Wet racing anyone?

6 posts by 6 people · 18 Jul 1999 - 19 Jul 1999

I think this should be possible, maybe Dave Noonan, Brian Fox or even Matt Knutsen could take a part in it. I'd like to see GPL wet racing. Now I think the GPL grip is contained within the TRK file or each track? would it be possible to reduce the grip level? Also if this was possible, could someone like Matt or Arne Martin (or even myself) create darker textures to simulate wet conditions? Cloudy sky's etc? I have metioned this before, but Brands Hatch is very slippery, how about some wet weather textures and skies guys? Tim "Wet weather" Wheatley.
It's always raining at Brands Hatch in real life, so it's not much of a simulator!! DOUG Tee Hee Then again - same with S'stone Doug, Again

I agree it should be possible, the TPTCC has been running wet toruing car races for 2 years now with grey skies and VERY slick tracks. Shouldn't be much of a leap to do the same in gpl. dave henrie

Ugh, Amen to that. Always raining or drizzling over there across the pond in England.

Interestingly, Brands Hatch has never had a 'wet' Grand Prix. so its not always raining at Brands wasn't when i was there a couple of weeks ago either rob
