GPL and CART

6 posts by 6 people · 05 Oct 1999 - 06 Oct 1999

Why doesn't someone make a editor for GPL that would be able to modify, at least roughly, some of the physics of the car, including weight and a try to include something like downforce, and a carshape converter so we could use the CART carshape for racing in GPL? That way, and with the track convertor we're expecting, we could simulate very well CART racing. It's a SHAME that Papy doesn't make a new version for ICR2/CART. I love CART racing.

If Papy or anyone is reading. Add me to the list. CART2000 pronto with the GPL engine. dave henrie

There is a 1968 season carset out with wings. But the physics engine is unchanged,as the cars handle exactly the same. The problem is that it is almost impossible to break the programing code used in GPL. Joel Willstein
