INTERMEDIATE-TIMES DURING GP2-RACE??????

4 posts by 3 people · 01 Nov 1998 - 01 Nov 1998

Hi there, for some (to me) unknown reason they (MICROPROSE) removed the intermediate time-display during a GP2-race. Why? Now there is only one gap-time that is displayed: the gap on start/finish. It would be good to also get the other two intermediate gap-times displayed. Does anyone of you know if there is a patch out there that can solve this?

Have you tried to hit the "G" during the race,...then you can see the gap between the driver in front and on your "Tail" during the whole race! Except on the first lap out of the pits or during the first racing lap!

Ruud, I know that, but what I mean is the actual gap, not the gap on start/finish. This gap should be updated (and viewed) when passing the two time traps (intermediate points). Now GP2 only calculates the difference on start/finish. That the G key is able to show this gap is nice, but it is an old (start/finish)value and not the actual gap on the two time traps. So in fact there should be three gaps displayed: one on start/finish (they DID implement this one) but also two for each intermediate trap (they did NOT implement this). My question: is there a fix for this?
