This worked even without dxwnd surprisingly but one thing I'd like to know is how on earth did you win the constructors with Jordan in 98?

When I run with Jordan I always use a couple of set-up points on weather for Hill. If it rains it ends up basically being a guaranteed win, I think there were a fair few wet races and a lot of retirements. Was a freak season
I also forgot, the updates that were worked on mean you can run without dxwnd. Races should run but a little slower than on XP.
Think handling calulation formula was changed from something like 20% per ability the TD has.
To a mixture of 70/30 of TD vs CD and a weighting based on previous position and then a random number. Basically makes it really difficult to dominate.

I would also say the updated handling base means Jordan start a little closer to Benetton and Williams, whereas in base game they were always miles off.
I've got the latest editor too if you're interested. Changes handling performance curve etc. Think the values recommended had been tested a lot to try and replicate real season.

Here's the editor feat. all the incredible work veedub managed to do. www.mediafire.com/file/mlzki859r3vqx0u/Application_Files.zip/file ignore the GPW file in there, just some random 98 update i had, its older than the updated version I included in last upload. Run the setup first. Don't bother pressing "upgrade game" as .exe i gave you is already upgraded. tab you'll probably be most interested in is the game exe editor, allows you to change driver stats etc. Configure game allows you to change scoring system (which i believe I tested and does affect save game, so you can run to 2003 with old points then change to 10-8-6) Have fun |

The "Gpw Patch" patches the save game of your choice and you can set the contract lenghts you desire for drivers and staff. For example Schumacher contract with Ferrari until 2006 or Andrian Newey with Mclaren until 2005 etc. |

Ohhh that’s not GPW patch, you mean the save game editor, I have that lying around can upload - not sure you can change contract lengths though
I’ve never got why you’d want history to be exactly the same though haha

Hi there! I have a problem about installing 1994 season to GPW. It says Larrousse, Simtek and Pacific teams in extra folder; how can i open them in my game? The patch is successfully doing its job (at least it says that) but the teams couldn't open in the game? Help please.

Only 11 teams are programmed into the game unlike GPM1 and GPM2. They don't work where they are located, after installing the season update.
Copy the files inside "one" of the extra teams folder into the GPW directory you installed the 1994 season to replace the 11th team. |

But anyway, if there's nothing to do we can enjoy from it absolutely, there is a big labor in the end. At least we remember with mercy and gratitude Senna and Ratzenberger. I'mma replace Simtek exactly. Thank you so much for your efforts dear simul810 |

Playing as Minardi. Anyone else seeing a bug where paying drivers are actually costing the amount they should be giving? As such you are bankrupt as Minardi after 2 races  |

As such you are bankrupt as Minardi after 2 races Make sure that your drivers contract salary is in red color with the minus symbol in front. Otherwise they are not paid drivers. |

Yeah they are (it's the Minardi starting drivers). Guess no one else is seeing this then? Odd! I'll play as Jordan for now |
