Is it possible to disable auto-blip when downshifting in GPL? I broke a spring in my RS Shifter so I'm stuck using the wheel buttons to shift for the time being. But now GPL is auto-blipping for me during downshift even with the Act-Labs Shifter utility running. The auto-blip is disrupting my flow and make me feel like I'm playing F1-2002. Thanks for your help.

Yes, manual de-clutching should disable the downshift blip.

Is there a place to change this in an .ini file? There's nothing in the menus and I don't see anything about auto-clutch in player.ini or core.ini... Jason On Tue, 08 Oct 2002 11:19:47 GMT, "Steve Smith" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Thanks for your help. I think if you run the GPShift utility (JSJ's, I think its called) that actually patches GPL, the autoblip is removed by default. You may even be able to control it via an INI file - the latest shift patch has all sorts of options for changing FOV and multiple angles of head-turn that I haven't even tried. Don't have the URL - post if you can't find it. HTH, Kendt

In the GPL "Sound & Gameplay" options screen, there are three driver aid options: Automatic Shifting Braking Help Throttle Help There is no auto clutch option in the menus. The option is also not in the core.ini, app.ini, or player.ini, and it's not mentioned in the manual either, which mentions quite a few other features that never made the final release. So where is it? I thought it needed a hack to enable a manual clutch. Malc.

my mistake, it's in nascar4 where you have the auto-clutch option. Sorry Sebastien TIXIER - Game Developer Dynamics and Car Physics http://www.eden-studios.fr GPLRank Normal:-44.24 Monster:-124.44

Here's the link: http://home.worldonline.dk/7471000/ Have no idea how it'll work without a shifter, but once you've gotten rid of the auto-blip anything else just feels like cheating... :-) Mark Reading, UK
