could'nt understand how it works. The readme text says, that the informations about the colours of the ***pit a. o. is stored in the gp2ccptc.bmp (when you zoom in it ?!). But this bmp is empty, so i don't know, how i can change the colours by using this file. After i changed the teams of benetton and ferrari (Alesi is much too strong), it's really boring, when i jump into one of this***pits that the colours are wrong. If someone knows how to use this utility, please tell me how. Thanks in advance, Armin

Hi Basically, when you zoom into the .bmp with a graphics program (PSP works OK as does Photoshop etc.) At 16x zoom, you will see one black strip. This, as mentioned in the readme file, represents the colours for all the teams. This strip is composed of 3x14 pixels. Each team (in the order discussed in the manual)represents one row. Each column represents the portion painted. (1st column is***pit, 2nd is the mirrors, 3rd wing...something like that - check readme) Using the finest `brush' possible, you can paint each pixel the colour you want. A big problem here is that you will have to use the darkest shade of whatever colour you want, or else the***pit colours will look very ... psychedelic .. in the game. ie. the Ferrari will require a dary scarlet shade. Mclarens required a gray colour etc. Then, you run the .exe file (after removing the f1gstate.sav file). If all is well, it will say `done !' You can then restart GP2 (without the .sav file, please)and hopefully enjoy the new***pits. And partner Schumi in a RED Ferrari***pit ;-) If you have any problems, let me know and I'll e-mail you my finished .bmp file. I had BIG problems with getting the right Jordan colour (it was either shit or green... no gold) so it was left black (just like this year's anyway. Cheers Stanley Janjusevic Djordje
