GP2 - Raised nose?

Hi, Does anyone knows if there is a car set that has raised nose car jams? Most of the current ones have "low" nose... Thanks Andre

: Hi, : Does anyone knows if there is a car set that has raised nose car : jams? Most of the current ones have "low" nose... : Thanks : Andre -- You'd think, with all the amazing work being done on GP2 editors, that somebody could find a way to raise all of the car noses in the game. It would be even better if there were a way to convert the low nose cars into "shark nose" cars like the Benetton, Ferrari, and Ligier. The Williams and Mclaren, in reality and in the game, are different in the fact that they have mid-height raised noses. Does any knowledgable individual out there know if any of these changes are possible?

Yep, they are possible, try visiting .... easyweb.easynet. co.uk/~nbaker/ Its a F1GP2 web site with lots of utilities for new graphics, etc, and I am sure I saw a utility to change the front ends too!!!!! d:~) **Peter** #:?) "Beep, beep......." .

This is built into the coding of the game and so there would have to be a utility to switch between low nose and high nose. I haven't come across a utility that does this, but someone ought to do it. After all, all the cars are high nose now and look likely to stay that way next year 'cos of the problem of getting air onto the rear surfaces of the car and into the high narrow sidepods they have now. The high noses cause less turbulence of the air from the front to the back. James Long

Doh!! There are about three or four around. I'm using Andrzej Barganski's editor for Win3.1, the new version is 1.1 It's all over the web, just use a search engine! Jeff

Just go to Pieter's Home Page The best in the west.... here's the adress http://cervino.vol.it/GP2/ Happy racing John

I also wanted high nosed cars. I used Andrzej Barganski's editor, It came up with the original names and such when I told it to extract from the game. I set all the cars to high nose and told it to save. The thing worked and I didn't have to redo all the names and paint ect.. I am one happy camper now! Thanks to all who helped me and sent e-mail.

The main reason high noses are used in F1 is to increase downforce by increasing the front wing's surface area. The high noses create a HIGHER amount of drag than the low noses did, but the teams need every bit of downforce they can get with current downsized wings. Also, it IS possible to change noses. I've been using Barganski's GP2 editor without a hitch for some time now. Martin Nigel Mansell RIP!

That is the editor I used to switch my noses to high noses. I extracted the information and nothing changed. I went a head and switched each teams nose to high configuration and told it to pach the game. When I ran the game I did not need to re load anything: dirvers, helmets, nor cars. All cars had high noses. The only glitch was that the alfa car has black wing supports. No problem as there is no real alfa car. Try it anyway the most you may have to do is to re patch the 96 carset. James Dean Cory D.C.

go to pieter's gp2 page at http://cervino.vol.it/gp2 he's got it all there.
