DESCRIPTION
An editor for use with the Formula One Grand Prix or World Circuit
game (published by MicroProse Software). It is very easy to use,
with a standard 2.0 look graphical user interface (even on KS 1.x!)
and on-line help should you need it.
Allows you to alter most of the in-game setup, including computer
car performance, car/helmet/pitcrew colours, car fragility and many
other things (and I MEAN many!). Sound samples can also be replaced,
cockpit graphics changed, and lap records and setups printed.
Changes can be saved directly to a copy of the game which is running
in memory, or to the main file used by the game for a more permanent
change.
Also incorporated in the main program are a number of memory patches,
including Toni Wilen's GPPatch and Grant Reeve's PatchF1GP.
F1GP-Ed breathes new life into an ageing, but excellent game. 1994,
1995, 1996 and 1997 sample datafiles supplied for those who don't
want to mess about with all the options.
The program itself is auto-enhancing, which means that it will run
on a basic A500 with KS 1.2, but will make use of KS 2.x or KS 3.x
specific routines on suitable machines to make itself even better.
Supported languages:
English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Danish, Swedish,
Finnish, Norwegian and Czech.
NEW FEATURES
F1GP-Ed 3.35 is a bug-fix release - here are the new features from
the previous version which was released a week before this one:
o Updated f1gp.library (now V35.4): New patch will make F1GP take notice
of the VBR on systems which normally use it - this means that if you
usually have to disable the VBR to get F1GP to work, then you no longer
need to do so
o The Amiga's audio filter can now be set to your preferred setting
whenever you play the game
o It is now possible to have wet practice and qualifying sessions
o Added a new multiplayer patch which makes player cars indestructible
when the computer is driving them. This is grouped with the "Fix Speed
Problems" patch (previously named "Multiplayer Fix")
o The position of the GPPatch HUD can now be preset
o Lap records can now be loaded and mixed with the current records
o Shortcut "Today" button provided in the lap record editor
o Improved "Less cars in races" patch
o Lots of important bug fixes
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
Formula One Grand Prix or World Circuit game by Geoff Crammond,
published commercially originally by MicroProse Software.
Approximately 1.5Mb of free ram needed to load the game and the
editor to be able to use the memory patches. But, the editor
itself and most of the features will work on machines with less
memory.
