GP2 How can I remove trees?

7 posts by 6 people · 25 Feb 1998 - 28 Feb 1998

The trackside trees in GP2 especially at Hockenheim, Imola, Monza and Spa really slow down the framerate. Ofcourse I can turn them off using the "ALT D" details toggle but that also means I lose stuff like houses, track adverts, cranes, grandstands etc. This is unacceptable for me. I've removed the tree jams from the gamejams directory but that just leaves huge swathes of grey walls all around the track where the trees used to be. So this is an unacceptable solution too. So, how do I remove the trees, and the grey walls and at the same time keep the other details.? Charles

I can't remember the exact files, but there are certain files which can be deleted to speed things up. I think I mentioned this in my Hockenheim track guide which you can find on Pieter's / Sjon's GP2 page. Hang on <sound of rummaging on hard disk>, okay here is the paragraph... "A final tip. You want a little extra speed by removing the trees, but turning down the detail removes the buildings too? Well, try moving the files t_monsp1.jam, t_monsp2.jam & t_monsp3.jam to a temporary directory. Your "trees" may look a little funny, more like a race around the streets of New York or Tokyo, but it will speed things up!" Have fun, John

Although some of the other people who responded think this is a stupid question, it ISN'T any more since the track editor is making progress! Don't know whether it already supports removal of objects, but if it doesn't yet, it certainly will in the (not so distant) future.
